Sebadoh :: Bubble And Scrape (Reissue)

Posted on June 29, 2008July 6, 2008

This, the reissue of Bubble And Scrape , is the sound of inevitability. Like various ’90s indie rock contemporaries before them, the Sebadoh reissues continue to gradually creep out; complete with a healthy dose of extras (15 tracks), which, […]

Big Dipper :: Supercluster Anthology

Posted on June 29, 2008June 29, 2008

It’s hot outside — L.A. has been in the in the midst of an early summer heat wave, and with much of the city air condition-less we could certainly use some music to match it. […]

Sigur Rî³s :: Meî° suî° î­ eyrum viî° spilum endalaust

Posted on June 28, 2008

Listening to Sigur Rî³s has always required stepping out of the real world of traffic jams, smog, headaches, and Salinger novels. The grand, idyllic nature of the Icelanders’ music has always required a suspension of disbelief, a […]

Craig Finn (The Hold Steady) :: AD Interview, Pt 1

Posted on June 27, 2008June 28, 2008

Sevens :: Steely Dan: Reelin’ in the Years

Posted on June 25, 2008June 25, 2008

The Replacements :: Shit, Shower & Shave (1989)

Posted on June 25, 2008July 1, 2008

A long traded compilation, Shit, Shower & Shave, recorded in 1989, is the sound of the band while on tour with Tom Petty who later, infamously, ripped off Westerberg’s “rebel without a clue” line from […]
