The Dodos Spill The Beans To Nylon Magazine

Here's a snippet from this month's article: *He plucks like an old-timer, but don’t be fooled—despite his bullish, on-the-bayou finger-picking, Dodos guitarist Meric Long considers himself a relative newcomer to his craft. Long had almost eight years of guitar under his belt when he opened for bluesman Paul Curreri in L.A., but the experience brought him straight back to square one. “I had never seen anybody play like that,” he remembers.*

Patrick Wolf Shreds His Nylon

The Music Slut strongly recommends checking out the July issue of Nylon magazine for a great Q&A with the one and only, Patrick Wolf. Topics discussed range from his infamous MisShapes appearance, his unofficial apology to the lover whom influenced The Magic Position, and the total number of instruments he actually can play (any guesses?). In the meantime, check out the following exclusive photo from P. Wolf's Nylon visit. J'adore, PW.

Icelandic pop-fun!

Well, according to our site stats and whatnot, it appears that lots and lots of you are sluts for Nylon, the foxy quartet of pop princesses hailing from Iceland, and who we featured a couple of weeks back when I went to see them in all their cheesy majesty. So, just because I'm so nice, here's a couple of their new English language tracks... (since it's Friday, and I know you all want to head off dancing to something good tonight...!)
