Hiss Golden Messenger Leave Their Mark at Music Hall of Williamsburg

Hiss Golden Messenger – Music Hall of Williamsburg – December 18, 2018

Hiss Golden Messenger playing these parts late in the year has kind of become a thing. “We’ve got a tradition going,” said MC Taylor last night as he took the stage at Music Hall of Williamsburg, the band’s fourth consecutive holiday season in New York City. But first, a little background: Taylor’s been quietly doing a soulful, bluesy take on country-tinged psychedelic rock and folk for a decade, crafting what The Atlantic calls “one of the most impressive bodies of songwriting of the past 10 years.” And while his first few albums didn’t make a whole lot of noise, the last three Hiss full-lengths, 2014′s Lateness of Dancers, 2016’s Heart Like a Levee and 2017’s Hallelujah Anyhow, have been like a Murderers’ Row.

While Taylor technically is Hiss Golden Messenger, he’s backed by a wildly talented supporting cast of musicians, including fan-favorite Phil Cook—radiating positivity on the keys and guitar (and always eliciting “Phiiiiiiiiiil!” calls from the crowd)—Matt McCaughan on drums, Michael Libramento on bass and Josh Kaufman on guitar. And it’s not just that each musician is talented, it’s that they all clearly have an infectious fondness for one another that comes across in the music, spilling over the stage. They play with the unbridled joy of a group of people who know how lucky they are that they get to travel the world making music together to a raucous response.

After a spirited “Jenny of the Roses,” Taylor mentioned, “I was in a restaurant a little while ago and someone sent over two empanadas, which is the perfect thing to give me to play a Grateful Dead song,” to applause. “We’re not gonna play that song. You’ll see.” So when the band later made a seamless transition from “Lucia” into the Dead’s “Franklin Tower,” it wasn’t a total surprise. Taylor often spoke to the crowd over the course of the night, at one point admitting that when he told his young daughter he’d write her a song for her birthday and then played it for her, she was … unimpressed. He also spoke of “a record we recorded but you haven’t heard yet.”

As endearing as the between-songs banter was, the night was chiefly about the music and how Hiss Golden Messenger masterfully gave numbers like “Mahogany Dread,” “Red Rose Nantahala” and “O Little Light” room to grow in the live setting, occasionally augmented by Stuart Bogie’s sax effortlessly slipping into the five-piece’s locked-in nightlong groove. After the frontman performed a couple of songs solo, the full band returned to join him for “Heart Like a Levee,” “I’m a Raven (Shake Children Shake),” “Domino (Time Will Tell)” and, finally, an enthusiastic audience-assisted “Southern Grammar.” Throughout the show, Taylor constantly showered praise on his bandmates and offered up love and gratitude to those assembled to bear witness. Hiss Golden Messenger’s like if your favorite dive bar also serves Michelin-starred food. —R. Zizmor | @Hand_Dog

Album Review: The Lawrence Arms - Skeleton Coast

Album Review: The Lawrence Arms – Skeleton Coast

Words: Nate Holdren

Punk trio The Lawrence Arms started in the late 90s in Chicago, releasing five barn-burner full lengths and touring relentlessly over their first seven or so years. The band slowed to what I imagine is a more liveable schedule after their 2006 record ‘Oh, Calcutta!’ but continued making urgent and creatively daring punk music. Now they’re back with their newest full length, ‘S…

HISS GOLDEN MESSENGER / Quietly Blowing It

June 25, 2021

PREORDER!

TRACKLIST:

1. Way Back in the Way Back 2. The Great Mystifier 3. Mighty Dollar 4. Quietly Blowing It 5. It Will If We Let It 6. Hardlytown 7. If It Comes in the Morning 8. Glory Strums (Loneliness of the Long-Distance Runner) 9. Painting Houses 10. Angels in the Headlights 11. Sanctuary

“In August we carried the old horsehair mattress

To the back porch

And slept with our children in a row.

The wind came up the mountain into the orchard

Telling me something;

Saying something urgent.

I was happy.

The green apples fell on the sloping roof

And rattled down.

The wind was shaking me all night long;

Shaking me in my sleep

Like a definition of love,

Saying, this is the moment,

Here, now.”

