Swans- "A Little God In My Hands"

        One of the last things I posted on this blog before I went on hiatus was my review of Swans' masterpiece of a record The Seer. It's been so long since that post that Michael Gira and the gang have recorded a new album entitled To Be Kind (due out on May 13th). The first song released for the record is titled "A Little God In My Hands", it features plenty of creepy, thought provoking lyrics that we've come to expect from Swans, a soundscape that is somewhat reminiscent of Rain Dogs era Tom Waits, and an overall eerie, claustrophobic feel. And I love every single moment of it. Also, just to entice you into buying this album more, special guests include Annie Clark (St. Vincent)!!!! I'm incredibly excited to hear the entirety of this record, The Seer was one of my favorite records I've ever heard, and with 2014 already producing some incredible albums so far, I wouldn't be surprised if this record is absolutely incredible. Check out the single below and put some money in the piggy bank to go and pick up the triple LP on May 13th, I know I will.

The Biggest Surprise/ News in New Music This Year. GY!BE Has A New Album!!!!!!!!

Hello squeezlets, earlier tonight I along with the rest of the world has discovered that the legendary post-rock band Godspeed You! Black Emperor is releasing a new album. This new album is entitled Allelujah! Don't Bend! Ascend!. This of course is the bands first LP since 2002 with Yanqui U.X.O.
The band is selling copies of the new LP as of tonight in Boston. Since like me, most of the world's GY!BE fans don't live in places they tour, the LP will be officially released by Constellation Records on October 15th for the fans in Europe and the 16th for the rest of the fans the world over. In the meantime you can either go over to Constellation Records and pre-order the new long over due LP or you can wait for the 15th/ 16th to come along (based on where you live) and pray that a leak comes soon.

Peaces, Stay Golden, (and never more importantly than in this moment now) Godspeed to you all,

Jack White Solo Debut Announcement!!!!!!!!!!

Well everybody, news that I am sure you have all heard came out today announcing Jack White's debut solo album entitled "Blunderbuss". I personally think that Jack White is one of the best performers of our generation and this album has shot straight to the top of my most anticipated list. I am now currently counting the days until April 23. Until then, at least for know, we have the first single off this new album titled "Love Interruption". I'm digging the track, but honestly I'am also kind of a fanboy. Tell me in the comments what you guys think of the track.

I hope the rest of you have a wonderful evening knowing that Jack White is coming out with a solo debut.

Peaces,

New song from Daniel Rossen's solo debut EP "Silent Hour/ Golden Mile"!

Hello everybody, I am very excited to tell you guys of a new song from Daniel Rossen. Daniel is most well know for his work with Grizzly Bear and Department of Eagles. This video is basically the new promo for his solo debut "Silent Hour/Golden Mile". I'm really digging the really personal feel to this song and I am excited to see what the rest of this EP holds. Unfortunately, Daniel nor anybody else from Grizzly Bear have mentioned working on new material. For now we can learn to enjoy/love this.
