Said the Gramophone has a very interesting Grizzly Bear post, centered around the track "Marla" and its origins. I can't get enough of this record lately, and I highly recommend it and StG's post.

Pitchfork has a remix of the only song I like on the new Teddybears record, "Yours To Keep." The remix features the lovely Annie. Download it here.

If you have an extra 25 bucks lying around, you might want to check out the Yellow Bird Project, where you can buy t-shirts designed by artists like Devendra Banhart, My Brightest Diamond, CYHSY, Stars, and more. All proceeds go to the charity of the artists' choice. View all of the designs/charities here. Devendra's design is my personal favorite.
