Marla Hansen/The Forms/Doveman/Elvis Perkins/The National @ Music Hall Of Williamsburg, Brooklyn 10/12-13/07

Took us a few weeks, but finally we hopped the L across the river and had ourselves a night at Bowery Presents' renovated-Northsix digs. Actually, we had ourselves two of 'em -- on account of the National's drawing power,...  CONTINUE READING MARLA HANSEN/THE FORMS/DOVEMAN/ELVIS PERKINS/THE NATIONAL @ MUSIC HALL OF WILLIAMSBURG, BROOKLYN 10/12-13/07»

New Elvis Perkins Video - "While You Were Sleeping"

Unlike "All The Night Without Love," there's no sign of Mr. Perkins's backing band, Dearland -- this one's meant just for Elvis, casting him as a throwback folkie with full moon eyes, mismatching socks, and excellent penmanship. In the end...  CONTINUE READING NEW ELVIS PERKINS VIDEO - "WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING"»

Bonnaroo: Saturday 6/16/07

If Friday's 'Roo music trolling left something to be desired, Saturday's lineup was more than just compensation. Of course it was all about the Police, but seeing the Lips' laser-pointered psych carnival and a triumphant, hippie-conquering blowout from the...  CONTINUE READING BONNAROO: SATURDAY 6/16/07»

SXSW: Thursday In Austin

Not sure what the contributing factors were, but it seemed like everybody was a little frustrated yesterday down at SouthBy; people showing up to the right day party at the wrong time, jumbling their schedules, taking wrong turns in what's...  CONTINUE READING SXSW: THURSDAY IN AUSTIN»

Elvis Perkins Live MP3s

Artist To Watch Elvis Perkins just saw the re-release of his debut gem Ash Wednesday, a must have for fans of contemplative folk and morose, acoustic dirges. Not to say there's no levity to Elvis's tunes, but the pall of...  CONTINUE READING ELVIS PERKINS LIVE MP3S»

New Elvis Perkins Video - "All The Night Without Love"

The instant-vintage cinematography of this clip for one of Artist To Watch Elvis Perkins's many shining Ash Wednesday moments suits the troubadour perfectly, distilling his blend of casual, boheme arrangement (how many songs can you name with harmonica and harmonium?)...  CONTINUE READING NEW ELVIS PERKINS VIDEO - "ALL THE NIGHT WITHOUT LOVE"»

Artist To Watch: Elvis Perkins

Fuss-worthy folkies just don't come easy. But from the deep morass of capos and acoustics we have Elvis Perkins's Ash Wednesday, a stellar debut from a rising NY singer-songwriter. Double bass, harmonica, and strings color these lyrical laments, but the...  CONTINUE READING ARTIST TO WATCH: ELVIS PERKINS»

Band To Watch: Blank Dogs

Blank Dogs are actually singular: It's the insanely prolific one-man Brooklyn-based band of Mr. Blank Dog. We don't know too much about the biography of the guy behind the bedroom new-wave pop/punk and he's usually covering his face with masks...

Premature Evaluation: Oasis - Dig Out Your Soul

Pushing Noel off a stage in Toronto might bruise the erstwhile Oasis mouthpiece's ribs (maybe even his spirits) and cause the band to cancel a show or two, but nothing can stop the slow procession toward a new Oasis album....

OldStand: Rolling Stone, September 13, 1984

Take our ink-stained hands and join us at the OldStand, where Jon McMillan goes to remind everyone what an honest-to-goodness music magazine is supposed to look like. Lots of Huey Lewis (and the News) news lately, so let's go back...

The Outsiders: Vol. 19: The Blithe Sons, The Ivytree, Varghkoghargasmal

Not all of Stereogum's favorite sounds conform to what folks expect us to cover. In this space, resident Bananafish fetishist Brandon Stosuy focuses on bands, albums, singles, and villages in Sweden that may otherwise pass by unnoticed. This installment's virtual...

The Postmarks - "11:59"
