Photo by You Ain't No Picasso Ever heard of The Apples In Stereo ? The Elephant 6? Robert Bobbert and the Bubble Machine ? Okay, that last one was a children's album that's only tangentially related to this here post, but it just serves to show that Robert Schneider is a seriously busy and talented dude. From kickstarting the whole Elephant 6 collective to pumping out albums full of psychedelic pop-rock-and producing that classic Netural Milk Hotel album we all know and [...]
We're desperately cramming in as much as we can this month - new stuff, our Twelve Days of Christmas feature, festive tunes, and shortly our Best Of The Year lists and guest posts. Consequently, all these tunes are deserving of more time and more space than we're giving them in this post, but rest assured there is a veritable feast of musical delights to get your ears around - dive in. Self-professed psychedelic cavemen, pounding out their primitive songs hastily in the garage, Thee American Revolution bathes in the fuzz of the proceedings and have filled their debut [...]

Thee American Revolution - Blow My Mind mp3from forthcoming 5 December rerelease ofBuddha ElectrostormonFire RecordsWe're not really sure how to handle this one, other than with our ears, which are most assuredly pleasured thereby. The righteous LP by the combined forces of The Apples in Stereo frontman Robert Schneider, his brother-in-law Craig Morris, The Olivia Tremor Control's Bill Doss, and
Self-professed psychedelic cavemen who pound out their primitive songs hastily in the garage, Thee American Revolution bathe fuzz drenched riffs and fill their debut album Buddha Electrostorm with gem upon gem of Elephant Six like songs. Robert Schneider's (Apples in Stereo) pop smarts can't be denied, and paired with Craig Morris, the duo conjure up a mighty tasty racket. Overseen by the mysterious direction of Wm. Shears, Thee American Revolution blaze ahead as if every song was made with cane sugar and was a number one single. Originally released on Garden [...]

New side project from Apples in Stereo leader Robert Schneider.
Periodically, an exciting release slips past the entire Citizen Dick staff, resulting in much sheepishness and humility at our home office. Most recently, we missed the boat on November's debut release from Lexington, Kentucky's Thee American Revolution. This was a total ball-drop on our part. I mean, it isn't like there is a shortage of hooks around which we could have framed our initial coverage. For example, we could have called attention to the veritable super-group nature of the band, which features Robert Schneider (frontman of The Apples in stereo and famed producer of both Neutral Milk Hotel albums), Otto [...]

Not a lot to say this week. Having had the worst ten days imaginable, thanks to an abscess and subsequent tooth pain I've been out of it. But here we are a few days later, fresh from a root canal and in much much better shape. Thank the lord. Aside from that, by Friday of last week, there quite simply were not ten tracks that you needed. Thankfully, while I was in a haze and agony, several tracks showed up and they made the cut. So here they are in all their glory... [...]
Ok, I'll be the first to admit that most of my "weekly" features never make it past the first or second week, but I'm gonna try and start up a new one and see how it flies. I get literally tons of mp3's and videos sent to my inbox daily, and more often than not, these end up staying there, locked away in solitary confinement. So, I figure that what I'll start to do is set aside a day a week to limit my usual bla bla, keeping the commentary brief as I share some of these findings with you [...]
Erasure will celebrate the 21st anniversay of influential album The Innocents with a deluxe reissue, out Tuesday on Mute Records. The two-disc set also comes with a DVD … Speaking of big anniversaries, the Bouncing Souls are celebrating their 20th birthday with an album out next month on Chunksaah Records, as well as an upcoming [...]
We've received plenty of emails recently asking us about our end of the year list. Readership, let's begin. Our inaugural year in the blogosphere has been spectacular, and although we have our customary mix of free and legal tunes below, we're stoked to announce our "Best Albums of 20093 coverage starting tomorrow. As we candidly use our Radio Dick portion as a platform to begin our coverage, we look backwards into the year that was and find ourselves completely satiated by full and successful year of emerging music. We've tried our best this year [...]
My much-needed lo-fi heavy psych-pop acid rock fix has arrived, courtesy Thee American Revolution's debut album Buddha Electrostorm. A home-recording collaboration between Elephant 6 co-founder Robert Schneider (The Apples In Stereo), brother-in-law Craig Morris and including a rotation of drummer Otto Helmuth (Blueberries), Bill Doss (Olivia Tremor Control) and John Ferguson (Big Fresh/The Apples In Stereo), Buddha Electrostorm is pure fuzz guitar and out-of-control drums and will serve as your full garage rock/psychedelic pop serving. Honestly, it's a sound I can never get enough of. Highly recommended. Power House [...]
"Lo-fi heavy psych-pop acid rockers Thee American Revolution began as a home-recording collaboration between Elephant 6 co-founder Robert Schneider and brother-in-law Craig Morris. Schneider is best known as front-man of The Apples in stereo, and producer of many beloved records, including both Neutral Milk Hotel albums". Passionately induced fuzzed-out feedback ! Thee American Revolution give their unfortunate speakers a good old fashioned hiding with this live recorded studio album `Buddha Electrostorm`. Pumped-up psych-garage blowing current shoegazing trends to pieces, shapes of things, MC5, Creation and Seeds influences all succumb to [...]
NAME: The Apples in stereo PROGRESS REPORT: Mixing their 7th studio album, Travellers In Space And Time at Trout Recording in Brooklyn. Co-produced by Bryce Goggin. When I called the studios where The Apples in stereo frontman Robert Schneider was mixing, I was asked to try back in ten minutes -- Schneider was in the middle of recording another keyboard part for the record. He sounded nervously excited when I called back, like when you've just finished cleaning up before your first party guests arrive. But [...]
