Review: Sufjan Stevens – The Age of Adz

Sep 28, 2010, 7:18pm DAYDREAM STATION
Sufjan Stevens - The Age of Adz Release Date: October 12, 2010 Rating: ***** out of ***** (Essential Listening!) Wow. During my college days, when Sufjan Stevens started to make his mark in the indie world (think Michigan, Seven Swans, and Illinois), I arbitrarily chose not to follow his career. I'd hear a pretty song now and again and realize [Read Full Post...]

Kanye’s Latest Good Friday

Sep 24, 2010, 7:34pm DAYDREAM STATION
Not much to say here. Kanye does it again with another Good Friday (weekly songs dropped until the release of his new album, Good Ass Job). Another seven-plus minute banger with a loaded roster (Jay-Z, RZA of Wu-Tang Clan, Swizz Beatz). The man is on top of the world and listening to his recent musical [Read Full Post...]

On Wanting to Fuck Guys in Bands (or not)

Could also be called: Musings During the Vampire Weekend Show I Got Free Passes to This Week.  No, it’s not what you think: I am not hot for Ezra Koenig.  He seems a bit too much (really, it’s eerie) like the love child/test tube baby of Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Jason Mraz (bro-y arm gestures included!).  [Read Full Post...]

Time to drop an enormous payload of New Music on you. With no further ado, in alphabetical order, here's what you need to be aware of...

Live Review: Hercules and Love Affair / Casiokids

Sep 21, 2010, 8:24pm DAYDREAM STATION

Overlooked! What Missed Aaron’s Top 100 List…

Sep 20, 2010, 1:00pm DAYDREAM STATION
Our Top 100 Tracks of the Decade lists (see sidebar on the right to peruse them) were epic undertakings. No small amount of poring, sorting, listening, re-listening, second-guessing and indiscriminate ranking went into it, and what came out was wonderful. Was it perfect? Definitely not. First off, Amanda and I didn't have identical lists, so OBVIOUSLY [Read Full Post...]

Carn’t Sleep

Aug 1, 2010, 9:35am DAYDREAM STATION
My periodic, probably-stress-related insomnia would like to make sure you are aware of the following: Aaron featured Kissed Her Little Sister in his new music bulletin the other day and I have to say, having been playing this heavily for about a month now, I completely agree with his assessment of the sound: you would never [Read Full Post...]

The Geezer’s Picks; Change Isn’t Always Progress

Jul 29, 2010, 7:39pm DAYDREAM STATION
Bands, especially good ones, have this tendency to release new music. Fans of these bands then go crazy about it, and everyone talks about this great new music for awhile.
