This week's round up of the tracks I haven't had the space to post... Band Of Skulls From: Southampton, United Kingdom When I read that Band of Skulls were blues rockers my heart sank but then I heard Bruises and my heart soared, it's a solid slab of melodic rock which deserve a special place in your ears.

In The Red, 2011 Anyone who's heard the Coachwhips ' 2003 album, Bangers Versus Fuckers , knows the impossibility of overstating John Dwyer's ability to craft some of the most abrasively over-driven recordings in the history of rock n' roll. That band's penchant for playing three chord blues progressions at a blistering pace through a deregulated analog soundboard could blow the doors off anything the "THE" bands of the early 2000s could ever muster while simultaneously jarring loose your eardrums and leaving you dangerously disoriented . Though basic, that formula contained an [...]
Stealers Wheel - Stuck in the Middle with You (1972): Tonight's show features "Stuck in the Middle with You," the classic tune from 1972 by all-but-forgotten Irish Folk/Rolkers Stealers Wheel . The song was a planned success and peaked in 1973 at #6 on Billboard's Top 100 charts. Ironically, it is a rebuff of corporate practices, shrouded in bubblegum folk/pop, designed to achieve chart success by parodying Bob Dylan's vocal styling. Most of you will remember the scene from Reservoir Dogs that continues to re-ignite interest in [...]
01 Thee Oh Sees :: Tomorrow I'm going up to London to see SF's magical, mighty Oh Sees and I couldn't be more excited. Having seen them twice already this year, I am keen to make it to four Oh Sees shows on the year, starting tomorrow at Plan B in Brixton and then later [...]
It's finally that time, y'all and we'll start rolling out all our end of year coverage and this year we're starting with my top 10 gigs of the year. I saw a lot of great music this year, and practically no shitty music, which I think is a decided improvement upon 20092s showing. 2010 brought [...]

Es muy complicado comenzar a hablarles de lo que será el Mty Mx, en un principio les podemos decir que se trata de un festival que agrupará diversas corrientes de música independiente durante tres... Visita www.rockandradio.net
variations on a theme? not om. not hadyn. just that i've got a pile of this-kind-of-thing mooching desk space right now; from the ever reliable in the red , is john dwyers newest as thee oh sees ; slightly surprisingly from de stijl , the (overly?) perky pens record; and the vivian girlsish rocket-spunk conciseness of brilliant colors on slumberland . all good in their own way. but [...]
Pierced Arrows Pierced Arrows , the reincarnation of Dead Moon had no trouble in dishing out their dirty, noise rock to the Maxwell's crowd this past Saturday, October 10th. The trio did what they do best, which is plow through a set of angst [...]
Thee Oh Sees Peanut Butter Oven Thee Oh Sees Can You See? Let us speak frankly now, because we're all friends here, and because I care... Now, with all due respect to Ian Svenonius , his contribution to popular music, and his lasting legacy as the one-time Sassiest Boy in America (and subsequent ignoble de-throning), I think Mr. Svenonius' creative output has gradually fallen, witness his painfully dated skewering of suburbia and economic [...]
Before we get things started, just reminding everyone check out Loud Loop Radio tomorrow, Saturday, September 26, at 1 p.m. CST on Radio DePaul . It's going to be awesome! Anyway, back to our regularly scheduled program... ...And You Will Know us by the Trail of Dead ...And You Will Know us by the Trail of Dead's sixth album The Century of Self is by far its most luscious and grandiose [...]
Fresh and ready to be picked.
[mp3] Woods: "To Clean" Um. So, yeah. Continuing with the summer mood enhancer theme, is this pretty much amazing festival coming 4th of July weekend in New York.
