There is this wonderful new record, “High Violet”, that is worth a darling alone. All the other great things about this band set aside.
Darling of the week – No. 17 – Broken Social Scene
Darling of the week – No. 16 – Turboweekend
Another day, another darling from Denmark. Seems like we can’t get enough of them. Turboweekend are what comes out when you give Seal a friendlier face, call him Silas and make him record a mix between underground pop and electronic club music with two friendly faced friends of his. If you don’t know how that could sound, have a listen on their website.
good news vs. bad news.
bit of a blur…
Blur are about to release at least one yet unnamed song as a support for the Record Store Day on 17th April, a day to give independent record stores some recognition. The single will only be available on 7″ Vinyl and will be limited to a copy of 1.000. The question is now, how the heck to get one of those precious pieces?!
sometimes I’m ashamed
regarding “Bunny Lake”: why only those Austrian bands are called the biggest shit and talent who produce the most boring songs on earth and are as authentic as silicone breasts is simply beyond me. And who the hell calls himself “Suzie On The Rocks”?! Pathetic.
Darling of the week – No. 12 – I Am Kloot
Darling of the week – No. 10 – Bombay Bycicle Club
Turns out it feels like cheating when you have a ticket for a gig and still don’t go, simply because you can’t get your ass off the couch and even if you really like the music. I’m a bad person. I’m sure they will be back soon, but not in that kind of intimate location, and that really sucks.
I hereby apologise to Bombay Bycicle Club for not showing up yesterday – at least I sponsored you a little.
American Ghetto
Portugal. The Man will release “American Ghetto” in May. You can already pre-order all sorts of Vinyl, CD and download packages (CDs will be limited to 16.000) AND pre-listen the album here. You don’t need to buy a pig in a poke here, very customer friendly!
