Guitarist Dean Wareham, drummer Damon Krukowski and bassist Naomi Yang began playing together during their time as students at Harvard University. The trio was heavily influenced by The Velvet Underground, Joy Division and Jonathan Richman. When Galaxie 500 was first formed, Damon Krukowski didn't own a drum kit, so he borrowed one from his Harvard classmate Conan O'Brien, who'd bought a kit but had recently given up playing it. This drum kit can be heard on many of Galaxie 500's early recordings. Thruston Moore considered Today as "the best guitar album from 1988". Melody Maker called the LP [...]
I know alot of other sites do semi-regular covers features, and so far I've been resisting the urge. Now, in the steamy home stretch of summer, I fear the tension between me and cover versions is just too great to deny. I can't take all these longing gazes, sleepless nights, and petty arguments springing from nowhere, any longer. While common decency won't let me do this on a regular basis, I need a release. So here, in an abundant, unthinking burst I give you more cover love than you can possibly handle. Hopefully things won't [...]
Hi all. Slowly easing my way back in. There will be some changes here. Going forward, you'll probably see less frequent posting from me; I just can't spend all my free time listening to and writing about music. I may even talk about some of my other interests from time to time. And hopefully we'll see more contributions from the boys over there. Joe's moving down to Austin and has promised that his new set-up will allow him to play a bigger role. Fingers crossed, Joe! Isn't [...]
This is it, the big one. The motherload. I've skilfully put it last to give me some time to collect suggestions, but I can put it off no longer. The US of A is the daddy when it comes to the rockin' and the rollin' and the hippin' and the hoppin'... It's produced so much great music, and innovated in so many fields. I continue to press my point that British bands tend to do things better than their Stateside counterparts (cf. Morrissey - America Is Not The World ), but it can't be denied that America is the [...]

The language of broken hearts needs no translation
Damon And Naomi, out of Damon And Naomi, and once of Galaxie 500, are about to launch the first in a series of albums, the International Sad Hits. The concept is simultaneously high-falutin' - all four artists are united by a shared common thread to their Altaic languages - and as basic as it comes - a love of melancholy. The acts are Turkey's Fikret Kizilok, Korea's Kim Doo Soo and Tomokawa Kazuki and Mikami Kan, a pair of Japanese artists. Kizilok died in 2001, after a thirty-year career of mixing western rock with [...]
Welcome to the Sonic Cathedral
I know I've mentioned it a couple of times on this blog already, but heck, here's another. What with the 'shoegazing revival' in full swing, it's appropriate . And it's a bit of an odd one too. A club that you can't really dance at. More like sway gently. Or nod. Or look at the floor a bit. Yep, it's London's first, but surely not last, club dedicated to everything early 90s layered guitar and slightly ethereal, and other music of this ilk. I went to Sonic Cathedral for the first time for the [...]

The 4th...
So I hope everyone is or will be having a good Independence Day. I won't be doing much myself that I know of. We used to have a fireworks display, however funding and whatnot became a problem and now no one puts on here in my small hometown. The worst part about that is we neither have a fireworks display or nor can we even set off fireworks, legally at least. So really, it's almost like living in a town that doesn't acknowledge the holiday. Regardless, that won't stop me from enjoying some excellent [...]
