New video from twee-folk faves Super Desserts. They’ll open for Here We Go Magic at the Wex 3/29.

But in terms of new stuff, here’s what I liked this year, starting with national releases and ending with Cowtown LPs.

1. Strand of Oaks – Pope Killdragon
I didn’t immediately hit repeat when I heard this album, but once I came back to it, I never stopped. Who knew a record with songs about John Belushi (from the perspective of Dan Akroyd), a 12-foot man and JFK could be so engrossing. Devastating, too. If you think Tim Showalter is just another pretty-voiced folkie, the layers of synth and Sabbath-like riffs on “Giant’s Despair” prove otherwise. The best way to get Killdragon digitally or on vinyl is through Strand of Oaks’ Kickstarter page.

2. The Black Keys – Brothers
Ditto Duffy.


3. Anais Mitchell – Hadestown
A folk-rock opera about Orpheus sounds like a terrible idea. Thanks to Mitchell’s clever arrangements & talents like Greg Brown, Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon and Low Anthem’s Ben Knox Miller, it’s a tour de force.

4. Sam Amidon – I See the Sign
Sam Amidon takes old songs and makes them new. Oh, and R. Kelly songs, too. Fans of Nick Drake and Sufjan will dig this. Feb. 18 show at the Wex with Brian Harnetty is icing.

5. Local Natives – Gorilla Manor
No new ground broken, but I’ll take these songs any day over a lot of the big-name, anthemic indies who released albums this year.

6. Deerhunter – Halcyon Digest
People seem to either love or discard Bradford Cox. I love him. Album cover disturbs me.

7. Sufjan Stevens – Age of Adz
I went from disappointed to intrigued to enraptured with this album.

8. Spoon – Transference
I’m still waiting for Spoon to release a bad album.

9. Lost in the Trees – All Alone in an Empty House
Prediction: By this time next year many more people will know the name Ari Picker. He can strip a song down to its bones on one song, then compose a rich orchestral piece the next. Wex show Jan. 30 (more icing).

10. Patty Griffin – Downtown Church
I don’t imagine many Donewaiting readers are into country gospel. (I’ll echo Duffy’s preamble about what makes DW great.) When it’s done this well, I’m a fan. Guests include Buddy Miller and Emmylou Harris.

Mention-worthy:
Justin Townes Earle – Harlem River Blues (underrated b/c of daddy)
Surfer Blood – Astro Coast (kids are all right)
Shearwater – The Golden Archipelago (Meiburg the magnificent)
Mumford & Sons – Sigh No More (It’s in my most-played, so I must like it)
Sun Kil Moon – Admiral Fell Promises (underrated guitarist)
Love Language – Libraries (underrated b/c of …)
Vampire Weekend – Contra (Better than the first)
Kanye West – My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (“That’s why your Winslow”)
Mavis Staples – You are Not Alone (Legend made even better by Tweedy)
Lower Dens – Twin-Hand Movement (Jana Hunter > Devendra Banhart. Much greater.)
Mountain Man – Made the Harbor (Who needs instruments?)

Columbus albums
Like I said, Gibson Bros., but I’d remiss not to mention Columbus Discount Records‘ two other reissues I loved: Ron House’s Blind Boy in the Back Seat and Nudge Squidfish’s 20,000 Leagues Under Nashville. I liked some EPs, too (Way Yes, Spruce Campbells’ 1st) and a 7″ (TNV’s “No Room to Live”) or two, but I’m sticking with albums here. As usual, I’ll also clarify that I’m not separating these lists because these are somehow inferior or can’t compete with national releases. I just like doing it this way.

1. Super Desserts – Twee as Folk
Can’t say much more about this band and album that I haven’t already said. This is the Desserts at the top of their game.

2. The Black Swans – Words are Stupid
One way the Black Swans have honored the memory of violinist Noel Sayre is to still include him on this album, a meditation of sorts on how language fails us. It’s light, it’s dark, it’s great.

