Today's Quick Mention: Pitchfork has
reported that Casiotone For The Painfully Alone has
decided to call it quits. Bummer! The
guy (Owen Ashworth) has put out some great stuff, so
he'll certainly be missed. Luckily his final
tour has a stop in Austin. Emo's on September
27. Be there.
I knew Orenda Fink and Maria Taylor were planning to
set aside their solo projects and get back together
to tour as Azure Ray, but it wasn't until today that
I found out the duo had also readied a new album.
Awesome. Drawing Down The Moon is what
the LP is titled, and it will be released by Saddle
Creek on September 14. Enjoy.

Ray - Don't Leave My Mind:
Warmth. It's what Orenda and Maria had going for them
all those years ago, and it's what makes this song shine.
Although, this having such an old school Azure Ray sound
makes me wonder if all of the new full length is the usual
stuff we hear from them when they're together, or if it has
some of the large variety of sounds that their respective
solo projects churned out. Guess we'll see.
Azure Ray - November
