Harlem
Shake It Up Incorporating the ecstasy prescribed by The White Stripes’ early raw blues-soaked rock and roll and the charming glow of ’60s pop warmed through vinyl, Harlem distills that glorious free spirit so many bands are chasing but so few have managed to pin down. Skewing their songs with love and heartache, their jangly party rock and roll anthems bubble with a ghetto trash punk...

Thursday's Track Reviews
Goes Cube - "Grinding the Knife Blade"; Well it seems Goes Cube are finally over naming their songs after numbers, which is a definitely a good thing, and this rocking ass track certainly sets the bar fairly high for all the actually titled songs to come. Grade: B Art Brut - "Just Desserts"; This may just be the B-side to their lead single, but Art Brut and Eddie Argos...

Harlem MP3s

Harlem : Friendly Ghost mp3
Harlem’s Free Drugs;-) LP is one of our top 40 records of the year (without wanting to give the game away, we’ve only reached 41 in our countdown so far).  So I was excited to hear a snippet from their forthcoming LP Hippies, which you can download after the break. <!--break-->   Friendly Ghost is bouncy and frivilous, a garage pop theme tune for an arthouse Casper...

Austin’s Harlem takes on Devo’s "Come Back Jonee" for the 4th installment of their covers of the month club.

Harlem - Free Drugs:)
I promise I will stop featuring vintage-inspired, lofi, garage-rock soon. I’m sure I will be tired of it by the end of the year, but in the mean-time my speakers are spilling over with fuzzy, jangly rock. My current garage crush is a band from Austin, TX named Harlem, not to be confused with the Shaking variety. Their debut LP, Free Drugs:) was a huge local success. So much so that a re-...
sea snake
drexciya For the latest installment of Harlem’s increasingly weird and awesome Covers of the Month Club, the dudes offer up their version of "Sea Snake," from Detroit techno legends Drexciya. According to the band: "we are late on everything. our van broke down. all the dishes are dirty. curtis is drunk. but we finally got to finish our cover of the month! its a cover...
