Pictured: 1 2 3 4 is on one helluva road trip. I’m getting too old for this.
1 2 3 4 is a band from Denmark. They are pretty good. They play fast music with good drum parts, good bass parts, good guitar parts, and OK other parts. This review would perhaps […]
Pictured: And now Mr. Miller will lead us as we join our voices in singing A Mighty Fortress Is Our God.
My friend Peter is We Are The Willows. He also sings and plays for the indie-rock band Red Fox Grey Fox in Minneapolis, but there’s something pretty special about a solo project when it comes […]
Pictured: There’s a lot of pressure on my picture titling right now. I just can’t…
Kevin Drew is one of two founding members of mega-collaborate, Broken Social Scene. His guitar work and scratchy, low-fi vocals have blended in with the creativity of around 20 other musicians to make some of the best post-rock music of this […]
Pictured: Phosphoresicles. Greek God of light through pink curtains.
Matthew Houck is a wise and rustic man. I imagine with no proof what-so-ever that he’s so often pictured without clothes on because he is protesting something very important that we aren‘t yet ready to come to face with. Possibly a statement about our society’s general conformity, […]
This song fucking rules.
The sound that Jordon Robson-Cramer gets his guitar to make is perhaps the foremost reason why Sunset Rubdown is one of the most important bands alive right now. The distortion, the delay, the reverb. Dude knows how to use his effect pedals. That opening riff is probably my favorite “triumphant introduction” to […]
Pictured: This is a picture from a national tour that J.Fish did completely on bike. No lie, he played 30 shows in 6 months. While the idea seemed cool before he set out, he quickly realized how incredibly innefficient it was as well.
This song is absolute radio-pop bliss. Maybe that’s because all it’s parts sound […]
Pictued: The Curtains are ready for casual Friday. Everyday!
I’m not a big Deerhoof guy. Sorry, I know they’re supposed to be really, really brilliant and awesome, but it ain’t me. Naw, naw, naw it ain’t fer me. So you can imagine my surprise when I found that Chris Cohen (of […]
Pictured: The Forms doing exactly what I imagine New Yorkers to be doing all the time. Namely; smoking, wearing black, and making fun of fly-overs.
The Forms are a New York band filled with sharp-lined guitar parts and cascading piano. They sometimes play with The National (or have at least twice according […]
Pictured: Tender Forever; Electronic rockers, conspicuous vandals.
Let me just say this, I’m going to reference the Postal Service in this review. Am I OK with this? No. Do I think it is lazy journalism? Yes. Can I explain? Thank you. Tender Forever started as a project between […]
Pictured: On location at WHYS. Truly.
Hey guys, thanks to everyone who listened to us as we took our first stab at the world of radio. It was a learning experience to be sure. For those of you who missed it (we won’t be archiving this one for obvious reasons) all of the following happened:
- […]

Pictured: Low Low Low La La La Love Love Love hip, good shepherds, poor band-namers.
Low Low Low La La La Love Love Love have too long of a name. That’s about it for criticism, on to the good stuff. L3L3L3 is a group of people from England playing songs that […]
Pictured: The Technology we are dealing with. Now do you understand the gravity of the situation?
Hey guys, sorry it has been so long since an update… We aren’t trying to jerk your collective chain. We’ve just been busy doing some stuff like, oh I don’t know… getting together a radio show that may bust the bloody […]
