Sarah Jaffe - Suburban Nature (2010) by WE ARE THE SLEEPYHEADS : Contact Info today
(Indie,Folk,Alternative,Singer-Songwriter)
Sarah Jaffe is thrilled to announce the upcoming release of her
debut full-length album - Suburban Nature. Due out May 2010 on
Kirkland Records, the album was produced by John Congleton
(Polyphonic Spree, Explosions in the Sky) who also produced
Sarah’s debut EP - Even Born Again. The intensely intimate EP was
released in August 2008 with limited distribution and earned
Sarah a number of accolades including a feature on NPR’s “Song of
the Day” for the title track and saw her winning several awards
at the 2008 Dallas Observer Music Awards: “Best Folk/Acoustic
Act”, “Best Female Vocalist”, and “Best Solo Act”.
“The EP has a very stripped-down minimal vibe, it’s an honest
introduction. With Suburban Nature I wanted to stay true to what
each song sounds like live, but add some layers.” - Sarah
Jaffe
Suburban Nature will be most people’s introduction to this
incredibly talented 23 year-old singer/songwriter from Denton,
TX. However, Sarah has been turning heads with her memorable live
performances over the past couple of years. Currently on a sold
out tour of the UK and Europe with fellow Dentonites Midlake, her
performance at 2009’s Austin City Limits Festival earned her a
nod from Rolling Stone and a live show at Stubb’s had the Austin
Chronicle calling her “…a major new talent”.

The Strange Boys - Be Brave (2010) by WE ARE THE SLEEPYHEADS : Contact Info today
(Indie,Rock,Garage,Lo-Fi,Psychedelic)
Austin, TX’s The Strange Boys evoke a wild-eyed, porcelain-skinned innocence that is capable of summoning the wayward spirit of Brian Jones. The mystery of the South couples with the mastery of rhythm to create a sound completely timeless and familiar, yet absolutely raw and avant-garde. Greg Enlow’s syncopated, organ-driven grooves hark back to The Seeds’ “Pushing Too Hard” while guitarist Ryan Sambol’s voice wavers beyond comparison. Older brother Philip Sambol keeps the pulse with the aptly named Matt Hammer, who unmercifully pounds an old Ludwig set.
The Strange Boys began as a duo (Hammer and the younger Sambol)
in 2003. The other two joined in 2005 and the band has been on
tour non-stop ever since. Since 2003 the Boys have recorded a
wealth of material which was passed around at shows and to
friends, but never officially released. In 2007, Dusty Medical
Records put out the Nothing EP, and in 2008, In The Red released
the ìWoe Is You and Meî single. Now, finally, the band’s proper
debut album is seeing the light of day. It’s easy to imagine The
Strange Boys’ And Girls Club, a sixteen-track beast, blasting out
of any stereo system between The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th
Floor Elevators and Wire’s Pink Flag.
The Strange Boys were the backing band for Mighty Hannibal (the
’50s R&B recording artist); were main support for Roky
Erickson and the Explosives at the Chaos in Tejas festival; have
played South by Southwest the last four years, the Fuck Yeah Fest
the last three years, Austin City Limits, Festival in Music Fest
Northwest, and Bamalama (all in 2008); shared bills with Daniel
Johnston, Black Lips, Reigning Sound, King Khan and BBQ, Jay
Reatard, Mika Miko, No Age, and BRMC; have toured with The Black
Angels, Fucked Up, The Carrots, and Crystal Antlers; and will
tour with Darker My Love and Mika Miko in ‘09.î

Music of dreDDup is a mixture of dark noisy sounds with rough
industrial rhythm followed by metallic vocals. They are mostly
influenced by post industrial music scene of the late 80's and
the mid 90's. After experimenting with weird noises and rough
drum beats they embraced commercial segments in their sound,
making it more popular for some wider range of listeners. Today,
they sound like a crossover of every genre they get in touch
with.
dreDDup was formed 4th of June 1997 in the small city of Novi Sad
Located in Serbia (Europe). In the beginning the whole band were
two punk guys who began to experiment with electronic music. They
DIY produced their first demo 'BDTP' in late 1997. and their
first demo album 'Abnormal Waltz' in late 1998. During the late
1990s dreDDup were part of what was known as the post- industrial
/ noise influenced band but their sound changed rapidly - finally
gathering it all under the label of industrial / crossover. Many
DIY cassette EP's and demo soundscapes were recorded in that
period but were never officially released. Live performances took
place and members changed.
