Today's Hotness: Young Adults, Bozmo, Silkworm

Today's Hotness: Young Adults, Bozmo, Silkworm >> Boston-spawned indie-punk titans Young Adults at long last today made an enhanced version of its electrifying Born In '91 cassingle available as a five-song digital download and (limited edition) CD. The original version of Born In '91 was issued last summer as a cassette sold at the trio's live shows, but the 2013 version is not just easier for the non-tape-obsessed to use. It also touts some newly recorded guitar tracks on the title track and the opener "Context," as well as a "more chaotic-sounding mix courtesy of Justin Pizzoferrato," Young Adults [...]

Closing the books on 2012

Closing the books on 2012 Here are a few last words on 2012. Local flavor I didn't hear enough local (Chicago) releases in 2012 to create a definitive best-of list for the year. (This is something I want to rectify in 2013.) But I did hear some really good albums, including those made by  Radar Eyes, Disappears, Hollows (pictured above) and Wes Hollywood . Check these artists out. I also really liked soul / R&B revivalists The Right Now . Replicate - Disappears Guilty [...]

One Million Strips Of Paper Fastened By One Staple

Archers of Loaf "Assassination on X-Mas Eve" And here you are, the world's most morbid Christmas song, even more so than "Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer." Aside from that odd siren-like harmonic effect on the guitar, my favorite thing about this song is the way Eric Bachmann's lyrics put this tragedy in the context of the most mundane aspects of its aftermath. The dark humor – and also, the pathos – is in how Christmas is mostly ruined by those little things, and not so much the actual murder of the "hero." [...]

Blowin’ Cool

Blowin’ Cool The Chills loved their leather jackets and probably took really good care of theirs. Listening Super Vacations ' ode to their leather jackets, Faded Leather Jacket, it is more heathen, but no less vital. On LP number three the Super Vacations blow the roof off it. What is "it?" It could be  a car, house, office, lean-to, or bus-stop. It doesn't matter, you will get the same result.  Roof blown off.  The Richmond, Virginia band work with some pretty basic elements but prove that magic happens. Lots of fuzzy, chiming and angular guitars and [...]

The Year I Embraced Nostalgia Tours

The Afghan Whigs  - Love Crimes

Live Review: Archers of Loaf at Chicago’s Bottom Lounge (8/24)

Live Review: Archers of Loaf at Chicago’s Bottom Lounge (8/24) "We're Archers of Loaf , not Archers of Loaf's Dad," quipped bassist Matt Gentling upon taking the stage. Despite the statement's comic intent, it might have seemed like a necessary proclamation- until the band started playing. It's been 14 years since Archers of Loaf released a proper album, and although the members are now in their 40s, they've lost none of their trademark live ferocity. Even during the starker, sludgier material from later albums All the Nation's Airports and White Trash Heroes , Gentling plodded with drunken spark, guitarist Eric Johnson teetered at the edge [...]

Archers Of Loaf - Harnessed In Slums
Bachmann burner overdrives... See what I did there? Merge, 2012 7.8/ 10.0 My music listening in the '90s cut quite a wide swath through the big tent that qualified as “indie”. Chapel Hill, North Carolina’s Archers of Loaf were more or less always at the periphery of my musical tastes, [...]

Review of The Daredevil Christopher Wright’s The Nature Of Things and giveaway

Review of The Daredevil Christopher Wright’s The Nature Of Things and giveaway File Under: Music Prior to a few years ago, the city of Eau Claire, Wisconsin wasn't widely known for very much besides being a convenient stopping point between Madison and Minneapolis. That has largely changed, at least amongst certain circles, thanks to the success of favourite son Justin Vernon of Bon Iver who rather than decamp for the bright lights of the big city with the onset of success has instead further entrenched himself in his hometown, building his April Base Studios just outside of the city and helping bring international attention to the city's [...]

Merge does the usual fantastic re-issue job with a second disc of b-sides and demo versions...... Also available as a bundle (including digital and vinyl), this period saw the band stretching out and moving from great-indie-band to just-plain-great . White Trash Heroes is one of the best final albums of any band. I'm imagining the demo versions [...]
