I know pretty much everyone has already seen/heard this but it’s just too gorgeous to pass up. Justin Vernon‘s voice is perfect for cold weather. I’ve been listening to his CDs on repeat on my walks to school and it clicks very well. And now he goes and covers Feist. How awesome would it be if someday in the future they recorded something together?

Vernon and Feist both appear not once but twice on the Dark Was the Night compilation everyone’s buzzing about. Pre-order it here.
I don’t really understand what this is. Some Hazmat suit-wearing cell phone-loving YACHT-seeing event. If you’re in NY…go or whatever tonight. Weirdos.

Okay so I know pretty much all of you have heard this song already but it’s for a good cause! I just found this out.
Neko Case has released a new single, “People Got A Lotta Nerve,” that is available as a free download at the Anti- Records website.
The record label plans to make a donation to the Best Friends Animal Society for every blogger that posts the song and every iLike user who adds it to his or her profile, according to a press release.
The promotion for the song, which is the first single from Case’s new album, “Middle Cyclone,” will run from Jan. 14 to Feb. 3. Five dollars will be donated for every blog post and $1 for every iLike user that adds the song to their profile.
“Middle Cyclone” will be released March 3.
So basically for putting this song on my blog Anti- will donate $5 to a good cause, the Best Friends Animal Society. So NOW we know why Neko almost always mentions animals in her stuff…anyway go to the song’s iLike page and add it to your profile and you’ll be helping out too!
Ok so I just had to share this. Most of you have already heard Franz Ferdinand‘s new album Tonight (if you haven’t, you can stream the whole thing at Myspace) but as you may have heard, there’s a deluxe edition of the album featuring another disc entitled Blood: Tonight which features dub versions of several songs off Tonight. If you didn’t think Tonight was dancey enough, check out the dub disc. It’s mind-blowing. For sampling, check out the AMAZING track below. Oh, and turn up the bass.
I am definitely loving White Lies‘ album To Lose My Life and am super anxious to see these guys live at SXSW. In the mean time they’ve been getting the remix treatment to which I have no argument.
So, new cool band alert! They’re from Belgium (home to Soulwax, waffles, and the Dardenne Brothers) so they’ve gotta be awesome right? They’re called Soldout and really I don’t know a whole lot about them. I received their album Cuts and am loving it’s electro gooey-ness. Female vox. Great beats. Rad. Definitely check them out! They will (hopefully) be huge.

Here at DOH, we definitely lurv us some Shara Worden aka My Brightest Diamond. We mentioned back in November that Shara had released an EP of remixes from her sophomore release A Thousand Shark’s Teeth. It was the first of several EPs where one musician remixed different tracks from the record.
Well Asthmatic Kitty announced today that the second ep, Shark Remixes – Vol 2: Son Lux of the series, this time the remixer is Son Lux, was available starting today.
