Valentine's Day Indie, Alternative and Rock Songs of Love with Artwork from

This amazing illustration (above) is the work of a stunning Tucson artist simply named Milk. Her gallery of semi-avante garde artwork intricately blends elements of classic art styles with symbols of modernism that often reflect the darker and more disturbing side of love, loneliness and apparently substance abuse. Milk's art is simply memorizing, and it is no surprise that she is a favorite among indie bloggers, 'underground' artists and digital art enthusiasts. Milk rises above the sea of wanna-be artists and stakes her claim - even if it's with a pitchfork or a needle - as an accomplished, brilliant artist at a caliber worthy of being presented at trendy art galleries in Manhattan, Beverly Hills, Paris, Tokyo and London. Now on to the playlist of Valentine's tracks. For a number of years, I have been building numerous playlists categorized from alt country to world music, and every other possible category/theme in between - punk/hardrock; feel good; interstate; bad girls; ac...

Is Jens Lekman too quirky to break into the mainstream? His smooth crooning can sooth even the most jaded listener, and it's easy to see how his romantic sounds could appeal to a wider, older, less "hip" audience. He has called himself (here in the interview below) the "indie Frank Sinatra", although I have two arguments against that: 1. Jens's swagger doesn't have the tough streak of Sinatra's 2. Sinatra would probably never, even if the technology were available at the time, sing over a loop of his own beat-boxing as Jens does here. His newest, Night Falls Over Kortedala, is appearing on many year-end best-of lists, and also sees him exploring where he can take "crooner" music, encorporating various styles and offbeat musical elements. The combination of quirkiness (especially with lyrics) with pure pleasantness has won over much of the indie community, and it won't be long before a more mainstream crowd knows his name.Jens LekmanKEXP Seattle Nov. 6, 200701 The Opposite of Ha...

Jens LekmanNight Falls Over KortedalaAnoche desperté bañado en sudor, tuve un sueño en el que asesinaba a Jens Lekman a mitad de una firma de autógrafos. Odio a Jens Lekman y mi subconsciente ha dictado lo que debo hacer el día que me encuentre con el sueco.Night Falls Over Kortedala ha sido al fin lanzado de manera oficial fuera de su país natal, en cuanto destapé el disco y escuché la canción que abre, la cabeza me dio vueltas y tuve náuseas ante la envidia que sentí por él; ¿quién más puede jurar no besará a nadie que no le queme en el corazón? Yo no y por eso debo eliminarlo, no puedo aceptar que una persona tan noble y auténtica habite el mismo planeta. Con la letra de And I Remember Every Kiss, Jens Lekman ha firmado su sentencia de muerte; dale una oportunidad al pop y escucha con atención las palabras en la canción, no te llevará mas que tres minutos saber que Jens Lekman es un espécimen que canta de manera plana (véase la entrevista que Rulo hizo a Mo...

Jens Lekman: Night Falls Over KortedalaJens Lekman, the baritone-voiced Swedish singer songwriter, releases his second LP of new material. Jens Lekman is known for his singing as much as his sampling abilities.Although his voice remains the distinctive baritone it's always been, his sampling has matured. "I'm Leaving You Because I Don't Love You" sounds like a Kanye West beat while "And I Remember Every Kiss" has the lushness of an Avalanches track.The only thing anyone can really complain about with Lekman is his inability to write about anything but love. Unlike standard love songs, Jens generally finds an amusing way to write about it. "The Opposite of Hallelujah" features Jens worrying about his little sister's love life while "Shirin" is about his silent crush on his hair dresser.Is Night Falls Jens best album? Most would say so. I'm not so quick to judge. It doesn't have a stand out track like "Black Cab" but it is by far his most complete album.Rating: 8.3/10MP3:...

Secretly Canadian - 2.007 Especialmente recomendado.Llevo toda la mañana escuchando a este sweden croner y me siento feliz cuan pitufillo corriendo por un cesped sin segar, y enemarado, aún no se de quién, pero enamorado. Voz empalagosa hasta la diabetes y melodias con arreglos cuasi discotequeros, campanillas y teclados analógicos, todo ello al servicio de un pop barroco y remántico en un primera parte, para tornarse en un pop radiante y sin concesiones en la segunda mitad del lp. Me encanta este disco que pondrá a la venta Secretly Canadian (no podía ser de otra manera) el 9 de octubre.No te pierdas el magnifico "Your Arms Around Me", con un toquecillo a lo Smith pasado por el filtro sueco, en un disco que va de menos a mas como marcan los cánones y que ha presentado sus credenciales a uno de los mejores del año. "The Opposite Of Hallelujah" "Into Eternity" "If I Could Cry (It Would Feel Like This)" "Your Arms Around Me"

When I found out a couple of months ago that Jens Lekman was going to release a new album, the butterflies in my stomach were tripping like hippies on an amphetamine-aided acid trip. I was turned on to Lekman's music in 2005 by his utterly glorious Oh Jens, You're So Silent, a compilation of EP tracks (our man has issued copious numbers of EPs). I still prefer it over his fine full debut, When I Said I Wanted To Be Your Dog (2004).And so I approached Night Falls Over Kortedala with much indulgent good will. I was delighted when Jens started off in vintage Scott Walker-mode (for all his vocal limitations, Jens is Scott's natural indie heir) on "I Remember Every Single Kiss". I tapped my toes, aggressively out of rhythm for all the excitement, when "Sipping On The Sweet Nectar" revealed itself as a Philly Soul groove incorporating strings that belong to the theme of a ’70s TV cop show. I loved "The Opposite Of Hallelujah", which I had heard before, for maintaining the happy ’7...

This is great! I was waiting a good album to write a concerned blog post. Believe me, doing a blog writing even if you have no desire is something you can't stand for. When i hear a new great record, the words flow that way. You love talking about something worthy, this is what i inspired writing... [[ This is a content summary only.

Segundo album de este cantante Sueco. Es un disco con un pop sinfonico con algo de drama en sus letras. Es del gusto de los afamados criticos de Pitchfork ya que lo incluyeron en su lista de Best New Music con alto rating.WebsiteCritica

Night Falls Over Kortedala, el nuevo trabajo de Jens Lekman hace referencia al barrio donde el músico reside en Gothenburg, y esta mas cerca del pop de los Magnetic Fields que de la pose songwriter folk con guitarra. Algunas bases electrónicas, trompetas, flautas, ritmos caribeños y bastante soul. Mucho me hacen acordar sus últimas composiciones al Pet Sounds de los Beach Boys. Arranca con ?And I Remember Every Kiss? tema que habia logrado escuchar gracias al blog El Baile Moderno, y recuerdo que decian que deberia estar en algún disco, a mi parecer ?A Postcard To Nina? es la canción cumbre del disco, sencilla y perfecta canción pop, que ya había sido tocada varias veces en vivo. Y asi sigue su rumbo el disco, otra muy acertada obra del sueco, quizás la más contundente, con menos altibajos que los anteriores, pero dejando bastante de lado aquel Folk melancólico.Por Hoy Comí Sandia-a-a-a1.

OMG this song is so retro and cheesy. It is almost similar to Whino, but with more grit. The song starts off with a wonderful sax, which sounds so bad it’s good. After the sax their is some vocals on top of a wonderfully out of tune piano. This song is genius! It makes me ...
