Justin Vernon on Colbert

Justin Vernon talks about Bon Iver’s new album on Colbert. Basically, it’s an overload of awesome, topped off with a killer performance of Calgary. Touche, Colbert… touche.

audiafauna – Roots

Ok, so here’s the thing: audiafauna haven’t even got around to releasing their debut LP yet. So this may be considered to be somewhat premature… but after spinning the below track, “Roots” a few times, I’m fairly confident in predicting that the radio stations will just eat this tune up. It’s pure radio fodder. And […]

New Morrissey – Action Is My Middle Name (Live at Maida Vale 2011)

Um. Um um um. New Morrissey! That is all. (You can listen to the whole set here, but if you’re in Australia you’ll need to spoof your IP)

Stream Bon Iver, Bon Iver

Dudes, stream the new self-titled “Bon Iver” LP below. Thanks to the New York Times, you can listen to the whole release, two weeks before its official release on June 21. Thoughts?

But I’ve just got through listening to his new album, The Graduation Ceremony (out today) and I think […]

Tyler, The Creator – Yonkers [VIDEO]

Can someone else let me know what you think of the whole Odd Future thing? Because, seriously… I’ve never been as conflicted about music as I have been by these dudes. I don’t know which way to turn, but I know I can’t turn away. It’s some of the most prodigious talent I’ve seen in… […]

The Antlers – Every Night My Teeth Are Falling Out

I have to admit, I just never really got into The Antlers hype. There was just something about them that didn’t connect with me, which is weird as the fans I speak to seem to get this completely deep and meaningful connection with their tunes. But, for whatever reason, it just didn’t click in my […]
