Figured I'd start the hype machine going on next week's releases now. Menomena's Brent Knopf has a side project called Ramona Falls. The debut album under the moniker comes out next week, so naturally, he'd like everybody to hear a song from it, so they can get more anxious about its impending release. However, the only way to hear new track, "I Say Fever" at the moment is through Stereogum's Gumdrop feature. It takes less than a minute to sign up, and you get a bunch of emails on promotions and free stuff, so it's worth it. Anyway, about the track-- it sounds a bit like Islands, sort of panic-stricken and moody, with some interesting instrumentation. Overall, I'd recommend giving it a listen. For those interested, Ramona Falls' Inuit is out August 18th via Barsuk.
Animal Noises is a blog about music, both old and new, and how it stands up in the current music scene. The staff-- John, the editor, with contributions from Matt-- uses their various music backgrounds to intelligently discuss artists and albums, focusing on the good, while not avoiding the bad. We focus on sub-genres of rock, electronic music and hip hop, but don't be surprised to see the occasional wildcard too.
