A Free Man’s Top 10 of 2008: No. 8 - Sun Kil Moon - “April”
http://afreeman.org/?feed=rss2 (Free subscription) | 12/11/2008
Just a reminder of where we’ve been thus far: 10. The Hold Steady - “Stay Positive” 9. The Black Angels - “Directions To See A Ghost” I was really struggling to come up with a way to write about the latest LP from Mark Kozelek (aka Sun Kil Moon). I knew I loved it. I knew it was [...]

Out This Week 12/9
The KEXP Blog (Free subscription) | 12/09/2008
Don’t let the sinking economy during this holiday season get you down. You just need to think smaller this year. There’s no need to buy the 9-disc Abba box set or yet another Johnny Cash collection (no matter how great the man is). Wouldn’t your music-loving friends (and you yourself) much prefer a couple under-$20 [...]

Top 10 rockers of the year
The Daily Collegian (Free subscription) | 12/09/2008
10. Sun Kil Moon - "April" Ever since Mark Kozelek started Sun Kil Moon there has always seemed to be something missing. The former Red House Painters frontman has one of the most memorable voices in the business, but for whatever reason, his past offerings have fallen surprisingly flat.

Mark Kozelek: The Finally LP (2008)
Captain Obvious (Free subscription) | 12/08/2008
New Wax Mark Kozelek of Red House Painters and Sun Kil Moon fame is easily one of my favorite songwriters. His new album The Finally LP culls hard-to-find covers and rarities, most of which appeared on tribute and benefit albums that are no longer available. I recognize the bulk of these tracks but have had some trouble tracking them down, so it's a relief to see them on an official release. Kozelek's...

Music Review: Ben Weaver - The Ax in the Oak
Blogcritics: Music (Free subscription) | 12/01/2008
When they stole your van you had no woman in your life. Ben Weaver is a songwriter, musician, poet and artist – the press materials with his new album The Ax in the Oak state that Weaver lives in an old warehouse surrounded by organs, synthesizers, guitars, samplers, pianos, a dog, Polaroid cameras, sketch books, boxes of CDs, a Powerbook, and back issues of the “New Yorker.” He used...

Sun Kil Moon - April (2008)
MusicEmissions (Free subscription) | 11/26/2008
Sun Kil Moon is the band led by Mark Kozelek , formerly of Red House Painters . April is technically Sun Kil Moon's third album but just the second that includes original material. 2005's Tiny Cities preceded April and was Kozelek's take on eleven Modest Mouse songs. The album was probably some of Kozelek's least affecting material. Which certainly came as a shock, especially considering how brilliant...

Mark Kozelek / Nov. 12, 2008 / Brooklyn, N.Y. (Music Hall of Williamsburg)
Billboard (Free subscription) | 11/13/2008
Mark Kozelek can take you from Modest Mouse to Leonard Bernstein in the span of a few songs. He can also trace the entire arc of a love affair in four minutes, the details so vivid that you feel like you've experienced them yourself.
