All posts for the month December, 2014

I really like Amphibious Man.  Most of there stuff that i’ve heard has this grungy garage rock feel.  But they just released this new digital ep that is heavy on the ambient noise and I like it lots.

This video is just adorable.  But just as importantly, it comes from this Pitchfork post that includes a bunch of videos from Yo La Tengo through the years.  And hey, it’s all worth checking out as one might expect from a bunch of Yo La Tengo videos.

I sort of love xmas music.  I mean, I get bored with a lot of it. But i’m always looking for new and interesting tunes to enjoy the season too.  This version of Deck the Halls?  Awesome.  Funny thing is, I can’t figure out how I know this band or why I liked them on facebook.  But I did and they posted this.  So i’m happy.

Do America a favor.  It’s Sunday.  This song is beautiful.  Proceeds go to support arrested protestors in Ferguson.  Buy it.

Atmospheric slow burners from Whitney Johnson, of Verma fame.

So, Bad History Month has this new split casette that they did with Dust From 1000 Years.  I bookmarked it a couple of weeks ago to post.  I think I was sick at the time and conscious enough to know i’d want to post something, but not conscious enough to know what I wanted to post.  Anyhow, I wound up posting this tracking from Dust From 1000 Years instead.  Because awesome.

Simpson caps off his absurdly successful year by taking his cover of When in Rome’s “The Promise” to Late Night.

I’ve had this open in a tab for a week.  Saw it somewhere.  I like it.  Very seasonally appropriate.  Again.  And from Montclair, NJ, which is close to the original jim home.
