how long should i be here

Got a new Beach Fossils tune for ya off one of the upcoming 7″’s that Dustin has planned for the new year to be followed by the way anticipated LP! It’s the deadly Woodsist/Captured Tracks combo that’s sure to hit all the 2010 year end lists on a blog near you. Taking a much different vibe than the hazed memories of “Vacation” and “Daydream”, “Time” invites a look back at shared experiences whether they wish to be remembered or not. The girl that rejected your hand, the job that was lost, that awesome show at the end of summer, the upcoming flight or drive back home for the holidays. We each follow the same paths, progress down the same linearity and share so many similar feelings, yet we refuse to follow the route of becoming another brick in the wall. But where Dustin picks up is that we’re young, and we have and will develop new extensions of time that have not been perceived in the past. Until this is realized, I just gotta say that I’m on team Beach Fossils all the way.

tune of the night

“I’m blessed with everything.
A world to which a man can cling.
So happy at times that I break out in tears.
But in the back of my mind I still have my fears.”

-Brian Wilson

Beach Fossils – Vacation

going full slacker

According to Child Bite at Death By Audio this weekend, “Total Slacker are as cute as buttons,” blending together not only the most bud-heavy of beach-pop jams but the badass appeal of just being in a band and having the best time with each other. Whether they’re tearing apart the stage at Shea Stadium or hot-boxing their spray painted van, Emily, Tucker and Ross are just all-around awesome folk that want to show you how much fun it is to do what you love. After a night at the Cake Shop, we headed back to my apartment with some pals to take part in recreational activities as well as record Total Slacker’s first interview. Video accompaniment coming in the near future. Also of note and something I’ll elaborate more on later, FMLY RCRDS is hosting Total Slacker’s initial demos for free download while cassette duties will be handled by our homies over at Mirror Universe Tapes. More on that in the interview…

Total Slacker – These Condos Don’t Belong

FMLY: Hey slackers, so where are ya’ll from?

Total Slacker: [Emily:] Well, Ross and I are from Santa Fe and Tucker is from Salt Lake City. I came here a few years ago for school and then I stopped going to school…to play in Total Slacker! [Ross:] Aw, is that why? I thought you were just takin’ a break. [Emily:] Ha, yeah, an extended break. You know.

While last night’s show was sweaty, drunk and balls to the wall, floor or against the person in front of you, the talk of the town has been what happened afterwards at Daddy’s between Nathan Williams and Jared from the Black Lips…but I’ll get to that in a bit.
