We just got a sweet new 3 LP album of Iron and Wine’s “Around the Well“. What a great deal. 3 nice grade LPs with access to the MP3s as well. I think Alanna is part of the new “Send us all your most Bitchin Records” deal over at Subpop.

Bloc Party will release ‘Intimacy Remixed’ on the 11th of May, and to mark the occasion, the band have made parts for three of the album’s tracks available for you to remix if you want to. If you dig the band, and get into remixing original tracks, get on over to their site and get a download before their server crashes.

Woopsie daisy, Tom and I have been busy moving to Portland. We’re done now. I’m starting to use Blip.fm so you can always catch us there too. We’ll start posting to indiegeek now. I promise… maybe. Tom’s work is located above Jackpot records so I’m sure we’ll be getting a more regular booster shot of music now.

First Aid Kit is blowing my mind
December 17th, 2008 — Alt+Country, Indie, Video
On the bus home tonight I decided to search YouTube for some Fleet Foxes videos to watch. Instead I ran across this cover of a Fleet Foxes song by a Swedish sister group called First Aid Kit. I rushed home and bought their album and they are blowing my mind. The just made the best of 2008 list for me. You can buy an MP3 download of their album off their YouTube profile page. It’s less than $7.
