Once in a while, I like an album so much that it becomes difficult to write a post about. In this case, the album is the S/T debut by Pulled Apart By Horses—which I have been meaning to write about for months (3+) now. I guess I will begin by saying that Pulled Apart By Horses is a colossally incredible record!!!!!!! One can get a hint of the album’s/band’s wicked energy right from the opener "Back To The Fuck Yeah"—it is so delightfully loud and aggressive! It is then followed by an old favourite, "The Crapsons"—another fucking awesome loud one, and to top it off, the song is about Link (Zelda)! I can go on about how much I absolutely love each track, but let’s be honest, no one really want to read that! Pulled Apart By Horses is deliciously loud, heavy and aggressive. It is this year’s Grey Britain and without a doubt, one of the best albums of 2010! Ultimate power! Maximum life!
Here’s another song of the moment for this gorgeous Sunday afternoon!
Although summer is over, the spectacular Anamanaguchi continues to give away a new single every two weeks! The group’s latest release is "Mess" and you can download the track via BrooklynVegan. Also, go here if you missed my post on the incredibly wicked Scott Pilgrim video game soundtrack by Anamanaguchi.
I am very excited to announce that Surf City will release their debut full-length Kudos on November 30, 2010 through Fire Records. This will be the band’s follow-up to their kick-ass S/T EP released back in 2008. Listen to/download the S/T track off Kudos below!
Everything in Between is No Age's third full-length, and for the third time in four years, the duo from LA has wowed me with an impressively entertaining record! It is too early to say if the new record is better than the first two; however, it is safe to say that there are more songs to get excited for in Everything in Between. Here’s what I mean: While there are certainly standout songs from both Weirdo Rippers and Nouns, I mostly listen to both of those albums from start to finish rather than listening to selective tracks repeatedly. On the other hand, I feel the opposite with Everything in Between. Yes, the album is definitely incredible as a whole, but there are at least a handful of really stand-alone tracks that I have been listening to over and over again—especially "Glitter", "Fever Dreaming", "Sorts" and "Chem Trails". Otherwise, the new record is everything one would expect from No Age—loud, energetic... just pure awesomeness! Buy it!
