UNITED BLOOD FEST 2011: RE-RUN LINEUP LACKING IN SURPRISES

Though the year has only just begun, it's never too early to start speculating about and dissecting this year's hardcore festivals. The organizers behind the Black N Blue Bowl have already announced a date-May 28th-and are boasting of a lineup worthy of pants-shitting. Given last year's Supertouch and Yuppicide reunions as well as co-headliners Cro-Mags [...]

Britni Day's Top 10 Albums of 2010

Britni Day's Top 10 Albums of 2010 Seeing how our staff has distinct tastes and opinions on music, it would be nearly impossible for us to determine a 10 Albums of 2010 list as a single entity without excessive bloodshed. Therefore in the next two weeks, we'll be posting multiple Top 10 Albums of 2010 lists as determined by Loud Loop Press editors and contributors. Today, contributor Britni Day body slams us with her list for Top 10 Albums of 2010. Before we start, I'm sure my lovely Editor-In-Chief, Richard Giraldi, would like me to [...]

Ten of Swords – Dry Spell

Ten of Swords – Dry Spell In the Tarot, the Ten of Swords card appears to be a bit of bleak little fellow. At first, the card foretells of a relentless attack from life, but in the same breath speaks of how things can only get better from here. In Chicago, Ten of Swords is Adam Hitchell's newest project and tells the story of how he has braved the darkness and is finally seeing life's dawn in his first full album, Dry Spell . Hitchell utilized more than just his own expertise [...]

too soon for flowers (this week in mail order)

too soon for flowers (this week in mail order) The Dry Spells released their debut album, Too Soon For Flowers , in 2009, and after hearing just one song I ordered a copy of it. The Dry Spells might not be a name you know yet, but you might be familiar with some other projects they have been involved in such as Citay and Sonny and the Sunsets . After hearing the record for the first time all the way through I was still wondering how an album as powerful as this wasn't being talked about all over. While [...]

The Dry Spells

After hearing The Dry Spells' album Too Soon For Flowers it comes as little surprise that the band shares a good portion of its members with Citay. They balance folk and the kind smoldering 70's rock balladry that moved Stevie Nicks' shawl to action, bent strings in Pentangle and Fairport and has more recently been embraced by fellow Frisco-dwellers The Sandwitches. The band leans toward crisp-winded folk that opens up like an expanse of grey skies wrought with terrible, turbulent winds. Tim Green's production gives The Dry Spells the same cutting cleanness that he's imparted to Citay over [...]

Luxury Wafers Exclusive: The Dry Spells, live @ Chessvolt Studios with video and mp3s

Luxury Wafers Exclusive: The Dry Spells, live @ Chessvolt Studios with video and mp3s The Dry Spells are Tahlia Harbour on guitar and vocals, Warren Huegel on drums, Adria Otte on guitar, April Hayley on violin, tambourine and vocals and Diego Gonzalez on bass. California storm-lined folk-rockers, The Dry Spells (all members, or former members, of Citay ) originated as an empowered, all-female gig. Though they let some boys in, it's still a girls' band. Batwood kicks off with harmonies that evoke an approaching train, followed by a Salem-witchlike, shadowy folk story that steps up to their biggest violin-enhanced frenzy. Evangeline curiously folks along with a [...]

The Dry Spells release debut: Too Soon For Flowers

The Dry Spells release debut: Too Soon For Flowers The Dry Spells , with their layered electric and acoustic instrumentation, are one of the Bay Area's many contributions to the exploding psych-folk scene. Tracks like "Batwood" begin with plenty of rhythm and structure and devolve into a flurry of guitar riffs and violin. Other songs feature solid backbone and somber tambourine. Can tambourine be somber? This one is - under searing guitar melodies. The Dry Spells - "Lost Daughter" As with all self-respecting indie/folk/psych/rock/acoustic /electric/hybrid outfits, The Dry Spells feature one member with a biblical name, one beard and [...]

Finally Friday: Lost In Translation

Finally Friday: Lost In Translation Better late than never, right? First a disclaimer: I am sure that every tourist, no matter what their native language and wherever they go, encounters translations in other countries that display a lack of deep knowledge of their language. In every language there are subtle meanings that aren't explained in word-to-word translation dictionaries. So I am not making fun of our Chinese hosts, but we did enjoy the humor in these signs. The lovely painting above was hung in the ladies' restroom of a very nice vegetarian restaurant in Beijing, which I [...]
