Crystal Castles – “I Am Made Of Chalk”

For some reason I never bothered to get to the end of Crystal Castles’ 2010 album II, which is a shame because it had this gem at the end of it. A perfect album closer.

Ariel Pink – “Black Ballerina”

Even though I don’t really dig a lot of what this troll says on the internet and in the media, I dig this song a lot, along with the rest of the album. The chorus is just killer and has … Continue reading →

Hungry Cloud Darkening – “Hold This Moment”

This record is gonna go under the radar for a lot of people this year and that’s a shame. These dudes come from the Phil Elverum camp of Anacortes, WA and have served as his touring band in the past. … Continue reading →

Quirke – “Break A Mirrored Leg”

There was a huge burst of activity around this dude when this song first came out in the middle of the year, but then everything died down. I still think this is one of the best songs of the year … Continue reading →

Porches – “Forgive” (ft. Greta Kline)

I saw this band on Saturday and they blew me away so much that I bought this 7″ for $10. It’s probably the most I’ve ever paid for so little music, but like, it’s worth it. Check this song out … Continue reading →