—Ruth Stone, 1971

“Here we are. It is March 2021. One year ago, I was sitting down in the very same space from which I am now composing this letter to begin writing the songs that would become the Hiss Golden Messenger record that was announced today. The record is called Quietly Blowing It—and I'm going to leave you to reckon with who is blowing it, & how, & why—and it will arrive on your doorstep in a tidy package with neat emotional boundaries sometime in June. But, of course, the writing of these songs was anything but clean & clear. It was actually quite messy. I was struggling to understand who I am, what my purpose is, in a world like the one that we all share. And I still am, frankly. The process was also joyful. There's nothing quite as liberating as singing, for the first time, a line that really works against a set of old chord changes made new by the melody leaning upon them.

I must have written 20 songs between March & June, often wedging my drum kit into my small 8'x10' studio space in the basement of my house to approximate the grooves that my friend Matt McCaughan would later play with much greater facility. Soon, the eleven songs that appear on Quietly Blowing It had winnowed themselves from the chaff of the others. Thematically, conceptually, & spiritually, they wanted to live together. I won't talk about how the songs are connected here—I'm hoping that will be obvious to you, the listener. I will say, however, that what emerged from all those months of consistent writing uninterrupted by travel or shows is a record that feels as vulnerable & downright interior as anything I've made since Bad Debt, a record I recorded long before anybody knew or cared who or what Hiss Golden Messenger was.

In the coming year, musicians are going be fielding a lot of questions about 'quarantine' albums. I'm going to push back on that narrative in part because I don't want Quietly Blowing It connected to a time in our collective history so rife with chaos, death, anxiety, & gaslighting. But also: Quietly Blowing It is a record that I've badly needed to make for a very long time, but one that I could not find the time or space to make at the pace I was running pre-pandemic. Creating Quietly Blowing It meant reckoning with some things in my life that required a lot of meditation and mediation. And therapy, frankly. Is that an indictment of the way artists have to hustle to make even a meager living? I don't know. Maybe. To me, it's almost like Quietly Blowing It exists on its own private monastery. It hasn't heard of the Coronavirus. And it hasn't heard of whatever else I was getting up to before the world shut down. All of this might not make any sense the way that I'm saying it here, but in my head it makes perfect sense.

In other words: I'm extremely proud of Quietly Blowing It. We made something special. The band on this record—which includes Chris Boerner, Matt McCaughan, Alex Bingham, Devonne Harris, Josh Kaufman, Matt Douglas, Stuart Bogie, Sonyia Turner, Zach Williams, Brevan Hampden, Buddy Miller, James Wallace, and Griffin and Taylor Goldsmith—plays with such breathtaking beauty. It's the sound of a group of people huddled together in a room trying to outrun demons. I can listen to any moment on this album and think, “Ah, yes—I know that feeling exactly.” Quietly Blowing It was mixed by my oldest friend, Scott Hirsch. It felt like coming home. I can't wait for you all to be able to listen to it from front to back. If you like what I do as Hiss Golden Messenger, you're going to love this record. I truly believe that.

I send love and appreciation to Merge Records, Brian Schwartz and Rachel Miller, Adam Voith, Jim Flammia, Luc Suer, my beautiful family, and all my dear musician and artist friends that inspire me to keep going. I also send lots of love and appreciation to you: Thank you all for being on this journey with me. I hope that you're finding some moments of peace & solace in these days of chaos. There is light at the end of the tunnel.

My grateful thanks,

M.C. Taylor

Durham, NC

There was no rest for the weary music writers of the world this week, as it was another heaping offering of new music from all directions. The latest recommended listen album came by way of Potty Mouth, who’ve finally returned after six long years to deliver their sophomore shock to the system SNAFU. Nobody probably would have predicted that the National would be back so soon with their latest effort, however, offering a peak into its soul with its first single. Chatter on Charli Bliss’ highly anticipated new album continued, as did that of Field Medic in spite of his disenchantment, and a self-immolating American Pleasure Club. Meanwhile, a brilliant single from Channel Tres and a new one from Gemma played it cool.

