Toronto Indie-Folkers Rock Plaza Central just signed to Yep Roc Records, and will release Are We Not Horses April 17th. Here’s a conversation we recently overhead:
Guy A: Could these guys rip off Neutral Milk Hotel a littler harder? I mean, it may be physically impossible, but maybe they could try. Fuck, Jeff Magnum should sue these nerds.
Guy B: Really? I’ve never heard of them.
Guy A: Listen to Neutral Milk Hotel when you least feel like it, and you’ve heard them.

Also, tour dates with The Dears on Ace Fu.

Directer Craig Brewer (Hustle & Flow) is brewin’ up a drama/romance called Black Snake Moan starring Samuel L. Jackson and Christina Ricci. According to IMDB, Jackson plays a God-fearing bluesman who has the love for a wild young woman. He looks everywhere for love but never quite finds it despite everything being way hotter down in the south and all. Check out the trailer on MySpace.
The soundtrack includes bluesy songs by The Black Keys, RL Burnside and many by Samuel L. Jackson. Here’s one now!
Here’s what Merge Records have to say about Neon Bible to be released on March 6th:
Neon Bible is full of both half-assed punk rock mistakes and meticulously orchestrated woodwinds. Processed strings and mandolin. Quiet rumbles and loud rumbles. But mostly just eleven songs that the band thinks are really good!
