The Zookeepers biffed out our number one record of 2009 - Ballin’ Outrageous. Think of all the amazing records this year - there is a shitload of them - and in our opinion Ballin’ Outrageous is better than all of the rest of them. Here are The Zookeepers favourite albums of 2009, handily arranged in alphabetical order. Good to see they’re not afraid of including their...
As yall know from the popular website calendar.blogspot.com, the year 2k9 only has 2 months left. The annual music cycle is ‘officially over’ and will be dormant until the first major indie album release in 2k10. This means ‘we’ as an altosphere need 2 do our best to reflect on the year that we just lived, and try 2 analyze which album/artist/mp3 we want to be the...
‘Dark Was The Night’ is a double compilation in support of the Red Hot Organization - an international charity dedicated to raising funds and awareness for HIV and AIDS. If you take away the obvious reason for buying this album and concentrate on the actual music, you come away with a decent round up of the current of cream of the US indie/alt scence. A 31 track album is always...
Our favourite masters of noise HEALTH have come up with their own top 10 of 2009. Feast your eyes after the jump. 1. PICTUREPLANE Travis Egedy a.k.a Pictureplane a.k.a Captain Experience a.k.a The Man With The Golden Cock is a man from a mostly unknown incredible scene in Denver, Colorado.

Dirty Projectors MP3s

Anna from London popsters My Tiger My Timing has taken time off from exercising her vocal chords to give the Devil’s blog an insight into her influences, the strangest place the band have played and her tips for saving money. The Devil: Why My Tiger My Timing? What other names did you ponder before deciding on this? Anna: ‘My Tiger, My Timing’ is a song by the New York...
A couple weeks ago, we brought you an exclusive, new Adam Green track, "Rich Kids," in which Green strums comically about "life and Codeine with the tonality of a burnt-out bluesed-out uncle of Nick Cave." This week, to change it up a bit, we had Mr. Green craft a playlist of his favorite RCRD LBL artists. His RCRD LBL selection has a light, optimistic air to it, comprised...
As you may have noticed, along with the lack of posts going on around here, the Graboid has seemingly disappeared as well the past couple of weeks. To catch everyone back up to speed, I’ve decided to post the album releases from the past few weeks that we’ve missed along with everything from this week. I’m sure I may have missed some releases, but I think I’ve covered...
One of the bright spots in my overpopulated RSS reader is David Byrne’s reguarly-updated blog. If you’ve never been there, go take a look. There are no pictures of stuff you can’t afford and the writing is unsurprisingly insightful and informative, so when this track between Byrne and Brooklyn’s weirdo-pop deans Dirty Projectors surfaced yesterday from Red Hot’s...

Dirty Projectors Reviews

This has really been a breakthrough year for The National. After years of quietly putting out great records, they’re have really arrived. They’re now sitting comfortably in that elite class of top tier indie rock bands with High Violet hitting #3 on the album charts and the band selling out large-sized theatres (including legendary venues like Radio City Music Hall) across...
This is a review of a music festival, but it may not be be much like the other reviews you read in newspapers or other, cooler music sites. These are mainly about the bands, as the writer flits from performance to performance, trying to cram as many short reviews of different acts without being too overcrowded. Usually, if it’s a good review, they’ll also try to convey some of the...
