Peter Silberman of The Antlers
I’ve already mentioned the Brooklyn trio here, here, and here throughout A Round of Sound’s short history, but I just feel it necessary to bring up their amazing album Hospice whenever I get a chance. And well, another opportunity has presented itself as their live show from the August 21st Hospice re-release concert has been made available to download in its entirety. The show can be downloaded here, but I of course suggest picking up the LP which after the Frenchkiss re-release is finally starting garner the praise it deserves. It may be backwards to say this, but the live show doesn’t do the album justice…seriously.
Speaking of praise, Pitchfork finally got around to reviewing it and honored it with their Best New Music tag and recommended it on their ABC World News Webcast feature here. Oh, and finally, you can catch their first video supporting the album which is of “Two”, one of the best songs of the year. Phew! Ok, I promise no more Antlers news for a while…maybe
