SPIN reviews Times Infinity Volume II by The Dears

SPIN Review

If you’ve ever witnessed a tornado, one of the most telling signs of looming danger and destruction is the chartreuse green sky that precedes the storm. There is a lyric on the Dears’ new album, Times Infinity Volume Two, that adeptly captures the hazardous feeling of looking out at the sky during the calmer moments of a storm, knowing things are bad and you’re definitely not emerging on the other side yet. “Come in before the moment exhausts our love,” sings Murray Lightburn on “1998,” as a dark, plucky bass rhythm pulses beneath like an irregular heartbeat. There is a sound of weariness in his voice, as well as the knowledge it can only get worse before it gets better. READ MORE…

Clash Magazine interviews The Dears’ Murray Lightburn on his Canadian identity

Clash Magazine Interview

It’s now 150 years since the confederation of Canada.

That’s not a long time. In fact, the Clash team probably pass trees older than that on their way to our London office.

It is, though, an important milestone. Canadian identity is continually evolving, twisting between many different poles, absorbing many different facets.

The Dears’ frontman Murray Lightburn has always been proud of his Canadian identity, but his experience is much more nuanced than simple patriotism.

Here, he writes for Clash about how he views his Canadian identity, and how it is constructed.

I have lost count of how many times I’ve been asked: “…ya but where are you really from?” It reminds me of the assumption, when I am out in public carrying a guitar case, that: 1. there is a bass inside and 2. I probably play funk. In reality, I’m just a “Canadian kid” who sings and plays guitar in an “indie rock” band. READ MORE…

No Depression Reviews Bern Kelly’s new record Lost Films

No Depression Review

Bern Kelly’s got an inviting voice that will draw your ear in. You’ll wonder where you heard it before — it’s got a sweet quality to it, but there’s a rasp that tells of long nights and tales to go with them. Lost Films certainly has some punchy stuff, that’s not quite the point. Kelly has used Lost Films to showcase his top picks from ten years’ worth of songwriting. It shows. The songs ramble through various micro-ecosystems of Americana, and their well-worn feel will again make you wonder if you’ve heard them somewhere before. But it’s Kelly’s painterly approach that will make Lost Films stand out. READ MORE…

Glide Magazine premieres Fairbanks & the Lonesome Light’s “Revelation”

Erik Flores and Amelia Rose Logan’s songs as Fairbanks & the Lonesome Light are like modern dime westerns—gritty exegeses that float elegantly on pedal steel as driven, electric, rocking country. Sometimes the detached hero and the despicable outlaw in their songs are one and the same. READ MORE…
