The Mountain Goats finally cover pro wrestling. New album forthcoming. Not quite The Oh Sees prolific, but close.

All posts for the month January, 2015
There are some artists, that just fit my audio preferences so well. And as such, I basically love everything that Brazilian Money releases. In fact, I will need to make sure they get back into rotation on the radio show. When I get back to it anyhow. Since i’m recovering from surgery still, Matt is holding down that fort.
Anyhow, this is some new stuff posted by Brazilian Money. Listening to this, I could imagine this being written and performed in a single sitting and then slowed down to perfection. I mean, like a fine meal made from dumpster dived veggies and lentils.
“Hi, I’m Wildhoney. You might remember me from past IRS blog posts such as ‘Seventeen‘ and ‘Matt’s Favorite Music of 2014‘”. — I’m assuming you knew to read that in Troy McClure’s voice. After a pair of promising EPs, Wildhoney will be releasing Sleep Through It at the end of the month.
This new Twerps record is pretty damned good. And you know what, I really love the band name. Nice job band. Merge Records has it up for pre-order here.
Man oh man, what an album Viet Cong’s S/T is. 2015 has already spoiled me with new music, and we’re not even out of January yet.
Holy shit, this is exciting. Erase Errata is back! Unfortunately, I can’t embed the stream from their new album. But you can check it out at this link. And also, if you step out over there you will find an interview with singer Jenny Hoyston. Aren’t you excited? I am. I love Erase Errata.
Oh, wait, the History of Handclaps is on youtube and totally embeddable. From their new album then…
Have you seen this 120 Minutes archive? Pretty cool. I forgot Lou Barlow once looked this young.
