I get a lot of music sent to me on a weekly basis from PR folks, record companies, etc and don't always have time to listen to everything. Thank the hipster gods of all things electro-rock that I clicked on the track I am about to give you now as a free download. If you know a girl who listens to "metal music" then have fun with this. It's not metal, but it takes the cliched idea of a metal chick and runs with it. I must have played this song 15 times in a row after hearing [...]
The stars seemed to align in the 120 year old neighborhood of Brownes Addition in the fair city of Spokane. We had downright miserable weather just a few days prior, but with the 5th Annual Elkfest well underway, it was bright, shining, and thunderous with activity as the big night came upon the thousands of locals who would flock to the neighborhood known for it's classic homes turned into kitchenette apartments and friendly bungalows. With an out of town headliner for the evening I was a bit skeptical of the turn [...]

![Strength: Mind-Reader [Album Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3000964_lg.jpg)
Strength is a group that is so unburdened by formalities that it's almost unfathomable. There style is beyond formative, it's a splendid blast from the past unlike much of anything you have heard in well over 20 years. It's like the reincarnation of Daft Punk with vocal duties from the likes of Prince. Mind-Reader , the band's sophomore release, is a gentle smash to the throat, and a kick in the pants that will undoubtedly make you want boogie and thrash the night away. These Euro-trash [...]
Top shelf beat here from the Megatron Don; The seemingly perpetually addled with label problems Saigon pitching in with some choice rhymes. The feel Just Blaze has for the rhythm, cadence, & diction in the flows of the rappers he works with (particularly Saigon) really sets his production work apart. Saigon - Strength (Prod. Just Blaze) Purchase / Info Rating: 8.2
Strength video for "Metal" from the new album "Mind-Reader." Directed by Benjamin Brucker.
What a drag! Starfucker brings out the danceable glam beats and the blonde wigs. More like it: LIVE REVIEW: The Octopus Project @ Music Hall of Williamsburg 10/8/10 PICTURE THIS: Frank Black @ GAMH 8-18-10 PICTURE THIS: Widespread Panic @ Fox Theatre 10-16
It's hard to listen to local synth-disco trio Strength without breaking a sweat. Yeah, the band's love jams are sexy and kinky and silly, but they're also totally sincere—when Strength want you to dance, you dance. So it's fitting that the clip for "Metal," the first single from its new album, Mind-Reader , sees the band busting a few slinky moves. To be honest I'm not quite sure why singer Baily Winters is wearing a witch hat, but with Strength you just take everything as it is and realize that there's a little humor built in to these guys' [...]
Unless you've had your head lodged firmly up your bum you'll have noticed we are having a party . And if you haven't bought a ticket yet you better get your click on HERE because they are selling like cakes that were baked in the center of the sun. In spirit of said party I'm giving you a funk filled nu-disco number to wet your New Jack based appetite, as that will be the order of play for some of the aforementioned shenanigans. So this slick piece of rock funk (I hate that [...]
Strength is a high-energy, urban, vocal disco trio from Portland, Oregon. Consisting of John Zeigler on keyboards, Patrick Morris on guitars on beat programming and Bailey Winters on vocals, the band captures the elusive magic of late 70s / early 80s in their carefully crafted electro dance numbers. Strength - Wilderness (Whole Sick Crew Remix) Their 2006 debut album has already become a collector's item amongst fans and Strength's ever-growing followers base is now getting ready for their new full length, expected later this year. Ahead of the new album's release, [...]
Considering how late it was when the Mississippi Studios doors opened for the late edition of Tuesday's Starfucker extravaganza, we can assume that the early show must have run considerably long. And since a party that overstays its welcome without the benefit of alcohol must be one hell of a shindig, expectations were justifiably high when opener XDS (formerly Experimental Dental School) finally took the stage. Having seen Starfucker before – and regular melophobe visitors will presumably be familiar as well, either vicariously through our previous coverage or directly, via [...]
Ding Dong's dancehall is not quite reggae, not quite hip-hop and not quite rave.
On his side again. What a moving speech. No international news channel broadcast this (except for a tiny bit in BBC International). They should have really. This message of change should've gotten across to the world because it's not just an American issue, it's an international issue. When the world listen to one of the most loved public figures the world over say such things they might realize that this is a issue of concern and look around them. Hate, in any form, should never be accepted. One's beliefs shouldn't curtail another person's road to happiness. Anyway, getting too preachy [...]
The festival was insanely good (even though I missed much of what was amazing about it, including Deelay Ceelay 's performance and Jeffrey Jerusalem' s performance). There are a few interesting photo reviews of the first two days over on the Willamette Week's blog you can check out until Ben's (unpromising) photo set is put up. Explode Into Colors. The headliners were all great [...]
Jesus. Maybe? Bobby Brown? Unlikely. Michael Jackson? Yes. Anyway, the title is tepid and not what was expected. It should have been a proclamation. Some big statement about coming back and standing out. I mean, if Ashanti can call her album The Declaration then Whitney Houston can do much better, for reals. I Look To You doesn't quite deliver liked Undefeated . The supposed first single, which I am sure is just a teaser, is already being hailed as a Leona Lewis b-side. The title is overawing - "I Didn't Know My Own Strength" - [...]
The album finally got a release date from Arista Records officials. It's slated for a September 1, 2009 release. No word on the title yet, but the one that has been floating around is Undefeated . But, wikipedia is now reporting that it will be called The Wait Is Over . The latter is a bit boring. The first single is called "I Didn't Know My Own Strength" and that sounds just like the perseverance ditty that she needs. It's weird that it's also coming out around the same time as Mariah Carey's Memoirs Of An Imperfect [...]
Some say under different circumstances, The Alarm would have become the biggest rock band in the world. Some say that the only thing standing in their way was this other band called U2. While I can see the comparison, I can also safely say that The Alarm wasn't just a pale copy of the Irish band. The Alarm had their own voice and style to deliver. [...]
