Under The Gun Review sent staff writer, Drew Caruso, to the Great Scott in Allston, MA on April, 17 to experience S.Carey with support from White Hinterland and Words Like Earth.

REVIEW: S. Carey – ‘Range of Light’

Artist: S. Carey Album: Range of Light Genre: Indie Rock Label: Jagjaguwar I love being from New England. In fact, I live for it.

Watch Justin Vernon And The Roots Perform On ‘Fallon’

Justin Vernon and The Roots might not seem like an obvious combination at first, but don’t let appearances fool you. The man behind Bon Iver is a self-professed hip hop fan and even recorded a yet-to-be-released collaboration with rapper Astronautalis. With that in mind, it’s not so strange to see Vernon teaming up with one […]

Songs For The Season: Winter Playlist

The winter season, at times, seems to consist of a love hate relationship. Being from Boston, I know many fellow Bostonians who rue away the long, tired, and cold, New England season, dreaming of palm trees and open shores. But, there is something ultimately rewarding about making it through the courses of the cold. A […]

Bon Iver Will Return, According To… Bon Iver

In the wake of some over zealous blogs posting that Bon Iver was most likely over (we ourselves posted saying Justin Vernon was “unsure”), his label has posted that Bon Iver will return and pointed at several interviews pointing out the plan has always been for a long hiatus. From Jagjaguwar, both Bon Iver and […]

In an interview with Triple J (as sourced by NME), Bon Iver‘s Justin Vernon suggested he was nowhere near the headspace needed to write another Bon Iver record, and was unsure if he ever would be. The full quote is as […]

Experimental pop group Volcano Choir, led by Bon Iver frontman Justin Vernon, have just put out their second single, “Comrade,” which you can listen to after the jump. “Comrade” is off their upcoming album, Repave, due September 3 in the US via Jagjaguwar. With only eight tracks total, it looks like it will either be short and to the point […]

WATCH: Volcano Choir – “Byegone”

Experimental pop group Volcano Choir, led by Bon Iver frontman Justin Vernon, have just released the video for their single, “Byegone.” The video, directed by Michinori Saigo, is pretty minimal. We’re talking light fixtures placed in a tree switching on in off and closeups of leaves. Apart from being pretty, it does work well with the […]