Exploring the dark sides of the human mind and the distorted
production of truthful industrial crossover music, they've
released their first official album 6 years later. 'Mr Bordnead's
Feast' (2004) saw the addition of violins, keyboards, female back
vocals and live instruments. It sounded more mainstream and
commercial but band did it with a purpose to get the attention
from the Serbian media. More innovative than old demos , yet
retaining all the key elements of the early era, 'Mr Borndead's
Feast' was slightly darker, although a long way off the intense
darkness of the first two demos. This album talked about the past
and the bloody feast of the close minded. 2004's showed a band
continuing to expand and redefine their sound and purpose. A
substantial increase in live performances - once an unheard of
rarity - has lead to much greater recognition by a new generation
of fans.
In 2005, Holland music label MoocSound Records , released their
'Mr Borndead's Feast' album in digipack format. Band than
produced several videoclips and entirely dislocated their sound
from the other surrounding bands. dreDDup's next release came in
august 16th. 2007, when they released their second album -
'Future Porn Machine'. Following the footsteps of 'Mr.Borndeads
Feast' this new album sounded more darker and more industrial
rock than the previous one leaving the production rough. The main
concept of this album was the pornographic future, where art =
pornography = art where machines are replaced by humans.
"Insurrection Records" from Belgrade recognized this band's music
and agreed to release this album. dreDDup than finally abandoned
that mainstream sound and went back to the basics of their music
leaving the old work behind. After this move, they finally got
the recognition by the wider audience. It continued by making the
official remixes for Nine Inch Nails and re-relase of their old
demo album 'Abnormal Waltz' on CD for 9 foreign labels.
In 2008, the band was included in much of the foreign music
compilations. Third album 'El Conquistadors' was than finished in
late 2008. This album was meant to be totally different from
their previous ones. The new dreDDup sound followed more post-
industrial sound and less melodies, including some very dark
vocals and music that brought new dark energy in their live
performances. It's concept was to bring the old sound from the
80's back to life. All 15 tracks are for the "chosen ones" only
and band decided to release a bonus DVD with it. DVD contains
"Industrial Renaissance" 40 min documentary about the band and 50
min live video of the dreDDup show "Live in 219". This album was
the last one in time trilogy and is talking about the present
tense and human inner boundaries. Album was officially released
for Insurrection Records on March the 6th 2009.
Although primarily a musical group, dreDDup has sometimes worked
in other media. In their early years, they've produced several
works of video art., film soundtracks and theatre music.
Collaboration with many underground acts and artists also took
place in their career.
They are currently on tour and working on their new fourth coming
album which is about to be released in the beginning of 2011.
This will also be the last dreDDup album.
The Flaming Lips - The Soft Bulletin (1999) [FLAC] by holyfuckingshit40000 today
"It seems to me that depression sells. There's a strange comfort in sadness. It's like, there's no point to life, so why should I have to do anything? Why live my life? It would follow that the music industry would latch onto this. Bands and artists such as Linkin Park, Evanescence, Elliott Smith, etc. make music designed for the depressed. It's become pervasive. If you listen to the radio for five minutes, you'll be struck by the amount of negative energy that comes from it.
As a result of the success of hopelessness, it's a rare thing that you find a truly happy record. As rare as they are, they're certainly a breath of fresh air when you come across them. The Soft Bulletin is one of these records. It's a celebration of love, hope, and innocence, in an increasingly cynical world. And while it doesn't deny that the world is a dark place, it tries desperately to keeps hope alive.
It starts off strong, and keeps the pace throughout. The first two tracks, Race for the Prize and A Spoonful Weighs a Ton, are a story about, as far as I can tell, two scientists trying to find a cure for a pandemic. The pressure is unbelievable, and there is a chance that they could die from this pandemic, they struggle onward, finally discovering the cure that will save mankind. While they are ecstatic, they never forget the cost of the discovery.
After that, while it's a concept album, it doesn't really tell a story. It becomes an angel sitting on your shoulder, reassuring you that every time things start to get heavy, it's not the end. For example, The Gash is about getting up and carrying on after a bad event. Waitin' for a Superman tells us that though the world is dark and bleak, God or Superman hasn't forgotten. He's just gathering enough strength to save us. Every other track is just as hopeful.
Every track on here is a great song, though two tracks, The Observer and Sleeping on the Roof, are instrumental, and may not stand as well on their own. This is just an all around fantastic album. It's like a box of kittens, or a big, fluffy blanket, in that when you are listening, it's practically impossible to feel down. I'm a negative, cynical, depressed shell of a man, who spends his waking hours wallowing in hate and self-pity, and I can't feel bad when listening to this album. It's like a cheap alternative to therapy. It's like a fix when your on happiness withdrawal. It's like someone captured good feelings, hope, love, and kindness, and managed to record them on a CD. Utterly brilliant."
tl;dr - Cool psych pop. Pitchfork eat dicks.
