Some of Lawrence, Kansas' greatest musicians have joined together to from a special supergroup: Lasorda. This new indie pop band features Suzannah Johannes, Matt Pryor (The Get Up Kids), Nate Harold (fun., The Honorary Title), Dustin Kinsey (The New Amsterdams), Mike Strandberg (Kevin Devine and the Goddamn Band) and Josh Adams (Ghosty).

Although Oklahoma City lost to the Heat in the 2012 NBA Finals, and fucking LeBron got his ring, I wanted to make this mix to celebrate my favorite basketball team. So this is for the scoring champ KD, the block king Serge Ibaka, yung fashion himself Russy Westbrook, the Swizz defender Thabo Sefolosha, King Tut aka Kendrick Perkins, secret weapon Nick Collison, and everyone who makes the Thunder the best team in the NBA (fuck the outcome, I believe this) and the most fun team to watch IN THE WORLD! Check out all 15 tracks on NRBW/OKC Thunder's June [...]
Dearest bands, I love you. I've been saying to myself and now I'm saying this out loud (again). Where the hell are all the good guitar bands !? Bands I beg you please don't use a drum machine unless it's a demo and you're desperate. So for now say hello to Dot Dash and Cursive (saddle creek) who have actual musicians. These are Bands who know how to craft a song and play said instruments. Spark> Flame > Embers > Ash by [...]
Photo by Jeremy D. Larson Most musicians touring in support of a solo album would play exclusively, or at least primarily, new material from that album. Matt Pryor is a man who apparently does not feel constrained by these conventions. Whether it was because he knew people would want to hear standards from his two popular bands, The Get Up Kids and The New Amsterdams, or because by the time the tour rolled into Chicago on its second-to-last stop, he was maybe getting tired of playing material from his recent May Day , Pryor played [...]
Did Get Up Kids singer Matt Pryor know that Something to Write Home About would go on to be such an important album? Anybody who says that they were making an "important" album is either an idiot or an asshole. You're just trying to make a good record. How it's interpreted throughout history is not up to you at all. It's completely up to everyone else. I don't know that what we did is important. I've been told by lots of people that they like it and [...]
It's a wonder that May Day even exists. There's the time factor: Matt Pryor's most well-known band, the Get Up Kids, recently reunited and released an album last year (one of GTI's Top 30 albums of 2011 ). He's got his long running "side" project the New Amsterdams, as well as that band's alter-ego, the kid-friendly Terrible Twos, and his time spent playing acoustic shows for the "Where's the Band?" tour with the frontmen of Saves the Day, Bayside, the Early November, Thrice, and Into It Over It. And amid all of that activity, Pryor is no [...]
No sooner had Matt Pryor finished a victory lap behind the Get Up Kids' comeback album, last year's "There Are Rules," than he released his second solo album. "May Day" is a folksy tour through the heart and mind of the beloved Kansan, revealing him as somebody who still believes in the game of love but who's been around enough to know the outcomes. As with the rest of his estimable catalog with TGUK, the New Amsterdams and his kids' music incarnation the Terrible Twos, there's no shortage of hooks on "May Day." Or smart couplets. Or sticky [...]

Once Lost; Now Found, Rival Schools.
Few records aided in moulding a generation-defining aural identity as did Rival Schools'  United By Fate of 2001. Alongside Thursday's Full Collapse and The Get Up Kids' Something to Write Home About , it was more or less one third of the very genesis of emo and whatever your take on the now widely reviled genre, that ain't to be sniffed at down many nostrils in the same way that United By Fate was, to my ears, one of the defining albums of my formative years. It was therefore pretty dispiriting that [...]

Le dieci canzoni degli anni 90 (secondo me) – ale-bu 4/5
Prima erano i pezzi che ascoltavo negli anni '90. Dopo le canzoni più belle degli anni '90. Poi ancora le canzoni degli anni '90 a cui sono più legato anche se le ho scoperte dopo gli anni '90. Quindi hnon ci ho capito più niente di come dovevo farlo, ho tagliato la testa al toro e ho scelto così come veniva tra tutti i miei CD, vinili e MP3. Che sono tanti, visto che ancora oggi la musica di quel decennio la fa da padrona nella mia libreria. Però le cassette non le ho guardate, quindi sicuramente avrò mancato qualcosa. [...]
