Stream a New Titus Andronicus Song →
(via WFMU)
In addition to directing fantastic music videos for such artists as Ted Leo & the Pharmacists and The New Pornographers, New Jersey’s Tom Scharpling hosts an awesome radio show on WFMU that’s simply called “The Best Show on WFMU.” On last night’s special extended broadcast, Scharpling debuted a new song by the Jersey punk group Titus Andronicus with...
mtfarrell answered your question: Pitchfork Music Festival Announces Initial Lineup + Dates
If yr parents are going to let you go to Chicago for a fest, hold out for Lolla. Most of these bands are coming/just came thru the northeast
I was thinking about Lollapalooza as an alternative possibility this year, but honestly, Lolla’s recent lineups have been kind of lame overall. I think that...

animalnitrate asked: so tumblr wouldn't let me add any more characters to my answer but to finish my thoughts, i feel like feist is an odd choice for a headliner. all that being said though, i feel like you should still go. the whole festival will probably be such a fun experience for you and im sure they will add more great acts!

Sufjan Stevens Announces New EP with Son Lux &...
Well this is just about the most exciting news I’ve heard all year. Fresh off the tour behind his landmark 2010 record The Age Of Adz (my #3 AOTY of that year), Sufjan Stevens has just announced the formation of a new musical project with two Anticon artists, Son Lux and Serengeti. The project, appropriately named s / s / s, will release their debut 4-track EP Beak & Claw on March...

legateandhisblog replied to your post: you should do a vlog!
You were not too bad in Anthony’s video.
That was very stressful for me because Anthony is rather intimidating when he gets down to business making videos. I think if I were to do another video with him sometime I would be more comfortable with it. Thankfully I’ll be interning with him again this summer so I should have...
I think I would be okay at vlogging but I don’t really have the time or the desire to do it. I used to do a vlog on here whenever I picked up a large number of records but I haven’t done that in at least 6 months. I think I would do a vlog right now if I weren’t so busy listening to Pinkerton and not doing homework.

thisishowyouachieve replied to your post: PIANOS BECOME THE TEETH live at The Space. Hamden CT. 2.25.12
tl;dr version: “i’m going to tag as many irrelevant bands that didn’t play last night as possible to drum up readers”
Actually, all of these bands played last night. If you had read the review or even glanced at the flier you would have recognized that.

PIANOS BECOME THE TEETH live at The Space. Hamden...
Shows like the one I saw last night don’t happen every day in Connecticut. Actually, shows like last night probably don’t happen every day anywhere. But every once in a while — maybe only a handful of times in a given year — the punk stars align and the necessary pieces fall into place for a truly stacked punk rock show here in the Nutmeg State. The show last night...

April 21st at the Webster Underground in Hartford. I knew they’d keep their promise! I guess this means I won’t be seeing all of you at the Brooklyn show the day before.
View the full list of tour dates over at their tumblr page.
rhysrhys asked: There is a big difference in how the sound is recorded. Digital software works in 1's and 0's, and have in built limiters in the way they record and produce sound. Digital does not have these kinds of limiters in built so you basically get as full a scope of what the artist was doing at the time of recording. Basically, it produces the closest to live sound due to no digital limitations.
Anonymous asked: Is there a notable difference between vinyl and CD or is it just a placebo effect?

They performed a minimalist, acoustic version of “1576,” the...

cheerdown replied to your post: how do you feel about why?
God damn am I ever excited for their new album this year.
As am I. As I mentioned in my review of that show last year, their new songs sound great, and I have very high hopes for the record. I think it has the potential to be the true followup to Alopecia in a way that Eskimo Snow wasn’t.
