Fever Ray is crazy.

2010-02-26T11:12:00.012-05:00

So I recently discovered that Karen Dreijer Andersson, lead singer of the Knife, released a solo album under the name of Fever Ray in 2009. If anyone could give Lady Gaga a run for her money, its Karen.

This is from January 27th at the Swedish P3 Guld awards where she accepted an award for best dance artist.

I'm not sure if it's supposed to make a statement as Lady Gaga claims her costumes do, or maybe she's just making fun of her. I hope its the latter and that Lady Gaga and her begin a feud. They can insult each other through song and video like Nelly Furtado and Fergie did. Or maybe they can just breakdance at each other.

Such is my dream.

Vivian Girls/Real Estate at UConn & Some CMJ

2009-11-24T19:03:00.013-05:00

I have a couple of pictures from Vivian Girls/Real Estate show that was held at UConn and hosted by WHUS on October 30th. WHUS is the greatest... and both bands were amazing. Can't say much about the other two bands that were playing because they were super loud. I just wasn't into it.
Unfortunately, all my pictures looked the same (click to see larger).

I love the Vivian Girls. This was the second time I've seen them live-- first time was over a year ago. They opened for Sonic Youth in August of 2008 [so did Times New Viking!] & I had no idea who they were, but I fell in love (that may be weird to write...) They are awesome and everyone should listen to them. Megs and I brought a couple of friends to the show who had never heard them and both of them really enjoyed the show, which was great! Hmm what else. I bought a t-shirt from Kickball Katy!

Real Estate was very very good as well. Gahhh. Hope everyone who went enjoyed themselves. It was lots o' fun.

I also went to CMJ about a month ago now, damn. There's lots to write about that, but I really don't feel like it. Here's a picture of the hottie from Turbo Fruits (who put on a really fun show!) at Union Pool in NYC.

This photo does him no justice. He's really nice, too. Tiff (WHUS DJ, on Sundays at 10PM) and I talked to him and I bought Echo Kid on vinyl. Sigh. More pictures of CMJ shows later, since all I did was see bands play all night and every night. OH we saw Metric last week so pictures/video (maybe?!) to come!!

11 19 2009

2009-11-20T17:39:00.006-05:00

We had a trainee with us in the studio and he played a bunch of music for the last two-thirds of our show. Here's what we played:

Watching the Planets - The Flaming Lips - Embryonic
About a Girl - Nirvana - Bleach Reissue

Martin Luther King Day - Times New Viking - Born Again Revisited
Born Again Revisited - Times New Viking - Born Again Revisited
Hermann Loves Pauline - Super Furry Animals - Radiator
New Fang - Them Crooked Vultures - S/T
Mama's Mad Cos I Fried My Brain - Turbo Fruits - Echo Kid
Brand New Love - Sebadoh - Smash Your Head on the Punk Rock

Then he took over! It's crazy that Meg and I actually taught someone how to use the studio...

We'll be back on air in two weeks. Have a great Thanksgiving!

Why? Au in Concert

2009-10-01T10:59:00.015-04:00

I saw Au and Why? in concert last night at Daniel St. in Milford. Dark Dark Dark was also playing with them...but somehow I missed that. Anyway! Au was intersting, they were more of an experimental indie band but the drummer was incredible. There were a few really nice songs in the set but honestly it was hard to tell when one song ended and the other started. But if experimental folky indie is your thing, I would suggest checking them out. I didn't get many good pictures of them although I tried since the drummer was super cute.

Why? made me happy in so many ways. First off, their set included my top favorites being "Vowels pt 2", "January twenty something" and "This blackest purse". From what I hear their newest album "Eskimo Snow" has the least amount of hip-hop influence than any of their albums. To make up for this they played a song called "21st Century Pop Song" from Hymie's Basement, Yoni's hip-hop indie side project. You can find a YouTube clip of it below since I thought it was amazing. It was a great show although I'm bummed I missed Dark Dark Dark. Anyway pictures and clips can be found below!

Interviews

2009-09-20T12:57:00.015-04:00

To Spice things up, we interviewed each other. Megs interviewing Steph

1. WHO WAS YOUR FIRST TV CRUSH?

Probably David Duchovny in X-Files? I didn't watch a lot of TV with attractive guys when I was young. Han Solo was my first movie crush, if that explains anything about me

2. IF YOU COULD MAKE A "GLASTONBURY,CT FESTIVAL" OF 10 BANDS WHAT WOULD THE LINEUP BE?
Talking Heads, Wu-Tang Clan, Missy Elliott, Cat Power, Sonic Youth, Descendents, Wipers, Husker Du, Pixies, New Order.

3. WHAT WOULD YOU GET A TATTOO OF? AND WHERE?
I want an ampersand or an infinity symbol, or something simple like that, on the right side of my back.

4. IF YOU WERE STRANDED ON A DESERT ISLAND WITH ONLY ONE THING TO EAT,
WHAT WOULD YOU WANT AN ENDLESS SUPPLY OF AND WHY?

Zesty chicken bowls because they are amazing. Or maybe peanut butter and jelly sandwiches because I love them.

5. WHAT WAS YOUR FAVORITE THING TO DO AS A KID?

I loved to explore forests and build forts when I lived in Vermont. And I was at my friend's farm a lot. I am nature girl after all.

6. WHAT SONG TITLE DESCRIBE YOU BEST?
"Silly Girl" by the Descendents and "Step Yo Game Up" by Snoop Dogg et al.

7. IF YOU WERE A FRUIT WHAT WOULD YOU BE?

Pineapple.

8. WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU WANT TO DO BEFORE YOU DIE?
Travel the world and take pictures of everything. Learn bass and be in a band (I'm getting too old though!!). I also want to see the Talking Heads someday..

9. WHAT DOES "HOT CAUGHT" MEAN TO YOU?

Maybe... you get caught doing something and uhh it just happened so it's "hot"... you know what? I have no idea. But that song is catchy so whateves.

(Google: "Hot Caught")

10. GARY SHANDLING OR TOM ARNOLD?

Ewwwwwwww. Tom Arnold.
