  • The Decemberists's the Tain
    November 2, 2015 American Folk Rock Cattle Raid: The Decemberists’s The Tain Kendra Leonard (Humble, TX) The Decemberists’s The Tain is a five-part, 18-minute audiovisual piece in which the music and lyrics obliquely comment on the story, crafted in stop-motion animation using paper silhouettes. In this confluence of music and literature, we hear and see an ancient Irish epic become a twentieth-century folk rock narrative. The combination of roots music with an edge and sly, knowing lyrics—together with the animation—offers an imaginative approach to the legend, the action of which is said to have taken place in the first century CE. The Decemberists’s The Tain. It’s worth the whole 18 minutes, I promise. In the original Irish legend—Táin Bó Cúailnge (pronounced “Tane bo coo-lenje”) or The Cattle Raid of Cooley—Queen Medb of Connacht plots to steal the prize bull of Ulster, the neighboring kingdom. But the bull is protected by the great Irish hero Cúchulainn, who has a number of supernatural friends who mostly help him in his quest to save the bull and, ultimately, Ulster. The battles of the Raid generally involve Cúchulainn (“coo hull-an”) against a single foe, but at times he must take on an entire army by himself, as the other warriors of Ulster are cursed and suffer a debilitating illness. The story of the Raid is one of the oldest in Irish literature and has been translated into English several times. In The Decemberists’s video, the artists include a simplified version of the story using intertitles—a technique from silent film where frames of text help viewers understand the action sequences.

  • Decemberists Albums Free Download Torrent the Decemberists Release Music Video on Bittorrent
    decemberists albums free download torrent The Decemberists Release Music Video on BitTorrent. The indie rock band “The Decemberists” has more faith in BitTorrent than MTV. The band from Portland, Oregon want their video to be available to a wide public, and BitTorrent is the easiest way to do so. For the most part, MTV and VH1 won’t touch video unless bands have sold a huge number of records, it’s impossible to get rotation.” Publishing a video on BitTorrent, is cheap, easy and efficient. The hardcore fans helped to seed the torrent and within a couple of days the torrent was downloaded more that 2000 times. Slim Moon, founder of Kill Rock Stars, the Decemberists’ record label responds: “No matter where you stand on issues of copyright, a network like BitTorrent is really for exactly this kind of thing When you have content that you want to freely distribute, it seems like … the most logical way to distribute.” The video for “Sixteen Military Wives” was shot for less than $6,000 at a high school in Portland, Oregon, and features members of the band participating in a Model United Nations, a simulation popular in high schools to teach students about problem-solving and international relations. In the video, Decemberists singer Colin Meloy represents the United States and boldly declares war on Luxembourg, a not-so-subtle jab at the Bush administration’s decision to go to war. By the way, their album “Castaways and Cutouts” probably looks familiar to most people in the BitTorrent community. The Decemberists Albums: Ranked from Worst to Best.

  • Alternative Cds Dominate 2006'S Best
    Alternative CDs dominate 2006’s best Top 10 albums of ‘06 w Jared Delmar w Managing Editor Each year around this time, magazines that cover entertainment news publish lists of the best performances of the preceding year. West Word is no exception; the Around Town section of the paper regularly publishes reviews of films, television programs, video games, restaurants and other media, including music. This year’s top 10 albums include: 1 0 . 45:33 – LCD Soundsystem A treadmill run, “programming inclines and speed throughout,” is what LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy describes is the basis for 45:33, a sprawling and, as the title suggests, 45 minute and 33 second long epic. With no really central melody throughout, and the lyrics appearing in short bursts every 10 minutes or so, 45:33 is a perfect paradigm for 2006’s unconventional tendencies. It was originally designed, so Murphy says, to require very little focus and for the beat not to rival the pace of running. Regardless, it is also easy to to see the appeal even while sitting on a sofa or car seat. 9. Shut Up I Am Dreaming – Sunset Rubdown Beginning modestly, with the lo-fi debut Snake’s Got A Leg, Sunset Rubdown was Spencer Krug, a five-dollar Casio and a four-track recorder. Krug had full creative control over—well—himself, as a solo artist, and this fact remains unchanged as SunsetRubdown adopted three new members for their sophomore album. Krug, having performed vocally with other groups (Frog Eyes, Destroyer and Wolf Parade), brings more to the table than just his voice.
