Frankie Rose

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

Frankie Rose has a reputation around Brooklyn. By reputation, we mean her minimal, Maureen Tucker-like beats and iconic presence in such buzz-stirring bands as Crystal Stilts, Dum Dum Girls, and Vivian Girls. Those groups spearheaded a scene that mixed the sounds of lo-fi garage, big reverb-drenched Phil Spector-produced 60s girl groups, the noise aesthetic of the Jesus And Mary Chain with a touch of Velvet Underground and a strong DIY ethic to create a sound that’s influenced a new generation of bands around the world.

At least that’s what she’s been known for up until now. As you’re about to hear on her new group’s self-titled Slumberland Records debut, Frankie Rose and the Outs have their heads in the clouds a bit more than Rose’s previous projects. Listening to the ghostly golden-oldie grooves of songs like “Girlfriend Island,” “Candy” and the pedal-pounding “That’s What People Told Me,” it’s as if the Cocteau Twins and Shangri-Las tracked a split LP with the help of a time machine and a freshly-acquitted Phil Spector.

Break a bone

Saturday, June 26th, 2010

Like the eardrum-shattering noise pop icons that came before them, Woven Bones blaze their own trail of lascivious loudness and controlled snarl that’s just what the world needs right now, and the perfect soundtrack to your screwed-up summer. The debut album, In and Out and Back Again delivers nine heart-stabbing hits that just keep hitting back, so without further hesitation, we give you the debut album that explodes heads on contact, by your new favorite band, Woven Bones.

The band from heaven

Saturday, June 19th, 2010

When you think about sunny Florida, the first connotation is Old Jews, and then, Orange juice, tropical weather, the ocean, Daytona beach races, and so on. The last thing I was expecting while going through this mail introducing ‘The band in heaven’, was to hear a band I`ll like. But then, from the very first fuzzy distorted guitar note, listening to those Velvet U like dreamy reverb soaked male/ female vocals, cheapo organs, distant effected drums, distortion throughout, I was smiling thinking about their old neighbors faces during rehearsal.

Twin Shadow`s Forget on Terrible records this coming fall

Saturday, June 19th, 2010

The verse B part on ‘I cant wait’, is such a wonderful Peter Gabrielish vocal line, There is a tremendous talent here, Twin Shadow could be huge. TS`s music was created and recorded mostly in his bedroom, with Chris Taylor (Grizzly Bear) of Terrible records sitting at the controls for final touches, producing his debut titled Forget, out this fall on Terrible records.

OBERHOFER with a killer track – 19 year old Brad with Away from you. Listen to the classic guitar intro riff. No wonder they tour with another hero of ours, Twin Shadow. These guys are young, but give them few years and I am sure we are for a real treat – remember that name – Oberhofer.
