Suckers EP (2009)

White Antelope

Here are 5 songs from Robin Pecknold's (Fleet Foxes) solo project, White Antelope, where he pretty much reworks old traditional songs,(except "It Ain't Me, Babe" and "Guitar Duet") like Sam Amidon did. He claims he only records these when he has a writer's block. It's still worth listening too, especially "Silver Dagger". None of these songs have had a formal release. (I forgot to add "Katie Cruel", so I will re-up).

Jeff Tweedy- Sunken Treasure- Live in the Pac NW (2006)

For all those who may be a little disappointed with the new Wilco album, here is an audio version of the solo acoustic tracks from the Jeff Tweedy tour DVD released a few years back. Enjoy.

Helio Sequence- Keep Your Eyes Ahead (2008)

I decent album by two guys from Portland...that's it, just two people! Sometimes they sound like they stole a few melodies but overall its a pretty easy going electronically-incorporated indie album.

BLU

My brother showed me this video painstakingly created by BLU.

Ida Maria / Fortress Round My Heart (2008)

As requested..the Norwegian indie/pop singer...

Subtle / ExitingARM (2008)

Experimental Hip-hop/indie-pop (supposedly genre-less) collab make a pretty good album that is all over the place. The band has had some tough luck in the past with tour van crashes, injuries, and stolen equipment, so out of sympathy this might be a record to buy. ExitingARM is also the last in the Hour Hero Yes trilogy, a character that narrates his own rise and fall. Recommended for listeners of the anticon collective.

The Tallest Man on Earth / Shallow Graves (2008)

Dylan-esque campfire songs from Sweden...

The Twilight Sad / Here, It Never Snowed. Afterwards It Did EP (2008)

EP of mostly reworked songs from a Scottish band who you should be familiar with by now. If you don't have their debut, Fourteen Autumns and Fifteen Winters, get it. It was one of my favorite releases of last year.

Strandbeest

One of my favorite videos on youtube.

Scarlett Johansson / Anywhere I Lay My Head (2008)

Impressive kinda. You can tell its produced by David Sitek.

Dosh / Wolves and Wishes (2008)

I haven't been able to post seeing as this week is finals. The only music I've been listening to is Miles Davis while studying. I've listened to this album once, and I liked it so I thought I would post it.


It makes me kind of mad that I worked kind of hard to find this album, and turns out if you search for Dosh on google, a mediafire file of the album comes up in the first three entries.

Wolf Parade / At Mount Zoomer (2008)

Thought I post this quickly as not many places have it up, but this means I myself haven't listened to it yet. Tell me what it's like...

Sigur Ros / Hlemmur Sountrack (2007)

This may be for serious Sigur Ros fans only, but maybe I'm wrong. "It is an instrumental electronic score to the Icelandic documentary Hlemmur, which is named after Reykjavík's main bus terminal. It was first sold to the public in the spring 2003 European and American tours. It is composed of 19 tracks, some of which are variations of the same theme." (tip: listen with headphones)

Where the Wild Things Are Clip

This is a clip that has been removed from most sites so here it is while it lasts. It looks awesome to me but a lot of people seem to be having a hard time with its supposed dark content as it is intended to be a children's film. It is also scored by Karen O and Bradford Cox...probably not intended for children then...?



After further investigation this clip is probably nothing like the actual movie seeing that the little boy is not actually the right actor! I mean the sound quality isn't great but if this is just a test, think about how good the actual movie will be! Don't re-shoot!

Backstage Sessions : Fleet Foxes - Innocent Son from Hard to Find a Friend on Vimeo.

Also check out the cover of "Katie Cruel" on the Backstage Sessions. Robin Pecknold's voice is flawless.

Born Ruffians / Red Yellow & Blue (2008)

Pure indie-rock and a purely lovable and fun album. Toronto-based Born Ruffians' debut packs woozy singing and yelps and chants on a platter of guitarpeggio and foot-stompin', rolling toms.
