NPR Music released their 100 Favorite Songs of 2012 list last week, which features songs by Bearden's John Fullbright and Tulsa native St. Vincent . John Fullbright, "Gawd Above" Americana music's fiercest young contender speaks the word of a pissed-off deity in the punchiest slice of sacrilege music had to offer this year. "Gawd Above" is included on Fullbright's album, From the Ground Up . [...]
Love This Giant is the new collaboration between St. Vincent and former Talking Heads singer David Byrne. As I said when I first posted about it in July, this seemingly strange pairing made perfect sense to me since they share a flare for the eccentric. The album as a whole doesn't quite live up to [...]
David Byrne (Talking Heads) & St. Vincent have come together to give birth to Love this Giant. The collaboration is somewhat odd to tell you the truth. Then again, Byrne is not known for having "normal" sense of music panache. The album cover, which was inspired by Beauty and the Beast , also speaks to the type of music they gave birth to. The album, in itself, uses a lot of brass instruments, which gives the music a natural feeling around its heavy techonology loops and [...]
DAVID BYRNE AND ST. VINCENT ( Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall , 1037 SW Broadway) It's tediously predictable that Love This Giant blew my fucking mind. Consider the facts: Over the past five years, each album released by David Byrne (one) and St. Vincent (three) has sparked to life previously unknown synapses in my brain. So it's unsurprising that a collaboration between two such brainy rockers would be the best thing that's happened to my ears in 2012. What is surprising is how warm it sounds—positively inviting. David Byrne and Annie Clark of St. Vincent typically tend [...]
We've reached the mid way point in "Rocktober," and things certainly aren't mellow... I may be at a show all 7 of these days. You will be, too! Thursday, October 11th Busdriver, Nocando, Open Mic Eagle at The New Parish Busdriver is a rapper by profession. At least, that's what he calls himself. He's more [...]

Tickets to the all-ages performance range from $39.50 to $65 and are available here. Below, watch a music video for their song "Who." The Afghan Whigs' much-anticipated reunion tour ...

Watch/Listen here: I have always loved David Byrne's voice. Whether solo or Talking Heads, it is so distinct, quirky and cool. Throw in St. Vincent's crystal clear vocals and you have something special. The video is also awesome and strange and funny. A can't lose proposition! Lyrics here, more below: Who be my valentine? Who lift this heavy load? Who share this taxi cab? Who wants to climb aboard? [...]
David Byrne, How Music Works David Byrne’s new manifesto slash memoir, How Music Works , has been written many times before. Ethnomusicologists and philosophers, from Theodor Adorno to Walter Benjamin to David Suisman, have chronicled the historical shift from classical to popular music, lamenting it, praising it, and/or evaluating the societal changes brought about by it and its corresponding technology. Byrne’s book, which illustrates the history of analog and digital recording, narrates the advent of the music industry, and claims to describe how to create a music scene or subculture offers [...]
Fall has finally begun, and with it, yet another wave of amazing bands are in town playing venues across Manhattan and Brooklyn. After releasing their collab album Love This Giant two weeks ago, David Byrne and St. Vincent will put the new songs on display with three shows planned in the city this week - two at Beacon Theater and one at Williamsburg Park. Other highlights this week? Ty Segall , Craft Spells , Dirty Projectors (in Westchester), Grizzly Bear , Dirty Projectors [...]
If there's a lesson to be learned from Love This Giant , it's that collaboration is the sincerest form of flattery. If there's a lesson to be learned from the David Byrne-St. Vincent joint production Love This Giant, it's that collaboration is the sincerest form of flattery. The patron saint du jour for this generation of art-minded indies, Byrne has been an in-demand special guest star, including a cameo with Arcade Fire and a charity compilation track with Dirty Projectors, the most obvious heirs to the head Talking Head's legacy. Indeed, Byrne's influence on today's too-cool-for-school...

The Avett Brothers – The Carpenter (Universal) O que um carpinteiro faz (além aparecer em várias histórias)? Ele pega a rusticidade da madeira e talha, esculpe, modela, e com um toque de verniz, arredonda as pontas, retira as farpas e faz da madeira um produto final, domado. Nesse caso, o carpinteiro dos irmãos Avett é definitivamente o produtor lendário Rick Rubin , que fez de The Carpenter o álbum mais suave, confortável e acessível do grupo de "indie-bluegrass". Mas essa aparência domada não é um ponto negativo em si, [...]
With the arrival of September comes the end of the summer season, as well as the alleged end of one’s ability to wear white without scrutiny. While the impending change of seasons is nearly upon us, we here at TVD are sticking to our routine and doing what we do at the beginning of every month: as usual, we’re previewing some of the artists coming to the 9:30 Club and giving you the chance to enter to win tickets to one of the concerts below. Don't forget to submit your extra entry to [...]
Big surprise, a collaboration from David Byrne and St. Vincent is not what anyone would have expected, but is it any good? 4AD Records, 2012 8.8 / 10.0 Three years in the making, David Byrne and St. Vincent's collaborative effort, Love This Giant, is finally upon us. Perhaps the most [...]
Who - David Byrne & St. Vincent Behalve boeken schrijven houdt David Byrne (voormalig opperhoofd van Talking Heads ) zich dus ook nog bezig met muziek, en dat leidt dit jaar al tot het naar verluidt erg mooie album Love this giant , dat hij samen met St. Vincent uitbrengt op 11 september. De eerste single daaruit, Who , [...]

Music videos! They are good again sometimes. It's a great time to be alive.
