NICK KRGOVICH i can't bring myself to smile

.

a song later re-recorded with opulent arrangement and less reverb on the GIGI-album .

i guess everything about this musician has been said in the older posts.

thanks, Dave, for insisting on P:ANO.


listen.

buy!

P:ANO pure evil

.
it took me four years to get addicted to them.

the person that sold me that 7", L., who's friends with the people who released it (those people are also friends of, surprise, Dave), mentioned that the silkscreened covers were bleached in the sun.

Dave once posted here a whole live-set-recording he made in 2005 in Vancouver.
essential, of course.


oh, and as christmas is getting closer, here is some amazing older Julia & Nick side-project-stuff:



listen.


.

NO KIDS prisoner of desire

.
heroes.

P:ANO-members reinventing white arhhennbee.

their last year album is already a classic. (on that one, Tomlab Records deserves recognition.)

the only band i know that, in my humble opinion, really deserved the grant they got from the federal canadian government.

never played it at parties without being asked about it by charming people.

a bit too nerdy on stage, i have to admit.
next time they come to your town , bring your winds and share the stage with them - i'm quite sure they would appreciate.

did i mention they're friends and active collaborators of PHIL ELVERUM?





listen.

and please, please, listen to this! please.

buy as long as you can!

.

P:ANO covered wagons

.

what can i say? pure pop-mastery.
Nick Krgovich does only have himself as a reference.

this 7" is so diverse and rich that every single track would deserve it on this blog. on every blog. in everyone's ears.
his new band is called NO KIDS, and gets further in the de-limitation of pop music.

listen.

buy!
