the hun hangar ensemble / all hour cymbals
i miss aaron's updates. i feel out of the electro loop.
....
i think i'm late with all the hpye on this on, but i can't get enough of
Yeasayer. it's like when i found out about
Midlake's
Trials and Van Occupanther (which i bought for my mother for christmas, and she really liked it!). so i guess i think of Yeasayer as a Midlake type band (with it's sing-a-long vibe), but with
Animal Collective's spacey weirdness to it. they seem like the kind of band anyone could listen to and find a part of it they like. i guess that's why
All Hour Cymbals' popularity is growing day by day, with many anticipating their north american tour.
2080 - yeasayerwait for the wintertime - yeasayerno need to worry - yeasayerA Hawk And A Hacksaw is mostly just Jeremy Barnes (who was the drummer for
Neutral Milk Hotel) along with violinist Heather Trost. i've only listened to the newest album,
The Hun Hangar Ensemble, but i'm in love. if you're looking for a new gypsy/balkan/folk infusion (along the lines of
Devotchka or
Beirut), then this is it. interestingly enough, AHAAH have toured with Beirut, even! now, this guy is apparently amazing to see live. he plays everything himself, even while drumming! look at these
live photos.
