[MP3] ARMS: “Tiger Tamer”
ARMS is pretty neat, I think, because it’s a bedroom project that sounds much greater in scope while still retaining a cool lo-fi mood. The mastermind behind it all is Todd Goldstein, the guitarist for the now-defunct Harlem Shakes, who will be digitally releasing ARMS’ debut album, Kids Aflame, in the U.S. this Tuesday. The… Continue reading [MP3] ARMS: “Tiger Tamer”

Los Campesinos! announce new album details!
I’ll be honest: I’ve never been too big a fan of Los Campesinos! It was just one of those bands I never really went out of my way to listen to, and as much as people seemed to like them, I simply never had much of a desire to check them out. But when they… Continue reading Los Campesinos! announce new album details!
Sufjan is free of conceptual restraints (read: new album coming!)
Sufjan Stevens has been popping his head out of the muck of obscurity a bit in the past few months, which is great because he rocks. He’s said in interviews, though, that he’s been in something of a creative rut, which explains the lack of a new album. His most recent is Illinoise, which came… Continue reading Sufjan is free of conceptual restraints (read: new album coming!)
[MP3] New Tim Williams: “Murderous Air”
Since Jon’s post about a month ago, Tim Williams has been gaining a reputation as one of the best up-and-coming singer/songwriters the genre has to offer. Way to go Jon for predicting success, and way to go to Tim for the actual success! His music was recently featured on One Tree Hill – just in… Continue reading [MP3] New Tim Williams: “Murderous Air”
Atlas Sound’s Logos is weirdly immersive in the best possible way
Did I make that album cover big enough for you? Well, I sure hope I did! Atlas Sound is the side project of Bradford Cox, much of the creative force behind Deerhunter. On Logos, his second full length under the Atlas Sound moniker, he reaches deep into his trippy bag of tricks to produce one… Continue reading Atlas Sound’s Logos is weirdly immersive in the best possible way
[MP3] Tape Deck Mountain: “Bat Lies”
So Tape Deck Mountain is releasing an album called Ghosts on November 17, and you guys should all legally purchase it. I’m rather excited myself because I’ve just heard “Bat Lies,” which you can stream below, and it’s a really nice track. The song’s slow, but in a really pretty, strummed electric guitar sort of… Continue reading [MP3] Tape Deck Mountain: “Bat Lies”
Modest Mouse unleashes video for “The Whale Song”
I guess I’m a day late on this, but the awesomeness here completely outweighs the lack of punctuality. It’s a new Modest Mouse video! It’s for “The Whale Song,” and looks like exactly what I’d expect from a Modest Mouse video. There’s sub-primitive Iron Man technology, Isaac Brock playing the guitar while sort of floating,… Continue reading Modest Mouse unleashes video for “The Whale Song”
