I'm going to Nice, France tomorrow (with YellowBird) and being on a plane is one of my favourite places to listen to music, especially during take-off. Thankfully I can hide the earphones with my hair so the air stewards don't see and make me turn it off :) We usually listen to the same album on our own ipods when we fly, sorta synchronised, and we usually choose a new release which we haven't heard yet, but we can't decide which album to pick this time. The flight is o... MORE

So, thanks to a fellow Mogger I found my "one and only savior" while reading an article about Jeff Mangum, which actually wasn't in a post about him or Neutral Milk Hotel but rather about Miles Kurosky. Anyway, I'll confess, my muscial repertoire isn't too expansive; I had no idea who Mangum was (gasp). But, I'm always intrigued by that which I know nothing of and took my musical naivety to the streets, well to the Web, to look further.Here I found, among the very album ... MORE

I have sunburn all over and my copy of In The Aeroplane Over The Sea has been resurrected. This counts as a win.

Have you ever had one of those moments where you're listening to a song, and the world just somehow syncs with the song you're listening to? I just had one of those moments, biking back home. It was amazing.

So I have a friend who is fairly new to the "indie" rock scene, having listened to the genre for the last 5 years but really not delving into it until very recently. Well Saturday while we were out catching a most excellent show (more on that in the next post) he proposed a challenge for me, asking me to come up with a list of 15 to 20 must have indie rock CDs all being from different artists that really define the history of the genre but that are also a little bit more o...

It seems to be an odd twist of fate that I recently finished reading the 33 1/3 series on "In The Aeroplane Over the Sea" by Neutral Milk Hotel and immediately came to realize that it celebrated its 10 year Anniversary on February 10th. The story of Neutral Milk Hotel is not like that of many other popular bands. At what some would consider the starting point of a successful career, the main songwriter, Jeff Mangum, walked away into the shadows of a breakdown. There was ... MORE

The first time I heard this track, it changed my life. My heartbeat changed. I may have stopped breathing. Few songs have ever triggered a visceral reaction in me at first listen, but this one did with ease.

I'm reading Food & Wine at In & Out, the kid this-close next to me is scribbling a post card, addressed to Australia. It’s the Hollywood kind, a big picture of the star-walk and the sign. The kind I might send, for the irony, if I were the kind to send post cards home. If I could remember to send post cards. I want to ask him if it’s all everything he hoped; I’d like him to tell me how it feels to have gotten here just now. I want to hear about packing, and planning, a... MORE

So i've been thinking about this lately, and i've officially decided and declared to my friends that My Favorite Band of All Time is no longer Led Zeppelin. This has nothing whatsoever to do with Zeppie, because I love them, but more to do with my accepting that despite the fact that this band has only ever actually released two (2) albums, I love them. Adore, really, if I'm honest. Anyhow, the band that will be replacing Zeppelin as My Favorite Band of All Time is:Neu... MORE

I can't explain how much i love NMH. I only have one of their songs "Communist Daughter" but by that song, i love em. they're just so good! ( i also know some of their other songs, i just don't own them ) They play everything from the drums to the saw. I don't know much about them, so if anyone knows more stuff, please tell! i'd love to know.

Athens-based Neutral Milk Hotel released In the Aeroplane Over the Sea in 1998, led by chief lyricist and songwriter, Jeff Mangum. The critically acclaimed album is a widely popular recording. A spiritually motivated work, it is conceptually based on the beauty to be found in the horrific fate of Anne Frank and similarly overwhelming tragedies. The album was highly praised by critics for its wildly inventive instrumentation, provocative and impassioned lyrics. Although i... MORE

Just got back from visiting my friend/checking out UGA in Athens.
I think I could picture myself living there. Nice little coffee shop. Nice little vintage store. Nice little record store with the new Ted Leo on vinyl.
I guess that's one of the top things on my "wanted in a college" list. A nice little music community. And I guess Athens has just that.
All this thinking of Athens reminds me of the Elephant 6. I think I'll go listen to some Of Montreal now.
