Electrelane - The Power Out [2007]
2009-03-26 14:04:00
Artist: ElectrelaneAlbum: The Power OutYear: 2007Genre: Indie, RockWeb: officialMy fav album from this band, joyfully rediscovered in a long trip to Ushuaia a few weeks ago.They are not playing anymore - indefinite hiatus, they said - but the sounds worth the listen. 'Birds' is perfect for traveling and making love. 'The Valleys' is terribly sexy, 'Gone Under Sea' is power and eccentric, 'Oh Sombra' is happily rebel.. and a big etc, take a listen.Tracklisting:1. Gone Under Sea2. On Parade3. The Valleys4. Birds5. Take The Bit Between Your Teeth6. Oh Sombra7. Enter Laughing8. This Deed9. Love Builds Up10. Only One Thing Is NeededDOWNLOAD IT HERE!

epic indie prog
2009-03-10 13:33:00
World's Greatest Music writes...I rather like this band The Fine Arts Showcase from Malmö, and particularly their epic track Friday On My Knees. It reminds me of something Mark Radcliffe would have played in his Radio 1 days. In fact it reminds me of something specific he did play, Safesurfer, my favourite Julian Cope track. Read the Rolling Stone review of the album that contains Safesurfer.The Fine Arts Showcase - Friday On My Knees (Amazon)Julian Cope - Safesurfer (Amazon)

Antony & The Johnsons - The Crying Light
2009-03-08 02:06:00
Antony Hegarty pulls heart strings with melodies and vibrato on his new album, The Crying Light. His voice and mournful lyrics seem to fit the season, taking listeners through funeral processions and dark winter days. His lyrics begin setting a scene of loss, love and longing. The Crying Light is accompanied with acoustic guitars, violins ...

Sad Day For Puppets - Unknown Colors
2009-03-02 20:05:00
In these long dark days of the economic winter let?s take a moment to thank our lucky stars for Scandinavia, the geopolitical region that continues to churn out brilliant pop records to brighten up the constantly perpetuated forecasts of gloom. Hell, even their downbeat exports are comforting, and Swedish indie nymphs Sad Day For Puppets ...

Beirut - March of the Zapotec/Holland
2009-03-02 00:00:00
Zach Condon is the Tintin of modern American indie. Under the name of Beirut, armed only with his trusty ukulele and trumpet, the plucky cub musician has bravely journeyed Into The Land Of The Gypsies (on 2006 debut Gulag Orkestar), caroused in The Paris Of The Golden 20s ( 2007’s The Flying Club Cup) and ...

Indie atau mainstream?
2009-02-26 18:27:00
"Kok aku ngerasa 'indie' ini jadi mainstream ya?"Itu celetukan adek saya ketika kita lagi menonton TV dan kebetulan muncul iklan motor Yamaha Soul. Waktu itu Widya nanya ke saya maksud iklan itu apa, dan saya bilang kalo 'Soul' itu buat generasi indie. Generasi yang anti-kemapanan. Generasi yang ga mau ikut gaya pop/populer/mainstream. Ibaratnya, yang namanya band-band pop, boysband dan lain-lainnya yang orang banyak tau itu udah 'ga banget' deh. Ya anggapan "gue ga mau ikutan yang orang lain udah ikutan. Gue mau gaya gue sendiri." Sebenernya sih istilah 'indie' itu saya tau dari dunia musik. Label indie. Label milik sendiri, ga nunut sama major label (Universal Music, Sony BMG dan lain-lain) -- hoho, gaya, mentang-mentang thesis sendiri XDNah, abis saya ngomong itu Widya nyeletuk celetukan di atas. Dia ngerasa kalo gaya 'indie' ini malah jadi mainstream. Tiba-tiba semua orang ngomong "eh gue indie lho!" Dulunya kalo indie itu dianggap aneh, kere, miskin, norak dan cupu se...

Cat Power - Dark End of the Street
2009-01-02 06:22:00
Artist: Cat PowerAlbum: Dark End of the StreetYear: 2008Genre: IndieMaybe I'm too addicted to her or this album is really good. Some time ago I would say my fav albums were Myra Lee and Moon Pix because they were sad and intense and honest, and if I wanted to say something to the world I would say exactly that.. but once you learn to love what she's doing now, you cannot stop listening it, and probably you will forget the previous things. She's getting better which any new album. Pay attention to 'I?ve Been Loving You Too Long' and then tell me..Tracklisting:1. Dark End Of The Street (James Carr, Aretha Franklin)2. Fortunate Son (Creedence Clearwater Revival)3. Ye Auld Triangle (The Pogues)4. I?ve Been Loving You Too Long (To Stop Now) (Otis Redding)5.

The Best Indie Rocker Christmas Song That Is Not An Old Standard, "Rockin'
2008-12-01 19:04:00
So far today, the tally of Run Run Rudolphs and other overplayed/underliked Christmas songs is pretty low, but that's because I've only been listening to Christmas music for about 30 minutes now. During that time, I've heard one Run, Run Rudolph and one Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree, plus a Santa Claus Is Coming To Town.Why the reliance on standards and the three main Christmas rock songs, I keep wondering, when other songs do just as good at exemplifying how we'd like our holidays to go, and how they actually go. Other songs like today's song, The Best Indie Rocker Christmas Song That Is Not An Old Standard, "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree' "Jingle Bell Rock" or "Run Run Rudolph," which, despite being an indie rocker song, manages to capture both the Christmas-we-want and the Christmas-We-Get:It's "Everything Is Gonna Be Cool This Christmas" by Eels:How This Song Demonstrates A Classical Christmas (as shown in "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" & "A Christmas...

Castanets - City of Refuge
2008-11-13 04:55:00
Scrolling slowly across the radio dial 50 years ago in the desert southwest must have sounded something like the latest album from Castanets, complete with bursts of static and white noise. City of Refuge is an eerie, archaic record, and even the CD version sounds as though there’s years of thick dust packed into the ...

The Dears - Missles
2008-11-12 16:17:00
Even before you listen, Missiles seems like one of those albums that could signal a band’s finale. Most of the Montreal-based Dears departed during the recording, and when you finally get to the sprawling soundscapes that dominate the disc (most tracks clock in at more than 5 minutes), you get a clear sense of its ...

Arcade Fire: Canada?s Most Intriguing Indie

No refined, coyness here - these rascals are face-slappingly brazen. Ways To Make It Through The Wall gets WAB, WAD ...

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

De esta premisa parten un grupo de amigos malagueños para organizarse y crear una fiesta Indie en la misma ciudad de la que en tan solo 7 días han colgado el cartel de "todo vendido". Las entradas han volado como la pólvora, simplemente mediante reservas en la web, sin necesidad de una tirada enorme de carteles o múltiples puntos de venta, lo que realmente ha funcionado, ha sido el "boca a boca" o mejor dicho el "link a link". La ilusión y las ganas han servido de impulso para montar una fiesta en la que pinchará dj. Amable y djs. locales.

There is a sense that the business of independent rock music was founded on a sense of pure, unadulterated pop.
