• Solange Covers Dirty Projectors

  
  Stereogum — Authority: 733
  From the moment it was heard in its live pre- Bitte Orca form, folks were comparing " Stillness Is The Move ," aka the no. 1 song in Brooklyn , to Mariah Carey. (And, as a helpful full-disclosure, in the press release I wrote for the record I said the songs "ready for popular hip-hop radio, making the same ...

• New Pearl Harbor - "California Shakedown" & "M.L.O."

  
  Stereogum — Authority: 733
  A couple months ago we introduced you to Piper and Skylar, aka L.A. dream-pop duo Pearl Harbor, via " Luv Goon ," a song from their Mexican Summer 12". The track calmly transformed a bedroom into a wave pool with its slippery guitar and warm vocals. Or, as I said then, "Think about Washed Outs hazier ambiance combined ...

  UsedWigs - Quality Workday Distractions — Authority: 421
  First off, LOVE the giant pit stain, sir. Okay, I wish I could say this is not a fair representation Belmar, NJ, or that the network must have hired actors because these 20-somethings seem more like broad-based characters than actual sentient human beings, but no, this is the real dopey deal. MTV producers did not ...

  Stereogum — Authority: 733
  A few weeks ago I offered up some words in testament to Warp records , the ambitious, tasteful, and increasingly eclectic label thats also earned itself a "venerable" descriptor having just celebrated 20 years of nurturing the processes of everyone from Boards Of Canada to Battles.

  Listen to The Soft Pack PREVIEW: LISTEN The Soft Pack’s “Answer to Yourself,” on their Myspace . In my search for some new music — my favorite method of procrastination — I came across a list of cover songs, one being a version of Phoenix’s “Fences” by The Soft Pack. I figured it was worth a ...

• A bit of a sidetrack on what to post

  
  in ALL caps — Authority: 114
  So I had a grand plan on what to post this week. After a long Sunday night in which I went to see "Little" Louie Vega play, I was dumbfounded by the number of songs I hadnt heard in literally years. However, as the typical man with a problem involving his attention span, that has changed. Last night I heard a track ...

• New Soft Pack Video - "Answer To Yourself" (Stereogum Premiere)

  
  Stereogum — Authority: 733
  San Diego quartet the Soft Pack were called the Muslims when we suggested you keep your eyes on them . They shifted the name, but their Strokes-esque Stooges-inspired post-punk rock n roll remains the same (even when they go acoustic ). They reminded me of a preppy Richard Hell and the Voidoids when I first heard ...

• The Dirty 9s - Lucy Opus

  
  mp3hugger — Authority: 123
  I seem to remember JJ72 taking some flack from certain quarters for having that slow/fast dynamic and a lead singer with a voice that could manage a decent falsetto. In other words they had deviated from the staple configuration that had fuelled Irish bands for generations. Let’s hope we have all moved on from that ...

• Quit Your Day Job: Bear In Heaven

  
  Stereogum — Authority: 733
  A couple of months ago, we posted Bear In Heavens " Lovesick Teenagers " in the midst of the deaths of John Hughes and Patrick Swayze. It colored the song then and has provided me a framework that still affects me when I hear it. The Jon Philpot-fronted Brooklyn (via Georgia and Alabama) quartet offer a number of ...

• New Cloud Nothings - "Hey Cool Kid"

  
  Stereogum — Authority: 733
  Maybe were not ready to call it a trend, but Cloud Nothings ebullient, gently snotty lo-fi pop does pair nicely with Wild Nothings " Confirmation ," at least on a textural level. I dont know all that much about Cloud Nothings besides a vague Ohio address, a CD/cassette forthcoming on Californias Bridgetown Records , ...

  unpiano: music — Authority: 117
  Covers don’t get much better than this. I’m not sure why Galaxie 500 was so good at covers but they did it right almost every time. Don’t you just want to loop the beginning of ‘Submission’ so that it plays again and again? Anyways, it’s not new or anything but I always like to play it before I go on ...
