Bonnie Prince Billy (Daytrotter Featured Artist, September 4, 2006) Let me preface this by saying that if you are not yet hip to Daytrotter you are missing out on the finest music-related website of the past year. Supplying original content from some of the most interesting, contemporary working musicians today, the site blows my mind...weekly. Plus, they have great original artwork to boot.Monday the Daytrotter folks will air their . . .

With all the Dylan talk going on this week, I thought it would be nice to visit some of the artist's unreleased outtakes from the Drunkard Archives I have been enjoying over the years. Culled from the Freewheelin' album sessions (NYC, April-Nov 1962) , these outtakes provide an interesting insight and context for where Dylan was at the time compared . . .

I will preface this by saying (admitting) I was not expecting this album from Mojave 3. That being said, I am very much into it. Trading in their slow-country-ish past for an upbeat and happy-go-lucky sound, the band's reinvention is aiding me in riding out the end of this hot West coast summer. While unexpected, Puzzles Like You is a real treat.I had fallen off the become a member or log in.

Eugene Kelly's career would probably have fared better had he arrived on the "indie" scene en masse in 2006 with his band's The Vaselines and Eugenius instead of the late '80s and early '90s respectively. While he may not have received commercial notoriety, his influence has been heard the past . . .

Today is a big Tuesday for all of us in Dylan's camp. Like a lot of you, I will be at the record store bright and early (relatively speaking) to pick up a copy of Modern Times, Dylan's 31st studio album. I have resisted checking out any of the tracks prior to the release date in order to take it in as a . . .

Sonically descending from out of nowhere, Brooklyn’s TV On The Radio tore out of the gate with their Young Liars EP unleashing their chaotic blend of fuzzed out post-rock on the indie-minded masses. Effortlessly combining an organic blend of gospel, free-jazz, punk, and drum loops, TVOTR sounded like nothing else on the contemporary music . . .

You know I was thinking, it's funny our (often baseless) first impressions. Today I received an album in the mail, and I don't know if I was just in a shitty mood or what, but the name of the band just annoyed the hell out of me, and almost cost me hearing the song below. The name of the band is Kamikaze Hearts, which in retrospect really isn't that bad of a name at . . .
