OCELOTS INFEST INDIE ROCK
2008-09-29 18:34:00 I?d never heard of The Ocelots before they sent me their latest album, ?The Cellar and the Ghost Have Let Us Down,? with an October 7th drop date. What?s it like?Well, it?s a lot like indie rock: Lyrics about death and drama, really fast drums, and grinding guitar with hot hooks and riffs. There?s nothing that makes this band unique, but they?re very good at what they do. And I?m sure they?re great live. If you like The Dead Milkmen, indie Modest Mouse, The Walkmen, or old REM, I imagine you?ll dig this, too.Particularly cool are ?To Keep The Blood Flowing? and ?Fight a Tiger,? which is hysterical. ?I?m gonna finda tiger, I?m gonna fight it now, I?m gonna find a tiger, I?m gonna eat it?s heart out.? A strange, punky, careening adventure, complete with a shouted chorus. Fantastic.This Elephant Is Not Thirsty, It's On FireThe Truth About SailingBonus!Fourth Time Around (Bob Dylan cover)-Calexico

Rilo Kiley: Well-Crafted, Well-Recieved Indie-Rock
2008-09-10 02:55:00 Rilo Kiley are a restless lot. They adopt countless musical styles, switch labels with nearly every release and make time for solo careers. Even within a single song, the LA band can jump from theme to theme. The group began as a duo of former child actors Jenny Lewis (vocals, keyboards, bass) and guitarist Blake ...
Modest Mouse: West Coast Indie-Rock Icons
2008-08-10 23:56:00 If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to set West Coast indie kids’ hearts aflutter, the ingredients include equal parts emo(tive) singing/shouting and a Built to Spill sense for congenial musical atmosphere over pop succinctness. Washington state’s Modest Mouse takes an oblique approach towards communicating the most direct of feelings, letting songs dip far away ...
Music Review: Holy by Love as Laughter
2008-07-07 12:37:00 While they have been together for over a decade Love as Laughter?s new record Holy is their first on Isaac Brock?s Epic imprint Glacial Pace. While the group hails from Brooklyn, New York, Holy sounds like it could have come out of the Pacific North West during the early 1990s. This is not a surprise considering that Love As Laughter ...

The Best VersionS of "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" Part 2: The Best Indie Rock
2008-03-19 14:40:00 TBOE continues celebrating March "coming in like a lion, going out like a lamb" by presenting The Best VersionS of "The Lion Sleeps Tonight." Okay, it's a weak justification, but I love this song and so do a lot of other people.Is it fair to call REM an "indie" rock band anymore? It was true, no doubt, when REM was releasing "Radio Free Europe" with lyrics that nobody could understand, and albums titled "Document No. 5," unless it was called "Document," and it was the 5th album? (Indie bands do that all the time. The Violent Femmes, who I love, released an album called "3." It was something like their fourth or fifth album.)But can REM still be an "indie" band when they've been around longer than the Beatles? When everyone, really, knows who they are except maybe my dad, who stopped buying music when "Saturday Night Fever" came out? Can REM be an indie band when they've released the song "Stand" and remade one of their songs to include Muppets in the lyrics?You probably think I'...

Indie Rock Roots Guitar Jam
2008-02-21 03:28:00 Hey ATOMIC fans. Here's my first post since last December. I'm starting to get a little itch to get back and rock out with you on this blog. I recorded this jam the other day when I was getting back to some of my Indie Rock roots. What I mean is just playing experimental but melodic guitar. Kind of like with a creative edge. I don't know if you'll dig it or not. Can't put my finger on what it sounds like or what bands influenced it, so I just called it "Indie Rock Roots." Play mp3

The Triangle's Mid-January Indie Rock Shows Low-Down; Save Your Money?
2008-01-17 09:38:00 There are always plenty of shows to see in Durham-Raleigh-Chapel Hill, North Carolina area, commonly called "The Triangle."Upcoming performances include shows from Eberhardt, Butane Variations, Leon Russell, Lotus, Big Head Todd and the Monsters and Yeasayer.Despite their relative popularity right now in the 'underground' music world, Tri-Cities music critic Grayson Currin isn't expecting much from Yeasayer (who made many best indie songs of 2007 blog lists with the release of All Hour Cymbals):Sonically, Yeasayer isn't far removed from the Technicolor melodic phases of TV on the Radio or the hard rhythm-versus-smeared sound technique of Animal Collective, but its apocalyptic images emerge from its sonic mess without much punch.(What do you really think!?)And if that wasn't enough, the tell-it-like-it-is (TILIS), Yeasayer-naysayer Currin also slams the venue owners of MGMT @ Local 506 for booking Yeasayer:New York nothings with major-label moneys who fall in the same why-does-t...
