For whatever reason, I try to ignore Pitchfork as much as I can. (Go ahead and hate me.) However, this morning, It’s A Trap! reported that Pitchfork had interviewed the Tough Alliance. So I had to go and read it. Although I don’t actually listen to them very much, I have enormous appreciation for TTA -- and this interview only validated it. It’s unmissable.
Also on It’s A Trap! this morning, the news that El Perro del Mar, along with Lykke Li and Anna Ternheim (who, a couple years ago, recorded that beautiful cover of Broder Daniel’s Shoreline), will play in Portland, at the Doug Fir, on 16. May. Happy as I was to see that she’d return to the US, I was also disappointed. This is too soon. This is exactly three weeks before my essential birthday. When El Perro del Mar played Portland last March, I heard third-hand that her show was awesome, which is probably about what I’ll get this time, too. Thank you, thank you, OLCC, for all the happiness you bring to my life.
