Simon Roberts Both these songs have unnecessary intros. The Crown Vandals - "Guenevere" You want to go back to the 14th century, to wait in a grove by the walled city. You want to hide your drum-kit beneath under a leafy oak, conceal your guitars in a mulberry bush; cheap amps, cheap mics, cheap booze nestling among beech-roots. You want to wait there, for courtiers and commoners who steal away from the walled city - weirdos & thieves & lovers & lonelyhearts. They [...]

It was 70 years ago that Nathan Wallenstein Weinstein, better known to you and I as Nathanael West, published The Day of the Locust. A new edition of the book is being paired up with the other seminal West tome, Miss Lonelyhearts ( New Directions , $11.95 with a foreword from Jonathan Lethem) and if you've never read either, then do so. Both are highly required reading and still relevent to today's world. The Day of Locusts is a pretty perfect slice of the perverse Hollywood underbellyand still burns like a [...]
A bit of a bonus today in that we've got two new tunes for your listening pleasure.The first is from The Lonelyhearts who released their second album Disaster Footage At Night last Autumn. We only came across it, and them, last week, but it's an enjoyable mix of Americana, folk and perhaps even a hint of Southern Rock. The songs slyly lodge themselves in your head and then stick around so that by

The Boston Globe profiles author John Cheever. The Boston Globe interviews Kristin Hersh . You're writing a memoir about your time in Boston and Providence -- starting a rock band, becoming a teen mother, and being diagnosed bipolar. What's it like revisiting those days? Well, I didn't do it on purpose (laughs). I was approached to write my memoirs, and the only book I had ever written was a diary, which I had lost in a flood [...]

Together they create soft acoustic rock that gently brings to mind the tranquil sensations of how a Sunday morning should feel and sound. Although Andre now lives in Iowa City, IA and John remains in the Bay area, throughout [...]

About a month ago I made a post about Tom Petty fans the Lonelyhearts, and reading through it now I realise I made no mention of the band's label, Three Ring Records . I feel I owe them an apology, really, because their site ( here ) has got a good few downloads to snag, and it's turning into a bit of a goldmine. There's some great stuff there. Music For Animals You hear references made to the eighties, these days, as if they were [...]

I'm not a big Tom Petty fan myself, and I'm guessing not many of us are these days. In fact it seems a rather strange name to drop in as one of your influences on your Myspace page. C'mon fellers! But. I really like this lot. The Lonelyhearts The Lonelyhearts are two blokes who come from Iowa and California and who make some really haunting, Psychedelia-tinged records that also lean heavily on a kind of Burritos-esque country sound. There are [...]
