Listen to PHANTOGRAM’S Black Out Days

Sharing the crown with other New York-based, synth pop duos like School of Seven Bells, Sleigh Bells and Purity Ring, PHANTOGRAM, Josh Carter (vocals, guitars) and Sarah Barthel (vocals, keyboards), are carving quite a reputation for themselves in the electronic scene. Their 2011 release “Night Moves” is a catchy variant on the sometimes too abstractContinue reading “Listen to PHANTOGRAM’S Black Out Days”

MITNG’S Videos of the Week

KATE BOY- THE WAY WE ARE This group really is one of those matches made in heaven. With Kate Hurst on vocals and Swedish song writing/production team Rocket Boy (Hampus Nordgren Hemlin, Oskar Sikow Engström, and Markus Dextegen) backing her up, I use that term lightly, Kate Boy continues to astound. Seems they are goodContinue reading “MITNG’S Videos of the Week”

Tame Impala covers OutKast

I had to share this video I saw on Stereogum this morning. It’s of the Australian band Tame Impala doing a cover from Outkasts’s 2004 release Speakerboxx. The song is “Protoype” which describes Andre 3000‘s relationship with a woman that is so dope, he considers her the predecessor for all women hence “The Prototype”. TheContinue reading “Tame Impala covers OutKast”

Listen to Stephen Brodsky’s EP – Hit or Mystery

If one things for sure, it’s that this is definitely not what Cave In sounds like. The Boston post-hardcore band’s front man, Stephan Brodsky has a new EP coming out on April 16th on Little Black Cloud, and it is killer good. Hit or Mystery has this psychedelic-folk atmosphere, but it’s not the kind that comesContinue reading “Listen to Stephen Brodsky’s EP – Hit or Mystery”

Scheduled for March 26th, Comedown Machine will be indie rocker‘s last album on their record label, RCA, which was announced on one of the band member’s facebook. Watch for their first single, “AllContinue reading “The Strokes announce new album, Comedown Machine”

Video for Bob Dylan’s “Duquesne Whistle” is delightfully real

I have to agree with Stereogum’s Tom Breihan assessment of this video in that it goes places you never expected it to go. Love can make a man do silly things things the woman he’s trying to get may never know. Bob Dylan lays down this ukulele alcohol induced diddy about Duquesne PA while thisContinue reading “Video for Bob Dylan’s “Duquesne Whistle” is delightfully real”
