Video: Tom Morello with Ben Harper – Save The Hammer For The Man

Tom Morello is no stranger to the world of using music in the context of social and political activism, both as the guitarist for Rage Against The Machine and by releasing folkie, Woody Guthrie-inspired protest tunes under the moniker The Nightwatchman . Earlier this year, Morello released his third solo effort World Wide Rebel Songs , an album whose cover is a nod to Phil Ochs' Gunfight At Carnegie Hall . For World Wide Rebel Songs, Morello eschewed the guy and guitar approach of his previous efforts, in favor of a full backing band. Morello [...]

Amos Lee – Keep It Loose, Keep It Tight

Amos Lee – Keep It Loose, Keep It Tight Amos Lee - Keep It Loose, Keep It Tight "and sometimes we forget what we got who we are, and who we are not" I like soulful songs, I do try to be more diverse with this blog, but you probably can tell by now what my particular taste it. I love to have a good time, and go out and dance of course, so you'll see a good share of dance/electro tunes, but my heart is most at ease with the slow tunes. Even for bands that don't focus on the [...]

10.01.11 | Ben Harper | Terminal 5

Hoping to snag a good spot to see Ben Harper, I arrived early enough to catch the opener, Grace Woodroofe. I immediately regretted this decision once I had procured a spot and was able to watch her "perform". Deceived by her deep mature voice, her stage antics were more age appropriate to that of a teenager singing into a hairbrush in her bedroom. Not knowing the proper etiquette for a musician on stage, she chose to imitate the idea of the rock star, by thrashing about with her hair covering her face, and then immediately realizing that this was impractical [...]

Tonight's Concert Picks: The Album Leaf at Johnny Brenda's, Shellac at Union Transfer

Tonight's Concert Picks: The Album Leaf at Johnny Brenda's, Shellac at Union Transfer The Album Leaf is a solo project founded by Jimmy LaValle, whose musical style emulates many of its Sub Pop counterparts. The California-based post-rock band's latest album, 20102s A Chorus Of Storytellers , is a mellow affair that thrives on synth, ambient noise, and occasional acoustic guitar. Each song has a decently long build up and instrumental layering that should intrigue any fan of the post-rock genre; the lyrics, on the other hand, are rarely complicated (lines such as "One day we began/To fly again/And now we start/To fly and then" are pretty much par for the [...]

LMB NYC: This Week's Concert Calendar – Sept 26 – Oct 2

LMB NYC: This Week's Concert Calendar – Sept 26 – Oct 2 Tom Hamilton & American Babies | photo by WHITperson This week in NYC Live Music is an interesting one, with a couple notable heavy-hitters and a few solid small-club shows... After their Saturday night slot as the musical guest on SNL , Radiohead decided to stick around town for two, now-sold-out shows at the Roseland Ballroom; definitely a tough ticket due to the venue size, so here's hoping you were one of the lucky NYers who scored tickets. If not, there are plenty of [...]
