self-titled - no. 2 - (Page 52)

FROM the STACKS T rendsetting blogs can only tell you so much about the state of music these days, what with the way they change their damn mind on a daily basis. That’s why self-titled’s staff digs through piles of CDs every day—to sift the classics-in-waiting from that all-too-common realm of complete crap. Here are some standouts at the moment … RIYL: Sepia-toned memories of skipping stones and actually feeling stoned; lake-effect snow and a warm carafe of coffee; watching yesterday pull away in your rearview mirror 4. Duchess Says Recent Release: Anthologie des 3 Perchoirs (Alien8) Vibe: Everything we loved about fellow Montreal natives Les Georges Leningrad, only without the warped sense of humor and crap-tastic Flintstones costumes. RIYL: Spazzing the fuck out; the (male-backed) Le Tigre reunion that’ll never happen; Juan MacLean’s past life as Six Finger Satellite’s guitarist 1. Jonas Reinhardt Forthcoming Release: Jonas Reinhardt (Kranky) Vibe: A Tangerine Dream haunted by Zombi and the drunken droogs from A Clockwork Orange. RIYL: Moog-tastic madness; a planetarium program aimed at “the kids”; chill-out rooms from the late’90s (i.e., back when the Orb was playing Lollapalooza) 3. All the Saints Recent Release: Fire on Corridor X (Touch & Go) Vibe: Standing in front of a massive Marshall stack while someone coos all Jim Reid-like (kinda) from a few feet away. RIYL: Golf ball-slinging hailstorms; a place to bury riffs and reference points; chain-linked guitar pedals 5. Mamiffer Recent Release: Hirror Enniffer (Hydra Head) Vibe: Ominously rumbling and triumphantly uplifting—this pianodriven instru-metal scratches both extremes. RIYL: Moving land mass with your mind; palatable darkness; wishing Godspeed You! Black Emperor would make another record 2. The Sight Below Recent Release: No Place For Us (Ghostly International) Vibe: Muffled minimal techno buried under a bed of nocturnal Eno emissions. 52 Table of Contents for the Digital Edition of self-titled - no. 2self-titled - no. 2ContentsMarnie SternSpinto BandMichnaLindstromFlaming LipsThe Faint on Aphex TwinHarvey MilkOf MontrealGrowingTricky - The self-titled InterviewContents (continued)A Place to Bury StrangersJay ReatardThe Melvinsself-titled - no. 2self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 1)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 2)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 3)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 4)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 5)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 6)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 7)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 8)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 9)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 10)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 11)self-titled - no. 2 - self-titled - no. 2 (Page 12)self-titled - no. 2 - Contents (Page 13)self-titled - no. 2 - Marnie Stern (Page 14)self-titled - no. 2 - Spinto Band (Page 15)self-titled - no. 2 - Michna (Page 16)self-titled - no. 2 - Michna (Page 17)self-titled - no. 2 - Michna (Page 18)self-titled - no. 2 - Lindstrom (Page 19)self-titled - no. 2 - Flaming Lips (Page 20)self-titled - no. 2 - Flaming Lips (Page 21)self-titled - no. 2 - The Faint on Aphex Twin (Page 22)self-titled - no. 2 - The Faint on Aphex Twin (Page 23)self-titled - no. 2 - Harvey Milk (Page 24)self-titled - no. 2 - Harvey Milk (Page 25)self-titled - no. 2 - Of Montreal (Page 26)self-titled - no. 2 - Growing (Page 27)self-titled - no. 2 - Tricky - The self-titled Interview (Page 28)self-titled - no. 2 - Tricky - The self-titled Interview (Page 29)self-titled - no. 2 - Tricky - The self-titled Interview (Page 30)self-titled - no. 2 - Tricky - The self-titled Interview (Page 31)self-titled - no. 2 - Tricky - The self-titled Interview (Page 32)self-titled - no. 2 - Tricky - The self-titled Interview (Page 33)self-titled - no. 2 - Tricky - The self-titled Interview (Page 34)self-titled - no. 2 - Contents (continued) (Page 35)self-titled - no. 2 - A Place to Bury Strangers (Page 36)self-titled - no. 2 - A Place to Bury Strangers (Page 37)self-titled - no. 2 - A Place to Bury Strangers (Page 38)self-titled - no. 2 - A Place to Bury Strangers (Page 39)self-titled - no. 2 - A Place to Bury Strangers (Page 40)self-titled - no. 2 - A Place to Bury Strangers (Page 41)self-titled - no. 2 - Jay Reatard (Page 42)self-titled - no. 2 - Jay Reatard (Page 43)self-titled - no. 2 - Jay Reatard (Page 44)self-titled - no. 2 - Jay Reatard (Page 45)self-titled - no. 2 - Jay Reatard (Page 46)self-titled - no. 2 - Jay Reatard (Page 47)self-titled - no. 2 - Jay Reatard (Page 48)self-titled - no. 2 - Jay Reatard (Page 49)self-titled - no. 2 - The Melvins (Page 50)self-titled - no. 2 - The Melvins (Page 51)self-titled - no. 2 - The Melvins (Page 52)self-titled - no. 2 - The Melvins (Page 53)http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/popmartmedia/self-titled_no5http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/popmartmedia/self-titled_no4http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/popmartmedia/self-titled_no3http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/popmartmedia/self-titled_no2http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/popmartmedia/self-titled_no1http://www.nxtbookMEDIA.com
