The problem with a list like this is the "shoulds". You know, the albums you feel like everyone else will pick, so you "should," too? Well, this time I decided not to deal with those. My list is based on the number of times I listened to these albums since they came out, whether I love them so much I already know every word to every song, how much it moved me, etc. This is a personal list. It isn't intended to be complete or controversial. That said, I know I'll get crap for [...]
La scorsa settimana abbiamo terminato il nostro viaggio attraverso gli album più importanti del decennio che si sta concludendo. Abbiamo quindi pensato di riassumere il tutto in questo post che non è altro che la lista completa, tappa per tappa, degli album che di volta in volta abbiamo approfondito, in modo tale da avere una sorta di indice delle varie puntate. Dopo il salto trovate anche la listona di tutti gli album che di anno in anno sono stati inseriti fra "gli album da salvare". [...]
Ian Bone brings details of what will be the Must See Film of 2015 . (I'm pegging it for a 2015 release date unless the lottery commission is still doling out the revenue from the poverty tax for funding British films that won't make any money.) The suggested chapter headings look intriguing. It looks like a mix of Green Street Hooligans and Channel 4's 80s comedy Dream Stuffing. If the filmmaker, Greg Hall, is taking requests for what scenes to pre-screen on YouTube, I'm especially interested in chapters 29, 38 and 41. I wonder if [...]
E' una notizia troppo bella per essere vera, ma pare proprio che lo sia: grazie a una richiesta partita da Facebook e approdata sui blog , il ridente Comune di Tonara (NU) ha deciso di intitolare una via del suo paese a Joe Strummer, indimenticato leader dei Clash. La notizia campeggia sulla home page dello (splendido) sito del Comune di Tonara , ed è riportata dal blog che l'aveva rilanciata ( Su Barraliccu ). Altro che terra di pastori e pecore, in Sardegna sono avanti anni luce. [grazie a Pirex . E perdonate il [...]

We've spent all this time building up our digital music libraries, so why not tinker around with them a bit and have some fun? Last week I explored tunes that clocked in at 2:28 . This week, I take it to the streets. The exercise this week is to locate your street songs. I'm not talkin' lanes, avenues, roads, courts, and the like. Nuh-uh. I'm talkin' Streets . What's more, I'm looking for songs that are simply names of Streets. "Oak Street", "Main Street", "This Street", "That Street". So that leaves out a [...]
If you could put a voice to that feeling that overcomes you as the night stumbles to a close and the barlights dim ever so slightly, that last little loving nudge towards the door before the slam back on, each blazing bulb a 120 watt punch in the nose, that voice would be Matthew Ryan's . For the better part of 15 years, Ryan has been putting out beautiful records, collections of graceful, hypnotic melodies floating high above a battlefield of love and loss and all of the other wreckage we all leave behind us. Sonically pinpointing [...]
Check it!!! It's the debut mixtape from some of the coolest kids around, Chiddy Bang! With some of the freshest sounds we've heard in a long time, "The Swelly Express" tells the story of Chidera Anamege & Xaphoon Jones, two kids from Philly, and "their many boring trips on the Chinatown bus (they have wifi now!) on the way to meet 'big wigs' in NYC." The samples on the mixtape are all over the place and completely insane - from Mary Poppins, to Sufjan Stevens, Yelle, Passion Pit, Joe Strummer and the Mescarleros, MGMT, Belle & Sebastian - it's fucking [...]

The image of singer/songwriter Norah Jones strumming a guitar instead of sitting at a piano may seem unusual at first. But it's a perfect visual representation of some of the changes that can be heard on the fourth album, The Fall. She worked with producer Jacquire King (Modest Mouse, Kings of Leon) for the first time and brought aboard a new set of instrumental collaborators, including guitarists Marc Ribot (Tom Waits, Elvis Costello) and Smokey Hormel (Johnny Cash, Joe Strummer) and drummer James Gadson [...]
In the past, Weezer frontman Rivers Cuomo has been known to be a bit of a control freak, so it's surprising to see just how much he's let go with their latest release, Raditude . Whether it be the band switching instruments, giving Lil' Wayne a guest spot to rap ( Weezer & Weezy !), or even letting The Office 's Rainn Wilson name the album , it's a looser, more free-flowing Weezer. In the lead up [...]
I can remember the first time I heard a Rocket From The Crypt song. I was 15. It was about half one in the morning and I was about to go to sleep (school in the morning). Darragh Purcell was presenting a music program at the time and I happened to be watching that night. As I got up to turn the television off, he appeared on screen and began musing about a rock band from San Diego out to conquer the world. To surmise he said "The band are Rocket From The Crypt. The song is Break It Up. [...]

The three B's of the Jersey shore: beer, b owling and Bruce Springsteen. Add in a fourth B – Brooklyn – and you've got the ingredients of Friday night's Gaslight Anthem show. The up-and-coming punk revivalists played a packed set at the Brooklyn Bowl while lager flowed, p ins tumbled, and hipsters said the hell with ironic distance, crowd surfing, fist pumping, and uninhibitedly yelling along. Oregon's Broadway Calls kicked things off with a fast-paced [...]
