Neil Young :: Dead Man (OST)

Are you William Blake? Yes, I am. Do you know my poetry? - Dead Man (1995)

The crux of this post is the unreleased acoustic/electric theme from Jim Jarmusch's film Dead Man, which, oddly, did not appear on the official soundtrack to the film . . .

Of Montreal :: Harvest Moon (Neil Young Cover)

Thanks to our friends at Polyvinyl for hooking us up with this track off the upcoming digital only Of Montreal EP. If you have seen the band over the past year, you very well may have heard their take on the Neil Young staple. This, as well as other covers, can be found on the acoustic Sony Connect Set.

The Everybodyfields :: Nothing Is Okay

Last month, after countless recommendations from both friends and acquaintances, I finally sat down with a copy of The Everybodyfields latest LP Nothing Is Okay. I'm happy to report that its modern take on depression-era country and folk lived up to the hype. Hailing from Johnson City, TN, The Everybodyfields . . .

Bob Pollard :: To Release New Record(s) Oct 9th

As You An't No Picasso mentioned, Robert Pollard is set to release, not one, but two albums later this year, Coast To Coast Carpet Of Love, and Standard Gargoyle Decisions. Prolific, yes, but really, as the Pollard faithful know, it would be more out of character had he only decided to release one (more) album album in '07. Stream them HERE.

Trojan Records 40th Anniversary :: In Fine Style

Over the past month, Aquarium Drunkard has teamed up with the classic reggae/dub label, Trojan Records, to help commemorate the their 40th anniversary. As any genre aficionado will tell you, when it comes to this shit, Trojan is where it’s at.

What this means for A.D. readers - who are reggae/dub enthusiasts - is the opportunity to get your paws on some excellent, free, Jamaican classics. We have been giving away one classic title, every two weeks, from . . .

Upon their release, Iron & Wine's debut, The Creek Drank The Cradle, and its subsequent EP, The Sea & The Rhythm, at first listen, felt like home. Sam Beam's . . .

Emmylou Harris :: Reflecting – 2007 Q+A

Yes, browsing an issue of Fader magazine can often seem like one big hipster lifestyle advertisement, but, and this is a big but, they do often have some good content if you are willing to dig. This past issue (with Devendra Banhart on the cover) has a Q+A with one of my all-time favorite . . .

Off The Record :: Rosie Thomas (Seattle, WA)

Off The Record is a recurring, feature here on the Drunkard, that marries two of my greatest interests; music and travel. Having a locals perspective when visiting a new locale is the difference between experiencing it through the lens of a tourist and of that of a native.

Off The Record gathers some of my favorite artists, asks them to reflect on their city of residence, and choose a handful of places they could not live without, be them bookstores, bars, restaurants or vistas.

This week we catch up with singer-songwriter

Fugazi :: Instrument

I recently re-watched (and re-listened to) the Fugazi documentary Instrument from 1999. Unlike the majority of Discord artists, Fugazi remain one band whose music, despite having been a fan for close to 17 years, never seems to lose its edge, nor my interest. I think this "staying power," if you will, has to do primarily with the fact that no one else does what they do.

Sure, you can name a laundry list of artists who have purloined elements of the band's . . .

One more Wilco related post this week. The below track is an MP3 dvd rip of Jeff Tweedy's cover of Bill Fay's "Be Not So Fearful" -- cribbed straight from the 2004 documentary I Am Trying To Break Your Heart. Fay's lyrics, paired with the point in the . . .
