September 3rd, 2010 at 11:19 am by Belle and Sebastian
TV SHOW
Today (3rd Sep) sees the launch of the first in a series of televisual transmissions of varying sizes and shapes from us to mark the impending release of our album, Belle and Sebastian Write About Love.
Available to view on the widget below, the first episode is a fully realised, half-hour mix of music, chat and revealing (and not so revealing) insights filmed in Glasgow over the last few weeks.
Presented by Dougie Anderson and produced by Forest of Black, it features performances of two of the songs from the album: “I Want The World To Stop” and “I Didn’t See It Coming”
As well as the performances, the show offers the chance to see us as both questioners (Stuart and Chris discuss DIY strategies with various Glasgow bands) and questioned (by fans in the studio). It sees us faced with the harsh realities of the changes in the music business since we last made a record but grappling with solutions and offering some insight into the processes involved in making the record.
In addition, the soundtrack also includes a mixture of snippets of B&S music (some previously heard, some not) set against a backdrop of Glasgow in it’s full autumnal glory. Other visuals come in the form of some of the photographs and videos submitted by you as part of the Write About Love competition.
Twitter / Write About Love
Aside from the songs in the TV show, we are releasing “Write About Love” as lead track /single.
It will initially be officially available from our website from the 7th of September for a very limited period to download – but we want to let one of our twitter followers have the track for themselves – ahead of it being more widely available on iTunes and the like. It’s official digital release date in the USA is 7th September (iTunes Only) and in the UK not until the 25th October.
We will mail an mp3 of the song to a randomly selected follower on Monday (6th) and they will be the only person outside the band and those closest to them to hear/ own a digital copy of the song for 24 hours. It will be the winner’s choice what to do with it ahead of release. They can keep it to themselves in the knowledge that no-one else has it; share it with their friends; hold a listening party at their home or they could let the world either hear it or hear all about it online (and see if we get upset in the process!) – the choice is entirely theirs. . . .
To put yourself in the frame to receive your own copy of “Write About Love” on Monday, here’s what you have to do:
If you haven’t already done so, sign up to follow us on twitter @bellesglasgow and then post one 140 character message using the hashtag #writeaboutlove. The content of the message is entirely up to you: it could be to share the TV show with your followers, or be more generally about the band or the album – it is up to you.
As well as mailing the track to the winner immediately, the winner will also receive a finished copy of the album on vinyl and CD before its release and some other assorted B&S goodness delivered to their home.
Ever wanted to go to a TV taping? One where Pavement is playing? Stick around to try and meet the band? Go backstage? Watch soundcheck? Eat their food? Talk fantasy sports with Malkmus?
Ever wanted to, you know, get your lazy ass off the couch and JOIN PAVEMENT? Then do it, goofball. Imagine the Twitter potential!
Pavement are performing on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon on September 23 – and YOU can play guitar with them on stage! Just submit a video of you playing a Pavement song on guitar (apologies to bass players and drummers everywhere), the band will whittle it down, and then, as with all good things, the public decides. Details here:
Mark it down now, Angelinos… Friday September 24 at 7pm Glasser will be playing a very special free show at Amoeba Hollywood to celebrate the release of her mind-bendingly fantastic debut Ring.
This is a really special show for us- Amoeba are seriously stepping out by doing an in-store for such a new artist and we hope you can share their enthusiasm by joining us at this show. It’ll be your only chance to catch Glasser in Los Angeles until close to the end of the year!
Friday, September 24

Next week we are celebrating the new Interpol record with parties across the country!

