"Different Sides" by Leonard Cohen For “ Old Ideas ,” Cohen’s first new album since 2004 (studio album #12), the production is clean, crisp and sparse, with sharp focus on the vocals and ...Ryan's Smashing Life9 February 2012

Josh and Mer – Mind ControlDownload link is in the original post Sounds like: Rilo Kiley, Metric, The New Pornographers Song: Josh and Mer - Mind Control [download here ] What's so good? A few days ago, I wrote a track review on Josh and Mer’s sweet little song, “ From The Sea .” Now I’m reporting back with another teaser in the form of their newest single, “Mind Control.” This track is quite opposite from “From The Sea” but in a great way. It’s obvious that Josh and Mer are exploring the boundaries (or lack thereof) of this dreamy, euphoric indie pop genre that ...indie shuffle31 January 2012

Now, Now Hear ThisMinneapolis based Now, Now got their start fresh out of high school back in 2008. Since then they've traveled cross-country, gone on a European tour, shortened their name (formerly Now, Now Every Children) and have grown as songwriters and musicians. Their new album Threads is slated for release this spring via Trans Records. Produced by Howard Redekopp (Tegan and Sara, An Horse, New Pornographers), their emotive songs, paired with Cacie Dalager and Jess Abbott's delicate vocals make for a mesmerizing combination. Their single "School Friends" is a cool, downtempo track, feigning indifference about an unrequited love. Listen here ...SoundDessert19 January 2012

Blog-achella-geddon 2012!THE PUBLIC HAS SPOKEN! Okay, it was a very, very small percentage of the public, but still... they want some Blog-achella and who am I to deny them?

The Dude's Favorite Shows of 2011This past year in concerts was like the novel you pick up with few expectations that, in its own understated manner, quietly knocks your socks off by the time you turn that last page. None of this year's shows matched the bombast and spectacle of last year's Fire">Arcade Fire show at Merriweather Post, or the surreal Broadway musicality of Sufjan Stevens at The National in Richmond which, unless knocked from its perch, ranks as the greatest concert I've ever seen. Without further ado, here are the five best shows I saw in 2011: 5) Sharon Van ...MetroMusicScene.com7 January 2012
