New Emo // Night Language by Molly Shannon, Molly Shannon

 

Shared by Balam Acab on facebook, this album by Portland Oregon band Molly Shannon, Molly Shannon turned out to be interesting and a breath of fresh air.  The vocals seem right, and the instrumentation is apparently organic, like real instruments; reminds me of early Modest Mouse. "Everything made, produced, broken, replaced, repaired, recorded by msms over 8 strange years of pain & damage." 

 Stay sad, my friends.

Remix: The Visitors "Lightspeed" MAGIC FADES REMIX

Magic Fades takes on Portland homies The Visitors new single "Lightspeed", honing their remixing skills to remarkable effect. They abandon the original's retro-eighties hi-NRG track entirely, but keep the strong vocals intact, transforming the song into a neo-R&B-flavored elevator.
And just in case you missed their excellent December 2012 album release Obsession on Мишка, it's still a free download, and there are lots of goodies on their Soundcloud too.
