With the July release of their debut album through Rough Trade Records, 1990s have already left a giant impression. Jackie, Jaimie, and Michael have been wowing 'em at the UK festivals and at a few much buzzed about New York and Los Angeles shows. 1990s Tour Dates Sun - Oct 07 @ First Unitarian Church, Philadelphia, PA w/ Voxtrot Tue - Oct 09 @ The Mod Club, Toronto, ON w/ Voxtrot Wed - Oct 10 @ Zaphod Beeblebrox, Ottawa, ON w/ Voxtrot Thu - Oct 11 @ La Sala Rossa, Montreal, QC w/ Voxtrot Fri - Oct 12 [...]

I peaked in 1993. I acknowledge that I was 14. I shopped at Urban Outfitters and from the Delia's mail-order catalog. I supplemented my outfits with discreet items from Contempo Casuals. I won best dressed in my middle school year book. I had two parents that viewed me as the anti-christ. They grounded me when I stopped eating meat. They grounded me when I moved too close to them in the kitchen. I confidently started high school with my band of alterna-teens behind me. We were crushed. Suburban high school was different. Abercrombie t-shirts and cargo [...]

Back from Belgium's Pukkelpop festival. It was certainly better than I was expecting and fulfilled many of my musical fantasies. The following is a very brief musical overview of Pukkelpop. I will get my camera film developed in time and post my festival in pictures in due course. Thursday: Lo-Fi-FNK kicked it off, after two years waiting to see them, my moment finally came, enjoyable electropop fun, just need to work on their dance moves (hypocrisy) [...]

Right now I'm incredibly frustrated knowing I have plenty of things I'd like to post on, but that first I need to go back to the folks' house to get albums out of the mail and photos (from Georgie James, etc.) off my camera and onto my computer. So I'm putting out a whole bunch of releases that I don't want to write about in detail when so many other bloggers have done them justice already. 1990s: Cookies ( Buy it! ) Hailing from the U.K., these kids know how [...]
i am uber tired this week. i think my brain has meltzord. seriously. i'm working at this crazy job and i cannot think straight, and they won't let me listen to music during the day so when it comes time for my much needed 4pm dance party rejuvination it JUST DOES NOT HAPPEN. so. worst. but if i was going to have a 4pm dance party instead of slamming dunkin donuts iced coffees like no body's business all day, here is some new stuff I would throw on it: Los [...]

It is official. Conde nast pulled the plug on Jane magazine. (Me stating this TODAY may make you wonder if I am living in a cave, due to the fact it sounds like I am a month behind in news. No cave, I wrote this for another site and they did not use it.) It is a bittersweet week in the life of any girl raised on the words and icon of Jane Pratt. I have a box in my parents' attic full of every Sassy magazine ever produced. They are cut up from me making those poster collages of [...]

Man I hate bloggers that talk about themselves all the time and self-promote them or their site.....we`ll today I`m gonna be " That Guy "! First I`m very excited to announce that my band The Spyes will be playing its first gig in a few years....Yes that`s right ladies and gentlemen book off August 30 and be ready to head to The Embassy [...]

Dodge already described my love for electro pop and power pop. But he forgot to mention my obsession with Brit pop and the fact that he has deemed me a Brit-pop slut. I'm not ashamed of that. No matter if it whines like Aqualung or wails like The Kooks , I will eat it up if it has an accent. This brings me to the latest import from Glasgow, the 1990s . They use a mix of jangly swagger and lyrical [...]

I'm pretty sure there has been one Next Big Thing From England per week this year. This week's candidates to win your hearts with their sexy riffs and cool accents are the Wombats , who, with the requisite exclamatory press clippings from the likes of NME, play Cinespace tonight and Club NME at Spaceland on Wednesday. These days a band can create an avalanche of buzz on the basis of one or two songs, and the Liverpool trio seems to have done just that. The catchy pop-punk on their debut EP gives the band the same [...]

You never know what kind of crowd there's going to be at a show with no advance tickets, especially with a band like 1990s who've gotten a fair amount of blog love. They're also Scottish, with a connection to Franz...
I had no idea there was a new Josh Rouse album out this week. That's very exciting news and I will probably go out and pick that up at some point today. If there's one thing you can expect with a new release from the Nebraska native, is that it will be consistent. From his debut Dressed Up Like Nebraska onwards - i've yet to ever hear a bad record. Also out this week is the US release of the Mercury Prize nominated Bat for Lashes album Fur and Gold , [...]

It's a surprisingly thin week. I've been told it has something the fact that it's the last day of the month, whatever that means. A few releases haven't been scared away, including anticipated new ones from 1990s , Shivaree and Bat For Lashes' latest finally sees it's US release. Playlist: New Releases 07.31.07 ------------------------------ ---------------- Album: 1990s - Cookies For the handful of [...]

Besides The Simpsons Movie soundtrack, available now in drool-inducing Limited Edition Donut Packaging, you can finally get the domestic release of the debut by Mercury Prize nominated Bat for Lashes , the solo project of Brighton-based songwriter Natasha Khan. You can also pick up the Kanye West-produced new album by Common , a video game soundtrack by Z-Trip , a debut from brash Glaswegian [...]
