New Miles Kurosky (Ex-Beulah) - "An Apple For An Apple"

thumbnail icon: New Miles Kurosky (Ex-Beulah) - "An Apple For An Apple"

Ex-Beulah crooner Miles Kurosky has himself a MySpace and a new song (and a bird). Tipster Ferg tells us other Beulah alum Bill Swann sent the link to the band's mailing list. And, as Kurosky writes in a post over at his MySpace titled "Cinco de Mayo 2008," with a Current Mood of "virginal":

Hello Friends, it's May 5th and I'm officially on Myspace. How did I ever live without it?? Anyway, I've posted a song called "An Apple for an Apple." I think it's the final version, but who knows, it could change. Hopefully you all like it. That's all, XO, M.

Nothing more needs be said. For those of you who miss the San Francisco E6-ers, it'll be a good reminder of those halcyon days, especially the mid-tune sing-a-long and continual build. Listen.

Holy crap, this is great. Anyone but me get the feeling he's been listening to Islands?

When will the world at large finally recognize this guy?

Wow....I was just talking with some friends the other night about Beulah and wondering what ever happened to Miles.

This sounds fab. Glad he's still churning it out!

Quit Your Day Job: Ungdomskulen

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...

Premature Evaluation: Beck - Modern Guilt

It's been some time since we learned Modern Guilt, Beck Hansen's eighth album, would be some sort of psych rock minimalist '60s trip with Danger Mouse. Since then, we've gotten a look at the old-school jazz/Blue Note-style cover art and...

Damien Jurado - "Murderer" (Low Cover)

After hearing "Gillian Was A Horse" from Damien Jurado's forthcoming Caught In The Trees, we contacted the Seattle singer-songwriter and asked if he'd want to premiere a track at Stereogum. Lucky for us (and you), it turned out he had...
