From last.fm:
There are three artists with this name: 1) Maudlin is a sludge band from Belgium. In 2009 Maudlin, willing to take over the world, becomes .maudlin (with a dot) because of existing bands with the same. "In a genre overwhelmed with sad bands, MAUDLIN may be the saddest of them all. It’s difficult to describe feelings we ain’t familiar with. The sadness, anger and depression the band has gone through is reflected in the repetitive, yet very powerful song structure. Sometimes it feels like MAUDLIN only has one friend: their instruments. Read more about Maudlin on Last.fm.

So It Goes
From Minneapolis

From last.fm:
Imagine stepping inside a new wave, discotheque arcade, where the boombox shocks, the disco ball drops, and the kick drum keeps the time. If “past is prologue” and the future is in bionics, SO IT GOES is now and tomorrow. This past September 2006, SO IT GOES released its first full-length record – HISTORIONICS – on its independent label Now Here This Records. The tracks were produced and recorded at Flowers Studio in Minneapolis. Local creator Ed Ackerson — pointman of the Susstones electronic collective — worked the controls to capture the sonic energy unique to SO IT GOES. Read more about so it goes on Last.fm.
