One By One I’ll Knock Ya Out…

You may recall that a couple of months ago I derided Beck's output post Sea Change; you can read that here if you like. The gist was that the last two commercial releases seemed like tired re-treads of his older material. Now press . . .

Paleo :: is david andrew strackany…

THE SONG DIARY - Long Story Short: 365 songs in 365 daysMorgan at Yer Bird introduced me to the sounds of Paleo last April, but I had almost entirely forgotten about the artist until last week when I received a sampler from Paleo's ongoing song diary project. In a world of post-Sufjan's 50 states project, I'll admit the undertaking sounded . . .

Southtown Girls Won’t Blow You Away…

The Hold Steady's "Southtown Girls" may well be the most listened to single song in my collection since the release of their latest album, Boys and Girls in America, in October. It's damn catchy in that 'return-to-the-rock' kind of way that . . .

Johnny Cash :: At San Quentin (2006)

If it seems like this 1969 recording, Johnny Cashs second Live stint in a prison, was just reissued not too long ago it's because, well, it was. In 2000 audiences were graced with the At San Quentin (The Complete 1969 Concert) two disc reissue featuring:

Beach House :: Sunday Morning Sounds

Read music blogs? If so you have no doubt read (numerous) blurbs on the languid, yet exceptional, Beach House debut -- and for good reason. Laid back in all the right places, this may be the Sunday morning album of 2006. The LP makes the case for quality unobtrusive background music that seeps in over time/over coffee with the morning news.If you're here in Los Angeles, the Baltimore duo will be playing become a member or log in.

Loudquietloud :: A Film About the Pixies

In my mind The Pixies canon is hallowed ground, so much so that I opted out of seeing them live when they re-formed in 2004 for fear the experience might taint the music and memories for me. After watching this DVD I see that my fears were unwarranted as the . . .

The Devil And Daniel Johnston :: DVD

A truly great documentary works for the audience regardless of it's source material; one such recent example of this is The Devil And Daniel Johnston. Regarded by some as an incomparable artistic genius, and by others as a troubled and talentless hack, Johnston's cult of personality is polarizing to say the least.

A haunting film, director Jeff Feuerzeig captures . . .
