Olney Clark: Eccentric Modern Pop from the UK (+more)
Weird, expanding, reverberated, subtly-groove based and very unique on the whole. Check out Olney Clark, a two-piece organic pop duo putting together a number of pseudo-rustic songs for your listening pleasure. If that interests you, enjoy a free download of “Josefin The Writer”, a track off their self-titled debut, set for release on April 13th.
Free Mako Sica MP3: Download "I'Itoi" from upcoming "Dual Horizon" (+more)
Chicago’s MAKO SICA Dual Horizon LP available February 16. Band’s avant-psychedelia limited to 250, 12” vinyl on La Société Expéditionnaire, their new record label. Cool fact: Dual Horizon was recorded as a live studio session without overdubs: not a common way to do things, but makes sense when you catch a glimpse of their style. Side note: lead singer Przemyslaw is now the 2nd person I know with that name, pronounced (I think) Pish-em-ick. myspace.com/makosica

Video #395410908
A little over a month ago, I wrote a brief feature regarding Electric President’s impending new release, The Violent Blue. The record is still slated for a February 23rd release on Fake Four Inc — just under a week from today. This video is for the album’s title track, “The Violent Blue.” It starts out a bit slow, but builds up beautifully. I’ll be sure to post up some more mp3’s (and maybe even write a full record review) when the entire product gets released next week.

Harvard // The Inevitable and I - AR
Harvard are a band that graciously indulged my interest in them a few months ago. I’d asked them for a copy of their debut LP The Inevitable, and I and received a prompt response and soon after, a beautifully produced album literally stuffed with memorable song after memorable song. So why the delay in this review? PLS (personal laziness syndrome) from which I sometimes suffer, though here the real trouble was launching a buggy, new website. At any rate, please read on and learn about a band that is the future of the experimental indie rock world.

All The Day Holiday // Debut LP “The Things We’ve Grown to Love”
Who knew a band with such a common style and consistency could release an album that’s not only intriguing, but easy to listen to and get lost in. All the Day Holiday release to the masses The Things We’ve Grown to Love today, to much avail. What I assumed would be another Copeland look-alike is proving, with every listen, that their love for music and ability and enthusiasm for performance is more than skin deep.

My Epic
My Epic describes its sound as tender, raw, and full of emotion and that sounds about right - music’s kind of like a math equation, what you add to one side, results on the adjacent. Well, all the side effects of emotion, like “lameness” (for lack of a better word) are avoided to great length. The raw power they supply, which might have you guess they have a hardcore, gritty thing going on, is nothing more complex than three animated guys leaving it all out on the stage.

The Slant // “The Makings of This House” Review
The Slant’s “The Makings of This House” is emotionally driven, forward-thinking folk at its best.
