Today's Quick Mention: Despite really hoping it would somehow
happen, Bob Nastanovich recently told Quietus that there won't
be any touring or new material coming out of the Pavement reunion. Apparently, Stephen Malkmus was only down for doing a very temporary gathering. Bummer.
Well, it would seem that the big indie labels of the world are after my
heart this week. Yesterday there was a new Barsuk artist, and today I
have a recent addition to Saddle Creek's roster. The name of the band
is Old Canes, they're fueled by Chris
Crisci (The Appleseed Cast) and they have a brand new record titled Feral
Harmonic that's due next Tuesday. Enjoy.

Canes - Little Bird Courage:
"When I'm thirsty/You are the fountain/In the face of
danger/I'm not afraid" This song moves at such a quick
pace that you'd swear Chris was trying to wrap it up and
move on to something else, but I think it's actually because
he's anxious to fit in all the lyrics and sounds that are
bouncing around in his head. Don't worry if
acoustic-driven music is usually beyond your realm of
patience, this was built to impress.
