Favorite Albums of 2009 9 of 10

Rural Alberta Advantage - In the Summertime
The Rural Alberta Advantage released their first album, "Hometowns", this year and it's probably one of the most overlooked albums in the blogosphere. This album has really impressed me. It has just about everything you'll want in a great album; great hooks, a good singer, and excellent lyrics. Then what's even more [...]

The Rural Alberta Advantage – In the Summertime

The Rural Alberta Advantage – In the Summertime Today's song is another gorgeous effort from Toronto's The Rural Alberta Advantage . In the Summertime is the closing track from the indie-rock trio's debut full-length album Hometowns , independently released in early 2008 and then re-released on July 7th of this year following the band's signing with Saddle Creek Records . I know I've mentioned it before, but I just can't get over how much Nils Edenlof sounds like Jeff Mangum when he throws himself into a lyric. If there are any readers from Ontario/Quebec reading this post, The Rural Alberta advantage [...]

Recommended Wednesday Show: Rural Alberta Advantage and Kittens Ablaze at Bowery Ballroom

Recommended Wednesday Show: Rural Alberta Advantage and Kittens Ablaze at Bowery Ballroom If you didn't manage to get tickets to Sufjan (to hear his cool new classical project, BQE), then I'd suggest hitting up the Rural Alberta Advantage/Kittens Ablaze Show. RAA recently got signed to Saddle Creek (Conor Oberst's old label) and will probably have a nice, long career ahead of them. I'm not bowled over by their music, but they have some nice, easy indie tunes. Like the mp3 below. It's a good song for the fall, full of nostalgia and romance and deep strings. And Kittens Ablaze are a good young band with a bad name that I'm [...]

The Rural Alberta Advantage at Bottom of the Hill this Thursday

The Rural Alberta Advantage at Bottom of the Hill this Thursday The Rural Alberta Advantage - "Frank, AB" As I mentioned in the notes for this week's podcast, The Rural Alberta Advantage were a SXSW highlight, with an amazing set full of emotion and energy that reached a cathartic apex in the trio's in-the-audience performance of the song "Goodnight" ( video here ). The trio's stripped-down rock is built around insistent melodies, and the songs capitalize by being short and to-the-point. Hometowns , the group's debut album, was re-released yesterday on Saddle Creek , and it's quite [...]
