Clearing Out Our Email

We get a lot of email over here. So much that we often read it and then before we can take a second look, it gets shoved to the back of the pile forgotten.

Case in point, an email about the band The You- a group from Pittsburgh whose debut album was produced by Brian Deck (Modest Mouse and Iron & Wine). I actually really liked the song we were sent but just never got around to posting it. Well today is my day to get around to things. You can download 'I'm going to kill myself' here.

Another singer to come across our inbox is Naama Hillman. She's a singer/songwriter with a new acoustic ep as a follow-up to her first cd, Living Room. There are no real stand-out tracks on the ep (which you can download for free on her site) but she does do a nice cover of 'Ring of Fire.' It's no Johnny Cash version, but it's nice all the same. Download it here.

Daytrotter just sat down for a session with Two Gallants. They perform 4 unreleased songs and they are all available for download, so that is worth checking out. Last week they had the French Kicks.

The New York Dolls just visited The Henry Rollins show on IFC and performed 'Lookin for a kiss'

The Noisettes have a new song called 'Scratch your name.' You can download it here, definitely worth it- this group is awesome.

And I was in yesterday's Newsday reviewing Rockstar Supernova. Check it out. I was in last week's paper talking about Stride gum, exciting I know, as well. Next up, I'll be reviewing Thom Yorke's new album and Union Hall in Park Slope.
