 JULY FEATURES
 on our listening posts-

Amiina *Kurr
You may know of Amiina from their association with another Icelandic band- Sigur Ros. The girls started working with Sigur Ros in the mid 90's, resulting in their first shows with the band in 1999. Amiina has since become the string players for all of Sigur Ros' subsequent tours and records.

Various Artists*Instant Karma: The Campaign To Save Darfur
Fight horriffic human rights abuses. Proceeds from the purchase of this cd go to Amnesty International.

Ryan Adams *Easy Tiger
Whiskeytown frontman and solo artist, Ryan Adams has been helping damaged lovers fill breakup/makeup mix tapes for more than a decade. The punk troubadour's new album, Easy Tiger - has us thinking Adams may finally transcend his perpetual 'next big thing' status.

Queens of the Stone Age *Era Vulgaris
"Era Vulgaris is Homme's fifth Queens album, and like the others it's intricately crafted, meticulously polished, and ruthlessly efficient in its pursuit of depraved rock thrills. -Four Stars", Rolling Stone

The Polyphonic Spree* The Fragile Army
"Probably the Poly's best and deepest album yet!" -- David Bowie;
"Positively exhilarating to behold" --Pitchfork;

 

 *NEW MUSIC NOW* AT VINYLFEVERTAMPA.COM
 THIS WEEK'S FEATURE: CHEMICAL BROTHERS

After five albums, we know what to expect from a CHEMICAL BROTHERS record and Tom Rowlands and Ed Simons know how best to make them. It's the collaborations that often get the attention (Noel Gallagher, Bernard Sumner, Q-Tip) and they continue the tradition on WE ARE THE NIGHT with members of Pharcyde, Klaxons, and Midlake, as well as a couple of future stars. But it's the months of experimentation beforehand that creates the basis of each new record, and has kept the sound fresh. Hear a few tracks in our pop-up jukebox at vinylfevertampa .com.
