Frank Yang A little time off can be nice, but as much as I was enjoying the very unusual but welcome two-week break from show leading up to SXSW this week, it was also making me a bit antsy. Thank goodness for the Young Prisms in-store at the new Kensington Market location of Sonic Boom, in advance of their show that evening at The Drake. It would give me a quick, convenient way of scratching the live music itch and also let me pick up some LP sleeves. Everybody wins. I [...]

Justin Hollar I had actually forgotten how weird Alpinisms , the 2008 debut from New York's School Of Seven Bells was. It basically inverted the balance of pop-to-experimentalism of the Deheza sisters' former outfit On! Air! Library! and made itself it much more accessible than O!A!L!'s self-titled effort but was still willing to forgo the pop in parts to play with textures, exotic sounds and the interesting harmonies that their twin frontwomen could create. 20102s Disconnect From Desire was [...]

Sugar's Copper Blue was such a perfect, noise-pop album that cemented Bob Mould as a genius. When 1993's Beaster EP came out I was hoping for more hooky sing-a-longs, but instead Sugar delivered a heavier, denser album.

I had no intention of crowd surfing, but a stranger next to me in the pit offered to put me up and he looked [...]

Throw some live music by Kelli Schaefer, Ancient Heat, and Napalm Beach on that party and you have a rager. COURTNEY FERGUSON CURSIVE, [...]

Bob Mouldin johtaman Sugar-yhtyeen syyskuussa 1992 julkaistu debyyttialbumi Copper Blue oli heti ilmestyttyään valtaisa menestys. Mouldin ja Lou Giordanon (mm.
