Oh I'm really digging this trend that blends noise with pop with surf. The Drums for one! Mwwwaaa! But now we have Surfer Blood. (I'll post about The Sandwitches later.) Surfer Blood's new album, Astro Coast, is worth the effort and expense. No
Download: Rulers, Ruling All Things by Midlake The more I hear the new stuff from Midlake, the more excited I get. I know it may be difficult to get excited about dreamy psych/folk/baroque/pop thing but I am. The more Midlake...
 I've never been to Coachella. Perhaps I'm too old or too busy or don't live in SoCal. But damn I'd like to see this. Pavement for one. It's over my Birthday as well. Maybe I should treat myself. Anyone else going?Besides Pavement... Yo La Ten
Download:Mercy (live) by Star and Micey Sure I'll post your music if you're a band that follows me on Twitter... why not? Especially if it's as solid as Star and Micey. They're a Memphis based folk pop band signed to...
Download: Norway by Beach House I had a sign on top of my front door that said "Beach House". I bought it on eBay. One of the hooks fell off and I haven't replaced it. Any house I live in...
Download: Isn't It a Shame by The So So Glos I heard part of this track twice on XMU and for some reason could not remember their name. I would always catch it in the middle and then could never...
It's upsetting news when something like this happens. My kids were really into Jay Reatard. His last album on Matador was awesome. The fact that he's gone doesn't make sense right now. Needless to say, it's sad. Waiting For Something - a short
Download: Mummy by Shotgun Showdown Very cool Long Beach, CA band. Shotgun Showdown. Go there and support these ladies. Help them get things going. I think they've got something.
I think I was stunned by Midlake's last record. Just a beautiful thing. The Trials of Van Occupanther. Their new album The Courage of Others will be released Feb. 2. Here's the first track. Acts of Man.
Should I start this blog up again? I like music. It would be good to promote the stuff I like and hear. Thinking about it...
Download Songs For Snakes - The Time You Lost Was Mine So the SF Giants look geared for another year of heartbreak and let down and I'm FUMING that knucklehead Mayor Newsom isn't wearing a Giants cap at every public...
Download: Northern State - Sucka Mohterfucka Sassy political shit from NYC. Produced by Adrock. On Mike Patton's Ipecac label. That's all I need to know. Northern State is now on my frequently played list. They should be on yours too....
Download: The Black Keys - Strange Times Album comes out in the beginning of April. On Nonesuch. Produced by Dangermouse. Lots of hype. I hope it can live up to it. So far so good.
Download: Peanut Butter Wolf Valentines Day Mix Peanut Butter Wolf. He's from San Jose. Right around the corner from Swedelife HQ. I saw him open for Beastie Boys last year. My kids loved him. So this is a mix he...
Download: Team Robespierre - Ha Ha Ha It is what it is. You know I was thinking that I'd like to have an automatic record review generator. You could just plug in some words like the name of the band,...
Download: The Dodos - Nerds The Dodos are from my hometown San Francisco. They're another guitar/drum power duo but a bit more on the experimental side of the tracks. Most seem to embrace the blues straight up. The dodos make...
Download: The Magnetic Fields - California Girls I've been selling off my CDs left and right. There's no reason to have them anymore and I can use the extra cash. But as I was doing so tonight, I picked up...
Download: Dale Strachan - Sad Gordon I was looking for a Dale song called Morrissey Blvd. but it appears we didn't put it on his solo album. I can't figure out why. Did he not want that song on his...
Download: Or, The Whale - Isn't She Awful San Francisco grande band Or, The Whale will be at the Noise Pop Fest this year. As is their right. They'll be at Cafe Du Nord on Feb. 28th if they can...
Wye Oak - Warning Via brooklynvegan, found this song the other day. Quite nice jangly, dreamy indie pop. Two piece. Girl and a boy. They make nice music and they are on Merge Records. More Wye Oak on Myspace. Not...
