New music reviews

Ya you should be buying it. If you’re a fan of Radiohead its great.
But even if you’re not a fan why not buy it. Show the music industry that you don’t need twenty different layers of middleman sticking their finger into the pie. This direct download is the way of the future. If only a […]

Jose Gonzalez the super smooth Swede is releasing a new album this month. You can hear most of the tunes on his myspace page right now. He’s touring heavily to promote the album which could lead to some good sales but I see him suffering from that hell hole of broadcasting. What format does he […]

Yes thats right. I found out that the Great Lake Swimmers are offering a free download of a show in Toronto. Ok its only only five songs but its great stuff.
The link takes you directly to the download from nettwerk records click here. The file is about 31MB.
The songs are VERY well produced for […]

One thing that came out of the whole SXSW experience are the differences that you’ll notice when you look for a recording studio. I’m not just talking about the hourly rates.
There are plenty of studios that you can choose from when you are looking to record something. With the advent of more computer based recording […]

I forgot to mention this somewhat funny story regarding my friends trip down to SXSW in Austin, Texas. As everyone knows the music industry invades Austin during March for the South by South West music conference.

Ok the Arcade Fire album is good. Might not say really, really good but you should pick it up.
One thing to avoid is the Arcade Fire myspace site if you don’t like spam. Their myspace has one song from the new album plus three older ones. But their comments section is one big f&*^ing joke. […]

Whole crap. Its so not crap. It good. Its awesome.
Look for new Soulsavers with Mark Lanegan coming out in March. The album is called It’s Not How Far You Fall, It’s The Way You Land. I’ve heard the first single Revival. It might just break big, like huge. If Arcade Fire and Coldplay fans grab […]

I got some major heat from some Arcade Fire fans/friends once they saw my post.
Don’t I read all the press. All the music magazines love Arcade Fire? Didn’t I check out all the music magazines best of awards? How could I go against all the positive press being published everywhere?
Well if you take a close […]

Looking for the new Arcade Fire song. Well one of the new tunes from the new Arcade Fire album was played on the BBC this past weekend.
The new Arcade Fire album is called Neon Bible and its due to be released this spring. I’ve read that it will be out in April. The album was […]
