It’s awesome.John Vanderslice – Too Much TimeVideo: John Vanderslice [...]

One of my pet peeves when reading John Vanderslice reviews’ is people pointing out that his albums focused too much on being “average” or being happy with being mediocre. I really whole-heartedly believe that it’s not true. While there’s nothing wrong with being more of an extrovert as a musician, the goal to try to [...]Related posts:John Vanderslice – Fetal Horses MP3 Review With sch

John Vandersliceby Jessica Gentile • May 28, 2009 John VandersliceRomanian Names(Dead Oceans, 2009)On Romanian Names, the seventh album of his career, John Vanderslice doesn't do much differently and yet he somehow does much better. In typical Vanderslice style, the production is as crisp as always, which is no doubt indebted to long-time collaborator Scott Solter. The lyrics remain detailed a.

John Vanderslice is now on his seventh studio album and has officially been present in the world of music for a decade. You'd think that with ten entire years honing your skills and working on your faults that finally, you'd know where you wanted to be as a musician and would've settled within your comfort zone.

Romanian Names (out May 19th) will be the seventh studio album from San Francisco musician John Vanderslice since he burst onto the indie scene in 2000. That's a lot of output for anyone not named "Adams" or "Pollard".Unlike those aforementioned prolific artists, Vanderslice has put a premium on quality songs. The indie pop/rock you will find on Romanian Names is well-crafted and

After years of getting nice emails from John Vanderslice, I finally got to meet him at Monolith. I actually first ran into him in the men's room on Saturday, but waited outside to introduce myself because I "couldn't stand to say that I met John Vanderslice in the bathroom." John's set was good too. Unfortunately [...]

John Vanderslice - Emerald City(Barsuk, 2007)7.5 stars out of 10It is my pleasure to announce the arrival of the sixth good album in seven years by singer-songwriter, producer and reliable motherfucker John Vanderslice. It would be disingenuous to say I like 'em all the same (the songs on 2002's Life and Death of an American Fourtracker have stuck with me the least thus far), but they've all ha...
