TIME VS MONEY from THE BYNARS

The Bynars have been inspiring in the ways that their music overflows the stage, their sets quite often (quite literally) leap off the page. Performances interact with fans live, on the web and the band has found ways to allow fans to inspire one another. This new video was directed by Shaun Clarke. Clarke also directed the band's amazing interactive video "How Does It Feel to Be in Love?". This new one features two extremely talented dancers, Kirsten Evans & Alex Lantz, with choreography by Viktor Plotnikov.

This just in from MERGE RECORDS

As a special surprise in the spirit of our 25th anniversary reissue series, we have released Old Pain(t): Live at City Gardens, a new Volcano Suns download-only live album. It’s available now in theMerge digital store as well as iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, and Rdio. Priced at $4.99 this is history you can buy into.

Jeff Wiegand of the band offered some background on the release:

"This show was recorded at City Gardens in New Jersey during July of ’86. We had just finished up the final mixing of All-Night Lotus Party in June and went back out on the road for a bit. The original cassette tape was restored by Bob Weston and Jon Williams. Bob tells me the whiz-bang technical term for this is “audio restoration.” Whatever it might be called, they did a great job."

New from FEINTS

Super-psyched to share a new video from FEINTS (pronounced "faints") who tore the roof off the Rock n Roll Rumble this year. Singer Amy Douglas (amazing pipes - also of Sunrise Highway) is remarkably gifted at the rawk. The band have big things in-store for the next 12 months, they say. And I believe them. The whisky-loving band members are: Amy Douglas (Vox, Keys), Dave Baron (All Guitars) Rob Phillips (Bass) Tim Marten (Drums).
