While we're not great ones for themed mixes on MM, Halloween is one of the exceptions we like to make. Here is a perfect mix for whatever ghoulish event you've got lined up today! Fifteen corking tunes, from the skewed new wave pop of XTC and off-kilter indie of the Mountain Goats to the trashy surf rock of The Cramps and from the folk-stomp of the Men They Couldn't Hang and the gothic drive of Ghost Dance to the pounding blues rock of the Scissormen and 22-20s . Enjoy. [...]
L'annonce de la reformation officielle des Anglais en septembre avait été une vraie putain de bonne nouvelle. Ils s'étaient séparés après que Martin Trimble et les autres membres du groupe n'aient pas réussi à se mettre d'accord sur la direction artistique qu'ils souhaitaient prendre. Ils sont finalement arrivés à un accord, ont recommencé à tourner en Angleterre sous le pseudonyme Bitter Pills, l'un des titres qui figurent sur ce nouvel album, avant d'officialiser tout ça en sortant "Latest Heartbreak" en single (sans la moindre annonce, c'est en allant faire un tour sur leur MySpace que je l'ai appris !).

Back in 2002, the large-scale music festival landscape in the United States was virtually nonexistent. So when Superfly Presents and AC Entertainment announced plans for a multi-day, jam-friendly fest, named after an Creole word they found in the title of an old Dr. John album, to take place in southeastern Tennessee, who knew if it would make it to year two? Well, as we all know, the initial Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival was a overwhelming success, which quickly cemented itself as the premier destination fest in the country, by offering a diverse selection of music, comedy and [...]

You may recall that a while back we caught up with The 22-20s at San Francisco's Rickshaw stop. Well, the show was such a treat that we couldn't resist seeing them again. When we got word that the band would be stopping over in New York, we made sure to be there, so that we could catch a killer set from this reunited British quartet. Much like in San Francisco, the band was in top form, and delivered a nearly bulletproof set of blues-influenced British rock. [...]

Πάντοτε μετά από κάτι τέτοια ταξίδια αργούμε να προσαρμοστούμε στο δικό μας περιβάλλον. Ειδικά όταν αυτά τα ταξίδια είναι πλούσια σε εμπειρίες, καινούργιους φίλους και άγνωστα μέρη που έγιναν αγαπημένα πολύ σύντομα. Ευτυχώς όμως η ελληνική πραγματικότητα αναλαμβάνει να μας δώσει τις απαραίτητες σφαλιάρες για να συνέλθουμε. Πρώτη μέρα που γυρίζουμε και ακούμε: κάηκε το φοινικόδασος στην Κρήτη ( οι υπεύθυνοι είπαν οτι είχε αγοραστεί σύγχρονος αντιπυρικός εξοπλισμός αλλά δεν χρησιμοποιήθηκε απο την πυροσβεστική υπηρεσία επειδή [...]
Last Thursday night we stopped in at Rickshaw Stop for another visit with The 22-20s , and we weren't disappointed. Much like the last time we caught up with them , the British band delivered an exquisite set of no bullshit rock and roll, and left the crowd thoroughly satisfied. The set consisted of a mix of older and newer material, and the band seemed more comfortable with their newer stuff, perhaps due to the album having seen wide release since the last [...]

The Canadian band is bringing its jaunty, radio-friendly rock to the Belly Up. Follow us on Facebook and Twitter for contests, MP3s, and links that don't make it onto the blog.
When I first tried to see Hot Hot Heat at the Roseland two years ago, I found out en route to the show that the band had canceled. They did at least show up for their gig at the Doug Fir Lounge on Tuesday night, undeniably a step in the right direction. Unfortunately, progress seems to have stalled at that point. The evening began on a promising enough note. Local openers Derby ably put together a set of rhythm-heavy pop tunes that, if they didn't exactly kick off a [...]

Upon first listen I couldn't help but be reminded of 22-20s, not just singer Sam's voice but the bluesy guitar and the melodies that back him up. It's not a huge surprise once you look at their influences and Sam's work in the musical arena already. Influenced by The Dead Weather, 22-20s, Kings Of Leon, BRMC, and The Kills to name a few, Sam's played for Spiritualized on tour and on TV, and has sang backup vocals on tour with Blur. That's pretty impressive, the fact that he cannot just sing well as a backup, but hold his [...]
It's amazing the things that pass under the radar sometimes. Lincolnshire quartet, 22-20s were once one of the most talked about bands on the UK music circuit (back in 2004, Fado Fado) and heralded as an intrinsic component of the blues rock revival prior to their 'amicably' split following the release of their debut. They [...]

22-20's: Heart on a String Art: from Scarlet #1
Having originally broken up in 2006 with one self-titled album under their belts, Lincolnshire band 22-20s initially went out of their way to avoid generating hype for their first new record in six years. After playing a "one-off" reunion gig at the request of their label Heavenly Records in 2008, the band denied any possibility of reforming permanently but before long they were touring quietly with new material under a pseudonym. That pseudonym was Bitter Pills, also the title of the second track on the new album that has eventually emerged, Shake/Shiver/Moan . That song's [...]
