Ike reilly and Shooter Jennings - war on terror and drugs

Lollapalooza 2010 shines

Lollapalooza 2010 shines Lollapalooza took over the massive lakeside green of Grant Park last weekend for its sixth year as a stationary festival in Chicago. I was unable to get myself to The Prairie State, and sent two talented writer-photographers to cover it for Fuel/Friends: Dainon and Kathleen . I ached with jealousy at their text and cell-phone pic updates all weekend long since it sounded like an incredible lineup. Let them tell you about what rocked at this year's Lollapalooza. Dainon: The [...]

Ike Reilly Week in Philly

The Ike Reilly Assassination, a searing , combustible mix of the DIY punk rock of '77 and the classic rock of Dylan and Springsteen, went three years between Philadelphia gigs and by the end of the week they'll have played 4 Philly shows in three months. Lucky us. Ike Reilly's current media blitz is in support of Hard Luck Stories , one the best releases of 2010 (and 2009 too, since it was a digital only release in Novemeber 2009). Reilly is, quite simply, one of the best current songwriters working, and he's still getting better. Just [...]

Day 33 - Ike Reilly's "Good Work" Video

Ike Reilly - "Good Work (If You Can Get It)" Official Video
If there is an algorithm to calculate artistic merit versus commercial clout, Ike Reilly would score somewhere between a nonillion and a vigintillion. Reilly has been making gritty, spastic, hook-laden classics for a decade now in relative anonymity, except for a fanatical few... there are no casual Ike Reilly fans. I just can't figure out why there are not more of them. Earlier this year we got the latest cd, Hard Luck Stories , and it's easily one of the year's best. Today brings an honest-to-goodness music video for "Good Work (If You Can Get It)", a [...]

Hard Luck Stories Out Today!

Hard Luck Stories Out Today! Ike Reilly is a long-time Teenage Kicks favorite. He returns today with Hard Luck Stories , ten songs about sex, drugs, returning vets, fucked up losers, fucked up winners, sex and drugs. Drawing on Dylan's deep, twisted phrasing and the feral gut punch of prime punk rock, Reilly is a master storyteller who's bringing back two things sadly missing in rock and roll - humor and swagger. The dude is a fist fight wrapped up in a three minute explosion of rock and roll, complete with pulsing, soaring chouses that imbed themsleves deep - you may [...]

{MP3} Ike Reilly (w/Shooter Jennings) – "Hard Luck Stories" (Rock Ridge Music, Nov. 24)

{MP3} Ike Reilly (w/Shooter Jennings) – "Hard Luck Stories" (Rock Ridge Music, Nov. 24) Ike Reilly is a mid-western institution. He's flirted with rock radio fame on WXRT in Chicago, he's been critically acclaimed, as well as being bar band friendly and jock approved. His new record is out Nov. 24 and is titled Hard Luck Stories . It features a bunch of special guests including a high school chorus (Glee anyone?!), blues legend Barrel House Chuck and Johnny Hickman and David Lowery of Cracker. The song below features rebel country "star" Shooter Jennings and is a pretty cool duet on love, lust, sex and all things related to terror (kids) and [...]

Ike Reilly's Hard Luck Stories Drops 11/24!

Ike Reilly's Hard Luck Stories Drops 11/24! In 2009, waiting until the official release date to hear an album is a quaint, outdated notion akin to waiting to get the morning paper to see if the Phillies magic number still hasn't changed. With bit torrents, advance leaks, facebook, twitter, my space, text alerts and occasionally even the artist's own website, it's impossible not to hear a new release before the street date. But then there's Ike Reilly – a fiercely independent singer-songwriter who combines the snarl and abrasiveness of punk rock with power pop's joyous celebration of melody. Along with The Hold Steady, Gaslight Anthem [...]

Tuesday Music Roundup

Tuesday Music Roundup So last Sunday in San Francisco I picked up this random $1 pin at the Noise Pop Expo (in addition to a cool business card holder for my forthcoming cool business cards, and I waited too long to buy this gorgeous necklace and it was gone when I came with cash. Sad). Anyways. The pin on my bag strap now, which you can sort of make out over there in a bad cell phone snap, is a sensitive graphite rendering of Patrick Swayze circa Roadhouse [...]

Seriously creep you out

Seriously creep you out Nevermind the ghosts and goblins and black cats -- our local paper had a freakish feature yesterday in honor of Halloween, listing a whole bunch of real-life things that grown-ups can unabashedly be scared of. Some of the tamer ones were things like drug-resistant infections in hospitals, mountain lion attacks, political apathy, avalanches, houses built unwittingly on some of Colorado's many miles of old mine shafts. But these two parasites took the cake on a sliding scale of creepy crawly eeeeeew -gross. For a special Halloween treat [not for the faint of heart]: [...]
