(click this shit) NPR did an awesome thing and made this sampler of music from SXSW that they think is good. Well, not all of it is actually good, but props to them for using their reputation as leverage to make music freer in general. And trust me, the download is worth it.

Alice Glass presents herself in quite an appreciable way. I spent an earlier part of today looking into Crystal Castles, the band. I probably listened to their self-titled album every night last semester and was always at least a bit curious as to who put forth the androgynous, highly-affected vocals for the album. You can imagine how pleased I was to discover Alice Glass and all her

I recently realized that lots of the things I'd normally toss out as links, others would not properly appreciate. So I shall post at least four random links every so often with a brief description of their overall aesthetic, and you should click one or more at random and investigate them with my thoughts in mind. A lot of the links will direct you to music. Whoops, I love music. Of late I have

Beach House – Teen Dream5.9/10 I heard Beach House for the first time as the opening act to Grizzly Bear. I had never heard of them before and had not even known the name of the opening band to Grizzly Bear before the show. And so I had to form my opinion of them right then and there with nothing to influence me. I felt oddly devoid of pressure in making my choice, as though I had nothing to base

Hot Chip – One Life Stand4.6/10 Music’s societal role has shifted drastically since about the late 90s. Music, in itself, is no longer intended for intent, careful listening, but for pumping people up, and essentially, for evoking an aura of "coolness". Music is no longer about nuanced, unique elements that convey some abstract emotional feeling the artist feels he or she can best express through

The Dead Weather - Horehound4.1/10 I responded to the following review a while back... The Dead Weather Horehound(Third Man; 2009) Rating: 45% With Horehound, the blandest batch of music Jack White has yet been involved in, the audience is finally free to let go and move on with their better memories intact. Ignoring the prominence of singer Allison Mossheart’s chin, voice, and indefatigable cool
