New EP of shimmering, tropical pop with a huge influence coming from the sound of modern psychedelia. Maybe we’ll call it “tripical” music. Too much? The band is Lord Huron. They’re from L.A., and the cover above is for their new EP, Mighty. The title track is

Pas Chic Chic is one of those bands PR folks shouldn’t have any problem promoting. The band’s various members have also spent time in groups such as Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Set Fire To Flames, and Fly Pan Am. All that stuff is well, nice, good, great, awesome,

This past Monday, I did a blogTV. There, one of my Needle Drops reminded the band Anamanaguchi still exists. They make the kind of 8bit music you might hear if Nintendo had programmed a game about Andrew W.K. in the 80s. Of course, the object of the game would
