Emancipation Proclamation

Bam! Guest post.

I’ve long since left the hallowed halls of WRMC for the rat race of DC, but I was reading over the blog and I was inspired to contribute some new music of my own.

Emancipator just released his second album, ‘Safe in the Steep Cliffs’ back in December, and I love it.

I hope you do too, here’s a little listen courtesy of YouTube.

Let's start a caravan!

The National: World Premiere

The lead-off track from High Violet, out May 11, sets the bar quite high.

Check it out on Fallon. What starts out as mediocre builds to pure, almost-punk bliss.

I once collected butterflies. I still collect coins.

You've had midterms and haven't been up on your tunes . . .

WRMC understands. We've got you covered.

Here We Go Magic- "Collector"

"Collector" is the first single from Here We Go Magic's second album. It's set to be released this summer.

the glory days are coming!

"glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever"

-napoleaon bonaparte, (yeah the emperor)

canada's glory days may have passed with the end of the olympics, but canadian pop's will come on may 4th!

superstars ac newman and neko case have reunited with all of the new pornographers (and a star studded list of guests, including the dap kings, that girl from st. vincent, and will sheff from okkervil river) to release together, their 5th studio album on may 4th. from the sounds of the first single off the album, this album should secure the new pornographers place in obscurity forever. it's everything poppy and you love about the new pornographers only cooler and more modern.

slightly less exciting than full albums are pre-released singles:

"Your Hands (Together)"

even better is the may 4th release of a new broken social scene record forgiveness rock record. after keeping fans waiting in suspense for the past 4 years, kevin drew, the group leader, has finally gotten a group together to continue breaking the social scene. past broken social scene albums have featured heavily other indie artists, including feist, regina spector and that dude who plays the horn in stars, however they have trimmed down the number of musicians featured in each song and are focusing on a, in the words of kevin drew, "core-member album". by the sounds of it they are going to rock it again!

check out this tight 7 min release!

"World Sick"

These wonderful folks are our General Board 2009-2010. Or at least, the members in attendance this week.



And these are your Executive Board and Concert Committee this year. Chris DiOrio, one of our Concert Committee members, is unfortunately not in this picture.



These crazy kids are the Exec Board.
