Speaking of snoozers, have you heard the new Radiohead?

In addition to watching golf and tennis on TV, I might add most of this album to my list of things that put me right down for a nap.In addition to watching golf and tennis on TV, I might add most of this album to my list of things that put me right down for a nap. ...

I finally kinda "get" Beach House

Never got it before - kinda put me to sleep. Now I think I get it. It's hard to stop listening once you get started. I'll put the track up later.Never got it before - kinda put me to sleep. Now I think I get it. It's hard to stop listening once you get started. I'll put the track up later. ...

The Poison Tree Album

Thanks to Everybody Taste for The Poison Tree. This is worth a listen or two if you got the time, as are the other two tracks Everybody Taste has up. Matt says the album is out some time in March. It's March!

Tapes n' Tapes Play Jackpot

Tapes 'n Tapes play Lawrence Friday night behind their new one, Outside. Jackpot Saloon to be exact (A skinny, otherwise crappy bar on Mass St. Who's their booking guy anyway? Delta Spirit? Elvis Perkins? He knows something about the indies.)

Not going to the show. Taking the kiddies to GWL, but I'll be listening anyway:

This site has made its peace. It is going the way of print media.

Meet Kurt Vile

[[posterous-content:pid___0]]

Got an email from the Kurt Vile people today. They say go listen to his new disc before it's out (release is next Tuesday 3/8) on NPR First Listen. OK I'll do that.

Quick rundown on Kurt:

• He is/was in the band The War On Drugs. They are good. They released the Future Weather EP last year. If you're new to them, start with that for sure.
• His solo stuff has similar production value but the melodies are headed in a different direction, the mood is different and there's a little more space between instruments. 
• War On Drugs is definitely a little easier on the first-time ears. (Track for sampling below.) 
• He's out on tour with his other band, The Violators, now.
• The War On Drugs is also on tour in different cities on the same nights so I'm guessing Kurt won't be there. Oh well. Good tunes.
• He's a prolific music-maker.
• He's from Philly. [[posterous-content:pid___1]]

James Blake - Lindisfarne II

Sorry, still trying to figure this whole thing out. This is a repost. I'm going to post these tracks for streaming for a while, but want to be respectful to the artists, so I'll take em down after said while.

This is my fave new track off the new James Blake. Again, it could easily be a Bon Iver track! The whole Blake album is good if you like this sort of thing:
