We're awfully glad that Scott over at the excellent Pretty Goes With Pretty ushered us to Louisville's The Decibel Tolls to read an interview about Spiderland, his new book on Louisville's Slint. What a great blog! (It tolled sonorously for us. It was to die for, indeed, i.e., was quite a-pealing. It made big, beautiful bongs. Etc.) "Kenny Bloggins" posts an excellent mix of psych, shoegaze, garage, and other delectables and discusses them quite cleverly. We've barely begun to ring the changes of the great music "Kenny" (aka "Michael") has posted, but here are some of our favorites so far.
Bloody Knives - Hands Around My Neck - The Decibel Tolls
The Fantasies - Tick Tock - The Decibel Tolls
The Low Frequency In Stereo - Starstruck - The Decibel Tolls
Darker My Love - Two Ways Out - The Decibel Tolls
The Sunshine Factory - Head Becomes the Tomb - The Decibel Tolls
Totem Poll - Pointless/Love Gallery - The Decibel Tolls
Ojos Rojos - Step Outside - The Decibel Tolls
Vinyl Williams - Gold - The Decibel Tolls
Secret Colours - Jellybean - The Decibel Tolls
My Bloody Valentine - Bilinda Song - The Decibel Tolls
Devolver - Shadow - The Decibel Tolls
The Fauns - Lovestruck - The Decibel Tolls
