Music Review: FM Belfast - How To Make Friends

I think I need to make a full disclosure. I love Iceland. I've never been, of course. But it's a place I feel as connected to as the bedroom. All those lovely pictures of Iceland's cities and fjords seem so magical. No, I don't work for a travel agency. ...

Music Review: Seabear - We Built A Fire

There must be something magical in Iceland that makes musicians from there want to perform some of the most idyllic tunes you've ever heard. And no, I'm not talking about those soothing melodies that Bed, Bath & Beyond sells. I'm talking about music ...

Music Review: Hot Chip - One Life Stand

British electronic dance pop sensations Hot Chip feel like one of those bands that have been around for what seems like forever. Oddly enough, Hot Chip also feels like one of those bands that just seems to get better with age. I wish I could say the ...

Music Review: The Swimmers - People Are Soft

After their acclaimed 2008 debut Fighting Trees, The Swimmers decided to somewhat reinvent themselves for their sophomore album. People Are Soft is the result of self-imposed isolation that had the four members (Steve and Krista Yutzy-Burkey, Scott ...

Music Review: Chris Garneau - El Radio

I would be shocked if singer-songwriter Chris Garneau's music hasn't already been featured on Scrubs. If it hasn't, then I expect the Boston-native to be heard at least once during the show's upcoming ninth season. And no, that wasn't a plug for a show ...

Music Review: Langhorne Slim - Be Set Free

Langhorne Slim gets its name from the small Pennsylvanian town that lead singer Sean Scolnick grew up in. Langhorne must be some place special since it inspired Scolnick with a sunshine-filled attitude. Okay, he might not be that rosy or happy, but on ...

Music Review: Devendra Banhart – What Will We Be

I have a hard time trying to define him, his music, or his true intentions for being on this planet. It's a stretch, I know, to start to question an artist's sanity let alone existence, but Banhart and his brand of "naturalismo" — or freak folk to the ...

Music Review: A Place To Bury Strangers - Exploding Head

Noise is about as subjective an adjective as the human race has ever come up with. One might liken a sound to fingernails on a chalkboard. My ears have never been overly sensitive, but I have to concede that some sounds are more aurally pleasing than ...

Music Review: T.H. White - Company Book

The kind of music T.H. White makes feels like what you would play in your head to get the adrenaline pumping before a hit or a score. It shouldn’t be all that surprising, then, that some of White’s work was featured on HBO’s The Sopranos. White is ...
