I saw her open for BSS in January and immediately bought the album...quite nice.

dl "handshakes" if you haven't already, a new song that caught my attention live, quite great. tis only available bootlegged, but it's good enough, obviously on soulseek (i'd upload it if I had proper webspace)

[gil]

will track it down. thanks for the tip.

best fucking workout album ever (well, that and echoes).

[jack]

i agree.

if i did work out, it would be to old world underground.

(Beep) when you are a canadian town that can't support an nhl town, it has to be small. smaller than columbus, oh at least, in which case we'd be saying the same thing

[jack]

they're clearly going for obscure places. when i saw that the first few dates were in canada i was aroused...then saddened by now Toronto, although I'm sure they'll come by eventually if this is a longer tour.

Is this the "P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.S." bullshit cleverly disguised as some lame attempt to have more than five songs?

Never heard of Mountain Goats...Gabe's Oasis and the Maintenence Shop are also hot spots for good bands, too, right?

I never get a chance to find out about any of these cool shows. I only know, like, two people who even listen to the same music I do. So besides an occasional newspaper listing, I have no idea what's going on (plus I'm not a music buff, anyway). I usually only get to see really shitty local punk bands in downtown Des Moines.

well, I usually end up finding out about Ticketmaster stuff (because those will be bigger bands), but I'm talking about independent bands that are only playing at small clubs and coffee shops

[Toxic Monkey]

no seriously, try pollstar.

[Milhouse Van Houten]

yea, pollstar is the answer. ticketmaster will usually show you at least a couple good indie shows in your area, at least it does for me.

well, theres two bands named hefner. one is totally wack lounge electronic music with no vocals. thats what "an evening with.." is. avoid. stick with the snotty english hefner fellas

the hymn for the cigarettes
love will destroy us in the end
where the angels play their drum machines
peppermint taste
we were meant to be
science fiction

"the french" are also good. i guess they're the new band that sounds exactly the same.. hefner broke up. try "porn shoes"

[pocketfox]

[mohammed jafar]

yeah the scottish camera obscura are sorta like a more restrained, less poppy version of B&S on Sinister except the vocals are more early-leonard cohen-styled than nick drake or morrissey. also they don't go for expansive bryter layter style strings as often as B&S (or isobel campbell). their first album is good, but if you download pretty much any two tracks on the Underachievers Must Try Harder second album you should get a good idea of what they're like. coincidentally i am going to see them on monday in a church hall or something (after failed attempt to get into their earlier show at a 50-capacity bar last week).

at first listen i wondered what the fuck they did to the song, on second listen I found it strangely compelling, by now I've come to like this bizarre cover. are all xiu xiu songs like this?

awesomeness, thanks ASO..

questions:

1. is this a NHC sponsered site (meaning: is there were you guys post your music to share between each other.. ASO, Gil, Nate, Roarke, etc..?)

2. Which ones would be this genius IDM you speak of? Manitoba and Board of Canada clones welcome.

[AllSussedOut]

I forget which MNKer passed it my way (it was for !!!'s "Giuliani," by the way)... but whomever it was, thanks again. I don't know if it is an MNK member's site, or some random-ass link.

To find the IDM and more, click on "downloads" at the top of the page. In addition to offering the same MP3 links as are found on the main page, there are descriptions of what each song is/sounds like/is reminiscent of.

[Interslice]

songs: ohia - farewell transmission

Wow, thanks for that site, FooR. Seems to be Chicago-based, based on the mention of Empty Bottle and Metro. And there's Deathray Davies, Menomena and MMJ on there too. Bookmarking it.

I bought it, at a small New England chain of record stores called Newbury Comics. You should certainly keep seeking the album out, as it's excellent; check out the MP3 sample here (http://www.killrockstars.com/bands/owlandpussycat/audio/Blinds.mp3) to see if it really would be something that interests you.

It appears that the band (or someone else) actually slipped that into the CDDB registry. So if you rip the CD, you get a whole set of wacky alterna-titles.

"kill the alligator and run" is stupid fun too. doesn't stop it being irritating, boring, and lifeless. i don't get this constant inverted-snob musical argument that because something is "fun", it is somehow beyond criticism. i also don't get the defense of the darkness that they are somehow "putting the fun back into mainstream rock" or something. because every white stripes or strokes single is a whiny acoustic ballad or something? pfft
