Attack On Memory: Cloud NothingsFor many artists, there comes a point where reckless abandon, youthful exuberance and the noble art of writing a catchy pop song all fail to satisfy the artistic impulse. Traditionally, this should coincide with a newfound fascination with one or more of the following: acoustic guitars, gradiose arrangements, wistful balladry… you know the drill. It’s usually referred to as ‘maturing’ – supposedly the point at which a mere musician becomes a fully-fledged artist, and subsequently drops the idiosyncrasies that made them so exciting in the first place. In other words, it’s where the fun stops. That’s why it ...Clash Music31 January 2012

Sonic Masala's Best 40 Albums of 2011...One ..December of every year is the month of lists, where you get to see what people thought about the music of the past twelve months and either rant at said person's shit taste, laud your similarities, facepalm over forgotten gems, or scramble for something hitherto unheard of. But a list in January for the year before is more redundant than use by dates on a nymphomaniac's condom (sorry). Still, at first I thought that 2011 was a little low on the good music front, but after a sift there was some pretty killer moments. I'm sure things ...Sonic Masala21 January 2012

Music: Newswire: Les Savy Fav's Tim Harringt ..When Les Savy Fav frontman Tim Harrington isn’t performing with his band or picking out new leotards, he puts his Rhode Island School of Design education to use as an artist—both partnering with wife Anna on Deadly Squire , the Internet’s best source for oven mitts created by frequently topless indie rockers, and creating drawings and mixed-media collages. Now you can own some of that art yourself, all for free: Harrington is giving away 12 works from his personal studio, and for a chance to own one of them, all you have to do is send him an ...The A.V.

Jon Hillcock At ATP: Nightmare Before Christ ..Radio presenter Jon Hillcock heads to ATP: Nightmare Before Christmas Having spluttered and cursed our way up the A39 for an impatient hour, inches from a bumbling silver Punto, we arrive in Minehead for ATPs Nightmare Before Christmas later than planned. But we remain buoyant, even when presented with our chalet: a dim showerless box reminiscent of an American motel room of the type frequented exclusively by serial killers and adulterers in 1970s road movies. When we finally make it to Reds we witness Baltimore’s OXES deliver a handful of ‘respectful mosh-pitters’, a wilfully ironic cover of ‘Wild Thing ...Clash Music12 January 2012

Les Savy GalleryDid you know that Tim Harrington, lead singer of Les Savy Fav (pictured) and renowned shirtless destroyer of concert stages, is also a prolific artist?

Music Liberation's Top 10 Albums of 20111. EMA - Past Life Martyred Saints // Reviewed 4th July by Moker "Past Life Martyed Saints is an organic beast, seemingly fluid, changing with each listen. Anderson has gone headfirst into these songs and the results are so honest, so desperate, so vulnerable that by the time the superbly somber and well placed ' Red Star ' unfolds as the closing track, you’ll feel dazed; plunged into Anderson’s crazy world and gently escorted out the other side once the storm is over, wondering what the hell just happened. And you know what’s weirdest of all? It feels brilliant." || EMA 2 ...Music Liberation1 January 2012

In Photos: 2011 SpecialDecember of course sees the inevitable 'best of' lists, and given the wealth of coverage we've provided his year it seems like the sensible thing to do is to extend this collating experience to photography. We have a plethora of talented photographers that have contributed to The 405 over recent times and thus this compilation has proven to be an enormously tricky task; even the new monthly round-ups have always been a head-cracking experience. A good excuse to dig out those editorial knives from the communal cupboard and sharpen away voraciously. In 2012 we intend to expand the photography ...The 40528 December 2011

Recommends: David Wilson's Alternative Adven ..Director David Wilson is responsible for some of our favourite videos, including clips for Metronomy, Little Boots and Skream. To celebrate Christmas this year he decided to make an ' Alternative Advent ' - he's made 25 mini clips and soundtracked them with a fine selection of artists, including (so far) Caribou, Battles, Les Savy Fav, Little Boots and We Have Band. This week he's also featured our very own Van She . It's a fun clip in its own right, it's also a taste of things to expect from the boys next year. There are still another 10 videos ...Modular16 December 2011
