I CALL TO SAY I'M ON THE WAY

Pheonix - Rome (Neighbors with Devendra Banhart)

I FEEL THAT NOBODY'S LISTENING

Jack Peñate's Pull my heart away, released last month and comes with Jamie from the XX's remix. Both are pretty nifty, and i'm a little startled at how much Jack Peñate's new stuff is growing on me...


Jack Peñate - Pull My Heart Away (Jamie XX remix)

I had a chance to see The XX live a couple of weeks ago, glad that they lived up to all the hype, if you haven't already listened to their debut album you really should...and if you have a penchant for receiving free stuff by email go to their website and sign up for some.

I WISH I HAD A GENTLE MIND AND A SPINE MADE UP OF IRON

I am slowly but surely falling in love with St Vincent... New video for Marrow premiered on Stereogum today, well worth checking out.

THE ESCAPADES OF EMILY HAINES

Sorry for the lack of updates lately, times are busy but there will be a bigger post later this weekend... but for now ...

This wasn't initially going to be an Emily Haines centric post, but she would seem to be the common element. First comes the video for Games for Days, from Interpol front man Paul Banks' new project, Julian Plenti. The album Julian Plenti is... Skyscraper is out now. Anybody with an appreciation for Interpol should have a listen, similarities are many.



Secondly comes The Crystal Method, I know very little about this band other than this song has been stuck in my head for a week now...
