Bitter Fingers Radio Volume 12: Two Festive Fingers
In: Uncategorized
3 Jan 2011After writing up my Festive Ten for this year, I felt that mere Spotify and YouTube playlists weren’t enough to convey just how amazing a year it’s been in music. So, in a first for Bitter Fingers Radio, I’ve recorded a special two-part show playing out in full both mine and Mr. Matthew Sheret’s Festive [...]

28 Nov 2009Yeasayer – Ambling Amp (Pitchfork TV)
I can’t really think of a better way to polish off November on Bitter Fingers than with this new Yeasayer track. Ambling Amp has been available to download for free on their website for a while now, but the video’s only just emerged.
And oh boy, what a video. Mirror-masked riders! [...]
