There is a trend in movie and gaming trailers where they take a popular song and reimagine them. The formula is usually keep the original vocals, add a bunch of distorted synths, and finish it out with a punching drum beat. That is why the world now has a synthetic version of The White Stripes anthem "Seven Nation Army" that it does not need. This time, comic giants DC have taken their turn and partnered with blues man Gary Clark Jr. for the film Justice League with a cover of the Beatles classic "Come Together." For his cover, Clark seems to have broken the mold a little bit and added his touch to the song. There is still an archetypal drum beat and synths, but it will not make you roll your eyes when you listen to it. Clark's trademark octave fuzz guitar riffs are all over this song. "Come Together" grooves along and it makes you want to tap your foot; however, it's biggest sin is the guitar solo. Gary Clark Jr. can shred and build up to the

Demos are often a snapshot into the creative process of an artist. The raw, unpolished nature gives the listener a different look at the music they love so much. Sufjan Stevens shared his demo for the Carrie & Lowell track "John My Beloved." The track is part of a new mixed tape titled The Greatest Mix Tape - Outtakes, Remixes, & Demos from Carrie & Lowell . The mix tape features the extra material from Sufjan Stevens' critically acclaimed 2015 release Carrie & Lowell . The demo was recorded on Stevens' iPhone with just his voice and an acoustic guitar. While the demo does not hold a candle to the produced product found on the record, the demo version of "John My Beloved" has its own magic to it. The listener gets the feeling that they are sitting on the couch in the corner while Stevens puts the finishing touches on his song. The Greatest Mix Tape - Outtakes, Remixes, & Demos from Carrie & Lowell is out on Nov. 24 via Asth

Beach Slang is known for a few things: heart on their sleeves lyrics, reckless rock music and obnoxiously long titles. So when it was announced in August  that the band's newest release was not going to have a guitar on it, fans of the band were interested. What followed was a four song EP titled,  We Were Babies & We Were Dirtbags . The EP had no new material. Rather, it had two songs from previous albums and two covers. We Were Babies & We Were Dirtbags starts off with "Future Mixtape For Art Kids" from their 2016 release A Loud Bash Of Teenage Feelings.  Hearing the words, " Play it loud/Play it fast/Play me something that will always last " translated well when played on piano; even though, it was a little odd that the imagery of the lyrics did not quite match the music. However, frontman James Alex has mastered the ability to translate his music to whatever he is doing. My personal favorite song on the EP was the second track, "Bad Art &

Seminal riot grrrl act Sleater-Kinney released a new song "Here We Come" as part of the series 7-inches For Planned Parenthood . The series is a collection of songs from artists like Chvrches, The National, Foo Fighters, Bon Iver, and many others to raise money for the organization. The song, "Here We Come" was recorded during the sessions for their 2015 album No Cities Left Love . The song is full of the punk rock angst that you expect from a Slater-Kinney track. It grooves along like you would believe. With the members of Sleater-Kinney working on their own projects, this song will be your hold over until another album is released. Listen to "Here We Come" below.

Background : Mark Kozelek (Sun Kil Moon, Red House Painters) collaborates with pianist Ben Boye (Ty Segall, The Weather Station) and drummer Jim White (Dirty Three). The album will be Kozelek's fourth of the year, following February's monstrous Common as Light and Love Are Red Valleys of Blood , 30 Seconds to the Decline of Planet Earth  with Jesu, and June's Yellow Kitchen  with Parquet Court bassist Sean Yeaton. Review : Honestly, it's just another Mark Kozelek album. At this point, that is what any listener familiar with his extensive discography would come to expect. Rambling stream-of-consciousness lyrics about any topic imaginable and fairly low-key instrumentation are hallmarks of Kozelek's last few years. However, his best projects have something that sets them apart. 2015's Benji  had its heartbreaking stories and extra personal lyrics. Even Common as Light  was blessed with varied instrumentation to break up the sometimes monotonous 130 minutes.