3. Time and Temperature – Cream of the Low Tide
I don’t know if this is an EP or an album, so I’ll say it’s an album. At long last. More from Val Glenn, please.

4. Ghost Shirt – Daniel
I don’t think you want to hear me talk about this band anymore, either. This record was a pleasant, late-fall surprise.

5. Micah Schnabel – When the Stage Lights Go Dim
It makes sense that the songs of the Two Cow Garage front man hold up with just an acoustic guitar.

6. Andrew Graham & Swarming Branch – Andrew Graham’s Good Word
I’m still surprised by how little press this Mexican Summer release got. “Take it Easy on Kathy, at Least she Can Dance” is one of my favorite Columbus songs released this year.

7. Nick Tolford & Company – Extraordinary Love
Soul! At least go download “End of the Night.”

8. The Kyle Sowashes – Nobody
“I threw up at Tee-Jaye’s on Wednesday night/ Pale-faced and clammy I was something of a sight/ We played a show at some basement bar/ And while they couldn’t pay us/ They gave us PBR/ So I took it as a challenge/ I tried to drink them all/ Each one went down better than the last as I recall/ And I’d forgotten to eat dinner/ I realized too late/ I got double dragon before the waitress brought my plate.” Long live Kyle Sowash.

9. Deathly Fighter – Completely Dusted
I remember seeing Deathly Fighter awhile back and being bored. It’s not usually my thing. But this album keeps me coming back. I think I like it for the same reasons I like the XX and Burial. Not that DF sounds anything like those two, but there’s something about a record that’s simultaneously chill and pulsing…

10. Earwig – Gibson Under Mountain
Didn’t get to this one for awhile, but now find myself humming these songs all the time.

Mention-worthy:
Phantods – Creature (need to spend more time with this)
Bookmobile – The New Patriot (bittersweet)
Two Cow Garage – Sweet Saint Me (consistency)

MP3: Margot and the Nuclear So & So’s – Will You Love Me Forever (Donewaiting Live at Electraplay)

You’ll see from these live sessions at Electraplay that Margot and the Nuclear So & So’s are all about guitars now. Gone are the strings, horns, triangles, various hand percussion, etc. (along with some of the members who played them). Even Columbus’s Erik Kang, who plays violin in Super Desserts, played only guitar on Margot’s new album, Buzzard. This is a leaner, and sometimes meaner, Margot. See and hear for yourself. More videos below.

“New York City Hotel Blues”

James “Jimi” Payne

For the past three years I have lived in the Monster House, a DIY punk house in Columbus, Ohio. I co-founded the Monster House with Pat Crann, Austin Eilbeck, Ryan Eilbeck, Jeff Love, Kristina Markey, Matt O’Conke, Joe Scarbro, Dylan Taylor-Lehman, and Nick Wong. A few weeks ago the last three original roommates – besides me – left. And, as of this week, I’m moving out as well. A group of our friends still living at the Monster plan to continue hosting shows and events. On October 8th, Apache Dropout, Landlord, Reverse The Curse, and Cody Troyan are performing there.

After “the jump” is a list of every performer who occasioned the “stage” at the Monster House in the last three years. 400 different performers have played over 150 shows booked by over 20 promoters. The list is representative of the Columbus punk scene as well as the national DIY touring circuit from 2007-10.

More than 30 people paid rent at the house during this time span.

MP3: Wicker Chair

2010 is turning out to be the year of the Super Desserts as Friday sees the boys and girls releasing their second album of the year, Twee As Folk. The new album returns to the path traveled by 2009 ‘s Barefoot in the Disenchanted Forest, with new handmade CD packaging in 7″ vinyl single size and a secret tale to be told by the entire package. Long song titles galore and another batch of pop ditties, this time with more hand-clapped BEATS. The release party is tonight at Wholly Craft at 7, featuring an opening set from none other than Jeff Fernengel.

