Asobi Seksu To Release “Hush” On Polyvinyl Records Feb. 17th 2009
While Asobi Seksu’s creative core explored music at an early age (lead vocalist/keyboardist Yuki Chikudate got standing ovations at child prodigy recitals when she was just 8; guitarist/vocalist James Hanna bounced between sludgy hardcore and Mogwai-schooled post-rock in his teens), their potential ‘career’ wasn’t put into perspective until a stint at the Manhattan School of Music. And by put into perspective, we mean finding out what they didn’t want to…

Pre-Delegitimization
I believe all people are generally good, and almost all the people in my small village have the best of intentions, and would love to live in a world of perfect peace and harmony. These people work hard every day and many have a lot more experience in the real world than I do. The people of Brewster, Ohio, for the most part do a great job of raising their…

None But Ourselves
Has a song ever made you cry? I feel this is a question of utmost importance in determining whether or not one experiences empathy.

X-Rated Fusion Liqueur (34 Proof)
I know that Hpnotiq is a major type of drink with the college set, but X-Rated Fusion is in many aspects a step above Hpnotiq. This is due to the composition of the liqueur, which ties together vodka, blood oranges, mango, and passion fruits into a cohesive and robust liqueur. The alcohol content (34 proof) means that this liqueur is equally good in and of itself, and as a mixer…

The Beach Boys cross paths with The Flaming Lips on Brass Bed’s “Midnight Matinee.”
Driven by a wide spectrum of influences, the music of Brass Bed moves easily through an eclectic mix of genres. From alt-country ballads and progressive rock hooks, to sticky-sweet, heart-felt lyrics, and dissonant experimental freak-outs, their unique mix of intelligently designed compositions has left some critics describing them as something akin to “The Beach Boys crossing paths with The Flaming Lips.â€
