With my newfound interest in the blogosphere I re-discovered Carrie Brownstein's now defunct Monitor Mix for the first time (I was peripherally aware of it, but had never read it). In one of her greatest hits/posts, Carrie moderated a panel discussion with a group of independent label heads. In this conversation it was revealed that many labels/artists were including vouchers for a free mp3 download within the packaging of new LPs (vinyl); this struck me as I had recently introduced my oldest son Oscar to Cutler's New Haven's record shop.
Wild Flag's self-titled debut album is the second record I have purchased in as many months (recently replaced the needle on my turntable). At first listen the album rocks! And WF lives up to the label of "supergroup;" however, I believe I will have to listen to it a few more times before I am able to write the review a great piece of art such as this deserves.
