J+J+J: Spills That Kill [7″ Review]

J+J+J gets Married

With a sound that can only be described as the crack-baby lovechild of Gravy Train and IQU, a simpler explanation of J+J+J (MySpace) would be that they create interesting electronic pop music. And Spills That Kill falls right in line with both those statements. J+J+J is Joanna and Johnny, a wacky duo from Chicago. The third J is Jesus, as they met at a rock show in a church parking lot. But the music they make is anything but biblical. Read More »J+J+J: Spills That Kill [7″ Review]

Hayden: In Field And Town [Album Review]

Hayden

I’m continually surprised by In Field & Town. It’s been a good five years plus since I really sat down and listened to Hayden (MySpace), but revisiting his early record Everything I Long For, it’s easy to hear what drew me to the artist in the first place. Hayden’s demeanor on that record is one I wholly associated with at that time—mopey, sad, borderline depressed. But, in listening to his latest works contained within In Field & Town, it’s apparent we both have changed. Read More »Hayden: In Field And Town [Album Review]

The Guild League: Mouse Vs. Mountain [Video]

The Guild League

I cannot decide which item I’m more excited about, the free mp3 of “Dead Hour” or the video of “Mouse Vs. Mountain” by The Guild League. This band has been around a while and hints strongly of The Lucksmiths (thanks to their indie-pop nature, Australian home, and the frontman being none other than Tali White), and their following even includes… President Obama?

Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head: Glistening Pleasure [Album Review]

Natalie Portman's Shaved Head

Glistening Pleasure follows the path of other recent hyped artists like MGMT, Cut Copy and White Williams thanks to Natalie Portman’s Shaved Head (NPSH) adding in substantial dance-ridden glam, output through flambuoyant vocals and new-wavey keyboards. Guitar riffs hone in on the minimal—they lack full strums that plague many artists—thus, they encompass the definition of “riff” and are truly plentiful in soundscape.

O+S [Show Preview]

O+S

So far, I have simply labeled show previews as “Feature Band” articles. But with my induction of the pReview to that section, I’ve added Show Preview to the Live coverage (since I don’t check out as many shows these days). And the first band to feature the title is O+S, the new project by Orenda Fink (Azure Ray, Art In Manila) and Cedric LeMoyne (aka Scalpelist, from Remy Zero). Their upcoming self-titled Saddle Creek release will be out March 24, but you Seattle folks can catch them sooner. They’ll be playing Sunset Tavern on March 11. Read More »O+S [Show Preview]