Video for “Give Your Mom a Call”

Rebirth motherfucker! Yeah, here we go again. A TON of cool shit has happened since we last got together in this official capacity and I’m not gonna tell you anything about it! I will tell you that Duffy made me take some online journalism and creative writing and photography courses while I was on hiatus and as you’re about to see it did absolutely no good!

I will also tell you I picked a good week to decide to start doing this crap again. Super Desserts, Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s, Guinea Worms, Warpaint, Don B, and of course, Mike O! If you are at all inclined to listen to a bitter, old, hateful, cynical and all around super cool and totally nice dude’s rant about, you know, stuff, you know what to do!

Pictured: Super Desserts@Circus

Thursday night found me at the venue formerly know as High Five, currently known as Circus for Super Desserts and Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s. Also some other band played. They seemed more suited for Frog, Bear and Wild Boar but whatever. Also I forget their name. Enough about the band that played in the middle. Let’s focus our attention on Super Desserts. Twee as Folk! (their words not mine unfortunately) If you are yet to see this gang, looks like you need to revise your to do lists. These guys are a venerable who’s who of Columbus music. Justin from Terribly Empty Pockets, Tyler from Couch Forts, Eve from Bird and Flower, Eric from Margot, Bobby from the local PBR rep, Ianna from Obviouslies, and likely others I’m leaving out.

Attttttttttttt any rate, my point is this band is fun as fuck and there are like 17 people on stage at any given time keeping it together. They have also been building blog buzz thanks in part to their super fun music videos that have been making the rounds on the web. Regardless of the type of music you prefer, these dudes are definitely worth going out for. If you don’t see this band you hate fun! Go see them on Friday at the Summit.

Pictured: Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s@Circus

O.K. so I’m not super hip to Margot, but I am hip to the fact that Eric Kang is from Columbus and used to be in Tiara. I’ve listened to a record or 2 and this is a band I’m more down to check out live than I am to jam it in my car on the way to work whatever that means. (dont’ have that kind of time to waste!) I went out to see Margot like 5 years ago at Skully’s and they basically St. Vincented on the show. All kidding aside (for now) Richard and company put on a really good show and I’m totally digging the pared down lineup and looking forward to hearing the new record. O.K. now more “kidding”. I mean I guess I’m old and out of touch, but I didn’t realize how much the kids like Margot, and these kids make poor fashion choices, get too drunk and are all around annoying but whatever, good set would see again.

O.k.,o.k. on Friday night Columbus weirdos Guinea Worms had a record release show for their double lp, “Sorcerers of Madness”, released on internationally known, locally respected label CDR. I attended the aforementioned show and admittedly, details of the evening are a bit foggy.

Pictured: The Mahoneys@Bourbon Street

The Mahoneys played first they are comprised of 2 of The Frustrations and play like 60-90 sec songs that are jokey but aren’t jokey. I dunno, I dug them, thought they were fun. I’m pretty sure The Frustrations followed, enjoyed them enough, didn’t pay super close attention. Par for the course Bourbon Street punk rock.

Pictured: The Unholy Two@Bourbon Street

The Unholy Two played next and I’m pretty sure I heard an actual song somewhere in the set! That really is them in the above picture and if you look reallll hard that is THE Mike O filling in for Bo Davis on drums. Antagonistic, loud, abrasive..you know the story, either this band is for you or it isn’t. Gnomesayin?

Pictured: Guinea Worms@Bourbon Street

I’m not even gonna front, I had consumed a fair amount of libations by the time Guinea Worms started and well, you know how that goes. IF YOU CONSIDER YOURSELF A FAN OF COLUMBUS MUSIC YOU MUST SEE THIS BAND!!!! I would also like to mention that Extreme Weiners has a delicious philly cheesesteak. Don’t sleep on this sandwich, you have until Tuesday!

You know how sometimes you see a band’s name here and there and then you keep seeing it over and over again? Sometimes that kind of thing makes me less inclined to check out a band. This was basically the case with Warpaint and after seeing them live, it definitely makes me reconsider this course of action. Oh man, they were super fucking cool and easy on the eyes to boot!

