New Things, Old Things
Okay, I'm far too lazy this week to do a real post so, instead, I'll point you in the direction of some other quality free products available on the Internets.
Ladyhawk - War
First there's this: a free, non-ablum Ladyhawk track from what Jagjaguwar is reffering to as 'The Mushroom Session', which will probably see release later this year. The song is basically Ladyhawk with the crunchiness replaced with piano and it sounds very nice indeed.
And for those of you who still doubt the awesomeness of the new Ladyhawk album - or are perhaps scared of the naked dancing lady on the cover - you need to immediately reconsider your position. The album is amazing! You're wasting your life as we speak! If you're not convinced, there's this disturbing, presumably fan-made video of the song "My Old Jacknife".
And finally, I want to point you in the direction of the Ladyhawk website's outstanding "And..." section. There you'll find a bunch of MP3s from previous bands the various Ladyhawk members have been part of. My favourite are the MP3s from Jay's former roommate and Ladyhawk lead guitarist Darcy Hancock's previous band The Metic.
The Metic - There Was A Time
And this one from lead singer Duffy Driediger is also pretty great.
Duffy Driediger - In the Old Testament
I think you can still buy some of Duffy's solo stuff from Deer and Bird Records, where you'll also find stuff from other indie rock luminaries such as Jon Rae Fletcher and Jay.

I think I've seen that video before, and I also think it is genuinely from the 80s. But I could be wrong. It reminds me of a circle-square video. That other girl looks like Marta from No No Spots. I dunno.
I'm pretty sure it's Kelly Osborne, spawn of Ozzie, and I'm also pretty sure that it's recent. It probably doesn't matter, though. The message is basically the same either way.
I meant to write Ozzy.
god dammit.. it's that same fucking wolf parade voice
what's with that inflection?
huh?! huh!?
could be on the wolf parade album and nobody would notice the difference
hrmm...
A) both from the okanagan.
B) spencer and duffy used to be roomates.
C) I don't really think they sound alike at all.
Anonymous: that was a pretty bogus piece of music criticism. Also: those two bands really sound nothing alike.