But only two of you. Contest details are here, but the gist of it is pretty simple. Our friends at eMusic are giving away two tickets to The Lost Weekend at The Palms, plus they’re springing for flights and hotel rooms. Gambling losses and legal fees are YOUR problem!
I know we keep promising more hard info about the actual event, and guess what…I’m doing it again. Next week we’ll be confirming 4 additional bands, as well as providing further details about the weekend’s schedule. Your patience is deeply appreciated, and if you have further questions, by all means, send ‘em to 21@matadorrecords.com
This week Magic Kids released their record, played a symphony accompanied show for 500 of their hometown friends and fans, and left for a week-long instore tour. But the news doesn’t stop here. Happy to share this new video for “Superball” directed by Jack Ferry. Evokes some simple classic vids, faces, instruments, soft-focus lights…eternally into it.
Order Magic Kids “Memphis” HERE (and get an instant mp3 download of the album)
Tonight’s Magic Kids show at the Levitt Bandshell was really really special. Thank you to the hundreds of people that came out, the Memphis Youth Symphony who helped realize the ambition of the band’s arrangements, Goner Records for selling (and selling out of) the album, and of course Magic Kids. The city of Memphis is truly a strange and wonderful place and I can’t think of a more strange and wonderful tribute than tonight. Really bowled over.
Also really excited about the response people have been having to the record. Reviews are trickling in little by little but so far so good. Prefix assigned it one of the top 3 scores they’ve given any record so far this year. Thank you. A few nice selections below….
PREFIX- “A truly ineffable pop album. The Magic Kids are going at your heart with every melodic tool in their arsenal — shouts and synths, strings and sugary production — all in an effort to make your summer (or fall, or winter, or old age) that much better.”
Washington Post- “more than a simple exercise in retro charm … a fully realized and immaculately executed pop vision.”
One Thirty BPM- “Memphis is a little record that sounds massive ….Memphis is a truly lovely album, one that can transport even the most cynical of grizzled old folks back to the glory days of their youth, and a very promising start to a band’s career.”
Lincoln Journal Star- “”Magic Kids have created some magical, gorgeous classic pop here, one of the most pleasant and engaging surprises I’ve heard in months.”
Magic Kids’ pop-odyssey MEMPHIS hits the streets today. We’re celebrating the occasion on a few fronts. For those of you all over the world, we pressed up a very limited edition surprise version of the album on Cassette. It’s limited to 250 copies to be sold at a few future shows, but for the time being, you can purchase the tape (along with CD/LP) until it runs out on the True Panther and Matador stores. Get an instant mp3 download of the record with order as well.
For those of you in Memphis, the band are celebrating the album’s release with a really special one-time performance alongside the Memphis Youth Symphony. Memphis is flipping out about the event, a benefit for MYS and a special way for the band to capture the more baroque elements of the record in a way that’s difficult to on the road. You can read about it here, here and here. Supposedly the Levitt Shell is where Elvis played some of his first shows. YES!
For those of you in the rest of the country, the band are embarking on basically a 3-month world tour that starts out with a tour of Southern independent record stores, TOMORROW. Can’t stop wont stop.

We love “Amplified“, ABC News’s online music show with World News Sunday anchor Dan Harris. Smart, candid interviews with good bands, juiced up with lotsa good music and video. Dan delayed his current Iraq trip (apparently Iraqis say “hello” – in English – to mean “goodbye” – and no one knows why) to yap with AC Newman and Kathryn Calder at Lollapalooza. There are at least two things that even I didn’t know in this interview.
If you’re not able to catch Shearwater at this year’s Austin City Limits Festival, fear not! The band will be back on the road this November playing a cross-country tour with Damien Jurado. Tickets are now on-sale.
On Friday, Ted Leo checked in with a lengthy, illuminating instant-classic of a blog post. In it, our fearless leader looked back on the past, evaluated his present and pondered an evolving future…which, he revealed, would include the second Lookout Records alumni foray into the theeee-a-thah.
Director Tom Scharpling and co outdid themselves, to be sure.
Ted Leo and The Pharmacists’ new album The Brutalist Bricks is available for purchase here.

October 15, 2010 Girls will be playing their biggest show yet in San Francisco- at the legendary Fillmore. Growing up in SF it sometimes seemed the closest a local band could get to the Fillmore’s stage was a matinee show of The Other Ones (they are from Marin anyways!) so we couldn’t be more excited for this. Show them some love San Francisco!

It’s with considerable excitement that we’re able to reveal the addition of the Brighton trio Esben and the Witch to the Matador roster. Our first UK based signing in over 6 years, a pair of the band’s recordings — the self released ’33′ and the Too Pure Singles Club-issued 7″, “Lucia, at the Precipice” (the latter already trading for excessive sums on eBay) generated no small amount of global curiosity (not the least of which coming from our offices). Hailed by The Quietus for their “opulent mixture of brooding electronics, crackling guitars and mythological rhetoric”, though Esben and the Witch’s early work is equally brooding and beautiful, we’re pretty confident Rachel, Daniel and Thomas had only skimmed the surface of what they’re capable of. Their debut Matador EP, the limited 12″, ‘Marching Song’, is scheduled for release on October 11th (October 12 in North America), augmented by two new songs, ‘Done Because We Are Too Menny’ and ‘Souvenirs’. The band’s first full length album is tentatively scheduled for release in early 2011.
The accompanying video for ‘Marching Song’ was directed by David Procter and Peter King from the The Agenda Collective.
Esben and the Witch will make their US debut this September touring in support of Mercury Prize nominees Foals along with participating in Matador At 21 : The Lost Weekend in Las Vegas. A subsequent UK tour will begin in November.

