Under Byen’s Barbershop Cinematheque

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

In honor of the recent, hugely successful run of Hair on our campus, we’ve got some Danes who love to play with their hairs! Under Byen’s latest full-length, Alt Er Tabt, is out on Paper Bag Records. Below you’ll find a video that recalls the nightmarish visits to the barbershop from my early years. Their prog-y ethereal  sound is a far cry from Aquarius, but this is all about the hairrrrr.

Active Child Spooks and Spoils

Monday, May 31st, 2010

Yep that’s a kid wearing a Chewbacca mask. Totally adorable, right?! Well, this is the cover of Active Child’s new Curtis Lane EP (Merok), and its just as creepy and lovable  as this photograph implies. Active Child is Pat Grossi, a Philadelphia Boys Choir alumnus, who layers Antony-esque choral harmonies over luscious synths and drum samples. Grossi’s bold instrumentation reminds me of M83 with a darker, more New-Orderly underbelly.

Gayngs

Monday, May 24th, 2010

This is incredible. Gayngs comes out with an album called Unrelayted and the jams are unbelievably good. See below video for proof, and whatever you do get your hands on “The Walker.” It deserves some volume. Check out the video for “Cry” (a Godley & Creme cover) below. Yes, it is just like the original. But hopefully it should bring your attention both to the former and the later makers of the song. Explore.

Jonsi!

Sunday, April 11th, 2010
One of the newest icy spring-time treats that we have at KZSC is the first release from the guitarist and vocalist of (probably one of your favorites): Sigur Ros. His name is ___, but um, you can call him Jonsi (pronounced yawwwnnnnn-zeeeee). What started as a solo-acoustic project turned into an exploding cool album very similar to old Sigur Ros releases, in the best possible way. Also, Jonsi’s fashion style is pretty effing ridiculous in a really good way. Like, Metallic Falcons ridiculous (see above). If you’re intrigued by his raucous good looks or silky smooth feathers, you should check out the video below for “Go Do“.
