For my friends dressed in black...

There are a handful or record labels I put all my faith into. Off hand, XL Recordings, MERGE, Domino to name a few. They just get it. Here's a track from the forthcoming Horrors album, titled "Primary Colours", to be released on XL Recordings on May 5th. You can preorder it here, from Insound.

And lastly, a highly promising Washington D.C. band called Pree. Highly recommended for fans of Modest Mouse, Cat Power, and Joanna Newsom. This band's got the goods. Check out "Speak Warmly" below -

MERGE Records is the label that payyys me.

MERGE Records seems to be the label that keeps on giving to it's fans. Conor Oberst & The Mystic Valley Band will be releasing "Outer South" on MERGE Records on May 5th. You can preorder from Insound here. Following the path of 2008's Conor Oberst solo release, The Mystic Valley Band was born from time on the road of that tour. This 16 song record is definitely a departure from your Bright Eyes records of yesteryear, but hey kids, give Conor a chance. Check out their MySpace page here.

Breaking up is hard to do.

I guess I don't believe in true love anymore? Here's a couple of tracks I'm dedicating to "Lilo & Snatch" that are on the quiet side, that I can't get enough of lately...'Odelay' is 13 years old now? Man.
