11.20.06Loudersoft Recommends: Aristocrunk Stylings of Lord T & Eloise November 25thIt's no secret that I don't hang out at Newby's (a long story that has to do with the clientele rather than with the always awesome "Too Tall" Todd or the people who work there). However, I might break my own rules for this show. You should, too.

11.17.06Loudersoft Does Cat Power by Proxy For MTVI received an invitation to an awesome show last week. Unfortunately, while the show was happening, I was standing in the middle of a casino in Reno coughing my head off to the dry, filthy indoor ventilations system while talking to college students about the label I work for. So, sadly, I couldn't make the Cat Power show at Young Avenue Deli on Wednesday night. Fortunately for you, Rory from My Best Friends Are Blues made it in my place and here's what he had to say about it. Sound like it was pretty good, sorry ...

11.08.06Loudersoft Asks Your Band to Hijack My Hipcast!Until the end of the year, I'm asking artists from various bands to hijack my Hipcast to do whatever they want to do -- call in a song, talk about a party, share a conference call with us, whatever you want to do. In this edition of the Hipcast Hijack, Tim from Airpushers took this thing for a test drive while he and Printz (the other half of Airpushers) prove their globetrotting skills as they cruise around the world on tour with the inimitable Fergie. Today's hipcast finds Tim down in Brazil. Short but sweet, you get ...

11.07.06Loudersoft Rants: Hey Bowery Ballroom, Mind Your F**king Manners.I'm from out of town, it's true. I used to live in New York City, and I'm used to some of the self-important attitudes that are naturally occurring in the city. It's a dog-eat-dog world, and particularly in a city of 8 million people. You have places to go, so do I. I understand entirely that often, you're actually more important than I am. You're an important person and people should respect you, right? Well, there's a difference between commanding respect and demanding respect. I wish that the door staff at Bowery Ballroom would recognize ...

11.06.06Loudersoft Approves of The Shins Live from CMJ on KEXP — You Shoulda Heard ThemI'm not just another Shins fan who heard them on the Garden State soundtrack and had them change my life. I respect people who had that happen. But I've been a Shins fan since before Sub Pop, and I'll be one no matter what happens from here forward. I found it interesting, then, that during their session for KEXP live at CMJ, James Mercer made it patently clear that they were looking to the future with plans for something bigger. Cheryl Waters made mention, during the session, of the impending end of their contract with Sub ...

11.06.06CMJ Day Three: Yep Roc’s American Princes Take No Prisoners, IODA Knows How To Party, Filter Gets French, Sub Pop ShinesIn this very column, I've stepped on the neck of Sub Pop records more than once. I've stepped on it, crushed the adam's apple, laughed openly, pointed my finger, and said a bunch of nasty things. Oh, wait, maybe not in this column, but trust me I have. I take it all back. Before I get there, let me start by talking about American Princes, already on my hit list as one of the most underrated of the up-and-coming rock bands I've seen. After their appearance at the Yep Roc afternoon showcase, doubters were set straight and new fans ...
