"Seven Curses" by BOB DYLAN: One of the darkest, most powerful Dylan songs I've ever discovered was included in the 3 CD box set The Bootleg Series, Vol. 1-3 , the same release from which I previously cribbed "I'll Keep it With Mine." "Seven Curses" tells the story of a man named Old Reilly who goes to jail for stealing a horse and is sentenced to hang. Reilly's daughter hears news of her father and comes bearing riches to free him, but the judge gives her only one option: you must sleep with me to free your dad. [...]

unicorn reanimation case n°6 2007 (française version) C'est comme dans la vie. D'un côté, un aspect visible : on agite les bras, avance une jambe - ou l'autre - secoue la tête, cligne des yeux, ouvre la bouche, etc... D'un autre, un aspect latent : le sang coule, l'air circule, les influx nerveux nous traversent...etc... Torso/Unicorn c'est pareil. D'un côté Torso, visible, immédiatement accessible ; de l'autre Unicorn, à [...]

I'd like to first off apologize for the delayed entry. The excuse? Viruses. Pipe's computer caught one and his main hard drive was corrupted. Thank God his music drive is safe. I also caught a virus myself, and had to take a shot in the butt from the doctor. But I'm here today and in perfect condition to post some music and a bit of commentary. The first song here will be by a man named Joseph Arthur . While not necessarily a household name, he is most recognized for his song "In The Sun" which was covered by [...]

Happy 10 week anniversary Thirsty Thursdays, on to the random assortment of songs. To celebrate the release of The White Stripes ' new album, " Icky Thump ", I'm gonna share the very first thing this Detroit rock duo ever released. Prized by collectors, the "Let's Shake Hands" 7" was released back in 1998 with only 1000 copies pressed. It was re-issued in 2002 with another 1000 pressings. The song is great. It's loud, noisy and fast. With this very first peice of vinyl, they brought forth their combination of rough rock and raw blues [...]
REISSUED REVIEW: The Unicorns Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone? (Alien8 Recordings - 2004) Una pietra miliare lo-fi, condito di elettronica in chiave acida. Leggendari. Gli Unicorns sono stati per me un vero e proprio colpo di fulmine! Qualche singolo (di cui Unicorns Are People Too si piazza addirittura 23° nella classifica Canadese), un solo disco in primavera 2004 e poi si sono sciolti

didn't do anything this weekend that even came close to the silliness that went down last weekend at the dfa party at studio b. yacht came out first to warm up the crowd. dude killed it. but from the first second that james murphy et. al stepped onto the stage, they owned the place. studio b usually ends up as a good [...]

The Deadly Syndrome Genre: Indie / Folk Rock From: Los Angeles, California, United States The Deadly Syndrome are a new band with an eclectic sound that reaches out from the narrow confines of the traditional folk scene to intrduce elements of jazz, electronica and, gulp, even dance. A unique band that fuses The Unicorns ( 'The Ship That Shot Itself' ) with Spoon ( 'I Hope I Become [...]
Here's a blast from the [fairly recent] past. The goofy, fun and short-lived Unicorns. While they are gone (who will cut their hair now? haha .), their one full album stands as a testament to the creativity they had within them as an ensemble. They wrote indie rock songs with a strong sense of silliness, and it worked quite well for them. Take a listen below to some tracks from the highly recommend album Who Will Cut Our Hair When We're Gone ?. The frontman of [...]

the Unicorns - "2014" (demo) the Unicorns - "the Unicorns: 2014" The 2004 release of what turned out to be the Unicorns final single was, at the time, met with a hearty shrug . Aside from rumors of unrest, however, we had no real knowledge that this would be the last offering from the much too brief tenure of Montreal's first real buzz band of the decade. So, knowing what we do now, it seems we should afford the sad unloved "2014" [...]
Chameleon Girl – Dappled Cities Fly Here's a little treat for all the Dappled fans out there. It was one of their first singles and is vastly different to their current style. It's actually quite good, but I can't help but laugh every time I hear it. Be sure to heckle them to play it next time you see them. I Don't Need Love, I've Got My Band – The Radio Dept. This is just one of those random songs I have sitting around on my computer that [...]

In the face of huge and incredibly wealthy companies suing one other over because of their fears of the internet, and all the terrible, terrible things it will bring, it might be a good idea to think about how far things have come since the days of Napster and Audiogalaxy. Once, bands and labels did as much as they could to prevent mp3s reaching the internet. Now, almost all labels are engaged with it, and it forms as much a part of their promotional and retail world as anything else - and that's before getting into the whole Web 2.0 [...]
This week's episode features, for the first time, a couple of female singers. I actually considered at one point doing an all-female episode. But I decided against it which was probably for the best. As you can see I've also started naming each episode rather than just numbering them - just to make things more interesting. You shall be enjoying: 1) Postcard of a Painting - Maximo Park Great British band who recently released a very solid (debut I think) album "A certain trigger". I've always found it hard to find a best [...]

Alex and I guest hosted "The Neighborhood" radio show on Newton's WZBC radio station on Wednesday. We were on with our good friend Dave from 10am-noon, then 1pm-3pm. It was a good time, we helped picked out some music and enjoyed some new tunes as well. I've included a few mp3s of songs we played on the show, but you can check out the whole playlist here and here . MP3: Mazarin - The New American Apathy ( buy ) I first heard this song when Apollo Sunshine covered it at [...]
Finally, after 19 postings, the remaining space on my hard drive and over a month , I have finished downloading the bulk of my 45's to Mp3's. I hope that you all enjoyed my pain. Here's the rest of the alphabet: FROM THE FRODUS / TRANS MEGETTI SPLIT 7INCH : The Trans Megetti - Brakes FROM THE TEXAS IS THE REASON / SAMUEL 7INCH : Texas is the Reason - Something to Forget (Alt Version) FROM [...]
I noticed this morning that The New York Times ran a feature about the CMJ Music Marathon and mentioned your favorite blogger music friends and mine, Division Day : In a World of Cacophony, Experience for Sharing The rock critic Robert Christgau gave an interview last month to the Web site popmatters.com . Mr. Christgau, who was recently dismissed from The Village Voice after 37 years, talked a little bit about recent history. But he also talked about an old obsession of [...]
