There was once a time – I can vaguely, if somewhat begrudgingly recall – at which I would feel an almost ritualistic compulsion to tune into the vexatious tones of Zane Lowe as he unveiled the Reading and Leeds line ups. In that convoluted way of his, he would spin a seemingly unending yarn of hyperbolic fervour invariably over the top of No One Knows irrespective of, or perhaps even oblivious to, whether Queens of the Stone Age were to be announced or not and, in truth, it worked – it exacerbated the impatience, prior to his excitable babbling of [...]

#35: The Head and the Heart @ Forecastle [Original Post] I'd heard a song or two by Head and the Heart going into their show at Forecastle, but I'll admit that I was really just seeing them because there wasn't a lot of competition for their time slot at Forecastle. But just like what happens [...]

Jim Reid of Jesus and Mary Chain: photo by Michael Ligon Hope everyone had a great Christmas as I did with family and relatives. Continuing in my quest to get up photos from shows earlier in the year that I haven't had a chance to get up yet, it's a funny coincidence that on Christmas Day, I'm up now to the Jesus and Mary Chain show that I'd attended at the Phoenix Concert Theatre back on August 3rd. I'd been wanting to scratch them off my bucket list for so [...]

Last year, I decided to write about my favorite concert moments . Because I was most likely lazy and didn't really want to provide much context, I wrote about them in awards format. It's now 2012, and I am still kind of lazy, so I will do this once again. I even used the same image as last year. In terms of the last few years, 2012 was probably the year I attended the least amount of concerts. Maybe it was because I spent six weeks out of the country. Maybe I suffered from concert-itis. I [...]

I'm not entirely sure that the brothers Reid should have played the blues. They were always better at pop music than at rock. The Little Red Rooster guitar riff sounds wrong for their acid soaked style. They needed to get further away from the source, and go full out for the fugue state drugged up wide-eyed stare, channel a bit of that early '80s disinterested heroin chic. That said, this does have a completely brilliant sonic palette, with some terrific squeaky wheel feedback. Interesting stuff from their 1993 collection The Sound of [...]

Lo primero que uno nota al ver el video que presenta el proyecto Beautiful Noise es que, a diferencia de muchos otros en Kickstarter , éste parece tener invitados de lujo y material que en verdad demuestra que hay una muy buena cantidad de trabajo detrás del documental que intentan fondear. Básicamente, Beautiful Noise se centra en la historia de My Bloody Valentine , Cocteau Twins y The Jesus and Mary Chain y en cómo estas bandas influenciaron a muchas otras a pesar de nunca haber vendido [...]
