Fifteen Favorite Animal Songs by Animal Bands
Today at 5 p.m. EST, I'll be popping into Etsy's incredibly cool Virtual Labs for an event called Shop Live. If you can snag one of the 150 spots in the room (registration is required, but so worth it) you can join me as I dish about Paste's picks for the very best animal-inspired goods on Etsy—mostly handmade stuff for ladies, guys and kids, but I'll throw in a few vintage picks, too. I'm so incredibly excited about the Etsy folks asking me to be a part of this, so I made of some of the best animal songs by... read more

In May, we told you of the extensive and eclectic Guitar Hero 5 tracklist, which was to feature 83 bands from The White Stripes and Vampire Weekend to Bob Dylan and The Rolling Stones. Now that the list of artists has been confirmed, it's gotten even weirder: GH5 boasts Elliott Smith's "LA," TV On the Radio's "Wolf Like Me," My Morning Jacket's "One Big Holiday," and Band of Horses' "Cigarettes, Wedding Bands," among other alternately rocking and puzzling jewels. ... read more

Found in: Blogs, 1000 WordsBonnaroo 2009: Band of Horses Bring it on Home, Steal Our Hearts
I'd been hyping up this show pretty much all damn Bonnaweekend, but it fully met my expectations. Really, there were so many great acts I got to see at the festival (some old and familiar, some brand new to my ears), but Band of Horses and I, we've been going steady for several months now. Things are getting serious. And if you ask me, there's no better time to see a band live than when you're right in the thick of that phase. I was a bit late to jump on the Bandwagon of Horses, having immersed myself in Everything... read more

After its first day spotlighted depth, Day Two at Monolith was a chance for the big dogs of the line-up to roam free. Sure, there was some sterling Ben Foldsian pop from Washington D.C.’s Jukebox The Ghost to start the afternoon, a bit of smoky folk rock from former Paste Band of the Week The Rosewood Thieves, and a spirited fireball of a set from Tokyo Police Club. But the day belonged to a succession of four artists who dominated the Monolith main stage in four different ways...... read more
