Domino Releasing New Malkmus Single 08/28 Domino Records will be releasing the new Malkmus Single “Kindling for the Master” on August 28th.

The Damnwells – Air Stereo Sophmoroe slump may or may not have hit these alt twang kids, but I do remember a time when I thought they were the new hope , the carrier of Whiskeytown’s torch. The effort is valiant but may come a little short. I still find them enjoyable to listen to…
