I Dream A Highway
Found 11 months, 3 weeks agoAmbition in music comes in many shapes and sizes. It can be a different approach on your sophomore album (like the Killers and their unfortunate Springsteen appropriating), or a complete makeover of your sound and image (Talk Talk’s incredible transformation from New Wave also-rans to ethereal jazz-rockers). One of my ...
[Fucking] Juggernaut
Found 11 months, 3 weeks agoThere comes a surreal time when the records you purchased or traded in your wary days of teendom, are launched into the upper echelons of classic status. Such is what happened when Decibel magazine constructed their own ivory tower for the likes of Deadguy, Botch, and Dillinger Escape Plan. One ...
The Loves of My Life
Found 11 months, 3 weeks agoOur first morning together was during our final days in Amsterdam. Our elation at a new-found connection was mixed with the dark reality that our time was limited. Weeks of metaphorically dancing around each other—coy looks, soft touches—had finally come to fruition, but wrenchingly it all seemed too late. In ...
Bye July
Found 11 months, 3 weeks agoIt’s August. In a few days, I’ll pick up my inevitably erroneous schedule. A week after that, I’ll walk into the fiery pits of hell; this will quickly lead to a long state of depression. No more sleep. No more time for art. No more life. But sulking isn’t getting ...

Bizarre Love Triangle
Found 11 months, 3 weeks agoIf you asked people on the street what they feel constitutes a good cover version, you’d better prepare yourself for a lot of different answers. Some people like faithfulness to the originals, others like hearing familiar songs in unfamiliar ways. Some enjoy tongue-in-cheek, others ask for deference to the song’s ...
I Saw Sparks
Found 11 months, 3 weeks agoOK, so I haven’t seen Sparks, but I’ve certainly listened to them a great deal this past week. For the unfamiliar, Sparks came into being during the 1970’s, and their most recent endeavor, Hello Young Lovers (2006), marks their 20th studio release. The duo composes songs often employing several vocal ...
Muzzy
Found 11 months, 3 weeks agoEvery week I say to myself, “Give them something breathtaking to hear.” Well not this week. This week is about charm, childhood, and charisma. I was recently introduced to the world of Muzzy, the BBC Language Course for Children. Clearly, I’m a lost cause as far as the program is ...
How I Made My Millions
Found 11 months, 3 weeks agoHas it really been a decade? After “Creep” had torn through US radio like a comet, I’d mostly lost track of Radiohead (I wasn’t alone, of course) save the occasional play of “High and Dry” on my local rock station or something. Then the “Paranoid Android” video hit MTV, my ...
