Classics: Bob Dylan’s New Morning

February 18th, 2010 · No Comments

Mr Dylan’s 11th studio album was released in 1970, and personally, its my favorite of his entire catalog.
It includes “Day of The Locusts” which is about Bob Dylan’s frustration when he was presented with an honorary doctorate degree from Princeton University. Bob originally didn’t want to go; when he was asked to wear a cap [...]

Gil Scott-Heron

February 7th, 2010 · 2 Comments

Now and again you come across a record that isn’t only great but, it does more for you than other records you’ve heard in ages.
“I’m New Here” by Gil Scott-Heron has had me going back and replaying these songs over and over.
It’s a deep record.
For those of you who haven’t heard of Gil Scott Heron [...]

For those that aren’t familiar with Ricky Gervais he is an award winning writer, and comedian. He got his break on creating a show called The Office (heard of it?) with his friend Stephen Merchant. Being the comic [...]

of the new Spoon record “Transference” out Jan 19th
If you’re a long time Spoon fan you will love it
If you’ve never heard of Spoon you’ll love it
The record starts out kind of slow and weird and slowly picks up until it sounds like the angels of heaven are pounding on your door. Yeah you can [...]

Busy Busy CMJ!

October 23rd, 2009 · No Comments

It has seriously been a crazy week here. CMJ EVERYDAY
Lemme be honest, usually CMJ(college music journal, a indie music festival every year in nyc) is kind of lame. Not that great of bands, okay showcases and bad free beer.
This year has been the exact opposite and the best night is still to come. Quite a [...]

Bat For Lashes – Two Suns

April 22nd, 2009 · 1 Comment

Yeah, this record is pretty magical, and I’m not trying to sound like a hippie. Listen to the lyrics, she talks about some bizarre stuff with mythical animals and weather patterns. I’ll be honest, Natasha Khan of Bat for Lashes pulls it off. She dresses like some new age native american with face paint and [...]

Constant Hitmaker

April 1st, 2009 · No Comments

I can’t stop listening to Kurt Vile, his record “Constant Hitmaker” is continuing to lull and inspire me in more ways than most these days. With a voice like Lee Hazelwood, Kurt Viles music is this dreamy reverby bedroom pop. Hailing from Philly he’s been playing music for a while but took a bit of [...]
