Deerhunter Month continues at Evil Speakers with 2010’s HALCYON DIGEST, possibly their best regarded album and definitely the slickest. Among the topics of conversation is “Desire Lines,” my favorite indie rock song of the 21st century.

Deerhunter, “Twilight At Carbon Lake” live at All Tomorrow’s Parties, 2013

My favorite use of a Springsteen song in a movie.

The great Philip Seymour Hoffman died 10 years ago today. Thinking about one of the greatest “one scene only” performances of all time.

Hey, it’s Deerhunter Month at Evil Speakers! Join me as we talk about a different album every Monday in July by one of the great indie rock bands of the 21st century.

Jonathan Bernstein’s recent Justin Townes Earle biography is a riveting book about a talented, troubled guy. It sent me down the rabbit hole of his work, which I wrote about this week.

Honestly the Garth Hudson entrance here is probably the single greatest moment in any rock concert film. Especially because it’s reserved for Garth Hudson, supremely unassuming genius.

The first trailer for A COMPLETE UNKNOWN (dir. James Mangold)

The best needle drop by anybody, maybe. Single-handedly made me a lifetime Stones fan.

This clip of Vanilla Fudge playing “Keep Me Hanging On” in 1968 has been in my regular rotation lately. I’m convinced it’s the original “dudes rock!” moment. The purity of the dudes and their rocking is unmatched.

One of the funniest scenes in a TV show ever.

RIP David Johansen. This is rock n roll.

Radiohead covering Cinnamon Girl

Historical footage of Jesus rising from the grave on Easter morning.

What’s the greatest fictional band of all time?

Sweet Jesus.

Thinking about “Box Of Rain” in FREAKS AND GEEKS.

One of the coolest stories ever about a songwriter.

It’s Brown Horse, England’s finest all-American alt-country band. Recommend seeing them!

Tom Petty died six years ago today. I am continually sad about this but this video of Tom explaining how he wrote “The Waiting” makes me feel better.
