I'm very excited about the idea of a new Autolux record. I saw today they released a new single on myspace called Audience No 2. I listened to it several times on repeat. I like it quite a bit. It still has the distortion of the first album and the signature drum fills. I'm feeling the jump in ...
I finally saw Dan Bejar play with Destroyer last night after being into him for a few years now. He has been one of my most played artists over the past year. Not only as part of Destroyer but with his other bands Swan Lake and The New Pornographers as well. It was great to finally see him and hear ...
I finally took my camera out in the subway this morning and took a few pictures. I've been wanting to do it for a long time but couldn't make myself do it until now. I hope to keep taking some every day.
The camera can't just be in the bag, you have to have it out around ...
The earth has thawed and given a glimpse into warmer days here in New York. I don't know if I've ever been this excited for the summer to come. Especially, walking around Union Square every day. Making it through the winter in New York makes you feel as if you really have earned the right for the summer ...
I went to a Black Book magazine party at 1Oak in Chelsea last night as I work near them with my new job. I was feeling kind of sick after some bad sushi but did my best to drink through it with the complimentary Skyy Vodka. I ended up having a good time anyway. I think I saw the guy ...
I've been enjoying the new Destroyer album quite a bit. He's been on the top plays list on last.fm for awhile now and this new album has only increased the lead. I've been wanting to see Dan Bejar live for several years and am excited that I have tickets to see him next week. There is ...
The last couple of evenings I've been listening to Bob Dylan - Blood on the Tracks on vinyl on repeat (manual repeat). I've had it for awhile but hadn't totally absorbed it like I have until recently.
I've been on a big Bob Dylan kick recently. Trying to get most of his albums on vinyl when I ...
I saw the Handsome Furs last night at Bowery Ballroom with Emily. I'm always up for seeing most any Canadian rock band and even more so if they have any relation to Wolf Parade.
The Handsome Furs are Dan Boeckner and his wife Alexei Perry. The music is much moreo stripped down than Wolf Parade as its just Boeckner ...
I was just watching the Led Zeppelin Song Remains the same concert film again on VH1 classics. Every time I watch that performance it blows me away. It is one of the greatest live music recordings I've seen. In addition to all the members of the band being at their peak, the videography and editing is outstanding as well ...
When I stepped out onto the sidewalk this morning to go to work it was a bright sunny day, perfect temperature. I got the song Cemetry Gates by The Smiths in my head after that, the line about “a dreaded sunny day, so I meet you at the cemtry gates.” I wasn’t really dreading the sunny day I just ...
