"Juturna" by Circa Survive

Hey everyone! It's Circa Survive -time for fun with androgyny! To be honest I was almost suicidally depressed after my first journey through Juturna. But I knew I needed to soldier on, so I steadied my plummeting spirits and gave it a few more goes. As we all know, first impressions of tough music a... [More]

"Immersed" by Sinai Beach

What is the fascination metal bands have with Biblical subjects? Raining blood, crimson sky, Armageddon - the book of Revelations can only get you so far. Maybe one excuse Sinai Beach has is that they're a Christian band. Like Zao and Norma Jean, Sinai Beach thumps the Bible down for a minute and pi... [More]

"State of Discontent" by The Unseen

Dust off your leather jacket and gel up your devil lock. The Unseen are here and they're going to show you how to properly do the punk chant in three chords or less. Complete with eight-second guitar solos and angry as Shitler Youth screaming about Bushonomics ("Weapons of Mass Deception"). This... [More]

"Blinking Lights" by Eels

Eels when I'm thinking about it, and depending upon my frame of mind, might just be my favorite band. Although it's been close to a decade since they could rightfully be referred to as a band. For some time Eels are more of a loose confederation, a universe unto itself that revolves around singer/so... [More]

"Kyle England's Top 5" by Coachella 2005

Well, another Coachella festival has come and gone (this is the 4th time I've had the pleasure of going) and once again I must say it lived up to all the hype. If you've never been, I'm telling you, you've gotta do it at least once in your life, it's the best live music festival going on in the Unit... [More]

"Untitled" by Autechre

Electronica forefathers Autechre stand alongside Aphex Twin, Oval, Mouse On Mars and Boards Of Canada as the purveyors of the glitch and IDM electro movement. Mixing elements of Brian Eno, Throbbing Gristle, Coil, and Neu! Autechre have been at this game for a while now, as evidenced by the fact tha... [More]

"Waiting for The Sirens Call" by New Order

New Order's 2001 album Get Ready wasn't just a great comeback album for New Order, it was their best album to date period, featuring a much heavier rock sound that made fans of even the biggest synth-skeptics. That in itself makes Waiting For The Sirens' Call all the more disappointing, because this... [More]

"Open Season" by British Sea Power

After the brilliance that was their post-punk debut The Decline Of British Sea Power, Brighton's own local heroes throw everyone for a loop and remind us forgetters what a great band the Psychedelic Furs were. I guess it makes sense that with all this new-wave revival going on, the Furs would get th... [More]

"Gimme Fiction" by Spoon

Of all the people that performed at Coachella this year, I felt the most sorry for Britt Daniel of Spoon. Not only did he have to go up against Coldplay in same time slot on a smaller stage (where's the love Goldenvoice, you stick Thrice on the main stage, but not Spoon! That makes no damn sense) bu...

"Songs For Silverman" by Ben Folds

After three internet only EP's, producing William Shatner's brilliant Has Been album, and recording an EP with his super group The Bens which also featured Ben Lee and Ben Kweller, Ben Folds has finally gotten around to making his second proper solo album titled Songs For Silverman. Many I'm sure wi... [More]

"Devils & Dust" by Bruce Springsteen

Leaving the E Street Band behind for this one, Devils & Dust is another loose concept album from Bruce Springsteen. D & D finds the Boss exploring the terrain of America's southwest and the souls who inhabit it - in much the same vein the of celebrated Nebraska and The Ghost Of Tom Joad. Put togethe... [More]

"Adam Mast's Top 5" by Coachella 2005

There's nothing quite like the Coachella Festival, particularly if you're a big music fan. It is to the U.S. what Glastonbury is to Europe, and in many ways, Coachella is even stronger thanks to it's too-good-to-be-true monstrous line-ups. Kyle England and I have sort of become veterans of the fe... [More]

"Tyson Cantrell's Top 5" by Coachella 2005

This was my first Coachella concert experience. I met up on Friday morning at Adam Mast's house. Hanging out on Adam's couch was the illustrious Kyle England watching Blue's Clues. I was glad to finally meet this legend who allows me to poke fun at him on the website, without having me offed. True h... [More]

"What Comes After The Blues" by Magnolia Electric Co.

It's hard to believe that if you include all of Songs: Ohia's catalog, Jason Molina's solo work, and now What Comes After The Blues, his second album as Magnolia Electric Co, this makes album number ten for the prolific singer/songwriter. What's even harder to believe is that he's never made a bad a... [More]

"Bleed Like Me" by Garbage

After the commercial and critical failure that was Garbage's last album Beautiful Garbage (this critic however, considered it to be their best and most daring) Shirley Manson and the boys have taken a step back toward mainstream rock with Bleed Like Me, their latest and certainly most generic releas...
