Free Download: Fog

Fog fans, Daytrotter just posted a four song live session. Link. All the tracks are from Ditherer.

Daytrotter continues to be the greatest source of free, new music. At least someone out there understands the way the music wind blows.

Note: the following are thoughts four months later...

The Veils - Nux Vomica
One of may favorite downloads of the year. there is screaming without being un-listenable, lots of strings without being sappy. strong lyrics, great voice, great variety. christmas came early. go aucklanders!

The Avett Brothers - Emotionalism
I've gone back and forth on this. "love writes a letter to hate" is pretty worthless, and the album is much more stripped down than i was expecting. but i had most of the record memorized by the third listen, which makes it a comfortable record to put on when looking for something familiar. this is a 33-33-33 record. 33% really good, 33% tolerable and 33% skipable.

Gore Gore Girls
it's free. and i still haven't listened to it.

Yeasayer - 2080/Sunrise
two song EP, both of which are identical to All Hour Cymbals, which is a great record. saw them in concert, but was too drunk to remember most of it. hey, it was valentines day alright!

Andrew Bird - Song of America
a traditional song from a new comp, produced by none other than janet reno. yes that janet reno, of boxing fame.

Dosh - The Lost Take
MPLS drummer for Andrew Bird/ multi-instrumentalist. feat members of Fog, Happy Apple and Mr. Bird. Martin Dosh's most comprehensive and accessible album to date.
