Best of 2007 No. 5 -- Feist's "The Reminder"
Daytrotter's Best 15 Albums of 2007: No. 5 Feist's "The Reminder"
31 January 08
Commercial America, or commercial world, for what it is, created the happy accident that Leslie Feist and all of the straight as an arrow aristocrats, who now own a copy of this record, never saw coming. The Reminder serves as a very important lesson in how-the-fuck and DUH all at the same time…
Early Day Miners
An Associate Of The Season Just Missed
30 January 08
Passage of time, of the gently unstoppable gravitation toward the next season in line, will always be sticky. It will always represent the pulling apart of a q-tip of cotton candy or …

Rivers Cuomo: Odd Even In Aloneness
28 January 08
Rivers Cuomo hasn’t forgotten what you said. He hasn’t forgiven you, either. He knows you think he didn’t hear you, when you whispered it to the girl he liked back in eighth grade…
Illinois (bonus Bon Iver review)
Vault: Illinois
28 January 08
Anyone who knows the Midwestern plains knows their highways. They run in impossibly long, straight lines across the landscape with all the efficiency of a razor blade, efficient both in a razor blade’s potential for uncompromising ruthlessness and for the subtle, artful service it can render at the hands of one who has the skill to wield it…
Grand Ole Party
The Devil's Daughter Prefers The Sleight Of Hand
28 January 08
Impulse compels me oddly enough to tell you that Grand Ole Party lead singer Kristin Gundred is a rattle snake, though she is one in reversible skin. It’s been seen around …
Frank Smith
Finding The Highs And Lows Misleading
25 January 08
Death is rarely, if ever favorable. It is usually the uninvited dinner guest, the one clearing its throat awkwardly, checking its watch, bumping your legs with its feet under the table and …
Exclusive Video: Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin
Pershing
25 January 08
Nearby, please find for yourself an exclusive video production of the making of Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin’s forthcoming sophomore album, Pershing, out on Polyvinyl Records in early April. Filmed by Philip Dickey, you see kids being kids, toddlers given all the credit for the new record’s worth and group spokesperson saying, “We knew what we were doing. We knew EXACTLY what we were doing,” just before you swear you just caught a glimpse of …

Best of 2007 -- Cass McCombs' (Dropping the Writ)
Daytrotter's Best 15 Albums of 2007: No. 6 Cass McCombs' "Dropping The Writ"
24 January 08
It would be a good idea to just make a little note in the ledger of whatever you have available in front of you and just scribble, “2007 will be the last year that most people that I know don’t know who Cass McCombs is.”
Bear Hands lasso'd
Bear Hands Get Lasso'd
23 January 08
Here I am walking out of a spin cycle, typing my way out of the schizophrenic blizzard that Bear Hands lead singer Dylan Rau sets off with his knack for parceling out a year’s worth of kooky “this just occurred to me” thoughts in a short EP…
