Anyway, my other other main newbie of serious DG (and SO SHOULD EVERYONE ELSE ON HERE'S) attention, Maron Hamada, has a new single out next month. Album to follow shortly. Cannot wait. More of her amazing smoky blend of jazz rock!



I found a bigger one, how to make fit better????

It's getting a CD and (an already sold out 7" but pre-ordered by yours truly) pressing. Loving them old 70's style covers she's going for).


Also; PITCHFORK gave Pixies new EP 1.0 out of 10. Now I HAVE to hear this thing!!!!

Really enjoying this (possibly helps with me not being a Carpenter's fan/not giving a crap about them :-p) - meaning for me, I have no real comparisons to be made and can just enjoy it for what it is. The songs themselves are nice enough, but its's Rie Fu of course has Rie Fu's voice which I have always adored since her debut.

EDIT:

RE- Pixies EP 1- Yep, it's a turd, a real rotten one too. This is shockingly dull and obviously midlife-crisis music. I'd rather listen to Lou Reed and Metallica's Lulu than this. That's the level of bad we're dealing with here. There's no defense for it. If it was from another band maybe I'd be 'meh' and forget, but come on, this is Pixies. Worst release of the year? Most probably. Definitely most disappointing/fanbase crushing release whichever way you look at it. I wasn't expecting Doolittle, but at least expecting Pitchfork to be wrong/exaggerating/focussing on band status/trying WAAAAY too hard to have a different opinion to the norm like usual when they give something either a 1 or 10...

EDIT 2:

Just heard Arcade Fire's Reflektor, and I really was taken aback by the new "dancey" direction at first. But hell, now I've listened multiple times, it's really taking hold of me and I'm getting really pumped at this new face for them. While it may be a new sound, it's still definately Arcade Fire. The fact that Bowie is guesting on this too... amazing (and kinda suiting seeing as I have always wished they should)!

The Riddle - Nik Kershaw


Heard this song in the MacDonalds...I like it more than current indie pop/ pop rock.

Arcade Fire is dance-y, which knocks it a couple steps down the pretentious points. I can dig it.

Only a really pretentious asshole/clueless idiot would make the complaint that Arcade Fire are pretentious (which they are, but with purpose/place/give an edge ala Radiohead-esque pretense, not something one would usually care to make a complaint about) :-p

If anything, this new Arcade Fire is their most 'pretentious' yet- a double album, full of long 7 minute songs... I can feel the pretentiousness already. And I can't wait.

I'd say Arcade Fire just in general are kind of pretentious, even if they seem like affable people in interviews. Some of parts I suppose.
And yessssss double album. Hope its killer.
