an El Guincho - Alegranza (XL) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-11-13 Released earlier this year in Europe, Alegranza is the debut from El Guincho (Spaniard Pablo Diaz-Reixa). The nine song, forty-minute release mixes afro-beat, calypso, world music, tropicalia, and freak folk into a delirious blast of music that sounds something like Manu Chao crossed up with Animal Collective. It's very loop-based, with repetitive song-structures that rely on clever transitions and some great vocals. Full Article
an Susanna - Flower Of Evil (Rune Grammofon) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-11-20 Susanna Wallumrød is a hell of a singer. Over the course of several albums with Morten Qvenild (as Susanna and the Magic Orchestra) and the previous solo release Sonata Mix Dwarf Cosmos, she's done up both original songs and covers with sparse accompaniment, letting her strong vocals lead the way. Flower Of Evil is the second "solo" release from Wallumrød and it again features the usual batch of Rune Grammofon players, including Helge Sten (Deathprod, Supersilent) and Pal Hausken (In The Country). Bonnie "Prince" Billy also appears on a couple songs as well. Full Article
an Jonas Reinhardt - Jonas Reinhardt (Kranky) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-11-20 Released during an incredibly busy fall slate of offerings from the Kranky label, this self-titled album from Jonas Reinhardt is one that hopefully won't fall through the cracks. Working with a home studio of analogue synthesizers and vintage drum machines, he creates swooping instrumental music that calls to mind the glory days of the 70s kraut output, with enough motorik rhythmic pulsations to keep it moving forward.

an The Matthew Herbert Big Band - There's me And There's You (K7) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-11-20 Matthew Herbert albums have become increasingly more massive and detailed over the course of the past decade. His most recent work has not only involved huge orchestral arrangements, but incredibly detailed sound sampling as well. There's Me And There's You is no different, with epic listings of different source samples that help reinforce the political and social issues that Herbert has been tackling for some time now. This newest effort also finds him collaborating for the first time with London-based singer Eska Mtungwazi, who seems to have a bit more jazz chops than his long-time partner Dani Siciliano, but is also a bit more over-the-top.

an The Sea And Cake - Car Alarm (Thrill Jockey) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-12-04 Despite Car Alarm being the eighth album from Sea And Cake, and despite my love of many bands who share members and locale, I have never reviewed an album of theirs on this site. I guess this is as good of any place to start, as it's one of their most solid releases in some time (although, to be fair the group has never really stumbled in a major way). Although the group has been together for fifteen years now, albums have usually arrived at a more drawn-out pace, but for this twelve-song, forty-minute release they went straight into the studio right on the heels of a long tour in order to try to capture the energy and spontaneity properly.

an Johann Johannsson - Fordlandia (4AD) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-12-04 Based on the strength of my first listen to the album-titled opening track from Jóhann Jóhannsson's new Fordlandia, I was ready to launch it far up my often-morphing "best of 2008" list. When the woodwind curls of "Melodia (I)" followed, I was wooed even further. Following the more epic IBM 1401 - A User's Manual and Virðulegu Forsetar, Fordlandia is much more straightforward and concise, with what is essentially three separate suites of music that are largely broken down into more digestible pieces.

an Gang Gang Dance - Saint Dymphna (The Social Registry) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-12-11 The first time I listened to this new album from Gang Gang Dance, I sort of wrote it off as the "transition" release, where the group tried a lot of new things and succeeded at a few of them while not quite landing their punches in other directions. Then, I noticed that I kept playing it over and over again, and those songs that I originally thought weren't as strong ended up as some of my favorites. Although it has some things in common with their last full-length God's Money, it's a much more ambitious and exciting batch of songs, melting together everything from grime to ragged experimental jams and shimmering electronic pop.

an Deerhunter - Microcastle / Weird Era Continued (Kranky) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-12-11 If you've ever read the blog of Deerhunter, you probably realize that wild mood swings and prolificness are just par for the course. Brandon Cox has written epic rants and then apologize (or not), laying out feelings and thoughts in words that sometimes just seem like a grab for attention. At the same time that he does this, he posts new original songs (often under his solo guise Atlas Sound, which also released an album on Kranky earlier this year), videos, and mixes. Band member Lockett Pundt also releases songs there under the name Lotus Plaza, and he'll also release an album on Kranky next year. Needless to say, the group stays busy. Full Article
an Brethren Of The Free Spirit - The Wolf Shall Also Dwell with the Lamb (Important) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-12-11 As a solo artist, James Blackshaw is prolific enough, so imagine my surprise when I found out that he's also put out not one, but two collaborative albums with lutenist/ composer Jozef van Wissem under the name Brethren Of The Free Spirit. Earlier this year, the duo released All Things Are From Him, Through Him, and In Him in limited versions on the AudioMer label, and now they're already back with another selection of long tracks on The Wolf Shall Also Dwell with the Lamb on Important Records.

an Silent Land Time Machine - & Hope Still (Time-Lag / Indian Queen) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-12-18 Co-released on Time Lag and Indian Queen Records, & Hope Still is the debut album from one Silent Land Time Machine, a one-man recording project of a fellow from Texas who has managed to teach himself how to play a lot of different instruments and build up a beguiling little album with some crafty layering and subtle shifts in sound that call to mind a ton of different artists but doesn't really sound like any one of them in particular.

an Girl Talk - Feed The Animals (Illegal Art) By www.almostcool.org Published On :: 2008-12-25 I'm sure there's a huge cultural essay just waiting to be written (or perhaps someone has already tackled it and I haven't read it) on how the indie rock kids absolutely go ape shit for the music of Girl Talk, but for the most part shy away from hip hop and rap music in general by itself. Perhaps it's because Greg Gillis simply recontextualizes the music itself by slamming it up alongside so many other styles that it simply becomes impossible to place into any sort of genre. One could call it a mash-up, but Gillis goes far beyond just about anyone else I've heard doing this sort of thing, to the point where a mind-boggling amount of song samples (averaging about 10 or more per minute of song) makes the head spin. For reference, a Wikipedia article thoroughly lists everything. Full Article
