The Popdogs "Cool Cats for Pop Dogs" The Popdogs are one of the bands scheduled to play IPO Liverpool at The Cavern Club this year, and the debut LP is due out in May. From Lincoln, UK the band mines the jangly side of power pop goodness with influences clearly from REM, The Records and even The Smiths. Lead singer and songwriter James Styring and guitarist Tim McKeating are at the bands' core and have great talent for power pop. "Kelly's On" bounces along a hook filled chorus, leading to the angular guitar riffs [...]

I'm such a loser. Literally. I lose things. I break things, too, but right now I'm pissed at myself for losing my headphones. I took them with me yesterday when I went shopping because I thought I might want to listen to my music while I shopped. Well, I decided not to take my ipod into the stores but I must have dropped the headphones out of the car when I got out because they are gone. I've searched the car, my purse, the house, asked the kids, you name it. They are [...]
I must confess, for the record, that I neglected a really good band, New York's jazz-pop orchestra The Sharp Things. Okay, so they're not really jazz, they're definitely pop, and they're certainly an orchestra-sized collection of sharply dressed musicians. Their third album, A Moveable Feast , came out last fall, and I had a very lovely and insightful conversation with the well-respected Jim Santo. Unfortunately, due to the realities of cancer treatments and surgeries and recoveries, a lovely Sunday afternoon interview with The Sharp Things' Jim Santo hasn't seen the light of day. It's a good interview, [...]

The Good: M.I.A. - "Paper Planes (Holy Fuck Remix)" & M.I.A. - "Paper Planes (DFA Remix)"; It's not often that I post remixes on my site, mostly because there's just way too many for me to work my way through. In fact I generally just don't listen to them no matter how good they are, opting to stick with the original song instead. However, if you're going to release a series of remixes and you

Valentine's Day is right around the corner. Felicia already got her present. She's spoiled and demanded it early. She got the usual penguin-covered card, a stuffed plush arctic owl, a bar of dark chocolate, and some love coupons good for dinner at any restaurant, back rub, or any fish or coral under $50....etc. What was my gift you ask? Well, the gift of giving of course. I've got all I need right here at home. Yeah, I'm one of those guys. And for you...here's an interesting little article from The Star to warm your heart in [...]

Sports Note #1: The Red Sox are back in the World Series for the second time in the last four years. It seems weird that all of a sudden the Yankees are ousted every year in the first round and the freakin' Boston Red Sox are winning series in dramatic fashion left and right. It's like a kick in my chest! I can't stand it! Can you imagine what will happen if the Red Sox win the series, the Patriots win the Super Bowl, and the Celtics win the NBA title? I think the people of Chicago would kill themselves! [...]
