1. "Yeah, yeah. Holocene. Holocene is a bar in Portland, Oregon, but it’s also the name of a geologic era, an epoch if you will. It’s a good example of how all the songs are all meant to come together as this idea that places are times and people are places and times are… people? [Laughs.] They can all be different and the same at the same time. Most of our lives feel like these epochs. That’s kind of what that song’s about. “Once I knew I was not magnificent.” Our lives feel like these epochs, but really we are dust in the wind. But I think there’s a significance in that insignificance that I was trying to look at in that song."
  2. No Strings Attached

    I just watched No Strings Attached with Natalie Portman & Ashton Kutcher.

    He makes her a “period” mix cd for her to listen to at that time of the month. 

    “Bleeding Love” comes on. How freaking romantic. 

    I want one. But I don’t have an Ashton so I’ll have to make it for myself.

    Whatever, it’ll be better that way anyways. 

  3. omg.

    All-percussion cover of Bon Iver’s “Holocene.” Just watch. Watch & melt.

    Everyone always gets their panties in a bunch over The Black Keys’ “Lonely Boy.” But have you heard “Everlasting Light” ??????? 

    The song is so simple & unassuming, but heavy & meaningful at the same time.




    How does that even happen?

    I found a liquid cure for my landlocked blues-

    Sometimes after a bad week & you feel worthless, you have no choice but to revisit old school Bright Eyes & blast the softness on your speakers when your roommates aren’t around & drink some moscato & turn in early with Conor.




    -If you walk away i’ll walk away. First tell me which road you will take; I don’t wanna risk our paths crossing someday, so you walk that way, I’ll walk this way.

    “Airplanes”

    Local Natives sound like Fleet Foxes.

    Except less annoying. Am I right? 

    I’m right.
