Deer Tick – War Elephant (re-issue)
So just a quick one today as I am just on the go (or something along those lines) and I apologize for not giving this release the full attention and praise it should get. The Album is “War Elephant” from Deer Tick, a great release from last year that was just re-released 2 days ago…

Scott Cooper’s Tiny Increments
So, Remembrance Day is here (well in the Commonwealth at least) and on this day of reflection, I am sitting at home (no work today for me) and listening to something that almost got away from me. The Scott Cooper beauty “Tiny Increments” from 2007. And I have to be honest about this as well. …

We/Or/Me – Ghostwriter EP and other gems
I have an EP that you should want to buy. No, scratch that, I have an EP that you will buy. I know this because if you are here, you are clearly a connoisseur of all things quality. You will have no other choice to fork over your hard earned (or not so hard earned)…

Dustin Gamble
So in lead up to J. Tillman’s new album being released tomorrow (wow, I think I must have a man crush on Josh, due to the last few posts…), I have a bit of a “J. Tillman in the making” in Dustin Gamble for your listening pleasure today. I stumbled across Dustin’s MySpace profile while…

A Western Vinyl Playlist
Sorry for no post yesterday, but I have a big one today (and inspired by yesterday and no posting…). Well yesterday I received an advance copy of the new J.

Twin Cats – Up North (2008)
Some Monday listening for y’all today in the form of Joseph Murphy’s “Twin Cats“. While Murphy is not new to creating and performing music, this is a bit of a new project for Murphy. “Up North” as an album feels and listens like a transition to something new, a beginning of Twin Cats itself (both…

Jason Anderson – Life Sucks Love Sucks Dose Out
Just a quick one today for you Sunday Bloggin’ folks. This one is quick, but worth stopping and listening to. I have been a bit of a fan of Jason Anderson (or Wolf Colonel at one point) for previous albums such as “The Wreath” in 2005 and “Tonight” in 2007 released on K Records. Anderson…

John Statz
I find myself in a bit of bounty of good music lately – I know, there are worse things, but it can be overwhelming. You end up listening to soo much that it is hard to actually listen, I mean really listen. This is why I am posting on John Statz – I had a…

Brian Borcherdt – Coyotes (2008)
So I don’t know why I have been waiting on this release for this long. I have been telling everyone I can about how much I love the new album from Brian Borcherdt. I tell you people, this album is probably my #1 album this year (go ahead start judging me!) – but I don’t…

A daily discovery – Solomon’s Hollow
Well my daily discovery a few weeks back will be your daily discovery today. Ladies and gentleman, I bring you the rolling stone named Nate A. Nate currently records and performs under the guise of “Solomon’s Hollow” – and if you take a look at his MySpace page you will find out the name is…

Little Bear – Army of Trees EP
Little Bear has a great little release in the form of a 4 track EP entitled “Army of Trees” that is recently collected, recorded and released for all to have. “All to have” as it is a complimentary download! We all like free music, but I think we often push aside free music as “not…