Pictured: The Jellyhearts@Summit

The Jellyhearts opened. As I approached the venue, from what I could here outside, I thought Warpaint had already started because I don’t remember The Jellyhearts not sucking! Seriously though, I remember them sounding like Cheater Slicks on a bad night or something and I guess they’ve been practicing and it was apparent. Seriously though, drummer Lauren is also in rosehips and some other band I can’t for the life of me think of the name of. She’s like the Mike O of girl drummers! Whatever, looks like there’s good things to come from these girls.

Pictured: Warpaint@Summit

So yeah, let’s talk about Warpaint. Totally rad for starters. I gave their EP a listen for the first time on Saturday morning and it has pretty much been on repeat ever since. No shit. I guess some actress chick used to play drums for them and the singer chick used to date former Red Hot Chili John Fruciante.(Fruciante’s solo stuff rules)Whatever, show was totally rad, these girls can jam. For some reason there were like 15 photographers at this show and it was like they had never seen pretty girls play instruments or some shit. I mean, I get it, Warpaint is quite photogenic, but for fuck’s sake, these cats were incessantly taking flash photos for literally the WHOLE SHOW. Super fucking obnoxious jesus christ. Our girl Rachael Barbash was there not using a flash, if you haven’t already check out here pics of the show here. I really can’t reiterate enough how cool the set was, and if you’re going to SXSW you have multiple opportunities to catch Warpaint. Don’t fuck it up!

Pictured: Warpaint and Don B@Summit

The legendary Don B made an appearance and performed an A capella version of Batman with the singer chick. She was very obliging and the reason it was A capella was because the stage was already torn down. Don B likes what he likes, myself not being one of them. I guess I should buy him a screwdriver and then maybe we can be friends.

I’m done for now. Tune in next week for Scion Rockfest “coverage”!!!!

MP3: Yr Heart

The Super Desserts are set to release their new record Banjo Forever this Sunday (Jan. 24) at Used Kids Records. In a way, this is a new old record, as many tracks come from previously released material that have been remixed with added instrumentation. Singer/guitarist Bobby Miller explains: “Really it’s just the culmination of a plan we had from day one. We set out to record as many songs as we could in a two-year span, releasing them in DIY fashion along the way. Then, we took our favorites and packaged them with the strongest of our “new” songs to create this record.” Whether you’re new to their music or not, their efforts don’t seem to be in vain as they’ve managed to channel all of their energy into a highly enjoyable album.

This quirky gaggle of artists call on a variety of instruments (as with the first album, Barefoot in the Disenchanted Forest) that seem to tell stories of the mishaps of seeing life through melodic, rose-colored glasses. In fact, their airy way of tale-telling can refresh your inner child and leave you whistling, like in the track “Gotta Lotta Sun.” While I’m left wanting to hear more new material, I’ll be playing outstanding tracks such as the Sondre Lerche-like tune “Falling Out of Fashion,” the charming “Yr Heart” and the tragically fun “I Only Love You Because You Can Play Guitar” on repeat for a while.

On Sunday you’ll be able to purchase your own vinyl copy as well as catch an in-store performance from both Saintseneca and Super Desserts.

MP3: Vetiver – Everyday

We’ve mentioned the Ohio Winter Folk Festival a few times in the past couple weeks. With Sub Pop’s Vetiver and Columbus bands like the Black Swans, Super Desserts and Moon High, plus Athens’ Adam Torres (ex-Southeast Engine), it promises to be a pretty great show. Before Saturday’s show at the historic Stuart’s Opera House in Nelsonville, Ohio, there’s also a Music Swap Meet and DIY Art Fair (1 pm).

We’ve got a pair to tickets to give away, too. Send an e-mail to contestdonewaiting@gmail.com with the subject WINTER FOLK FESTIVAL. A winner will be chosen on Friday. You can also buy tickets here ($12 in advance, $15 at the door).
