On the album Another Side Of Bob Dylan , in the song "My Back Pages," Dylan sings, " But I was so much ol der then/I'm younger than that now ." True, that was a kiss off to the "protest songs" thing he'd been pigeonholed with and wanted to escape, but on his next album, he not only abandoned that particular stance, but stylistically began embracing rock and moving away from the acoustic folk that had dominated his music up to that point. In the song, he words his "declaration of intent" [...]
The Dimes release their sophomore album The King Can Drink The Harbor Dry on December 1st.Hailing (like so many other good bands seem to at the moment) from Portland, the album is hard to pin down, mixing as it does folk, pop and Byrds style country rock to remarkably good effect. The songwriting is smooth, pastoral even, and it overflows with gorgeous melodies and lullabies that sooth and calm

The hardest part about blogging is the endless barrage of new music—burnout is hard to avoid, and when I'm having an off day, everything sounds like something I've heard before. And then a record comes over the threshold like this one. Although there's some Death Cab for Cutie, some Beatles, and some light folk familiarity here (think Bon Iver or Iron and Wine), "The King Can Drink The Harbor Dry" by The Dimes is at its essence a wholly original record. Maybe that's why I found it so difficult to review. There's [...]

Put the tea kettle on and break out the map of Boston when you listen to this album. The lyrics will make more sense, you'll have something to read while The Dimes play in the background, and you'll be caffeinated enough to not be lulled to sleep by inoffensive melodies.

Jennifer Lopez ft. Pitbull " Fresh Out The Oven " (prod. by The Neptunes ): So I'm seeing this cut being billed as "Lola" ft. Pitbull. I remember, when J.Lo and the Geico gecko got together, his name for her was Lola . because of that, I can't call her that in good conscience. Is Jennifer channelling her inner Sasha Fierce ? Who knows. What I do know is that 1) this isn't really any different than what she had been doing, and 2) why does [...]

Britney Spears " 3 " (prod. by Max Martin ): Brit goes in on some club-happy shit this go round. I actually mess with Britney when she's not doing the usual - I'm not saying I'm blasting this in my headphones, but I appreciate the steps outside of her box (or whatever box people thing she belongs in) and does something different. This is taken from her forthcoming singles collection . Shouts to Team Supreme .

Het debuutalbum van The Dimes , The Silent Generation, stond in 2007 in mijn eindejaarslijstje. Heerlijke melodieuze liedjes die vooral doen denken aan The Beatles en The Shins . En de band uit Portland, Oregon vertelt mooie verhalen. 24 november verschijnt het tweede album, The King Can Drink the Harbor Dry. Damrell's Fire is het openingsnummer.
