My favourite record of 2014 (so far) is Cloud Nothings‘ Here and Nowhere Else. I played it for my 6-year-old daughter Madelyn…and she was not into it as much.
Maybe you are feeling the same way about the new Cloud Nothings. I know I don’t. I AM a big fan.
Go with yourself.

My daughter Madelyn reviews one of her favourite records right now, Arcade Fire’s Reflektor.

Yesterday I raced down to Ditch Records during lunch to pick up the new No Age record, An Object.
I put the long player on while cooking up some dinner. We were sitting around, enjoying our spaghetti and meatballs when the final track came on, “Commerce, Comment, Commerce.” The song features a bit of a drone to close out the record and Madelyn remarked that she did not like the sound. I posted the quip on Facebook because I thought it was funny and BFF Leigh said I should record her for a radio bit. So here we go…. maybe an ongoing segment, maybe not…maybe we’ll leave the album reviews to the pros?
It is her goal to be a pop-star so Jack White, I’ll be sending demos in like 10 years… My hope it that you may develop the world’s first hepta-coloured vinyl single… and then one colour is rainbow, so I don’t even know how many colours that is!
Which record should she review next?
Go with yourself.
