Fleet Foxes - The Shrine / An Argument

This new Fleet Foxes music video is pretty visually impressive. Though its songs come from the album Helplessness Blues (released back in May), the video, which was made public yesterday, was supposedly an eight year project.

new music: tashaki miyaki - get it right

a few months ago, i posted about tashaki miyaki's awesome cover of the everly brother's "all i have to do is dream." this week, she released a video from her first self-titled EP, for the track "get it right." it's beautifully shot in black and white with an unmistakable dream-like quality: of horses, prominent clouds, shadows, and solo journeys along snow covered mountain tops.

You can buy the new EP here.
