Description
One of of the Moldy Peaches (and Juno soundtrack star) ADAM GREEN brings his latest Rough Trade CD to town. "Green's often squirrelly songs are now filled out by swooning orchestrations of wistful pedal steel, soaring strings, and even some wily pan pipes. And though on previous albums, Green's ornate orchestrations often read as winking hipster re-imaginings of schmaltzy easy listening, the 70s radio that he and Campbell evoke here has a playlist that's part 60s hangover, part swaggering disco-funk, and part sax-fueled Bowie 'plastic soul.'" -- Pitchfork"A lo-fi lone wolf from Brooklyn, TIM FITE is somewhere between folk and hip-hop, and with his latest album -- a harsh indictment of consumerism and the American dream of selling out -- he has made himself into a cultural gadfly." --New York Times
