Tiiiiiiired

Let me tell you about The Tellers. The Tellers are two boys from Brussels who make nice acoustic indie music. If you're a fan of The Kooks, you'll probably take to them.. catchy tunes, gorgeous vocals, easy lyrics. Libertines-esque, but much more twee. Get their S/T EP here.

A bit of good news.. Simian Mobile Disco's debut, Attack Decay Sustain Release is almost out (June 8th) on Wichita. I think that's my favorite record label. No, it is my favorite record label.. current anyway. Same as PB&J, CYHSY, etc. The album is pretty awesome, as you'd suspect. It has the singles famiar already (Hot Dog, Tits & Acid, I Believe, Hustler) plus some others unfamiliar, including Love (track below). The vocalist on Love sounds almost exactly like Clor vocalist Barry Dobbin.. that high pitched eccentric voice, though I can't say for certain, I could be completely wrong- let me know, if you know..

from the forthcoming album:

taken down at label's request. BUY THE ALBUM!



Pic courtesy of my crap phone.. haha, it's so pathetic looking. Saw The Cribs last night @ Mercury.. they were F ing great. Surprising me was support, The Jealous Girlfriends. Smokey vocals, interesting songs.. check them out if you've got a minute.

Also. If you live in NYC and would like to dance about, check out Extended Play this Sunday, spinning dance rock, new wave, 80s, pop, electro, and hip hop. Go. Do it:




Now, a report on gun control vs gun rights.. and then sleep. So..

Damnit

Gravity's Rainbow. I haven't finished the Thomas Pynchon novel yet, but I will. It's a personal goal. I have about 100-something pages left to go. Not too shabby..

Speaking of the song though, as if there weren't enough remixes already, here is Kavinsky remixing the Klaxons' very popular tune. I think it's what Gravity's Rainbow would sound like if it was specifically made for a Miami Vice episode.
The track will be featured on the Gravity's Rainbow single, out April 9 via Polydor. Get it when it comes out. Do it.

ALSO!!!
New from SMD, here is the Masseymix edit of 'It's The Beat', found on the It's The Beat single. Luke Vibert also does some fancy work on the track, which you can get here. It came out two days ago on Wichita. Niiiiiiiice.
