Run Dan Run The earnestness behind this album from South Carolina’s Run Dan Run is hard to dispute. The male/female melodies alone make it worth the price of admission. The album’s sound at times is reminiscent of what you would come to expect from a 10 piece collective, however, when you think you have their…

Ladytron It’s been a minute since we’ve heard from them, however, they have a tour set up late spring and it will be coming through town. They will be releasing their forthcoming album Velocifero (sounds like a Mars Volta song title) early June 2008. Thanks Ultra8201!Ladytron-Seventeen [mp3] Ladytron tour dates: 5/20, Edmonton, AB (The Starlite…
Batteries This group from Minnesota has created a song that I can’t stop listening to. The rest of the album has plenty of heart to be spread around and definitely good enough to make Paul Westerberg happy. Childproof [mp3]
Dog Day Two things come to mind when I think of the bands name. #1, Keanu Reeve’s band’s name. #2, the Al Pacino classic from way back when he use to make good movies.Their name is anything but Dog Day, however, more playful and a hint of moody undertones. The group will be doing a…

Jaymay Now we have a different songstress from across the pond. Her name is Jaymay. Today we celebrate the chanteuse. On top of having her acoustic guitar, she brings different arrangements and styles to her soft delicate voice. She has created a buzz in the UK already, and she plans to plant some seeds when…
Dawn Landes Kentucky folkie leaves the cornfields and open pastures in exchange for tall skyscrapers and subways. Her sound still has a twang twinge to it and it was recorded in Brooklyn. Her name is Dawn Landes and her new album Fireproof will be released March 4th. She’s currently on tour with ex-Drive By Trucker,…
Destroyer Tour & Album My affinity for the Destroyer albums grows more and more everyday. A bad Destroyer album doesn’t exist. Go ahead, I dare you and find one. By the by, he released his tour itinerary, and he’s making a pit stop here in Denver at the intimate Walnut Room. Write that down. On…
Fuck Buttons My love for the Buttons is not hidden.However, their album Street Horrrsing has a street date (March17th), a UK one, but a street date, nonetheless. Their beautiful yet terrifying landscapes that they paint are sometimes harrowing. I had written that they were going to tour with that other Fuck band, but somehow fell…
