My favorite upstate New York folk rocker A.A. Bondy has announced the follow-up to 2007’s breathtaking album “American Hearts”, entitled “When The Devil’s Loose”, which will see the light of day on September 1st.
“Recorded primarily in Water Valley, MS in April and May, When The Devil’s Loose expands upon the stripped-down and haunting sound of his debut album, American Hearts. A full band now accompanies him on most tracks, lending a full, roomy sound to 10 songs of bluesy Americana carried along by Bondy’s lived-in voice.”
This is very exciting news, however I won’t be able to make his Cafe du Nord show next Thursday as I will be on a plane to New York. But you should!

I forgot how much I loved this guy. Dark atmospheric electronic music will always have a special place in my heart.
Odd Nosdam – Fat Hooks
Taking indie rock by storm yet again; +/- are back with their fun and dreamy album, Xs on Your Eyes.
+/- – Snowblind
“It took me years for these words,” Bound Stems lead vocalist Bobby Gallivan hollers, “years to admit I was RIGHT!” Probably one of my favorite songs of the year.
Bound Stems – Happens to Us All Otherwise
With his lazy acoustic melodies and relaxing vocals, Palenville, NY’s A.A. Bondy paints the upstate NY picture so well. Personally growing up in that region, I hear something familiar. It sounds like home.

Wilderness is music for those of you who want a soundtrack to the calm of a Sunday evening. They create building psychedelic landscapes and move you slowly without you knowing the journey they have taken you on. Pack lightly…
Wilderness – Strand The Test of Time
Indie pop never sounded so beautiful and loving. It didn’t take long for me to enjoy Deerhoof’s new album. If you listen you’ll understand why.
Deerhoof – Offend Maggie
Since Death From Above 1979 won’t be coming back anytime soon, we at least have ex-drummer/vocalist Sebastien Grainger to enjoy. More soulful and less insane than DFA79, it’s a nice addition to this lush year of new music.
