Watch Bear In Heaven Video For “Autumn”

Bear In HeavenOne of the most underrated albums that I’ve come across this year is from the Brooklyn based experimental pop outfit Bear In Heaven.  The band’s fourth studio album Time Is Over One Day Old was released earlier this month, and I can’t get enough of it.  The album is currently my #1 album of the week on my Spicy Six CD’s list.  Earlier this summer the group released the first single, the spectacular track “Time Between.”  This week the trio shared the incredible  follow-up, “Autumn,” the lead track from the album.  Both of these tunes are fantastic and sure to make my favorite tracks list at the end of the year.  Enjoy both videos below and decide which one you think is best.  Do your ears a favor and pick up a Time Is Over One Day Old, you can thank me later.

Enjoy the video for “Autumn” here:

MTV Premieres Documentary “No Cameras Allowed”

14/08/29 at 4.13pm   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

MTVMTV, your source for all things music….. will premiere the documentary “No Cameras Allowed” tonight (Friday August 29) at 7pm West Coast Time.  The movie follows James Marcus Haney as he provides details on how to get into some of the worlds best music festivals without a ticket.  What’s more, dude not only gets in for free, but also finds himself backstage with some of the biggest acts on the festival circuit today.  As mentioned, the show is on MTV, if you haven’t watched MTV since the days of 120 Minutes, it can be found on channel 331 on DIRECTV, or check local listings.  If your cable provider doesn’t offer MTV… dial them up and  say I WANT MY MTV!

I’ll be watching, maybe Mr. Haney will provide some insight on how the HAIM sisters never paid for Coachella in their life.

Overview of the documentary courtesy of MTV:

NO CAMERAS ALLOWED is a documentary that follows James Marcus Haney’s journey of breaking into music festivals and inserting himself into the world of some of the biggest names in the industry – Mumford & Sons, Jay-Z, and Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros. But Marcus isn’t your average “festie” kid. He’s a guy with a love of photography and filmmaking and a deep passion that drives him to do nearly anything to see his favorite bands perform. Often using his camera as a prop to sneak into festivals, Marcus ultimately comes away with raw and intimate footage that impresses even his world famous subjects. Marcus puts his future – and his love – on the line for a chance to tour with Mumford & Sons, leaving the only place he’s ever called home and embarking on a cross country road trip. As Ted Dwane, Bassist for Mumford & Sons, puts it “the access and perspective he is so hungry for is what makes his images so unique and compelling and the force that propels this behavior is deep within him and pure.” It is indeed this drive that makes his quest so innocently unadulterated, separating him from the others, and allowing him in when he really should have been kicked out. No Cameras Allowed is an intimate, honest, behind the scenes look at world-renowned artists from the perspective of someone who was never really invited, but was always asked to stay.

Broken BellsJames Mercer and Danger Mouse aka Broken Bells have released a video for the track “Control,” from the group’s 2014 release After The Disco.  The two have been touring relentlessly since the album’s release, and have two nights booked at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles in late October.  I haven’t spun this compact disc all summer, shame on me, but I’m positive After The Disco will be included in my top albums of the year when the time comes.

Watch The War On Drugs Video For “Under The Pressure”

14/08/22 at 7.57am   /   by deepster19   /   0 Comment

The War On DrugsOn many of the mid-year best of 2014  lists I’ve run across, The War On Drugs are the sexy pick for album of the year.  The Philadelphia based indie rockers third studio album Lost In The Dream was stuck in my compact disc player for most of the summer, and should finish in my Top Albums of the year list, but that’s a fun post for another day.

The opening track from the album is the tune “Under The Pressure,”  the band was nice enough to share the video this week.  You can watch the entire eight minute and fifty six second masterpiece below.  This tune has to be one of my top five favorite songs of the year.  I won’t hold being from Philadelphia against them.

Pet Aid 2014: Portland, Oregon

14/08/13 at 7.54pm   /   by deepster19   /   2 Comments

Pet aidThe 2014 Pet Aid fundraising concert event was held last Sunday afternoon in the scorching heat of Portland, Oregon in the beautiful surroundings of Sellwood Riverfront Park.  Portland’s alt-rock radio station 94.7 fm coordinated the event and donated a portion of proceeds to benefit Multnomah County Animal Services (MCAS). MCAS is the only open door shelter in Portland, and is the primary agency responsible for lost pet care, animal abuse investigations and animal rescue.

20140810_130154The fine folks at the local radio station chose some of today’s hottest buzz-worthy alt-rock bands to join in the festivities, so I’m told.  The day got started with the Stockholm, Sweden synth-pop band NONONO (pictured left), lead by frontwoman Stina Wäppling.  The Swedish group set the tone for the day when they got the prompt arriving crowd jumping with their electro-pop dancefloor anthem “Pumpin Blood,” off their debut album We Are Only What We Feel, released one month ago.

Next up was the Orange County, California quartet The Colourist.  Someone should inform the band that it’s only cool to purposely misspell the word “color” if you’re from anywhere other than the U.S.  The current pride and joy of the OC provided a relaxing set tunes from the band’s debut self-titled LP that was released back in March.20140810_153134

The highlight of the day came from the third band to take the stage, SKATERS, a New York City garage rock band.  The group performed a high energy set of tunes mostly from the band’s debut album Manhattan, including the single “Schemers” and the crowd pleasing”Deadbolt.”  Look for SKATERS (pictured right} this fall when they come to a city near you, they’re scheduled to provide support for The Orwells upcoming North American tour. SKATERS by far delivered the best set of the afternoon, and I can only assume they were all the rage around the water cooler down at the 94.7 studio headquarters on Monday.

20140810_164355 (1)Wild Cub (pictured left), the Nashville, Tennessee by way of Portland, Oregon band had the unfortunate task of following the SKATERS set.  The indie-pop quintet did their best to provide a fun, foot tapping set led by multi-instrumentalist frontman Keegan DeWitt, a former resident of the city of roses.  Mr. DeWitt’s set not only included the alt-rock chart topping single “Thunder Clatter,” but was also laced with Wikipedia style Portland banter between every tune.

By the time Bear Hands (pictured bottom right) hit the stage for their late afternoon headlining set, many of the Portland hipsters had just about enough of alt-rock and the sun for one day.  What was left of the crowd were treated to the Brooklyn based band’s  hit single “Giants,” as well as other soon to be alt-rock classics from their 2014 sophomore album “Distraction.”20140810_181344

Thirst was quenched by Laurelwood Brewing Co., a local craft brew fave . The beer garden was packed all day long as the brewery’s offerings included their Mother Lode Golden Ale, Pale Pony ISA, Free Range Red, and the delicious Workhorse IPA.  Laurelwood Owner Mike De Kalb and his staff serviced a nonstop flow people the entire day with a generous pour of 5 dollar beers.  Yeah, you read that right, good beer for only 5 bucks, instead the usual crappy beer for 9 bucks at a music fest, what a novel concept.  It appeared as if the beer was more popular than the music, I could be wrong.
