Pretty much any time the Irish-punk band Flogging Molly plugs in to play, it's instantly St. Patrick's Day. As the real date approaches next week, the band has released Live at the Greek Theatre , a three-disc package documenting the band's high-energy set. Two discs of music and one DVD in a specially priced package is a pretty good deal from this rockin' band - true to form, the album kicks off with some slow balladry that explodes into the rollicking "The Likes Of You Again." And the energy never flags over the 22-song set: "Requiem For [...]

Once again, all the usual caveats apply. These are just my favorites, I make no definitive claims, and the whole project of ranking things is just a little bit silly. But it's also a lot of fun.

Except that I knew from the instant [...]

2005 war das Jahr, in dem Indie endgültig "in" wurde und die Tanzflächen eroberte. Die Zahl der jungen, hungrigen The-Bands war inzwischen Legion.

Und 2005 war auch das Jahr, in dem ich anfing, angesagte Indie-Musik zu hören. The Strokes, The Libertines und Franz Ferdinand waren zuvor noch an mir vorbei gegangen, aber mit den Debüts von Bloc Party und Maximo Park sprang ich sozusagen auf den [...]