Glasser’s Ring is arriving in our hands September 28th but for now, here is the first taste of Ring entitled “Home”. The song remains in line with the Glasser we’ve heard before, eclectic and beat-driven with instrumental melodies often driven by Cameron’s own voice. But there is a depth to both the arrangement and recording which somehow makes the song simultaneously intimate and explosive.
(because we can never enough of photos that show Kurt tuning. pic taken from C89′s flicker page)
Following the recent release of the ‘Square Shells’ 12″ / digital EP and subsequent recording in NYC with John Agnello, Kurt Vile (accompanied by the Violators on all dates) will be hitting the road this Autumn for dates with San Diego quartet The Soft Pack.

Next Tuesday August 24th, to celebrate the release of Magic Kids’ debut album Memphis, the band will perform selections from the album live with the Memphis Youth Symphony at the legendary Levitt Shell in, you guessed it, Memphis. We’re told Elvis played his first show at the Levitt Shell (but we can’t remember who told us).
This is Memphis the way it was meant to be heard (and you can hear it how it actually sounds at the band’s MySpace where the album is streaming).
Admission to the concert is $5, all of which goes directly to the Memphis Youth Symphony Program. Doors are at 6:30, and the show starts at 7:30.
We’ll be announcing a couple of additions to the lineup for Oct. 1-3 very soon. In the meantime, however, the above photograph of Matador’s Chris Lombardi, shown basking in the Palms’ Hardwood Suite, provides just a hint of what’s in store for those lucky enough to attend this sold-out event. Not shown : Tim Donaghy.
Congrats to our our London-based label manager Natalie Judge, on being named one of Billboard Magazine’s “30 Under 30″. Said list “recognizes rising young executives who are driving our business forward with their artistic and business vision”, and along with recognizes Natalie’s work on behalf of Sonic Youth and Fucked Up, Billboard adds, somewhat ominously, that said list included “Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, then 23, in 2007.” While this might not mean we’re 3 years away from a David Fincher movie about Judge being sued by half the universe (though if we are, I’d like to be played by Fred “The Hammer” Williamson), it does point to the rarefied nature of said acknowledgment. This sort of thing doesn’t happen to the people we like and respect nearly often enough, so an occasion like this, we’ll raise a glass in Natalie’s honor and consider ourselves very lucky she’s making stuff happen for us instead of someone else.
We got together last week with a few gallant lads and lassies, and we recorded the first part of the B&S TV show that we’ve been hinting at. Here’s a clip to get you in the mood. The song is from the new record, and it’s called “I Want The World To Stop”
We had a really nice day that day, thanks to everyone who travelled a variety of distances to be there! London, Manchester, Newcastle, etc, it was a good effort.
And while I’m at it, here’s a look at the real cover of “Belle And Sebastian Write About Love”. Some websites got hold of the wrong end of the stick last week (perhaps not suprisingly), but no harm done!
Hey New York, you’re formally invited to celebrate the release of Magic Kids‘ debut album ‘Memphis‘ on August 26 at Stanton Public (17 Stanton St). We’ll be celebrating the album’s release (it comes out 8/24) with our friends at The Fader with complimentary food and beverages. We’ll also be giving away cassette tapes of the album to a few lucky winners!
The 9.28.10 release of Glasser‘s debut album Ring is drawing closer! Glasser put together a full band and will be hitting the road a lot this fall. She’s starting it out this Friday at Glasslands, and afterwards touring the midwest and East Coast with Gayngs! Also, look above…that’s the upcoming cover of FADER. AAAH! It’s real, not one of those novelty photobooth fake covers you make with your family to at amusement parks. ITS REALLY HAPPENING!
FRIDAY 8/13 @ Glasslands. Glasser w/How To Dress Well, Golden Filter, and Soars. Glasser is on at around 10pm
Oct 4 Brooklyn, NY @ The Music Hall of Williamsburg
Oct 5 Washington, DC @ Black Cat
Oct 7 Nashville, TN @ Mercy Lounge
FADER is hitting newsstands in a couple of weeks. We’re honored and stoked that they share our love for Glasser, and by putting her on the cover seem to share the sentiment that Ring is going to end up being a special record for a whole lot of people.

Last month, an audience of lucky Austinites was witness to a live performance of favorites both new and old by Shearwater in the Austin City Limits studio, part of the “KUT Live” series sponsored by, you guessed it, Austin’s own KUT. Those both in and out of Austin who missed out at the time can hear the performance when KUT broadcasts it tonight at 9:00PM EDT/8:00PM CDT. KUT is located at 90.5 on your Austin radio dial, and if this whole Internet thing has caught your fancy then you can also listen online in a variety of ways. Sadly, you will have to just imagine the snazzy Texas Capitol Building backdrop, as seen above.
