Check it - new Edwyn Collins. →
And not too bad either. Very classic sound from him in general - but look at that guest list… Johnny Marr FTW!
More Lower Dens goodness. →
Mmmm, they are still rocking my socks. Less of the Mazzy Star vibe in this track, but still very mellow and moody and right up my alley.
New coolness from Coyote Clean Up →
And, as usual, it is excellent chillwave.
Amanda Palmer = Awesome. →
If anyone can pull off a cover album, of all Radiohead songs… and on an ukulele, it is Amanda Palmer.
Toro Y Moi's 'Leave Everywhere' is NPR's Song Of... →
Great choice, NPR! :)
And now I must hear ‘Blessa’…
NPR gives us a taste of the new. And old that is... →
And so forth.
But I can already tell you the winners: S. Carey’s ‘In the Dirt’ is exquisite and lovely, the real stand-out of this group of songs; Agent Ribbons is hitting my sweet spot for garage-style girl-rock (like Dum Dum Girls, but a tad softer or less cassette-tape sounding); David Dondero’s ‘#Zero With A Bullet’ is as awesome as it is almost bittersweet...
