Joanna Newsom - What We Have Known Song from her '03 "Yarn and Glue" EP. Absolutely stunning. I saw this version wasn't on youtube so I had to upload it immediately. To be re-released on vinyl on a date TBA by Drag City (aka the best record label evar!) Enjoy the song. Furthermore, enjoy some green with the song if you are so inclined, as this song lends itself very well to that sort of thing - uploaded via www.mp32u.net

Slay Tracks (19331969) (also referred to as Slay Tracks) is the debut extended play by the American indie rock band Pavement. Pavement, then consisting of founding members Stephen Malkmus (guitar, vocals) and Scott Kannberg (guitar), recorded Slay Tracks with producer and future member Gary Young (drums) during a four hour session. The EP was released as a 7" vinyl record on the band's own record label Treble Kicker in 1989. The music in Slay Tracks is influenced by indie and punk rock bands, including Swell Maps and The Fall, and many of the lyrics are inspired by life in the band's hometown of Stockton, California. Although only 1000 copies of Slay Tracks were pressed, the EP became an underground hit, largely due to a cover of its second track, "Box Elder", by English band The Wedding Present. It was met with generally positive reviews from critics, though most of its initial reviews were from independently produced zines. The songs on Slay Tracks would later appear on the 1993 compilation Westing (By Musket & Sextant), reaching a wider audience than the EP's limited initial release. The release of Slay Tracks was significant to Pavement's signing to Drag City, and later to Matador Records. Pavement was formed in 1989 in Stockton, California by Stephen Malkmus and Scott Kannberg. Malkmus and Kannberg had previously performed together in the band Bag O' Bones.[3] Pavement had its start playing at open mike nights at clubs and bars.[4] The songs the band played during <b>...</b>

Pavement's much anticipated set at the Pitchfork Festival 2010 was introduced by Rian Murphy of Drag City, claiming he was a former DJ of local alternative station Q101. While the crowd was seriously annoyed by him, I found his intentions to be completely hilarious. He was taking huge advantage of being able to hold us off from seeing Pavement for another painful 6 minutes. Extremely funny. Here is Rian Murphy's information at wikipedia: "Rian Murphy is a producer and session musician for the Chicago record label Drag City. He has worked with Appendix Out, Palace Music, Smog, Royal Trux, the Silver Jews and Edith Frost. In 2001, Murphy released the EP All Most Heaven with Will Oldham."

Not long after they received Sweet Sixteen, complete with its notorious cover of an excrement- and vomit-filled toilet, Virgin Records realized Royal Trux may not be a crossover act. They were willing to let the band go, giving them severance pay and the master tapes to their recently completed album, Accelerator, which was then released on their old home, Drag City. Listening to the album, it's hard to believe that a major label funded such an exhilaratingly noisy record. Ostensibly the third installment in their ongoing salute to particular decades in rock history -- that is, Thank You took on the '60s, Sweet Sixteen saluted the '70s -- Royal Trux deconstructs '80s rock on Accelerator, running all the instruments through some sort of electronic distortion, taking away the bass, trying to make it sound processed. Since this is Royal Trux, the result still is indebted to the Stones and astoundingly messy, but that's why Accelerator rocks like a demon, running over everything in sight. The album sounds chaotic, but there are some great songs hidden under the cacophony, like the explosive "I'm Ready," the soul vamp "Juicy, Juicy, Juice," and the soul-tinged closer, "Stevie." Royal Trux have rarely had both their songwriting and noise under control like they do here, and the result is pure dynamite -- possibly their best album to date. [Allmusic.com]
