Shapes_have_fangs_sq_80

The Black  hear them on myspace

M_30ea250381dd1faf12ef72f5e8d8968e_sq_80

The Black flows from the songwriting collaboration of singer/guitarist David Longoria and guitarist Alan Schaefer, and their ears are trained toward Seventies Southern rock; they have an affinity for the Band, if not in their swagger than in the several live songs they've covered. The Black seems as misnomer, though, as the songs here radiate. Opener "Cell Block" is slap-happy pop, threaded with Longoria's lyrics ("How&#...read more


Yeasayer  hear them on myspace

814422771_m_sq_80

Pulling from every spectrum and mashing, then re-mashing, YEASAYER have bent genres until they've become unrecognizable. It would only be a lazy stab to make modern day comparisons. Please, make this an exercise.YEASAYER’S components are four, with each one a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, songwriter, and chanter. Founded by half of a barbershop quartet, then followed by the rhythm, YEASAYER is a tight brotherhood undisrupted by th...read more

Mp3Hugger.com Loxsly - Stethoscope Can there be anything more exciting than discovering an unsigned gem amongst the plethora of musical resources spread throughout myspace? Probably a few I suppose but right at this moment Austin 5-piece Loxsly are consuming me. Not in an agonising Ebola like way, more in a fuzzy first date type of one. Stethoscope could be the most affable piece of awkward pop Ive heard this year. It mixes equal parts Mercury...read more

Thievery Corporation  hear them on myspace

Thievery_sq_80

One evening dance aficionado Eric Hilton was out in Washington DC enjoying a casual drink when he bumped into Rob Garza. Several cocktails later, the two had become such fast friends, they decided to form Thievery Corporation. Their mix of downtempo house grooves was so smooth and tight that they quickly found fame on the electronic circuit.

When Dinosaurs Ruled The Earth  hear them on myspace

M_c1cff691425a23fcf27a8a0c4dcfec20_sq_80

Local sevenpiece When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth is beyond definition. Crash bam boom. Pop metal noise. Start stop holler. Whatever. The Tuxedo Killers-Awesome Cool Dudes combo is loud, jittery, and – get this – completely in control. Where most noise bands spit and sputter above a staccato guitar spurt, Dinos play with time changes, melody, and power. Don't let opening number "Glee Club" fool you, either. These aren&#...read more

Wolf Parade  hear them on myspace

M_8c07ca1fdb773687eb2976c33f1d2eea_sq_80

There have been a number of Wolf bands that have crept into the mainstream press in recent months, but Montreal's Wolf Parade are the lobos of choice in the indie-kid set. The band's very first gig came about when they weren't even a band, after friends in the Arcade Fire asked Arlen Thompson to open for them. Thompson teamed up with Spencer Krug, and the two came up with a number of songs in a matter of days while holed up in a ti...read more


Alejandro Escovedo  hear them on myspace

M_c72d014946994b042b72b106a73ee4cd_sq_80

Musically, Alejandro Escovedo is in his own genre, notes David Fricke in Rolling Stone. High words of praise indeed, especially at a time when most popular music is boxed into styles and rife with references, influences and antecedents. Escovedo may possess a miles wide palette of music that he has absorbed and draws from, yet his own sound defies categorization and transcends boundaries. He is also a consummate storyteller who is held in the ...read more

we spent the chilly month of January 2007 living in a crawl-space of a warehouse in Brooklyn. we played many amazing shows and somehow (magic? FATE?) we were privileged to meet and record with one of our favorite bands of all time, Gerty Farish. the four of us "borrowed" (yoink!) a key to the shared practice space of Parts & Labor and Matt & Kim and jammed on their instruments all day and night for 2 days before being kicked out so the other b...read more
