Music of the Sphere
Found in the Big Round. Thanks, hosters. (Since being gently chided recently for not putting a band someone liked nearer the toppermost of a popperpost, I live in terror of letting you down. I have set the Powerpopulist staff working on a technique to post all songs first. Now they're chiding me, and none too gently either. This gig's harder than I'd ever dreamed.)

All This And A Title, Too
We found music. Thank you so much, dear visitor, for not insisting I yak (meaning below the box). Suffice it to say, we "dig" what we post. You might, too, even if for entirely different reasons. You want info, click green. You want music, click song titles. You want both. . .you really are complex. Happy weekend.
Violens - Violent Sensation Descends mp3 - Thanks to Tell All Your Friends, which I'm attempting to do. Both of them.

Sabot Starers
Labrador Retrievals
More Scandi Fun
Austinites
Murdocks - Playhouse Down mp3 - I've seen at least two different names for this song. I'll go with the one Vitriol's Ian Anderson graciously sent me today. The new EP, Roar, emits next week.
The Ugly Beats - The Light Comes On mp3 - I've been enjoying this group for awhile and am grateful to Paul Ford for alerting me to this song's availability at the SXSW artists site. See Paul's entertaining, insightful, and occasionally inaccurate (playful chide) six-word reviews of 763 SXSW artists here. I once thought I was obsessive/compulsive until I saw this Harper's associate editor's work. I'm a piker and a charlatan and many other kinds of semi-bootied.Double Dips (of Songs)

The Krinkles: "Still In Love" & "Burying The Hatchet"
The real reason they're retiring?
Just when I thought my Saturday night couldn't get any better, I find emailed directions to the first new song in eight years by Chicago's super The Krinkles. Wow, you've still got it, cids, and I sure wish you weren't so totally giving it up, if you cnow what i mean! I thrilled to their 3 - The Mordorlorff Collection back in May of last year, and find the wonderful "Gimme Gimme" is still available via Glorious Noise. (Go there and/or click down below.) The K's will be playing a final, reunion show on Saturday, April 19, at The Spot, located at 4437 N. Broadway in Chicago. (The show will be part of the 2008 International Pop Overthrow Festival.) After years of apparent bitterness, the four guys will reunite and, as stated at their MySpace site, "bury the hatchet." There are several riffs I could do on that one, but let's just enjoy the songs. Thanks, Matty, Dan, Jer, and Henry K, for all the great music, and all the bests to youse!
