Tinker's Punishment, who changed their name to The Films back in '04, still remain one of my favorite pop rock acts from Denver in the 20002s.

There's not a lot going on this Tuesday after Valentine's Day, unless you're in Denton and you love piano pop. But things are sure to get ramped up in the coming days, we promise. ... Continue reading "Tonight, Tonight: Andrew Tinker at Dan's Silverleaf" >

On the day that I get an email from British Sea Power, Eamon Hamilton's former band, informing me that BSP will be playing Regents Park, where they allege Eamon buried 24 cans of Kestrel draught-flow in 2003 but can't remember where. We happen to be in Derby to see Eamon and his band, Brakes. Eamon is obviously a fan of The Voluntary Butler Scheme because again this one-man-band is supporting him. Rob doesn't appear quite as shy as when we saw him last year and is quite chatty with the crowd but he's still doesn't look exactly comfortable [...]

Fiona Apple surged into the limelight in 1996 with her debut album, Tidal. I remember hearing the record and saying to myself there was no WAY she was only 19 at the time. That voice was the definition of sultry and the songwriting was unbelievably unbelievable. The singles "Criminal" and "Shadowboxer" were (and still are) phenomenal pieces… I couldn't wait to hear more from Apple. This week's most played song from my iTunes comes from her third release, Extraordinary Machine. [...]

Finnish indie-rock-band Tinker has released 3 new demos, and all of them are worth an earful. It's amazing how easy it seems for them to create those catchy songs. I can only repeat what I've written before: in a perfect world, these guys would be huge! Check out the songs (and the older ones on the official homepage!), and visit them on MySpace. http://www.tinkerwashere.net/ http://myspace.com/tinkerband [...]

... that a band sometimes takes to be heard. Here's a nice example: Spanish music-lover José Antonio (frequent readers of my blog might already be familiar with him) has recommended Finnish band Tinker to my blog mate Morten . He mentioned the band in his blog, where it was obviously read by Peter (and many others as well, I assume). So Peter [...]

Das Klischee, dass finnische Musik immer etwas schräg, verschroben und anstrengend sei, wurde bei mir in den letzten Jahren ja doch schon mehrfach wiederlegt, z.B. durch Bands wie Husky Rescue oder I Was A Teenage Satan Worshipper. Vor einigen Tagen kann ich Dank Morten dieser Liste eine weitere Band hinzufügen, und zwar Tinker . Dieses finnische Quintett spielt seit knapp 6 Jahren zusammen und ist musikalisch eindeutig von anderen großen Skandinaviern wie Mew oder Kashmir, vielleicht auch von der urbanen Melancholie von Puressence oder Suede beeinflusst. Vor allem Songs wie «Revealed» oder «Serpentine» [...]
