Folks have been patiently awaiting Owen Pallett's forthcoming third Final Fantasy full-length Heartland . A pair of EPs worked well as a stopgap, but it's bound to be especially satisfying to hear Pallett's increasingly ambitious songwriting spread over a dozen tracks aka "a fully orchestral ...

With the help of director Ben Barnes, Yoni Wolf and his band of bay-area WHY? guys have made a two-part high-def epic out of the video treatment for their latest LP Eskimo Snow 's opening two tracks. The transitional moment between the two songs is a moment of silence and a good vibe, and ...

Marcus Mumford let it slip in an interview with BBC6 that Mumford & Son's producer Markus Dravs has been working with Arcade Fire on the new album for six months now. Dravs engineered Neon Bible and says Butler's new songs are "better." Yay.

Reading Rainbow, aka the Philadelphia duo of Rob Garcia and Sarah Everto, have a new 7" out now on one Zoo Music, the San Diego label run by Dum Dum Girls' Dee Dee and Brandon from Crocodiles. (They put out an excellent Woven Bones single not so long ago.) The A-Side's the revved-up ...

I recently sat down with Sufjan Stevens at the Diner on 9th Avenue in Manhattan to talk about the release of The BQE CD/DVD for a piece in Art In America and Interview . We touched on the new project, but also got into a discussion of some of Stevens's recent interviews (see Shannon Stephens ...

Today is World AIDS Day, a day to raise awareness of HIV AIDS in the real world by instilling compassion and preventative habits in our everyday routines, and on the internet by using #red to turn your tweets red. Also there is (RED) , the organization that raises money for the Global Fund ...

Mew's vocalist + a-ha's guitarist + Coldplay's bassist = a sweet nine-minute MP3 from a supergroup that basically sounds like Mew sans the prog because Jonas Bjerre can only sound like Jonas Bjerre and it's not like Guy Berryman is Flea or anything. Email addy and its yours .

One Life Stand is Hot Chip's fourth album, joining a growing list of exciting releases on the 2010 docket. We've taken in " Take It In ," today the nerdy/sexy/sweet electropop lads offer a listen of their senior set's (excellently titled) title track. They open it up the way Basement Jaxx ...

Guy's got good taste, plus his descriptions detail personal connections with the artists: Will Oldham being a friend and a Kanye-video co-star, singing with MMJ in the rain at 'Roo, Rufus making him wish he were gay, etc. A good listen, and a good read at iTunes (via goldenfiddle ).

For those of you who don't find Postal Service or Owl City satisfyingly soulful enough, there's always this new collaboration between RJD2 and Ethiopian-born Virginia Beach-raised Malcolm Gladwell-approved vocalist/keyboardist Kenna. "Games You Can Win" appears on the mad man 's forthcoming ...

After this morning, we were an album cover closer to Spoon's Transference in all its anticipated glory. In posting it Brandon likened collecting the various promo bits to piecing together a puzzle, so it's somewhat fitting the album's first single has a title promising a riddle. We first heard ...

Doherty, whose mom is of Jewish descent, was dragged off stage in Munich this past weekend by on3-radio festival organizers after he tore into a rendition of the Nazi anthem "Deutschland, Deutschland Ueber Alles." Stay classy at The Daily Swarm

Alan Palomo gets bonus points for titling one of his "Cheerleader" remixes "Sega Genesis P-Orridge." It's lighter fare than the sunniest Throbbing Gristle, but the psychedelic acid-drenched Psychic TV thing's there. And why stop with just one "Cheerleader" mix? Palomo's more straightforward ...

The Vampire Weekender takes SPIN on a tour of his Brooklyn apartment, showing off posters, instruments, a very special Dirty Projectors EP, and a bowl of the best yogurt in NYC.

Julian's bringing his dice-throwing dance moves and the other dudes in the Strokes to the UK to headline the Isle Of Wright festival on 6/12. They're still friends after all. (via NME )

A month ago they did the Stones' Exile On Main St. cover-to-cover, but the Vermont jam-scene mascots' ever-expanding songbook got a contemporary shot in the arm via this weekend's "Golden Age." Here's the chorus and here's the jam . (Thanks for the tip, Vijay.)

While his old comrades act like aliens , ex-Beta Band vocalist Steve Mason's kept himself busy with the ongoing King Biscuit Time and then his Black Affair moniker. Taking a look at his website and MySpace, though, it turns out this airy new track from the forthcoming Richard X-produced Boys ...

Mrs. Gibbard told MTV the new She & Him's done and will be out in 2010: "It's official. It's done and being released in the spring. And we're going to go on tour." Also, they're definitely continuing the "Volume" title concept. More at TwentyFourBit .

On Friday we noted Ted Leo's much anticipated and ostensibly hardcore-influenced Matador debut was going to be titled The Brutalist Bricks . That came straight from the Jersey dude's mouth when he also let us know: [I]t's 13 songs, some of which we've been playing for a little while, and some ...
