This chart is not just about the readers' vote
Posted by admin on January 20, 2010
April, there's a separate Fans' Chart for that (see post below). Talk Normal of course have more than 5 fans - the band opened for Sonic Youth and is touring the US with Xiu Xiu - it's just that they didn't promote the poll amongst them. As you can see from the fans' poll results, some bands promote it and get votes, while other don't. The winners of our Fans' poll will also get some exposure and some prizes, but in this particular list the juror's vote has more weight.
Really?
Posted by April on January 20, 2010
The "emerging" artist of the year has 5 fans? Wow, they must be fresh out of the womb or something?

June 2010
Very Fresh
Americana

mp3

Ah, the delights of The Deli's Open Blog! NYC duo Very Fresh posted an open blog entry here a few days ago - we checked out their songs and... we were impressed! "Marker", in particular,  is a splendid song, very fresh sounding, slightly reminiscent of Liz Phair for the honest, fun delivery and the surprising melodic turns, but more chilled and intense - Phair's material was always so: "yeah whatever, this isn't really affecting me at all, dudes..."
This song shows a ton of potential and earns the band's EP "Americana" the Deli NYC's CD of the Month title. Amongst the other tracks we also like spare and dark "On Moot Point", while "The Clientele", which also displays a Barretesque love for unexpected melody twists, would benefit from better performances.
