LONG PLAYERS OF THE YEAR: [22] Lindstrøm, “Where You Go I Go Too” (Smalltown Supersound)
December 21, 2008
[Photo by Lin Stensrud] We hate half-baked countdowns just as much as the next cynic. That said, self-titled couldn’t help but stare in horror as good but not great (Fleet Foxes at No. 1 and 2? Really?) albums top the lists of other publications. Here’s one of 30 selections from our rundown of wholly recommended […]
DOWNLOAD THIS NOW: TV People, “Pet Sematary” (Ramones Cover)
December 21, 2008
So we realize the Ramones are par for the Intro to Punk course and all, but the following Cars-worshiping cover is worth a listen if for no other reason than its shits & giggles status as the lead single off the only compilation self-titled‘s ever been affiliated with–a Ramones tribute we ‘produced’ with the lead […]
LONG PLAYERS OF THE YEAR: [23] Fuck Buttons, “Street Horrrsing” (ATP)
December 21, 2008

1MM: Cut Copy @ Modular’s Nevereverland Festival, 12.13.08
December 19, 2008
[Photos by Andrew Parks; click for slideshow version] While we’ve certainly covered Cut Copy before–see an S/T-hosted sparring match with their labelmates the Presets–Melbourne’s finest post-punk-as-fuck revivalists outdid themselves at the first stop of Modular‘s Nevereverland Fest. As predictable as their poses are once you’ve seen them a couple times (the electro-fied jazz hands of […]

THE S/T INTERVIEW: M. Ward
December 18, 2008
“I never adopt a conscious persona. The whole process is wrapped in mystery.” By Aimee Rawlins Although he’s been a staple on the indie scene for much of the last decade, some would say M. Ward is just beginning to hit his stride. If you ask him, however, it’s the same stride he’s been working […]
S/T Survived … Of Montreal’s Orgiastic Blend of Bowie-isms, Campy Costume Changes and Near Nudity
December 17, 2008
Photos/Text by Andrew Parks “I have the biggest hard-on right now.” To be clear, the straightest of males said that at the Music Hall of Williamsburg last night, having been gleefully exposed to Of Montreal‘s endless evening of pansexual theatrics and pitch-perfect indie pop. Hell, we were all left feeling a little flushed after two […]
1MM: Ladyhawke/The Whitest Boy Alive @ Modular’s Nevereverland Festival, 12.13.08
December 16, 2008
[Photos by Andrew Parks; click for slideshow version] Judging by her name alone–and her association with the rather glitzy, dance-centric environs of Modular Records–many people have assumed Ladyhawke is some electro-shocked vixen. As she told us in a soon-to-be-published self-titled interview, one magazine’s fashion department even tried to douse her in neon attire and glitter. […]
