Later this week I'll be celebrating my 29th birthday, it's not a milestone year or something I'm particularly looking forward to turning (though I'm seeing the Pixies to celebrate it), it's just the natural order of things me aging and whatnot. Back in 1981, mere months after I was born, the ...

My apologies for the lack of posts today! I had total brains freeze last night when trying to come up with a Top 10 list today and my to say I've been lacking in new musical discoveries for a "Band of the Week" is pretty much an understatement of gargantuan proportions. Still, there's a lot ...

It may not be as monumental as celebrating the 20th anniversaries of labels like Matador, Merge, Warped, and Slumberland this year, but Paper Bag Records have made a nice gesture to celebrate their 7th Anniversary with a compilation featuring their bands covering a wide range of artists. Paper ...

Many months ago I wrote about Slothbear and their lo-fi recordings that were done on a broken 4-track recorder. Well it appears the band have tightened things up over the ensuing months and gone and gotten themselves some more fi for their latest batch of recordings. The recently released ...

There is nothing truly brilliant about living in New Jersey. The "armpit of America" that sits just a few miles to New York City's west has long been a wasteland where garbage and refineries go because people don't really want to. Sure, some people glorify the Jersey shore or wax poetic about ...

After meeting Will Stratton you have to hope that the old saying, "nice guys finish last", is complete and utter garbage. Stratton is the very definition of nice, a cordial young fellow willing to talk to any and all who approach him after a show and it helps that his music is so easy to ...

Early this year we were so sure we had our year end list all planned out. The Antlers, Animal Collective, Dirty Projectors, and Grizzly Bear had all stood us on our heads with their fantastic albums that had us wooing and cooing with each successive listen. But as the year has worn on there ...

Crystal Stilts started as a band the same year that Slumberland Records got back up and running after a couple of years off. It makes sense that their paths would cross since the sounds of both seem to run parallel to each other. In 2008 they made it happen with Slumberland Records ...

In celebrating the 20th anniversary of Slumberland Records we contemplated listing the label's best albums as we've already done for Matador and Merge earlier this year, but we realized that Slumberland's tradition is built more on the 7" release than it is on the full album. Since they ...
