flashlights - “choking”
can we talk about how awesome this band is?
RIYL: superchunk, desaparecidos, bands that seem to be made up of very talented children.
merry christmas is going to release a split with these guys sometime next year and it’s going to rule. also, they make us look like really sad old guys.
THE MERRY CHRISTMAS CD EP IS FINALLY AVAILABLE. HOLD IT IN YOUR HAND AND PRETEND IT'S 1995.
seriously if you buy one, let me know and i’ll send you awesome prizes.
also, this will probably be released on 12” with some extra songs sometime at the beginning of 2012.
ryan adams - “two/clementine (elizabethtown session)”
this version is sorely missing neal casal, however it’s gorgeous in its own way.

“CALIFORNIA: the greatest state in the union”
bold claims from a jury service instructional video.

pavement - “chevy (old to begin)”
Original Frodus bassist Jim Cooper and Shelby Cinca go instrumental exotica/surf/spy… An album filled with silhouettes of swaying palm fronds, hints of espionage and exotic parallel universes!
Includes the musical sequel to the Frodus’ track “Purvis Dawson in the Sucatash Room” from the 1995 album “Fireflies”!
knew i loved it within the first minute.
genius.
