Not sure this counts as news as such but Pitchfork are doing a Top 200 tracks of the 90s. As pointless as it is, the links to the track do provide a good excuse for some nostalgia.
Bonus points for this and this |

Nice to see Flagpole Sitta get a proper recognition, it bears repeated extended listenings to.

Anyone remember those My Bloody Valentine re-mastered/deluxe CDs that were due out? Yesterday?
Well release date has been put back to at least March 2011! Whoopee fucking doo. |

We used to wait (The Wilderness Downtown). An interactive Arcade Fire video.
LOVE this. Just whack in the postcode of where you grew up and let it all unfold. Best viewed in Chrome. This post has been edited by Everlong: Sep 1 2010, 10:13 PM |

QUOTE (logger @ Aug 31 2010, 12:47 PM)  So we finally reach the top 20 today. Not a bad list in all, although it is from a decidedly American point of view. This line form the piece about Beck's "Loser" got me though, Great as they are, even the biggest overground U.S. hits on this list bear little resemblance to what credible music sounds like today. I literally have no idea just what credible music is supposed to be now. Indie-playlist with a folk tinge? Anyway, it's not bad as stupid lists go and it has given me the opportunity over the last few days to listen to some songs that I hadn't heard in a while. |

Next year, The Flaming Lips are doing a tour just playing The Soft Bulletin, supported by Dinosaur Jr playing Bug and Deerhoof playing Milk Man.
Sounds good. £45, but so tempting. |

Not news but I didn't know where else to put it, how Tori Amos changed Mick Foley's life.

There don't seem to be as many women to vote for as men, and half of said women are utter crap. Mariah Carey, Beyonce, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, Adele?! But no Eva Cassidy?

I can report that the Everything Everything album is great. The only other one I've heard is Elbow, which is also great (obviously)
I've been hearing many good things about the King Creosote/Jon Hopkins LP, might need to check that out. |
