A century or so ago, George Sterling, poet laureate of San Francisco, referred to the town as his "cool gray city of love." Legendary Bay Area newspaper columnist Herb Caen used the term on many occasions, but it came to mind after listening to The Golden Age, the latest - and surprisingly lovely - album from singer-songwriter Mark Eitzel's dark-hued confessional-folk-rock band American Music C...

American Music Club - Everclear CD

American Music Club - Everclear CDThe difficult fifth album. Recorded for another label and well overbudget, Everclear both suffers and excels for its production shortcomings. A thick wash of reverb has been thrown over the proceedings and songs are either hopelessly buried in the ambient sludge ("The Confidential Agent") or enhanced to supersonic glory ("Sick of Food"). Singer Mark Eitzel's l...

California 34 - Ohio 6
about 1 year ago

Here is a useless bit of Blair trivia for ya...i have 34 songs with California in the title, only 6 Ohio songs. Can you name the super six? Yes...its is that boring here.Leave it to Mark Eitzel to give such a hopeful, optimistic song an edge of angst.A very cool version of one one of the truly great songs ever.

New music from American Music Club

Mark Eitzel’s latest is a really good one, The Golden Age out in February on Merge Records. Here’s my Dusted review which ran last week.American Music ClubThe Golden Age(Merge)There's a moment in "One Step Ahead," about two minutes into what seems a fairly unthreatening, literate pop song, when things take a dramatic turn. The close harmonies slip a half-step closer and turn to discord, the dr...

American Music Club - Still San Francisco's Best '90s Band
over 3 years ago
Blog post image preview

In the early '90s, the American Music Club ruled the San Francisco underground. In the South of Market world where they lived and worked, the members of AMC were stars. They recorded a series of albums, beginning with Engine and including California, Everclear, Mercury and San Francisco that were mind-blowing at the time, and now - more than a decade later - show themselves to be timeless mast...
