Of Monsters and Men during KEXP's broadcast from KEX Hostel during Airwaves '11 photo by Michael Matynka Iceland Airwaves just announced more bands for its 2012 lineup, including some KEXP listener faves: Dirty Projectors , The Vaccines , Moonface (Spencer Krug), and Purity Ring . Among the added Icelandic acts added are the hugely successful Of Monsters and Men , whom we first discovered at Airwaves in 2010, as well as others we've been fortunate to feature before: FM Belfast [...]

Brooklyn's Dirty Projectors have a new track for us off their upcoming LP Swing Lo Magellan, via Domino Records. Front-man Dave Longstreth had a key role with this album, writing, producing, recording and mixing it, and the first listen from it, 'Gun Has No Trigger' is a gutsy piece of pop gold that stays with you long after it has departed your speakers. This seventh studio LP will feature twelve tracks and promises [...]

Dopo “Bitte Orca”, del 2009, esce con Domino il nuovo album dei Dirty Projectors, “Swing Lo Magellan”, in USA il 10 luglio, un giorno prima nel resto del mondo. La tracklist è in fondo a questo articolo, mentre l’antipasto è il singolo “Gun has no trigger”. Il disco è stato registrato da Dave Longstreth, che è anche alla produzione e al mixer, ed è il risultato di un labor limae partito da 70 canzoni, portate poi a 40 demo e infine alle 12 tracce del lavoro finito. Al lavoro non partecipa Angel Deradoorian, cantante del gruppo, dato che al momento [...]
Dirty Projectors tekee kaivatun paluun 9. heinäkuuta, jolloin ilmestyy yhtyeen kuudes levy Swing Lo Magellan . Materiaalista ei ilmeisesti ollut pulaa, sillä nokkamies Dave Longstreth on kertonut säveltäneensä 70 uutta kappaletta, josta levylle tislautui lopulta 12. Ensimmäinen single The Gun Has No Trigger sisältää tuttuja sävyjä. Rummut ovat pinnassa ja taustalaulut merkittävässä osassa, basso tempoilee ja Longstreth äänessä on edelleen suurta tunteen paloa. Tuoreen tuulahduksen tuo kappaleen melankolinen ja yllättävän iskelmällinen laulumelodia. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =qXJNUK2xwUw

I know I'm not the only one who can't wait for the new Dirty Projectors album Swing Lo Magellan to come out. Their new single Gun Has No Trigger after few bars in has me wondering if this was actually a Danger Mouse production. Dark and psychedelic sounds layered with gritty compressed live drum recordings serves as the perfect backdrop to lead vocalist David Longstreth's ominous lyrics. Listen to his words as he warns of a world where finding beauty in life has come too late. It was there right in front of us [...]

Sometime I really wish I understood exotic oriental languages. That's why I'm so glad Dirty Projectors have a new song translated from a super cool ancient language. Check it out in this vid. posted by @EstabanBelChere
Dirty Projectors release a new single, teasing toward the release of the band's latest album, Swing Lo Magellan . It'll be out on July 10th via Domino. While Dirty Projectors has had its accessible moments in the past-and the group's albums have definitely been foreshadowing a move toward poppier sounds-it's pretty surprising to hear Dave Longstreth and company on a track like this. "Gun Has No Trigger" has a pretty straightforward execution, avoiding the of disorienting tempo changes and angular guitar leads that made Bitte Orca a difficult but fun record. While this track isn't [...]
Os Dirty Projectors vão também ter novo álbum. A Domino já se pôs a divulgar o primeiro single, "Gun Has No Trigger" (youtube abaixo).

It’s been a while since art rock super troopers The Dirty Projectors released some new material. Coming off their 2009 critically acclaimed Bitte Orca and their collaboration album with the none other than Björk on Mount Wittenberg Orca in 2010, DP has enjoyed quite a bit of love and attention from college radio and indie music blogs alike, but it seems like they went underground for a while- or rather above ground on the music festival circuit. Yet finally as March 2012 comes to a close The Dirty Projectors have given us a sneak peak of what they have [...]
La date de sortie n'est pas encore annoncée (à moins qu'il faille déchiffrer les hiéroglyphes) mais les Dirty Projectors sortent déjà le premier single de leur prochain album : « Gun Has No Trigger ». Le groupe est d'ores et déjà programmé au Pitchfork Festival à Chicago, on croise les doigts pour qu'ils fassent un crochet par la France pour la deuxième édition notamment.
