The Bouncing Souls - Gasoline
By m4k3 | January 6, 2009
The last time I laid eyes on the Bouncing Souls was about 10 years ago when I saw them at DV8 (R.I.P.) in Seattle. It’s pretty strange to see them all aged and jerry-curled so many years later. They were always on the softer, poppier side of the punk rawk, which the pulled off so well.
Bouncing Souls. no one can beat us- we drink beer and wear Adidas.

Who needs to buy cd’s? I’ll just grab my Sony tape recorder and push it next to my computer speakers. Now you can listen to the entirety of Andrew Bird’s new album, Noble Beast, thanks to the good folks at NPR. Hell, you can now even stream the entire bonus disc, Useless Creatures, as well. Who needs cd’s? To heck with ‘em!

Blind Pilot - Go On, Say It
By m4k3 | January 6, 2009
I had the pleasure of seeing Blind Pilot at the latest taping of LIVE! wire! and was highly impressed by their musical prowess. I am not looking forward to the 17th, when I’ll have to choose between seeing both Loch Lamond and Blind Pilot at the Aladdin Theater or The Moondoggies at the White Eagle.
At the Live!Wire! taping, the band discussed the venue for the creation and recording of their album, 3 Rounds and a Sound, which was an abandoned building perched on the banks of the Columbia River near Astoria. I can only assume that this video was filmed at the SAME location. *GASP* i love epiphanies!

M. Ward - Hold Time
By m4k3 | January 6, 2009
Appropriate for M. Ward’s lofty new little number, this video is set to some Portland Aerial Tram footy. Pitchfork called it “vintage”, but the B&W isn’t going to fool me that easily! Hah! Hold Time, is the title track off his new album set to be released sometime in Feb. I believe he’s playing a show in Portland shortly after its’ release, so keep your eyes peeled.

Mike Realm ft Del Tha Funkee Homosapien - Everytime
By m4k3 | January 2, 2009
By far the best video I’ve seen this year. At first it’s got you thinking “uhh…sweet…some backwards playing film and color shift tricks???”, but then she comes through with the cohesive content.
