thank you for rocking. For rocking my socks and my fishnets. For making rock so sexy. For rocking even more than this glorious pencil-sharpener:For making me bounce off the walls.Come to Greece, you can sleep on my couch. Don't make me come all the way to San Fransisco and drag you back to my cave.On second thought... ;)Rockingly and primitively yours,Anna._Heavy little lovers, as we're fightin...

Likelihood notwithstanding, if you ever find yourself wanting to go CD shopping whilst malling in Bangkok, I have a couple of things to say as a tourist.The ubiquitous CD Warehouses have unsurprisingly the biggest inventory and fastest turnover. By which I mean that, when you decide at any point to buy a CD, it takes as little effort to walk back to the last store as to go forward to the next s...

Baby 81, that is.Just so you know, I'm no music journo or insider, surrounded by advance releases, so when I get something early, it's pretty exciting. When a wonderful, special, beautiful person up and sent me the new Black Rebel Motorcycle Club album, months ahead of its release, I got pretty excited. See, you must understand, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club came along just as I was noticing the ...

Why don't more bands send out a full package of live stuff? Instead of just the occasional live album, or a live DVD, why not do a full combo of both and throw in a bonus disc with more goodies.

Well, there is one band that just put out a fantasti...

*Weapon of Choice*BRMC came along for me when there was a real hole in my musical existence, a lack of feedback-drenched new music. The Jesus and Mary Chain had broken up, and no one had really taken on their gauntlet, until the first time I ever heard "Love Burns" and just knew that this was a band whose output I could love. If you haven't done so, check out the debut album, it's a relentless roc

This song is completely in my head right now. Don't know why. Perhaps it's the "La Grange" style riff. Or that B.R.M.C. just rocks that much.

Pitchfork gave these guys a 4.5....but I am not that smart and actually sort of enjoyed the album.Here's my review from May Harp.Black Rebel Motorcycle ClubBaby 81RCASince their striking 2001 debut, BRMC has struggled with label problems, lifestyle issues and customs regulations, and oscillated between midnight Jesus & Mary Chain drones and roots-bluesy, Zeppelin-esque Howls. Now, with the thir...

BRMC is a great band, especially live. This is something a little different for them but it shows an interesting side to their repertoire. This Dylan tune dates back to 1964 near the time of the actual and very sad event that he's describing in the song. Enjoy...
