Quiet, Too Quiet

Month: April 2008

  • Monster Movie

    I found Monster Movie a couple years ago, but I started listening to them again this morning on my commute.  They have a bunch of songs that I like to put on repeat and just bliss out listening to.  Apparently one of its members used to be in Slowdive. You can purchase their albums from Graveface…

  • Twee Tuesday – Tullycraft

  • Singing Bridges

    It was rainy today so I googled for \”rainy day twee\” and found this.  Just what I wanted.  Apparently they are on Skipping Stone Records, which is awesome. Here is their website.  Check them out!

  • Shoegaze Sunday – Lush

  • rss versus atom feeds

    I just discovered today that my atom feed is broken.  If you had subscribed to it, I suggest resubscribing to my rss2 feed.  As a matter of convenience, I\’ve made the rss2 feed the only one available.

  • Morrissey

    I was blasting this from my girlfriend\’s car as I drove around my neighborhood today. I liked the song so much, I blasted it twice.

  • Friends With You

It appears it\’s two guys who also make little toys and giant balloons based on the creatures in their videos.  They also had some anime-inspired thing about penguins living in medieval Japan.…

  • The Smittens

    I heard The Smittens for the first time at last year\’s NYC Popfest. I immediately bought both their albums and a tshirt. Their music is a little goofy and over-the-top, but I love it. It\’s just pure, good, clean fun. I\’ve include two songs from their latest album, A Little Revolution, which I think really epitomize…

  • Kevin Devine show photos

    I finally uploaded the photos I took from the Kevin Devine show from last Sunday.  I hope you like them. I should probably also mention that his album Put Your Ghosts To Rest is being re-released by the label Procrastinate! Music Traitors. {wp-gallery-remote: gallery=0; rootalbum=3168;}

  • Space Needle

    I found this great old band yesterday called Space Needle. Apparently they existed for three minutes in the mid-90s. But luckily for them, and for me, someone heard a song and put them on a TV show I watched last night. What everyone needs to do is go to their myspace page and listen to the…
