The New York band’s seventh studio record features Foxes">Fleet Foxes frontman Robin Pecknold , who provides vocals on the track “No One Ever Sleeps.”  NPR has this “First Listen” of Heaven for you as of yesterday.

Entre os grandes lançamentos  que agitam a indústria do indie rock para o verão (hemisfério norte), certamente Walkmen">The Walkmen tem um peso importante nessa balança. O disco Heaven (capa acima), sexto de estúdio do grupo (ou sete se contar o disco pussy cats  de covers), será lançado dia 29 de junho, via Fat Possum/Bella Union, o álbum tem a participação do frontman do Foxes">Fleet Foxes, Robin Pecknold na [...]

How good is this? Just sensational. With help from Robin Pecknold!

I’m really liking the production on these new Walkmen songs for the upcoming album Heaven, has a great live feeling to it. Leithauser and Pecknold should do more songs together, the mix of the rough and the smooth goes well together.

Here’s another taste of the Walkmen’s upcoming album Heaven. This time around the track features a contribution from Foxes">Fleet Foxes’ Robin Pecknold. It’s a lot more folky thank we’re used to expecting from the Walkmen. In fact they may have out Edward Sharped Edward Sharpe on 2012 albums. [via 24B]

Walkmen">The Walkmen are a seriously busy band, seemingly constantly either touring or recording new material, and sometimes doing both. In keeping with this image the band have been releasing a constant stream of material from their upcoming album 'Heaven', which is out on the 29th of this month. The latest of these songs is called 'We Can't Be Beat', and it displays a bit of a different side to the outfit, featuring Robin Pecknold on backing vocals and much softer instrumentation than we're used to hearing from the American band. It's rather beautiful.

We’ve heard the title track among other previews of the new Walkmen record, Heaven, and now for a taste of Foxes">Fleet Foxes frontman Robin Pecknold’s guest turn as backup vocalist. As with Pecknold and Co.’s Helplessness Blues, this Phil Ek-assisted set opens with thoughts on aging: “We Can’t Be Beat” finds Hamilton Leithauser reflecting on “golden dreams,” [...]

Como ya hemos venido platicándoles, los muchachos de Walkmen">The Walkmen están prácticamente a semanas de publicar Heaven, su séptimo álbum de estudio (sí, séptimo ya), del que hemos tenido algunos buenos adelantos y muchas fotos hogareñas, pues la banda ha decidido utilizar foto “familiares” para los promocionales del mismo, algo que no suena tan alocado si pensamos que una de las influencias de este material fue su reciente paternidad y los cambios que esto ha traído a sus vidas. De la placa ya tuvimos oportunidad de oír el tema que...

Another song dropped off Walkmen">The Walkmen’s forthcoming album Heaven (out June 5th via Fat Possum). With the tracks I've heard, this sounds like it could be another album of the year contender. “We Can’t Be Beat” features Fleet Fox Robin Pecknold on backing vox. Have a listen... Here's the title track... Here's "Heartbreaker"... Pre-order the album right here

Fat Possum Records is pleased to release "We Can't Be Beat," the lead track from Walkmen">The Walkmen's upcoming album Heaven , on May 29th. The record is the band's sixth and was produced by Phil Ek (Foxes">Fleet Foxes, Shins, Band of Horses) in Seattle. The band just celebrated their 10th anniversary and are still comprised of the same members that started the group in 2001 - drummer Matt Barrick, multi-instrumentalist Pete Bauer, singer Hamilton Leithauser, guitarist Paul Maroon and bassist Walter Martin. The Foxes">Fleet Foxes' Robin Pecknold sings harmonies on two songs on the record.

Walkmen">The Walkmen’s sixth studio album, Heaven, is coming out in just three short weeks. They’ve just released “We Can’t Be Beat” (featuring vocals from Foxes">Fleet Foxes’ Robin Pecknold) to stream, and it only adds to what’s been released so far, solidifying the record as one to watch out for. It wouldn’t be too surprising if Heaven [...]

Am 18. Mai erscheint das Drittwerk "A Different Ship" des amerikanischen Quartetts Here We Go Magic via Secretly Canadian. Als Vorgeschmack präsentieren sie nach dem Stream ( motor.de berichtete ) das Video zur Single "How Do I Know". Vor kurzem zeigte die Band um Sänger Luke Temple bereits ihren ersten Clip zu " Make Up Your Mind ". Die Platte der New Yorker wurde von Nigel Godrich produziert, der zuvor bereits für Künstler wie  Radiohead an den Reglern saß. Herausgekommen ist auf dem aktuellen Langspieler eine Melange aus melodiösem Elektro und Folk, der zwischen hypnotischen Synthie-Klängen sowie Lo-Fi-Akustik changiert. Die Zukunftsvision von Regisseur ...

The new video for Here We Go Magic’s’s latest single, “How Do I Know,” is a quirky love story between man and woman…and machine. Directed by Sean Pecknold (yes, he is Robin Pecknold’s brother), the video is set in hazy Palm Springs and features Janet Pants as a delightful dancing robot. If this doesn’t put [...]

Serious talent must run in the Pecknold family because Sean Pecknold, brother of Robin Pecknold (Foxes">Fleet Foxes), directed the highly entertaining new music video from lo-fi psych-pop band Here We Go Magic. Their song, "How Do I Know," with its swirling guitars, simple Destroyer-esque melodies, and and insanely catchy chorus has been growing on us ever since we first heard it, and this video makes it even better. An elderly man's jealous wife demands that he destroy his cheerful dancing robot, and