Lotta Sea Lice is the album you did not know you wanted but you definitely now need. When it was announce d in August that Courtney Barnett and Kurt Vile were releasing an album together, the music world let out a collective shriek of excitement. The collaboration between Barnett, Australia's wittiest songwriter, and Vile, Philadelphia's most relaxed guitarist, came together like a match made in heaven.  Vile has a distinctive rambling drawl that leads the listener down the rabbit hole. While on the other hand, Barnett's stream of consciousness delivery, while similar in nature, compliments Vile with its clear and conciseness.  Lotta Sea Lice  opens with the song " Over Everything ." The song is a good overview of what the next eight songs are going to be like. "Over Everything" was the first song released from the album. It features Barnett and Vile swapping guitar and vocal lines like its no big deal. The lyrics in the middle verses talk

Lotta Sea Lice , the much anticipated album from indie rock icons Courtney Barnett and Kurt Vile drops October 13th.

Father John Misty at Surly Fest 2017 Third Man Records is one of the few analog oases in the desert of digital recording. Their Nashville location contains a venue called The Blue Room. The Blue Room is the only live venue in the world that allows artists to cut live performances directly to acetate. The same way they did it at the beginning of music recording. Father John Misty, real name Josh Tillman,  recently did a set at Third Man Records Blue Room as part of their blue label series. In promotion for the record, Father John Misty has been releasing videos from his solo set.  Even seasoned entertainers are not exempt the stress that comes from cutting a song live without being able to edit it after the fact. In the video above, Tillman mixes up his song "Ballad Of The Dying" from his 2017 release Pure Comedy with 2015s "I Love You, Honeybear." The cynical bearded folk man was able to play off his mistake in typical Father John Misty fashion. Till

Photo from Landon Pahl's Facebook Local singer-song writer Landon Pahl released his debut single, "Nobody Says," on October 9th. Pahl sat down to talk about the song on a radio show called  Local Juke Joint . Pahl says, "It's ["Nobody Says"] geared towards this generation's view on love." He wrote "Nobody Says" as a commentary on hookup culture. "Nobody Says" sounds a lot like a song from  The Pines . The song has that indie folk/rootsy vibe to it. The guitars are dripping in reverb and delay. It creates a swirling atmosphere that Pahl's baritone vocal cuts through. It's a solid debut from the Landon Pahl. Hopefully, this is the first of many more songs. Listen to "Nobody Says" Listen to Landon Pahl's interview on Local Juke Joint.

Minneapolis indie rockers Calvin Heights played an intense set at Driftwood Char Bar Thursday night. The band is playing shows around the Twin Cities in support of their album Worst Calligraphy   which was released in August of this year. The noisy atmosphere created on Worst Calligraphy translates to an even better experience in person. The music comes to life when played in front of people. Their set began with frontman Brett Carey sitting on the floor with a bag over his head. He sat rocking back and forth as his guitar fed back into his amplifier. The rest of the band followed suit until they kicked into their first song "3/7". The bag soon came off when the band continued into the next songs. Taking inspiration from The Pixies, Calvin Heights uses dynamics heavily in their set. The band would be creating as much noise as they could with Brett and fellow guitarist Sam wailing away on their guitars with drummer Jordan Wipf bashing away and then the band would be n

In promotion of the record, they made a video for the songs "King of Piss and Paper" and "Artificial Life." The 10-minute clip was directed by Brooke Linder. Additionally, the band decided to host an AMA ("Ask Me Anything") on Reddit.

To accompany the record Sub Pop put out a behind the scenes video of recording of album. The video features members of the band messing around between takes. Not much of the actual recording is shown in the video. However, the video is a cool snapshot into what bands do in the down time during recording sessions.

Photo courtesy the Star Tribune  Progressive folk giants Fleet Foxes played two sold out shows at The Palace Theater on September 30th and October 1st. The band was touring in support of their return album Crack Up which was released in June of this year. Ear Coffee sent its two best (and only writers) to cover the second night because we are dedicated to bring you the news (also Robin Pecknold is also bae). For a venue, the Palace Theater, was the perfect venue for Fleet Foxes. The building itself is super vibey and has a reclaimed look. The front of house engineer knew what he was doing. Both bands that night sounded, for the most part, crystal clear in the PA. Pictures of the stage from the balcony The opening act was a Canadian indie band named Nap Eyes. In true indie rock fashion, there were a great number of Fender offset guitars on stage. The band started precisely at 7:30 that night. Which was a surprise because rock music never starts on time.
