1999. The first Coachella Valley Music and Arts festival is held. It went on to become one of the largest and most popular music festivals in the world. Some of the biggest musical acts in history play here every year. It is so popular, sometimes even dead people perform.
But I like it mostly for the fake posters that come out every year.
2000. Outkast releases Stankonia. It's jam packed with incredible songcraft, amazing melodies, a bunch of hits, and one of the most stylish musicians of all time. They sure know how to make yellow pants and purple grass look fantastic.
2001. The Shins release their debut album Oh, Inverted World. Whether or not this album changes your life, the brilliant craftsmanship in these songs is undeniable. Everything you want in a pop album is here: creepy lyrics, poppy hooks and hooky pops. And not only are The Shins a great band, they look great in life vests.
2013. My apologies for the lack of updates. I've been hard at work making some music videos for Old Monk. I promise to update the site soon, but for now check out this brand new music video I animated, "Fowl and Foe" by Old Monk.
2002. Wilco releases Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. Many things have been said about how perfect this album is, and none of these things exaggerate. Perfect songwriting, lyrics, guitars, and pure energy. It is just rad.
And those buildings on the cover? One time Steve McQueen chased a bad guy off of them. So rad.
2003. Mars Volta releases their debut album De-Loused in the Comatorium. With its chaotic jazzy-rock madness, this album fuses hardcore and prog rock in insanely fun new ways. And its commercial success proved that prog is not just for guitar geeks anymore
It’s also for guys with awesome afros.
2004. Arcade Fire releases their debut album, Funeral. Intense, dramatic, powerful, and loved by just about everyone, this album inspired countless imitators. Every musician aspires to create albums that are this good.
Also, at least one person in this band looks like this guy.
2005. Clap Your Hands Say Yeah self-releases their self-titled debut. They become one of the first bands to achieve huge success not through record deals and marketing, but through blogs and the internet. It also helped that they wrote dang good songs.
Anyways. Ahem... child stars child stars child stars child stars child stars child stars child stars child stars...
2006. Man Man releases their breakthrough album, Six Demon Bag, and begin to tour the world extensively with their wild and riotous live shows. With absurd levels of energy, tons of crazy instruments, and super catchy songs, they become one of the best live acts ever.
Now watch them knock stuff over for musical purposes.
2007. Radiohead releases In Rainbows as a digital download for the price of whatever you feel like paying. With odd time signatures, riffy guitars, and some sweet soothing falsettos, they make a good case that that number should be greater than zero.
I mean, just watching Thom Yorke dance is worth at least a few bucks.
2008. Vampire Weekend asks everyone about their thoughts on Oxford Commas. They also write a bunch of fantastic songs and stick them on a record. A little punky, a little baroque, a little African, and lots awesome.
And for the record, oxford commas eliminate ambiguity and I care about them deeply.
2009. Grizzly Bear releases a sweet collection of songs in an album called Veckatimest. Then their heads explode. With wonderfully crafted compositions of thoughtful melodies, and powerful harmonies, this record kicks you in the face, but very tenderly and lovingly.
Then, these songs popped up all over TV, and everyone in bands got jealous.
2010. Girl Talk releases All Day as a free download. The legitimacy of the mashup as a true form of songwriting is proven by Gregg Gillis. He is the master of transforming the familiar into new creations of ridiculously fun insanity.
And even after the novelty wears off, Ludacris rapping over Black Sabbath is still badass.
2011. Bradford Cox releases Parallax, his third solo album as Atlas Sound. With stripped down songwriting and a crooning yet sometimes goofy live performance, Cox makes us all as sad and lonely as he is.
And he plays shows in his pyjamas.
2012. Dirty Projectors teach some guy how to play air guitar. Then they record an amazing record and call it Swing Lo Magellan. Incredible virtuosic guitars, unbelievable vocal harmonies, and sweet, sweet melodies.
And every time this happens I headbang uncontrollably.
2012. Psy releases his music video for Gangnam Style. Never before has an artist so foreign been able to make such a huge impact with one crazy music video. And this video is definitely crazy. Also great.
This is the Platonic Ideal of a viral sensation.
2011. St Vincent releases Strange Mercy and plays a set at the Temple of Dendur in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. She plays amazingly beautiful songs with her amazingly rad guitar fingers.
And I am amazed by her amazingness.