Here’s the best of the rest from the week of March 3rd, 2019…

Fontaines D.C. - “Roy’s Tune” [Partisan Records]

Punks out of Ireland always seem to hold their native land with both an adoring reverence and bitter disdain, with the first half realized out of a love of its people and the potential for its culture to be something so much bigger, and the second being the downsides of when those in power do very little to support either in minding their priorities onto government wealth and shotty politics. Dublin’s Fontaines D.C. are the latest to lend their voices to the plight of rock music as a savior from the country’s ills, and with “Roy’s Tune”, the latest listen from the rising band’s forthcoming debut Dogrel, due out on May 12th, they continue onward in surveying its bleak scene set on lead single “Big” with a melancholic, grey sky drift of guitars moving further in. “I like the way they treat me but I hate the way they use her / I hate the way they use her,” solemnly sings frontman Grian Chatten. Its video, directed by Liam Papadachi, stars Dafhyd Flynn (Michael Inside) in a slice of life portrait of that daily struggle, good and bad. Fontaines D.C. will no doubt be continuing to build buzz on the road in the coming week at this year’s SXSW, and embark on a U.S. tour with fellow isle post-punks Idles later this spring.

The Get Up Kids - “Satellite” [Polyvinyl Records]

Darling emo veterans the Get Up Kids found a fitting home last year when they signed to Polyvinyl Records and put out Kicker, their first new music since the 7 year stretch of silence between 2011′s post-reunion comeback There Are Rules and the now. Fortunately for longtime listeners, Kicker had more in common with the band’s early batch of punchy, fervent guitar punk than the proggy experimental departures of that album, and there’s going to be more of that on the horizon when they release their sixth studio effort Problems on May 10th. What’s been a tale of the best of both worlds with the Get Up Kids’ music these days is how they’ve rediscovered how to faithfully bring their signature sound into the present using their grown-up lens, as is the case with the album’s lead single “Satellite”. It’s a song about feeling isolated and anxious within a crowd, which frontman Matt Pryor pulled inspiration from in his own stage habits and observing those of his contently introverted 14-year-old son. In its video directed by Kerstin Ebert, we watch a cute cardboard creature contend with just that in the big city noise of their daily life.

youtube

Greys - “These Things Happen” [Carpark Records]

Is there something in the water, or does it sounding like the spirit of the‘60s and ‘70s is bleeding its way back into today’s modern punk and indie rock landscape? Bands like Culture Abuse and Angel Du$t have trimmed down their hardcore weight in favor of breezy flower punk, and further down this read, there’s more evidence of tie dyed fashion coming back into style by way of Ezra Koenig’s design. Toronto’s Greys have gradually chiseled away at the gravely post-hardcore the burst onto the scene, and with 2016′s two-fer Outer Heaven and Warm Shadow, they turned their amplifications toward an experimental dreamy gaze further out into the atmosphere. Age Hasn’t Spoiled You, their third proper full-length set for release May 10th, could see them returning to the earth, but not in the way you might anticipate. Its first singles “These Things Happen” simmers in a radiation of psychedelic feedback and harmonious comedowns as frontman Shehzaad Jiwan searches for footing amidst the confusion of our current political climate. “Look at the road behind you / See how far you’ve come from home,” he sings, not necessarily as a fete, but in perspective of how lost we’ve gotten.

Age Hasn't Spoiled You by Greys

Laura Stevenson - “Value Inn” [Don Giovanni Records]

At month’s end, punk songwriter Laura Stevenson will release her fifth studio effort The Big Freeze, an album that while recorded in between the familiar space of her childhood home, feels both vast in its exploration of space and vulnerability compared to all of her work preceding it. She tore the walls right down with a bout of long distance pining on its first single “Living Room, NY”, and on her latest preview “Value Inn”, Stevenson again delivers an emotional wrecking ball into her surrounding interiors. Though this time, it’s not much about seeking comfort in the arms of another as it is an escape from the outside world altogether. ”The song is about going somewhere deliberately to disappear and to harm yourself. And in that isolated place, the loneliness is so extreme that the world feels completely empty, and you are the only one who can pull yourself back out,” she elaborates. Recently, Stevenson wrote a piece for the Talkhouse on her battle with dermatillomania that adds even further context to the listen, further devastated by acoustic reverb and her pierced words. The Big Freeze will without a doubt be Stevenson’s career-defining moment because of this honesty.

