Filed under: The Chum Bucket Pearl Jam are streaming their new album, 'Backspacer,' in full before it's released Sunday. [MySpace] Julian Casablancas finally unveils a tune from his forthcoming solo album. [Prefix] Fanfarlo stops by KCRW for an in-studio performance. [KCRW] La Roux's Elly Jackson defends Taylor Swift, but not really. [Angry Ape] The guys from U2 really, really like champagne. [Lainey Gossip] Grizzly Bear and the Killers are hopping on the 'Twilight' train. [Pitchfork]

So I missed this video while I was in my posting hiatus, but this band is simply too good to not share. Fanfarlo is currently on tour (finishing a US tour and then heading east toward the UK), and their Reservoir album is possibly my favorite disc of the year. This is a video for Fanfarlo s song The Walls Are Coming Down. I dig the feel that Forsyth Jane Pollard brought to this video. Enjoy and share with your friends! They need to be heard.

Every year brings a few surprisingly strong debuts by new artists. Last week we purchased Fanfarlo s Reservoir for $1 (the offer ends on July 4), not expecting what we heard. Fanfarlo - Harold T Wilkins, Or How To Wait For A Very Long Time Whenever you receive an email saying that Jónsi of Sigur Rós is floored by a new artist, you need to at least check them out. Fanfarlo made such a strong impression on Sigur Rós that the album cover is a photo of Sigurrós (Jónsi s sister) and her cousin Disa. Sigur Rós had this to say about this band from London: [Fanfarlo] made the record in Connecticut with a guy called Peter Katis and, as the more vigilant of you may have noticed,  Jónsi liked it so much that he has started work on his own solo record with the same dude.

just a live jam of the song by fanfarlo in a shed one afternoon

Started the day off at the Pitchfork party. Caught Girls (ok), and then it was onto Little Boots. Her set had a lot of energy, was a ton of fun, and if my schedule permits I d even try to see her again today. Think Annie meets Lykke Li. Blurry Little Boots It was then onto The Pains of Being Pure at Heart. This was their 7th show in 3 days during SXSW, but they played it as if they were fresh as daisies. Believe the hype on them. After that it was off to the music blogger hosted event, Hot Freaks. Caught some of Port O Brien and The Thermals until it was time for the epic set by The Hold Steady, the band in which I stole a lyric from to name this year s donewaiting.com SXSW coverage. Okay, now the thing I ve noticed at previous Hold Steady shows is there s usually 20 fans that are a little more excited than the rest of the crowd. Granted, everyone in the crowd is excited, but these are super fans. So when you re at SXSW, a festival that is drawing people from all over the world, when you see The Hold Steady you have a crowd made up of those 20 fans from everywhere. The energy was amazing. There was so much joy in that tent while the band played (close to 20 songs), it gave me chills. The Hold Steady photo stolen from chromewaves I went back to the Central Presbyterian Church in the evening and caught Fanfarlo. The band didn t catch my interest in the beginning of their set, but by the end I was warming up to them. I saw them sell a ton of CDs after their set, so they re definitely doing something right. Now it s time to talk about The Low Anthem. One of the greatest things about SXSW is seeing a band you know nothing about and falling in love with them. This year, The Low Anthem is that band for me. The band is made up of three people who were all amazing multi-instrumentalists, switching instruments constantly during their set. And man can they sing too. A lot of their songs have a noir-y fold sound to them, but there was at least 2 songs where they busted out some real soulful music, too. Check out their website to stream some of their music to hear what I m talking about. As soon as I get home I m ordering all their stuff. MP3: Charlie Darwin by The Low Anthem Closed down the evening watching the Eugene Mirman and John Wesley Harding Cabinet of Wonders show. This event featured Eugene and John performing with special guests in between. Alina Simone, Todd Barry and Sally Crewe were a few of them that played early on the set. At that point of the evening the music from the venues surrounding them sort of bled into what they were doing so it was a little difficult to follow, but if the tour comes through your area I would definitely check it out. NOTES - Yes, Metallica played. Chip Midnight was there and he took some video. - Reuters ran an article about the blogger panel I was on.
