Today's Quick Mention: Sufjan Stevens
is coming to town! More specifically, he'll be
at the Long Center on October 19. The show
isn't currently listed on the venue's
site,
so I'm lost on how pricey it might be. Any
ideas? What's too much for a show from this
guy?
So why did Built To Spill's
Doug Martsch and Brett Nelson take a bunch of the
band's songs and rework them into 80s-esque wonders
under the moniker of The Electronic Anthology
Project? I have absolutely no idea,
but you have to give it up to them for knowing how
to really take advantage of spare time. Grab
the project's self titled EP here.
Enjoy.
:The
Electronic Anthology Project - What If Your Dull (I Would
Hurt A Fly):
It could very well just be me, but I prefer this version.
It's more dramatic and where the original felt sort of like
a simplistic grunge track, the darker and electronic-centric
arrangement here makes for one great headphone-worthy
listen. Now, if we're lucky we'll see if it works live
when Built To Spill plays Stubb's on October 22.