youtube

Mary Lattimore & Mac McCaughan - “I” [Three Lobed Records]

In the spring of 2017, Los Angeles multi-instrumentalist Mary Lattimore and Superchunk’s Mac McCaughan turned to an improvised experimental collaboration to rediscover their version of beauty in a world on fire on the heels of a traumatic 2016. The finished result, New Rain Duets, will see the light of day for the rest of us who need it on March 22nd. We’ve already heard the warmly buzzing sprawl of “III”, one of four instrumental compositions that make up the listen, and now the pair have shared the album’s opening part “I”. This one nearly doubles in length at 11-minutes long as it hesitantly tip-toes its way out of the dark by way of Lattimore’s harpsichord ornation before McCaughan illuminates the path her arpeggios dance with sprightly synthesizers. Let this be your reminder to move your clocks forward this weekend for an extra hour of daylight...

New Rain Duets by Mary Lattimore & Mac McCaughan

Pile - “Bruxist Grin” [Exploding In Sound Records]

With bands like Kal Marks and Krill no longer with us (or are they?) and Speedy Ortiz splintered across the northeast, it would seem that Pile are the last band standing from Boston’s DIY scene of the early decade, and for good reason at that. The big-riffed shredding of their early work that never ceased to get compared to ‘90s indie veterans amplified has steadily meticulated itself into its own rock formation over the years, especially as lead singer Rick Maguire does his own aging process justice in his songwriting. That Converge brought them out on tour in support of 2017′s The Dusk In Us is all the seal of approval you need to know that they’re their hometown’s modern day heroes in guitar-slinging. On May 5th, they’ll return with their 7th full-length effort Green and Gray, and its anxiety-filled first listen “Bruxist Grin” makes the most out of Maguire’s twisted up emotions. Guitars cranking and cymbals stomping overhead target a panic attack straight toward his chest, and that there’s a cohesive formation in this imminent chaos is what puts his mind on the defense.

Green and Gray by Pile

Vampire Weekend feat. Steve Lacy - “Sunflower” [Columbia Records]

The details behind the long-awaited new album from Vampire Weekend are making themselves known little by little, as we now know that their fourth studio effort entitled Father of the Bride will be released May 5th. Its official cover art is also a departure from the granular Insta-portrait aesthetic of its predecessors, and shares more in common with patchouli-minded Paint design you'd have found if you wandered into a Dancing Bear store circa ‘96. VW’s hippie prep makeover extends beyond just the visual, however, and into the band’s evolved sound, with one of its two leadoff singles in “Harmony Hall” being spirited by a Dead live jam, and all the more blazoned on “Sunflower” and “Big Blue”, LP4′s latest coupling of singles. The former sees the Internet’s guitar guru Steve Lacy joining Ezra Koenig and company for a brief, but far out journey that leans into free form jazz and psychedelic spheres tripped on in ‘70s FM waves, but without getting lost in the haze. But who knows -- Maybe all the scat-bat-doo-bopping will get a 15-minute-long extended jam once Vampire Weekend begin their summer tour...

Price of Blue 💙

Jen Wasner of Wye Oak is back with her second album as Flock of Dimes. Heart of Roses comes five years after the release of Flock of Dimes’ 2016 debut, If You See Me, Say Yes. The album is produced by Nick Sanborn (Sylvan Esso) and Wasner at Betty’s in Chapel Hill, NC, and features contributions from guitarist Meg Duffy, Bon Iver’s Matt McCaughan, Wye Oak’s Andy Stack, and Landlady’s Adam Schatz.

The standout track on the album is “Price of Blue” a six-and-a-half minute song that begins with a down-beat shoegaze shuffle and ends with a flurry of fuzzy and grungey guitars. This is what Wasner has to say about the song:

This song is about trying, and failing, to connect. It’s about the ways in which, despite our best efforts, we misunderstand each other, and become so attached to stories that we’re unable to see the truth that’s right in front of us. And it’s about the invisible mark that another person can leave on your body, heart and mind long after their absence. It can be difficult to make sense of the memory of your experience when the reality on the surface is always shifting - when the story you’re telling, or the story you’ve been told, unravels, leaving you with a handful of pieces and no idea how they used to fit together.
