Track: White Fence - King Of The Decade
A while back we mentioned that Tim Presley, otherwise known as White Fence, would be releasing a double LP entitled Family Perfume. The LP will be released separately as simply Vol. 1 and Vol. 2. You can listen to the first cut from Vol. 2, “King Of The Decade”, below. In addition to the double LP, White Fence will also be releasing a collaborative LP with Ty Segall, who Tim’s currently on tour with, titled Hair.

2011 Top 11: Songs That Got Me Through The Day
By Burgers Rana
Starting with our Reader’s Poll, we’re looking back on 2011 with a series of top 10’s that will cover everything from album covers to music videos, from favorite 7“‘s to favorite LPs, so check back and see what our staff has to say as we make our way to the new year.
My top ten eleven songs that got me through the day a.k.a. more than likely the top eleven records I also enjoyed this year.
1. Kurt Vile - Baby’s Arms, Smoke Ring for My Halo (Matador)
Once you get what it is about Kurt Vile that makes him such a unique crafter of amazing gems, by then you are pretty much hooked. He might as well go by Crack Vile.
Interview: Talking to Tim
“It’s just me in my room, slowly dying. But it’s fun; it’s what I do. Some people build toothpick statues and model airplanes. I just happen to do this.”
Tim Presley is a man that is making his own mark in the industry. Aside from his time spent playing guitar in the band Darker My Love, Tim has also churned out two lengthy LP’s for his solo endeavor, White Fence. Growing up in sunny California, Tim is a seasoned musician, playing and performing in bands since his youth. “I never really decided that I was going to be a musician; I just kind of always have been from like 9 on. I was in a Spanish rock band when I was 9 called Pato Domingo. 2 strings, nylon strings.”
As we sat and talked on some random stoop in downtown Rochester where he had just performed for maybe ten or fifteen people but was still in good spirits, I could not help but be puzzled at the fact that he was enjoying himself, despite having traveled all the way across the country to get to this rather uninteresting town.
