Steely Dan :: Live/Sessions/Radio, ’74-’00

Laura Gibson :: Beasts of Seasons
In the hyper-pace of the 21st century, it’s a given that things at times feel disposable. We live in a culture that exudes and promotes quantity over quality, where “immediate” and “fair” are qualities that […]

Neil Young & Devo :: Hey Hey, My My (1982)
Richard Buckner :: The Hill (Reissue, Revisited)
When it comes to Americana as a genre, many of its purveyors offer a sense that they’ve lived through their collection. No matter the story form or execution, you often believe (or are plainly told) […]
Summon My Baptist Ways
In 2006 I spent a good bit of time with Dogme 95’s debut LP, Arcadian Hyms. Thanks to a 100 gb hard drive and iTunes shuffle I was recently reminded of its lo-fi charms; i.e. the unlikely […]
