Chad vanGaalen - "Wing Finger"
I picture this performed to an egg, a necessary serenade for every egg to hatch. Chad vanGaalen, his voice worn out from the bird warbling for 10 hours a day, bringing as many little hatchlings to life as one banjo and two muted trumpets and some simple organ can do. It's the chick that brings the bass drum, the xylophone, joins in, plays along, whistles, and all those other fitting, tired, lively things. [Buy Infiniheart]
Matthew Friedberger - "Ruth Vs. Rachel"
The looseleaf is a landscape. Blue lines on white, are either roads or the ridges of hills, you need a scale this big to handle this song; it plays the whole page. And when the strings swell, the margin lights up. There was writing on it a while ago, but it was beaten out, by a big-haired, an oversized-shirt beefy bully Nolan. The flute leaves us where we started, packed up in a car. [Pre-order]
