Life is paying me back for my nightmare that was 2006....but it is doing so in the most shallow way EVER! In 2007, my alma mater Ohio State reached the national championship game in both football and basketball(yes...we lost both games, but the entire experiences of getting there were just great) and now my beloved Cleveland Cavaliers are marching into the NBA Finals....something that I NEVER thou
I’ve been a Lou Barlow fan for as long as I can remember. Ever since my pal Chris handed me a dubbed cassette with Sebadoh’s Bakesale on the A side. After wearing that down I picked up the actual CD and rode that baby into the sunset. That album led me to the Kids soundtrack [...]
Spending my monday night with Lou Barlow's sublime lyrics and the beer leftover from a wonderful,music filled weekend...and as this song started up I thought it would be the pefect time to induct it into my own personal hall of fame.I think this song has made it onto EVERY single mix cd that I have made for the last five years...if that isn't the definition of an all time favorite, I don't know wh
Lou Barlow's output is something to behold. Across albums with Dinosaur Jr., Sebadoh and Folk Implosion, as well as a string of side- and solo-projects (some released as Sentridoh, some released under his own name), Barlow's explored a lot of territory.

Lou Barlow proved early on that a guitar and four-track could produce h...

"High School" from Lou Barlow's excellent low-folk mini album "Winning Losers" has come up three times in the past week on my shuffled up iTunes. I couldn't tell you the last time I really listened to this album, but it was close enough to actual high school that (although I always loved the song) the true beauty of it was surely lost on me. Delicious!"Truth is a delusion, honesty is not the ...
Actually, I don't even know what day I'm at. It's been a while. Does anybody else go through epic phases where they're obsessed with a certain genre and spend all their bandwith downloading random music of the genre (legally, of course)? I'm convinced I'm the only one who goes through these on such a massive scale. I had five months where I downloaded as much metal as possible. Well currently, ...
