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 . . .

"choose life. choose a job. choose a starter home. choose dental insurance, leisure wear and matching luggage.

Look what arrived in my mailbox the other day...Sebadoh III. As I unwrapped the clear plastic, I may have wondered aloud "what goodies await a Drunkard other than the opportunity to hear a copy of this album free from the hiss of my well-worn high school cassette??" Turns out quite a few goodies . . .

If you on the eastside of L.A., or for that matter anywhere in L.A. with a running automobile, consider getting out and about this weekend for the years annual Sunset Junction Festival. It's a good old fashioned neighborhood block party. Here are some of the acts I plan on checking out while eating delicious tacos on the street.-----------------Drive-by Truckers +++

This just hit my inbox -- thought I would share. As most of you old fans have surely heard, Evan Dando has re-formed The Lemonheads much in the same way as Jay Farrar re-formed Son Volt in 2005. Both with entirely different lineups. How this constitutes a reunited band is questionable, but seeing how much I liked Dando's 2003 solo album become a member or log in.
Wow, now this is the good shit. One of perks of writing An Aquarium Drunkard is all the weekly reader tips/suggestions/emails we receive here at HQ. Thanks, and do keep 'em comin'. The latest example of fine music to grace our mailbox from a reader is the late Link Wray's self-titled 1971 album originally released on Polydor. Make no mistake, this is not Link in instrumental surf-guitar mode, but the man handling . . .

Not unlike Ethan Miller's side-project, Howlin' Rain, this latest Comets On Fire album embraces such '70s rock luminaries as The Allman Brothers and Hendrix. Picking up where Blue Cathedral left off, become a member or log in.
