Late To Reclaim

Posted Friday April 18, 2008, 4:10 am, Over one day old
Not his performance, mind you -- he's just being himself, albeit on the slurred and lazy side of the MES gray scale -- but rather the actual recording, which is basically one of the worst overdubs I've ever heard on a proper, non-lo-fi album.

I Would Like You For My Own

This may or may not be the actual Zooey Deschanel, but that's irrelevant -- she's so good at selling this persona that if it's at all a put-on, it's hard to spot the seams in her fabrication.

You Had An Animal's Grin

Clearly, much of that thrill came from feeling a bit in over her head, and that comes across in the music -- even at the song's boldest moments, she sounds like she's trying hard just to keep up with herself, much less this dude. Obviously, she has changed a lot, but what is he like now?

Memories and Fantasies

Britta Persson "Kill Hollywood Me" - Three of my favorite albums right now are essentially records about the relationship between fantasy and reality. Meanwhile, at Fair Game : I forgot to mention this last week, but our sessions with the Child Ballads and Peter Moren are both available now.

Disco Is Halfway To A Full Discontent

Much of Barnes' recent work has tended toward the abstract and purposefully gaudy, but he's extremely successful in conveying a great deal of emotional complexity in this song with only a spare arrangement and simple, straightforward lyrics. ( Click here to buy it from Green Owl Records.)

No Game, No Plot

Posted Wednesday April 9, 2008, 2:37 am, Over one day old
The Breeders "Walk It Off" - As far as I am concerned, the gentle rumble of a Kim Deal bass line -- whether she's playing it or not -- is one of the most consistently pleasurable things in all of music.

Full Of Your Love

Basically, this is one of those remixes that dares the band to be better. This track is such a thrill; I really do hope they move more in this direction because for them, it's the difference between being a nice little shoegazer band, and becoming one of the most promising pop bands in the country.

Too Much Information For One Brain To Sustain

Posted Monday April 7, 2008, 10:30 am, Over one day old
( Click here to buy it from Touch and Go.) Sally Shapiro "Hold Me So Tight" (The Cansecos remix) - Most Sally Shapiro songs -- whether they are album tracks or remixes -- tend to be extremely cold and aloof, to the point that the tunes become monochromatic and bloodless.

A Central Image

Do It! carries on from the experimentation with psychedelic elements that characterized their previous record, but this time around, the integration of hard psyche riffs and quasi-folk acoustic guitar is less forced, and the melodies and rhythms are more inviting and inspired.
