Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks have set a March 4 date for their next Matador album, titled "Real Emotional Trash."

Jarlaxle 56 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 er, I know who he is. I might even take the trouble of seeing this tour...if they come to anywhere around here. I'm sure the tickets would be cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahfin Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 People on this board know who Malk is? You do. I'm sure there are others. I'm not NOT going to post about a certain artist just because I think no one else has heard of them. Afterall, you don't end up having the No. 1 Indie album in the land in Blender without people not knowing who you are. Not to mention, liking independent artists (however you choose to define that) isn't some sign of "hipster cool" to me, I simply like music and enjoy spreading the word. Music is meant to be spread and shared, not kept to oneself in some lame attempt to be percieved as being on the "cutting edge". Fuck that.

Muse Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Pavement are wasted on me... But I love their appearance on Space Ghost: Coast To Coast!! 'the beatles' "Moltar! Get me the Beatles to replace Zorak!" "Ay-O-K Chief... em... Space Ghost... I'm not going to be able to get the Beatles." "Just get anybody. The audience won't know - they're all stupid."

Jahfin Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 Well I just thought it was a little odd for a Jahf posted link thread. I've never been real huge on Pavement. Then again, I haven't heard a lot of their stuff but anyone that salutes R.E.M. in one of their tunes is alright with me (even if it's Hootie). It's not like I keep my head buried in the sand when it comes to new music, you didn't think I'd heard of Fiery Furnaces either. In any event, I figured you'd be interested in the news and perhaps a few other Pavement fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
