From our Open Blog: Childe



Some may say that by the sheer sound of their music, Brooklyn based trio - CHILDE - was born out of the side of a dragon’s fiery head or perhaps the hairy gut of a bearded gypsy. But reality has proven that the strangely heroic and poetic rock of this new band stems from the wit and spit of their hard work. CHILDE has sprouted a surprising new sound – something earth shattering and soul satisfying – a solid sense of proportion and passion amidst the vast vagueness of music in our culturally over-saturated contemporanea. A fiery blend of stoned-out punk rock and psychadelia with a pop sensibility to make any music lover feel they are on the edge of a great vastness with no strings attached. - (as posted in The Deli's Open Blog - post your band's entries, videos, and Mp3s here).

Beautiful new video by Paul and the Patients - Live at Union Hall on 02.03

Please update your Flash Player



Gravity is a rare quality in rock music nowadays - the gravity you find in those intense songs from the 60s and 70s, from the Doors to John Lennon, from David Bowie to Syd Barret. Brooklyn's Paul and the Patients own that trait, not only in their songwriting, but also in their looks - and we dig it. This new video develops a simple idea in a gorgeous way, and definitely enhances the intensity of the song (called "Complaint 15), that really sounds like a classic to our ears.

The Vandelles release new CD in the UK + play Mercury

The Vandelles (who placed 22nd on our Best of NYC 2009 Poll) have just release a new self titled EP in the UK under SVC Records. The band's sound (quite literally) reverberates with British noise pop influences reminiscent of Jesus and Mary Chain with an added blues, surf and... vampire edge ("vampire"? Is that a new genre? - we hear you ask. Yeah maybe... you know when the vocals sound like they are coming from... hell or something?). Don't miss them tonight (01.22) opening for Serena Maneesh at Mercury Lounge.
