mp3 :: woven bones – sister ray (instrumental VU cover)

The great Raven Sings The Blues turned us onto this great Woven Bones cover. On K Radio, they got to fulfill their obvious Velvet Underground sonic boner fantasy by doing a really ripping version of Sister Ray. And it’s times like these when I remember that I actually like Woven Bones and forget that I have negative feelings towards them for whatever reason. Get this. It’s as raw and pulsating and ripping as they are live — which, if you’ve never seen them attempt to get on it. I’m pretty sure they’ll tour a bunch out of the latter end of 2k11 after their next album gets written and recorded. Enjoy.

mixtape :: goodbye england (covered in snow)

Monday, December 13th, 2010

I know all of my readers know the score: I’m from California (where it was 85 degrees yseterday) but currently in Brighton (where it’s balls cold all year long). And it’s the holidays, so I’m fleeing this cold arctic winter place for the milder climate, but I thought I’d pay tribute to England via a mixtape. I hope England appreciates the 10 minutes of effort I put into this (hey, I had to open up Photoshop and put text on the picture, okay?). But first, let me say that listening to cold, gloomy, depressing, “winter-y” songs when it’s cold is a fool’s game. The best way to keep warm when it’s disgusting outside (well, the sun is currently out but it’s still frigid) is to listen to the most summery songs possible. Now, do it:

01 The Barbaras – Summertime Road
02 Best Coast – Sun Was High (So Was I) (Demo)
03 Dead Ghosts – I Want Your Love (Live Tape 12″ Version)
04 The Strange Boys – All The Kings Are The Same
05 King Tuff – So Desperate
06 The Growlers – No Trees In The Desert
07 Chuck Berry – Oh Baby Doll (1957 Single Version)
08 The Beets – I Wish I Knew How My Life Should Be
09 The Beach Boys – Wouldn’t It Be Nice (Acapella)
10 Woven Bones – Your Sorcery
11 Sweaters – You’re My Sexual Friend (Mothering)

2010 roundup :: brianna’s picks top records/eps/songs

Tuesday, December 7th, 2010

2010 has been a pretty fun year for music. Every year, I discover more music, better music, and sometimes it cracks me up to see how my music taste grows and differs as the years go by, but I think 2010 has been a great year for new bands and kickass albums. I’ve compiled my list of 10 albums that I really loved, 5 EPs that just got to me, and then 30 songs that I’ve called Top Songs, but they’re just 30 songs that I liked a hell of a lot and came to me as I thought about it and scanned carelessly through iTunes. It’s interesting to note that half of my favorite albums are from California bands.

Guys, have you forgotten? I’ve been talking about this show all summer long, and it’s finally here! Woven Bones are playing Spaceland! Tonight Austin’s finest, Woven Bones, are taking the stage at Spaceland supported by the Meek and Catwalk with DJ Michael Stock of Part Time Punks. I’m sure it’s going to be an excellent show, if their last show I caught at SXSW was anything to go off of…

Woven Bones just visited KEXP in Seattle — check out their damn fine session.
