No One's Lonley, with Marty Willson Piper's Night Jar

If you've been following this blog, you already know how much I love The Church, aka - the band that never released a bad album (well, Gold Afternoon Fix wasn't as good as the others but it has its moments). The main reason that this band sounds fresh and exciting after all these years, is [...]

The Church - Past, Present and Perfect tour

The Church - Past, Present and Perfect tour Good reviews are coming out for Australian band The Church's new Past Present and Perfect tour, where the band is playing THREE complete albums, each from a different decade: "Untitled #23" (2009), "Priest=Aura" (1992), and "Starfish" (1988). From the recent show in Los Angeles came this awesome review : "Following an intermission, the Church returned for the second hour-long set, centered on 1992's Priest=Aura, an esoteric collection that became a band and fan favorite despite modest sales. This time, the music did all the talking. Audience members [...]

The Church: Live Photos from "Future Past Perfect" Show at BB King's, NYC 2-17-11

The Church at BB King's February 17th 2011 - Hotel Womb
This past Thursday, The Church brought their "Future Past Perfect" tour to a full house at B.B. King's in Times Square. The concept of the evening was that the band would play the following albums in their entirety: Untitled #23 (2009), Priest=Aura (1992), and Starfish (1988). Over the last few years, some indie and alt-rock bands have played one of their classic albums from start to finish, this is the first time that I've heard of any band taking this concept to such a grand scale.

The Church - "Deep in the Shallows: The Classic Singles Collection" CD Review (Second Motion Records)

The Church - "Deep in the Shallows: The Classic Singles Collection" CD Review (Second Motion Records) STREAM : The Church - Live on KEXP 2/8/11 There was a guy on my hall in college who ran out to buy R.E.M.'s Fables of the Reconstruction right when it came out and the only song he would play was "Driver 8" over and over (and over) again. This is the sort of person that I think singles compilations are designed for. When Pink Floyd won their court case blocking iTunes from selling single song downloads, David Stubbs lamented in The Independent that [...]

The Church - "Heyday" CD Review (Second Motion Records)

The Church - "Heyday" CD Review (Second Motion Records) DOWNLOAD : The Church - "Tantalized" (free download on Amazon.com) Aside for the bad 80's mullets on the cover photo, Heyday is a major leap forward from Seance . This is the first disc that sounds like The Church were working as a cohesive unit and eight of the disc's original ten tracks were co-written by all four members of the band. As an interesting footnote, Steve Kilbey co-wrote one track, "Youth Worshiper", with then girlfriend Karin Jansson who later co-wrote "Under the Milky Way" [...]

The Church - "Seance" CD Review (Second Motion Records)

The Church - "Seance" CD Review (Second Motion Records) The Church's third disc, Seance , was released in May 1983 and, while there are some stand-out tracks, the overall sound of the disc is a step in the wrong direction. This time out, Steve Kilbey wrote all of the tracks, aside for the glorious space-rock jam "Travel By Thought". The band self-produced the record and utilized engineer Nick Launay for the final mixes. While the band continues to move yet further toward the textured, neo-psychedelic sound of their later discs, the mixing left the disc sounding flat and the dated "80's" [...]

The Church - "The Blurred Crusade" CD Review (Second Motion Records)

The Church - "The Blurred Crusade" CD Review (Second Motion Records) The Church's second disc, The Blurred Crusade , was released in March 1982 and the songwriting seems more focused than on Of Skins and Heart . This is the first disc where other band members outside of Steve Kilbey contributed to the songwriting and that may have played a role as the band's music moves further toward the neo-psychedelic sound of their later discs. Even as the band embraces more of an atmospheric melancholia across different track on this disc, they haven't fully given up the ringing Byrds-ish guitars or the psychedelic-tinged post/power-punk sounds [...]

The Church - "Of Skins and Heart" CD Review (Second Motion Records)

The Church - "Of Skins and Heart" CD Review (Second Motion Records) To mark the 30th anniversary of the band, The Church started ambitious campaign last fall to reissue their back catalog (via Second Motion Records). All of the reissues come with bonus tracks and new liner notes from Marty Willson-Piper. As most of The Church's discs were previously out of print in the US, these reissues should strike a positive chord with both new and long-time fans and the digital remastering does a wonderful job of bringing out all the dimensions of the band's music. Starting with the band's first disc, Of Skins and [...]

Two From The Church: Steve Kilbey & Marty Willson-Piper

Two From The Church: Steve Kilbey & Marty Willson-Piper There are few active bands that have released material as often and consistently as The Church. They have averaged an album every year or so since their 1981 debut, releasing over 20 albums and a handful of EPs over the span of 28 years. While it is impressive that the core members have remained throughout the entire duration and they continue to work well and often together, it is their consistency that has allowed The Church to be widely considered one of the best Australian bands of the past two decades. Western fans are likely to associate The Church with [...]

OT: 365 Days of Song Project: April -- Part Two

As I said in my last post, I'm having to divide this in two... Saturday, April 19, 2008 My cousin has come from West Virginia to visit my grandmother because chances are very good that she won't go home again until we take her casket to be buried next to my grandfather's. Her health has been failing for a long time and the prognosis is not promising. I hadn't seen my cousin since before Cecily's born, since before his father, my uncle, died. [...]

Record Store Day

The Duke Spirit - Cuts Across The Land
This Saturday, April 19, is Record Store Day . Why should you take this opportunity to support your local owned independent record store? Not surprisingly, Nick Hornby says it much better than I ever could... "Yes, yes, I know. It's easier to download music, and probably cheaper. But what's playing on your favourite download store when you walk into it? Nothing, that's what. Who are you going to meet in there? Nobody. Where are the [...]

Luscious Ghost I love a good theme, so in honor of every child's favorite holiday, all of this month's monday morning b-sides will be loosely Halloween related.
