I have been having trouble discovering new bands that I want to listen to lately. Thankfully I came across the band Here We Go Magic the other day. From start to finish, their self-titled album is solid. We like the way the name sounds so we set it [...]

If anyone has seen the movie DiG!, they know that a lot of bad vibes surround The Brian Jonestown Massacre. From getting into fights with each other on stage, kicking members of the audience in the face, drug abuse, you name it, there is not a lot of positive energy that surrounds the [...]

Back in 2002 the music scene was hit with an influx of “The” bands who all were staking out their claim as “rock revivalists.” There were The Strokes, The White Stripes, The Hives and the Vines. The Vines are for the most part forgotten. It is a shame because their debut album [...]

I first heard this song, “White Sky” played at the Pitchfork Music Festival last year and it was a joy to hear it on a nice summer day. It sounds great on Jimmy Fallon as well. I have kind of gone in waves liking Vampire Weekend. When their album first came out, [...]

First off let me start by saying I could really care less about how many stars Rolling Stone gives certain records. They are horrible reviews with little substance. The little thing that does annoy me about Rolling Stone’s record reviews is their issuing of 5 star albums. This is the maximum amount [...]

One of my favorite music blogs, the fantastic Aquarium Drunkard has released a high quality cover compilation of my favorite post-Beatles solo album, Paul McCartney’s Ram.

Now this is just downright vogue-tastic. After releasing what has become of my favorite albums of 2008, which I only realized after I made a best of list, I have always wondered what Hercules and Love Affair were like live. Their look kind of reminds me of an early 80’s urban anti-drug commercial [...]

I was in Starbucks today grabbing a coffee and a nice little song was playing in the background. It took me a couple seconds to realize it was Take On Me by A-ha being played acoustically. I listened to it some more and realized it sounded like “that guy from the New Pornographers” [...]
