Magnapop: Slowly me again

Magnapop getting back together isn't a big deal. Well, it was, when it happened in 2002, but as a reunion that's lasted nearly a decade, it's pretty much business as ususal. What is exciting, though, is the original line-up of Magnapop getting back together . Don't worry, it's not a Sugababes battle of the iterations; Sharon Mulvaney and David McNair are coming back for one gig, in aid of Criminal Records in Atlanta. Paste reports: According to Mulvaney: "The inspiration behind bringing back the original lineup was that back around when our first [...]

Imagine That

Imagine That And while we're on the subject of writers, why not spare some time for the existentialist charms of French Algerian author Albert Camus? Mark E. Smith named his legendary band after one of his books ( La Chute ), the Cure based their early classic Killing An Arab on his debut novel L'Étranger , while Magnapop mourned his tragic end in their Michael Stipe-produced Favorite Writer . "In Corsica the engines blew, your favorite writer died... in a car, in a crash, died in a fire, imagine that..." After the crash, which took place somewhere in [...]

"No help topics found?! You heap of garbage. You can't help me with that?" -- Tom, criticizing his unresponsive Macintosh computore "Without his tireless efforts, this show would not exist. Well, actually, it would exist, but it would really stink." -- Tom, praising the production work of David in D.C. "Yeah, the guy dances around and smokes cigarettes. Puts that, uh, clown makeup on in the mirror. Gets heart surgery." -- Tom, figuring out Fosse "What are you talking about ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?" -- Neil Mahoney, [...]

Five For Friday 14

Five For Friday 14 I can't believe another 2 months have gone by since I last updated! Not that anyone cares but I've moved AGAIN, hopefully I don't have to move for a while. The end of the year is rapidly approaching, hopefully I can get in a few more posts before the year ends, who knows if any of them will have any substance, but they will have covers. Here are Five covers of "Thirteen" by Big Star for Friday the 13th. [...]

THE MERRY MONTH OF MAY (Day 4) : SLOWLY, SLOWLY...

THE MERRY MONTH OF MAY (Day 4) : SLOWLY, SLOWLY... Fifteen years ago I went to New York with my best mate John and one of our intentions while we were there was to go and see a live band. Any band would do - we just wanted to go to a gig in the Big Apple. We were browsing in a record store in Greenwich Village one day where we spotted a small poster for a venue called Tramps where the ever cantankerous Mark E Smith and his latest line up of [...]

SXSW In Exactly Six Words

SXSW In Exactly Six Words I wasn't going to post anything SXSW related because, you know... I'm not there. But a friend sent me this link , and it's too good not to share. A writer for The Morning News listened to all of the official MP3s submitted by showcasing bands (763 of them) and wrote a six word review for every single one of them. The results are often hilarious. Some of my favorites (the [...]

Bloggers Who Matter? Pffft?

I'm kind of late on mentioning this, but I just wanted to congratulate Rich who runs the great blog Cable & Tweed on being named one of five Atlanta bloggers "who matter" by Creative Loafing . He definitely deserves the praise, as he's always on the ball when it comes to new bands in Atlanta and Athens. Plus the fact that he has no problem blogging about comic book movies and baseball among other things. To be honest, there wouldn't even be a Yellow [...]

Slowly, Slowly

Slowly, Slowly I'm not sure how I managed to do this blog for six months without mentioning Magnapop . We'll fix that right now... Hot Boxing is one of my favorite albums ever. It's one of only a handful of albums I could cite as not having a weak moment. Through fourteen songs and 43 minutes, its a non-stop thrill ride of unadulterated punk-pop gems. Today's monday morning b-side is one of three demos for the album that were included [...]

Magnapop

Magnapop I remember exactly (more or less) when I first heard Magnapop . A friend and I had just emerged from a Steven Wright concert in February 1993 at which I laughed harder than I ever have in my life, so hard I was sitting there thinking things like, "It's gotta be dangerous to be laughing this hard, the human body cannot tolerate this kind of strain, oh, well, what a way to go." More or less. Anyway, he had earlier spoken of these Athenians in glowing terms, and I was primed. Into the car, the request was heeded, ignition, [...]

Magnapop: Rare-ish Tracks

Magnapop: Rare-ish Tracks If happen to be in Atlanta this weekend, Grant Park should be calling your name. I've never been to the Summershade Festival , but it looks like they've arranged for a pretty impressive roster of music acts this year, especially on Saturday , when The Peakness , Silent Kids , and The Jupiter Watts play back-to back-to back on the Rock Stage. Headlining the day's festivities is Magnapop , a band near-and-dear to my heart. I'm pretty certain I saw them live more times in the '90s than I did any [...]
