How To Dress Well – Total Loss [2012, Acéphale]

There’s a moment on the vigorous “& It Was You” when it all becomes inescapably clear: Krell has officially transcended all those pesky comparisons that have simultaneously crippled his How To Dress Well project as well as catapulted it into indie-fame. His peers like Justin Vernon (another beautiful falsetto voice shrouded amid a blanket of fog) and Abel Tesfaye (an Rn’B aficionado who isn’t afraid to use old-school hip-hop beats to give his choruses a little more punch) and even dubstep-hero Burial are all touchstones for breakthrough album Love Remains, and rightly so. That being said, it’s heartening that Total Loss is a more distinctive step past comparisons into territory all his own.

Sports Saturdays: Loyola Men’s Soccer takes on James Madison


It is Saturday night. The Laundry is done. You have saved the universe and taken back Earth with your Commander Shepard on your game console. What is there to do now?

Well, maybe watch James Madison and Loyola play soccer together?

It would be really weird if the Greyhounds were going after the fourth president of the United States, James Madison. However, the Men’s soccer team will be facing the James Madison Dukes this Saturday at 7pm. This match up that will take place at Ridley Athletic Complex will be one for the ages.

In their first away game, the Dukes will be coming into the match up with a 3-2-1 record. James Madison is hoping that record will mean something as Loyola currently holds the upper ground with a 6-1-1 overall records against the Dukes.
