Arcade Fire – “Neighborhood #2 (Laika)”
Most publications have already printed their top albums of the noughties, but Drowned in Sound is slow…which is good, cos so am I. So maybe you guys can lend a hand. So I don’t forget that Avalanches’ album or records Pitchfork forgot for my list. So just start pounding away. Also, I’m kinda leaning towards The Wrens’ The Meadowlands as my #1, what’s yours?
The xx perform “Islands” on Later…with Jools Holland
Since I couldn’t figure out how to upload my best-of 2009 list to my Drowned in Sound friends, I figured you’d be dying to know my top 50 records of the year. Okay, maybe not dying. Let’s say, mildly curious.
Albums of 2009
Your turn!
Make Moon @ Troubadour
TSS first discovered Make Moon when they opened for Octopus Project at the Troubadour about three months back. Recently Tim Corbin “Dallas” and an acquaintance ventured to watch them perform at Silverlake’s Spaceland. Here is their collective accounts of the evening:
Upon first appearance, Spaceland’s stage seemed to be taken over by a time warped Viking/Pilgrim hybrid of a band. Were they going to raid and colonize Spaceland? Explore the North Western sea brink? Perhaps harvest some maize? Luckily for us they were there just here to play music, enter Make Moon a five man band lead by their very impressive singer/front man: Drew Morgan.

Old-school folk music enthusiast and frequent participant in TSS-related activities Josy Orsborne is putting on a show on for the ages. She has partnered with the Children’s Music Foundation to host a show featuring various bands playing Neil Young songs in order to raise money that provides musical instruments and Music Therapy to children with chronic and life altering illness. The show will feature the likes of Delta Spirit, Dead Meadow, The Parson Redheads, Leslie and the Badgers, Family of the Year, Justin Gordon, Restavrant, and Shakey Graves among others.
This night promises to be a throwback to better days when music had more depth and weight than much of what we experience today. Please join me in celebrating the music of a legend, supporting a dear friend, and contributing to the betterment of ill children through the majesty of music.
We are looking at buying tickets at the door but if you are looking for advanced purchase Click Here.
Okay, I bought a ticket to this show.
Everyone is welcome…I don’t have a good handle on how fast the tickets will go so if you’re interested you should probably buy them fast.
