Until Mr. Porter hit me up about this I had no idea he and The Pollies were putting out an EP together called Your Hometown later this spring if it ever gets here. I could squat on this song and tease the shit out of it in an effort to get you to listen to my radio show but you're looking mighty cute this morning and I am in a giving mood (wink wink). So, check out this track and let's start getting excited for this release: [...]
I’ve never been to SXSW. This tends to surprise people. I often get, “You seem like someone who would go to SXSW,” or “You look like someone who belongs in Austin,” whatever either of those mean. Thing is, I’ve never had a strong desire to go. I’ve seen most of the musicians that have played there (the ones I wanted to see, in any case), and I don’t particularly like crowds. I know, I know, it’s an “experience,” and my work will likely bring me there one day. I’m not bashing it. I think it’s a great thing for everyone [...]

There are only 250 of these and when they're gone. They're gone forever. If you want one, email me your mailing address.
Man. I wish I had time to type out some stories but I've barely got time to shit, shower and shave before heading back to work. I really went into this month's show with no plan and came out with, what I think, is a really rad show. There is a good mix between new and old, loud and louder and a cool cover of Faster Pussycat's "House Of Pain." So Imma shut up and you should press play: Track Listing: 01. The Eagles - Outlaw Man (Desparado) [...]
Taken from the Postcard From Hell mailing list: Thanks to Ned Norland, who runs the magnoliaelectricco.com site , here is the complete released studio output by Jason, including all kinds of singles, EPs. compilation tracks and rarities. A massive labor of love, this is cleared with Secretly Canadian and will only be up for a "short time" Enjoy
Dubl Handi does everything exactly right on their debut album Up Like The Clouds . The name is pronounced like double handy and takes its name from a washboard company dating back to the 1800’s. Dubl Handi is a folk/traditional duo based in Brooklyn. Banjo is the most prominent instrument but Dubl Handi uses a pile of them to recreate the mostly traditional songs on Up Like The Clouds . Each of the 15 songs here sound fresh though all but three were written in a by gone time but what attracts me most to Dubl [...]

John Paul Keith - The SXSW Song (Everybody's in Austin) 02. American Gun - Moonshiner (The Means and The Machine) [...]
Can I coin a new genre? I propose we create a new genre called "Heavy Americana Metal". Tin Horn Prayer would fall under this moniker. Those Crosstown Rivals are there and so is the Alabama 3 piece that calls themselves Fistful of Beard . If you like your Americana pretty and intricate and full of thoughtful lyrics that resemble prose more than songs (think Joe Pug) then Fistful of Beard is not for you. That said, if you’re a fan of PBR, Old Crow and guitars. If you’ve always loved Two Cow Garage [...]
Hey "LK" and "Chris Richburg" you won the Jason Freeman and Matt Woods/Adam Lee giveaways. Email me your shipping address in the next 24 hours or you will unwin.
I snatched up Wilco’s A Ghost Is Born as soon as it was released and listened to it over and over. But I didn’t understand what was up with all the noise. That first month it seemed like noise was all over the record and it bummed me out. I probably put the record away for a month or two and when I listened to it again the noise really wasn’t there and what I heard was a bunch of really cool songs. Dorado’s Anger, Hunger, Love, and the Fear of Death works about the same way for [...]
Caitlin Rose gathered a lot of love for her debut album Own Side Now . And rightfully so, I might add. It’s a beautiful album, where her mostly acoustic songs use her voice to stand out. In The Stand In , that acoustic folky sound is replaced with a bit more electricity, a bit more instrumentation and a lot more intensity. Her fantastic voice is still the focal point of the music, but this mixes folk, rock, alt. country and traditional country into something I choose to call “Caitlin Rose”. This albums just snags [...]
My dad built a guitar. Shortly after finishing it he got really sick and on December 02, 2012, he died. You can read the whole story here . Now, I try and get people to play the guitar. Have Gun Will Travel approached me last weekend about using my Dad's guitar during their Couch By Couchwest submission and, of course, I agreed. So enjoy Have Gun covering "Rainbow Connection"....yes, the Kermit The Frog song . [...]
Wayne Hancock save my life and doesn't even know it. I know you all love a story and boy do I have one for you this time. Once upon a time I lived in a land far away from home. You see I had packed up the whole horde and moved them to Phoenix, AZ. This might have been a worse decision than marrying my first wife! I was as miserable as miserable could be. I only found one juke joint where I could even feel at home. I started plotting my escape within a month of getting there! As [...]
What's that song?? "The waiting is the hardest part" That's what the early part of the year feels like for music bloggers and fans. The new releases are slow to trickle out in January and February and so we're all left to look forward to the months ahead. I asked around the Nine Bullets water cooler to see what folks were looking forward to hearing or were curious about. So here's our list, let's hear yours in the comments. Brown Bird The Cave Singers Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds Sundowner Tin Armor [...]

Stompin' Tom Connors - The Hockey Song (Stompin Tom and The Hockey Song) 02. American Thread - Drink For The Damned (Killing Days) 03. Shooter Jennings - [...]
There are some of you that will see there is a review of Ben Harper’s newest realease on Nine Bullets and immediately move on to something else. I accept that but I pity you. You may know Ben Harper from his “hits” or from that stoner hippy in your dorm room all those years ago. You may have been a fan in your younger years (that would be me) or you might just know that you don’t like him. If you haven’t already stopped reading scroll down and start one of the songs at the end of this post before [...]

So we're convening here on this fine Friday morning to officially unveil the brand new (and official) Ninebullets.net Tumblr page . So head over , like it or follow it or do whatever it is you do on Tumblr and repost everything that shows up on it and email me any awesome softcore porn you find over there.... Other ways you can follow [...]
"May your dreams have mercy on me" - Bow Thayer, "Parallel Lives" My sister once told me she used to believe Pink Floyd wasn't an actual group of actual people-nothing earthly could conjure what they did, they must actually be from space, or be space itself. Similarly, Bow Thayer started out as a myth to me, except he couldn't be differentiated from the earth. My first encounter with Bow Thayer was at the end of high school while digging around Jan Høiberg's The Band fansite, which was how I spent most of my time and [...]
