Four score and seven years ago... it was 1924. Not a particularly great year. In fact, the United States was doing some pretty shameful stuff with immigration (see Immigration Act of 1924). I suppose this is really neither here nor there. What I wanted to get at is that civil wars have never been very popular. They're divisive, destructive, and extremely violent. People generally try to avoid them whenever possible and rightfully so. Countries tend to have a higher standard of living when their citizens aren't killing each other. MP3 : [...]

Alex Zhang Hungtai and his band rolled into Big Car Gallery in late on a late September afternoon before Dirty Beaches' performance at White Rabbit Cabaret . Watching and hearing a Dirty Beaches set or listening to Hungtai on album, a frenzy of thoughts and feelings come to mind. One such descriptor that could get overlooked without seeing him in person is "likeable." Between songs and engaged with a crowd, Hungtai is a humble, considerate person on stage and in print. He acknowledged a newfound fondness for Indianapolis in [...]

This session is the second time we've welcomed Deer Tick into a found space in Indianapolis to record. John McCauley's feral, bloodthirsty howl is a truly painful thing of beauty. One minute he inhabits a down-and-out hard case seconds after getting socked in the gut bellying up to the bar one too many times, and the next he's that wounded, rabid beast raging for survival. He's a writer with a knack for prose that could fit between the margins of any Raymond Carver story, and he's smart enough to utilize [...]

As I watch and listen to the footage of this week's session featuring The Coathangers , I can't help but think of Halloween. Maybe it's the oncoming presence of fall as it creeps in undeniably with the wind, a little more every day. Maybe it's my intense craving for candy as of late, and I'm subconsciously fantasizing about the mother of all candy-giving holidays. Most likely, it's the aesthetic of The Coathangers ; a lively clash of dissonance and melody in which every instrument and voice contributes to the overall [...]

Objectivity be dammed: I love this band. I thought Mountain Man's 2010 album Made the Harbor was one of the year's best, and I've only grown more enamoured with their sound since purchasing it twice. WHAT? Yes. I paid tangible, American dollars for their CD, AND THEN I BOUGHT IT AGAIN ON VINYL. MP3 : Mountain Man - Play It Right (live on Laundromatinee.com ) The trio, made up [...]
