I promise there is no unwritten rule stating Neil Young must grace the virtual pages of An Aquarium Drunkard, at least in some fashion, once a month. Admittingly, it does seem like that sometimes. So […]

Released in 2000 on the Tone Cool label, Shake Hands With Shorty is an album comprised completely of classic blues covers — and it’s a great. I saw the band a couple of times upon it’s release and they pulled it […]

A good time was had by all during yesterday’s Aquarium Drunkard Show at Little Radio’s warehouse space in downtown L.A. I enjoyed The Whigs song I played so much that I played it twice. Dig that, commercial […]

photo credit: Ryan Dombal Blacklisted was great, but I think Fox Confessor Brings The Flood transcends even it – which is pretty damn impressive. I posted “Hold On, Hold On” a couple of months ago — so . . […]

Yeah, these guys are good, so listen up. Sounds like: humid and sticky – kudzu draped – intelligent -indie rock & roll. Athens, GA continues to produce the good-shit regardless of genre…The Whigs just further […]

Question: Does anyone know what the difference is between the1995 version of this record I had back in the day, and this newly reissued version? All Amazon has listed under the tracklisting is “album version” […]

I would like to weigh in with tmwsiy* on the Mark Lanegan/Isobel Campbell collaboration Ballad of the Broken Seas . I too agree it to be one of my favorite releases thus far in 2006. Lanegan’s trademark whiskey & […]

If you haven’t heard, this month The Library of Congress’ National Recording Preservation Board added Sonic Youth’s seminal album Daydream Nation to it’s ranks. Being one of my favorite albums by one of my long-time favorite bands, I felt this an appropriate time to reflect […]
