At the Castledoor


Well, it's time for me to apologize on behalf of all of us. Moving files over to the new server is becoming quite a chore, and everyone here either has had something come up to preoccupy them from working on it or doesn't have the neccesary PHP and HTML skills. So, expect delays. We're working on it though. I have some brief music news and I'll post about some CDs I've gotten recently too though.
For the brief news: Pitchfork has details about the new Radiohead album. Heh, it's funny to see Paste Music and Suicide Girls advertise on the same page. In other news, a few former members of the once-boyband-pop group Plus One have attempted to reinvent themselves as an indie pop act, Castledoor. It's not half bad, considering their background, actually. You can listen to (and download!) some of their stuff here. Lastly, Sam Ashworth and Matt Slocum are preparing to tour the U.S. west coast. We're already making plans to cover a show. It appears that the show will be based on Sam's original material, and not on material from Astronaut Pushers (with both Matt and Sam are in) or Sixpence None the Richer (which Matt was in).
I've gotten a good deal of new CD's lately. Not that that's news or even exciting, but it takes up space and makes it look like I've been doing more work around here:
  • Portishead - Dummy
  • Tess Wiley - Not Quite Me
  • Pedro the Lion's Achilles Heel
  • Bill Malonee - Perfumed Letter
  • Sam Phillips - The Fan Dance
  • Frank Lenz - The Hot Stuff
