All posts for the month September, 2014

I’ve been listening to Kelley Stoltz’s lovely Double Exposure the past few days, clinging desperately to the last few vestiges of summer. Here’s his ode to his favorite food truck.

Sometimes, with music, I end up going down the rabbit hole.  The other day I posted a track from a new 7″ by Quemada Records.  I decided to pick up the 7″ and placed an order with them.  Via that order I found this 7″ from another label.  Another fantastic song.  And creepy as hell video.  Fantastic stuff. I don’t know where that footage is from but i’m now curious.

An extremely relevant SOTD today, as our band will be playing this upcoming Saturday, 9PM at Hambones in Lawrenceville. First show in a few months, so come help us shake off the dust and have a good time (read: buy us beer, or buy yourself enough beer that you’ll enjoy whatever show we wind up putting on). Hiss Golden Messenger’s Lateness of Dancers is out today on Merge Records.
Peals make some laid back, sometimes warm/sometimes electronic music that falls closer to The Books than The Clientele on the easy-listening psych spectrum. Here they are playing “Floating Leaf”, from last year’s Walking Field, a song so relaxing you’d never guess that this project is how they fill time between their day jobs playing in Future Islands and Double Dagger.
Yes, you read that band name correctly. Mr. Gizzard and his collective Wizards will be releasing an LP on John Dwyer’s Castleface Records in November.

It’s good spacey indie rock with a strong 80s/Joy Division influence. While maybe not breaking new ground, this Austin 3-piece has put together a good album that’s consistent and draws you in. So consistent that I initially missed the transition from “Both Eyes” into “Lied”. The pause wasn’t enough apparently. But it’s half way through Lied where this album get’s more interesting. “You’re Fake” is the best song but this one is pretty good as well.

For what it’s worth, I also found this which is pretty great.  Off of a compilation.
