Friday Bears: BADBADNOTGOOD and Tyler, The Creator

Forgive me for not knowing too much (okay, anything) about BADBADNOTGOOD. There's not a ton of information out there, but from what I can tell from the group's Youtube channel, is that they're fairly high-caliber hip-hop instrumentalists. Most of the videos are worth a viewing, but the video for "Orange Juice" below featuring Tyler, The Creator is pretty fucking spectacular. Watch below.

New Tennis - My Better Self


Tennis' new song "My Better Self" has pretty much made its way around the internet already today, but in case you haven't gotten a chance to listen yourself, it's available to stream below.

Thursday Bears: Album Stream: Of Montreal - Paralytic Stalks


Of Montreal, which took me until now to find out they're actually from Athens, Georgia, are consistently chaotic, offbeat, flamboyant, and flat-out interesting, both live and in studio. That being said, Paralytic Stalks should be worth your time.

You can stream the entire album over at Pretty Much Amazing, and listen to the album's first single "Wintered Debts" below.

Wednesday Bears: New Le Sera video - Please Be My Third Eye

Watching the Le Sera video for "Please Be My Third Eye," you may recognize red-headed girl as Katy Goodman (Kickball Katy) of Vivian Girls fame. She released her self-titled debut last year, but it pretty much came off as more Vivian Girls songs, so this sounds like a good change of pace. Watch the video below and grab the song download here, via Gorilla vs. Bear.

New Dr. Dog - Lonesome


With the release of Be The Void early next month, Dr. Dog have released their first single from the album, "Lonesome." Listen to the track below, and grab the new album February 7, via Anti-Records.

Wilco on Conan

The days when Wilco is performing on late night TV still seem incredibly far away for the Chicago veterans. Last night, the band appeared on Conan to promote their new iTunes session (available now), performing two tracks from their latest release, The Whole Love. Watch them both below.



Tuesday Bears: Fiona Apple comes out of the shadow world


Fiona Apple is an American myth. She rarely does shows, is perpetually 24-years old, has only a few albums, but is still very popular, despite the relatively light work-load in her two-decade career. So when the Manhattan native announced her first album (for real this time) since 2005's Extraordinary Machine, it was meant to be noticed.

According to sources, we're at the least expecting a new album "soon" without any regard of when exactly, or what it could be. Stay tuned for that.
