Het trio Fields of Forel komt uit San Antonio in Texas en de band maakt een soort muziek die de leden zelf niet eens weten te omschrijven, zeer opmerkelijk natuurlijk, omdat men bij het vergeven van de songtitels niet om inspiratie verlegen zat! Het geluid van Fields of Forel echter, kan misschien nog het best omschreven worden als melodieuze minimal soundscapes , dat tegen de post-rock aanschurkt en uitgevoerd door een heuse band! Zeer rustig, maar uiterst aangenaam een van de topalbums van dit jaar, wat mij betreft. Het album Sleep | [...]
"If distortion cranked to the max and blasted out with all the subtlety of an Uzi is your idea of a good time, then this second chunk of aural shrapnel from Austin, Texas outfit the Cherubs will have you grinning manically." - Kerrang Although they self-destructed two albums into their career, Austin, TX Cherubs left quite [...]

MP3 File Positively Thirteen O'Clock Thirteen O'Clock Theme For Psychotics HBR - 500 1966 Here's a nice garage instrumental from Texas band Positively Thirteen O'clock. This is the flip side of their cover of The Count Five's Psychotic Reaction.

I like random. Fusion 45, when it first launched, was all about random. Close your eyes, pick some records. Open your eyes, roll the dice, play some songs. I've heard it said the algorithms governing your iPod are not true random but that the numbers you can get from random.org are. I don't know but I believe. So I punched-in the parameters (10 numbers randomly chosen between 1 and 12,000) and this is what came up. (This is from my iTunes category specifically dedicated to the music I've acquired from [...]

I went to the sold-out Conor Oberst & the Mystic Valley Band show on Saturday night at Terminal 5. Conor & the MVB (and Ben Kweller and Rig 1) will be at Terminal 5 again tonight (Sunday). Now, there are a lot of reasons that I hate Terminal 5. It's too crowded, it's too big, it reeks, it's too crowded, it's in [...]

Zykos , an upbeat indie five-piece from Austin Texas, put forth this new EP in the last year, a follow up to two full length LPs released since their inception in 2003. The Keep it Light EP was produced by Mike McCarthy (Spoon/Trail of Dead producer) and the band has also managed to hook up with some noteworthy artists (Okkervil River, Explosions in the Sky, The Hold Steady) in the past few years on tour. If you still aren't sure where you've possibly heard the name, you may have spied a song on Okkervil [...]

D-town Gorillaz (anthem) Found this shit when I was trying to do some research on Lil Richard and Otu. This song is actually pretty dope. The video reminds me of the old Dre Dog videos he did back in like 95 with a VHS camcorder except this was done probably last year. Their is some great use of special effects with the green screen and the camerman wisely uses the automatic focus feature to constantly give the viewer the the experience of blurred vision. I was thoroughly impressed with the Mise-en-scene [...]

Why do the TMS head honchos insist on making the winning racers wear black cowboy hats and wielding 2 six-shooters? Don't they realize the rest of the country will think this is how all Texans dress at all times? Don't they realize how this sets us real Texans back? Don't they realize how people will develop misconceptions about Texans? I for one don't go around waving both my six-shooters above my head -practically ever. Typically I keep one in my saddlebag and the other in it's holster. Thin Lizzy - Cowboy Song [...]

well all of this talking made us sick , proclaims joey siara of the henry clay people . clearly preferring to let their music do the talking, the band has a hard-earned reputation as "the most intoxicated band in austin" for their chaotic and high energy shows. this november, their new lp for cheap or for free will be out on autumn tone records , an album that's such rolling, raucous fun you'd be forgiven for thinking it was recorded live. in "rock and roll has lost its teeth", the band saunters down the shady lane [...]
I'll be the first to admit that I've picked up a few albums because of rather superficial reasons. I grabbed The Cure's Head on the Door because the cover was cool. I bought Faye Wong's album Sky because she looked so hot on the cover. I discovered The Redwalls because [...]

Howdy gang, it's time for our weekly review of the happenings in Dillon. When we last left the home of the Panthers, Tami was fueding with the boosters, Smash was heading to A&M, Saracen was emancipating himself, and Riggins and Lila were having a good ol' time at the local fancy eatin' place. More fun awaits us in the land of the Alamo Freeze and Applebee's after the jump We open up with the Riggins boys and Billy's got "some business" to take care of in a local trailer park. Considering the guy who [...]
