• Mile Hi-Fidelity playlist - 01.07.09

  It was world premier week on Mile Hi-Fidelity. Last night, we had the pleasure of debuting songs from A Shoreline Dream, Jon Snodgrass, Littles Paia, Park Pourbaix and the Widowers' Mike Marchant, who stopped by the studio long enough to give us insight on his new batch of tunes, which will be unveiled to the world at large this Friday night at the Meadowlark, to regale us with an unbelievable tale about getting arrested and shook down in Mexico, and to get stuck in the elevator. That's right.

The set was a little loose and yet I'm not sure I've seen the band play with such ease and confidence. On this night, the outfit displayed a strong tale

  Jon Snodgrass and Cory Branan have completed work on their split LP/cassette. Notice we didn't mention anything about CD? That's right, this release will not be available on disc. Inexplicably, however, it will be available on cassette. (?) Before you head over to Suburban Home Records to pick up your copy, our friends at the label have made the record available for streaming. Snodgrass, who led Armchair Martian and is the co-frontman of Drag the River, contributes two new songs and two covers (

• Heavy Rotation, our top spins for the week of August 3, 2009

  As music critics, the most common question we get asked (and ask each other, for that matter) is, "What are you listening to?" The pervasiveness of this query is precisely what inspired Heavy Rotation, our latest feature. For the benefit of those who happen to be curious, we've compiled a list of all the things we're listening to this week. Feel free to chime in with picks of your own after the jump.

• Suburban Home announces limited pressing of Drag the River anthology

  ​Drag the River has always been about giving fans the biggest bang for their hard-earned buck. If you ever stumbled into a bar that has a Drag record in the jukebox, for instance, you've probably noticed that if you select the last track on the album, you're treated to the entire album. Genius, right? So it's not hard to believe Suburban Home Records honcho Virgil Dickerson when he says that Jon Snodgrass probably isn't going to be too stoked about Primer, a new limited edition Drag the River
