#Best vic chesnutt songs series
This year’s event will occur in a series of Saturday evening performances over the course of three weekends (Sept. Furlined Records Compilation 2.0 by Furlined RecordsĪLL FOLKS AT HOME: While many annual events are being straight-up canceled and postponed, a decent number are also going virtual, and that’s the case with the 36th Annual North Georgia Folk Festival. The styles here are pretty varied, but all have a sense of tunefulness and discernible constructiveness which marks them as mightily distinct from the plethora of straight-noise/free-form releases which have largely defined the Athens experimental scene since that time. It’s a wonderful time capsule archiving select tracks from such luminaries as Crown Vic, Untied States, Mandy Jane & The Jaws of Life, 5000, Coin Star, The Launch Codes and others. To wit, the label’s Furlined Records Compilation 2.0 was originally released in late 2009 but just landed on streaming services a few weeks back. The easiest terminology would be to categorize the difficult-to-pigeonhole label as one of the forerunners in cataloging the experimental rock scene of Athens and other close municipalities. Oh! Miss Destroyer by Miss DestroyerįROM THE ARCHIVES: One of Athens’ longest-running yet slowest-moving labels has been the somewhat inscrutable and rather opaque Furlined Records. Follow along with the group at /missdestroyerband.
Highlights here include the title track, “Heaven Under Hell,” and what’s honestly the best track of the batch, “Doomsday.” This EP is available on all streaming services, including. Occasionally, the group can become slightly long-winded and navel-gaze-y (“Acquaintance”) but for the most part has a solid handle on restrained arrangements as well as a firm grasp of melody. The three-piece group deftly surfs a nice wave of classic pop that lives somewhere in the seemingly incongruous intersection between David Bowie, ‘70s R&B and ‘80s smooth talkers like Simply Red, Crowded House and The Style Council. The band has been around for just over a year, but its members have been involved in the Athens music scene for several years. LET’S BUILD: The debut EP from new Athens indie rockers Miss Destroyer, named Oh! Miss Destroyer, came out a few weeks ago.
