As I mentioned earlier in the month, the Dirty Three have a new LP dropping in February. My copy has been on repeat, but revisiting the Melbourne trio’s last output – 2005′s Cinder – I was reminded how I used to imagine what the album’s cornerstone track, “Great Waves,” would sound like with Will Oldham [...]
What is it that makes us want to deconstruct art by units of time? Lists. We love making them. We love arguing over them. And here, on the verge of a new decade, we’re in a position to do the same again. What were the best albums of the past ten years? Here at AD, [...]

It was previously reported that her next album was to be an all covers sequel of sorts to 2000′s The Covers Record. Things change — the new Cat Power jam is a mix of country, rock, soul and [...]
If Chan Marshall’s Myspace blog is any indication, we can expect a new Cat Power record this January via the Matador label.
