STILL SINGLE

A space for thoughts on music and culture, as written by Doug Mosurock and a select handful of individuals. This is intended as a supplement to our regular feature Still Single, published on Dusted Magazine. Updates will run here more frequently, and may feature writing on music not covered in the column. Compact discs are still not accepted for review -- we have more than enough vinyl and the occasional cassette to worry about.

Our Twitter feed keeps you apprised of reviews as they're published. It's kept locked and private, because with a name like @stillsingle, everyone thinks it's a dating site. Approvals happen whenever they happen.

NEW ADDRESS -- PLEASE SEND MAIL HERE FROM NOW ON
Doug's contact address is as follows:
Doug Mosurock
PO Box 3087
New York, NY 10185-3087

If you were planning on sending vinyl to Dusted, their HQ has moved to Washington, DC. That means that you're delaying your review by directing copies of your release down there. So make sure it goes to the above address.

Dead Luke – Meanwhile … in the Midwest LP (Moon Glyph)

Dude who blew his first shot in the Mystery Artist Subtrend of 2007-08 by making legit boring music (and working on some of the earlier Zola Jesus records) now changes outfits into the lone gunman with a reverb unit. His accessory to this crime is a young woman who plays the tambourine, and together the two of them try to capture a Brian Jonestown Massacre Unplugged sort of thing, all twangy, cut-out Sunset Strip psych and the sort of sleaze that goes along with such a ruse. Pretty much anything that sounds like this these days carries with it an incredibly dishonest, impersonal feel that makes the music very difficult to enjoy on its own merits or any others. Altogether, more like Braindead Luke. (http://www.moonglyph.com)
