Per chi scrive Rob Zombie è uno dei talenti più importanti che il cinema americano abbia sfornato dopo il 2000, ma non solo: per chi scrive la prima band di Rob Zombie , i mai troppo celebrati White Zombie , fu una delle band hard-rock più divertenti e geniali degli anni novanta. La carriera solista e la notevole svolta industrial che l'ha caratterizzata invece mi hanno sempre entusiasmato in maniera minore, pur avendo fruttato un paio di ottimi album (i due “Hellbilly Deluxe” usciti a distanza di una dozzina d'anni l'uno dall'altro): riconosco comunque che l'artista [...]

Check out the major label and ultra dolled up (at so many levels) version of Deap Vally’s Baby I Call Hell . Another one bites the dust?... I think so! The song will feature on the duo’s forthcoming debut album Sistrionix .
If your complaint about Michael McDonald's brand of city-slicker soul, dating all the way back to the Doobie Brothers, was that it lacked a certain grease-popping earthiness, "Judgement Day" certainly bolsters the argument. Paired with groove-merchant Robben Ford, McDonald's "Judgement Day" has a ballsy sense of determination that smoothed-out pop hits like "Real Love" - not to mention his more [...]
When I saw the lineup for the brand new Bottle Rock Napa Valley festival, my jaw dropped. The Black Keys, Kings of Leon, The Shins, Flaming Lips, Alabama Shakes, Andrew Bird, Edward Sharpe, Dirty Projectors, Iron and Wine, Mavis Staples, Sharon Van Etten, Best Coast... the list went on and on . Plus, the festival is in the heart of Bay Area wine country, just an hour driving distance from San Francisco. I had to go. Well, the festival is happening in a mere week, and I'll be there. Find me happily sipping wine from a local [...]
Beth Hart, a raw and dynamic singer, has joined forces once again with guitarist Joe Bonamassa - and, as with 20112s Don't Explain, this collaboration brings out the best in both. Hart's quivering growl, and her dangerously sexual purr, have rarely been put to better use than on the title track from their forthcoming Provogue Records release - this simmering [...]
Some artists take a while to warm up to while other artists you fall in love with instantly. For me, with the case of Frankie Lee , it was the latter. His effortless vocals produce a country blues sound comparable to Dawes or Middle Brother but with a handful of country western thrown into the mix. You may know Lee's name for his time supporting Molly Maher before he decided to go out on his own. Frankie has already played a respectable number of shows of his own over the years as he's [...]

In un anno che, appena iniziato, ha già sfoderato importanti ritorni come quelli di Nick Cave e David Bowie , il rientro sulle scene musicali di Simon Bonney e della sua creatura Crime & The City Solution può forse passare inosservato. Ma sarebbe certamente una mossa poco saggia: il nuovo “American Twilight” ci riporta subito alle atmosfere più decadenti e bohémien, più elettriche e oscure degli anni ottanta; ci riporta ai film migliori di Wenders , ai dischi furiosi del primo Cave (appunto). Non è però un mero ricalcare pallidamente [...]

I love it when online travels uncover some lone guy with a Fender strat who's been listening to Buddy Holly or Dylan and he's got the blues in his fingers and a mess of songs swimmin' around his head. Gotta thank the internet for that; in years gone by you would have had to have been in the right crossroad town at the right time. And how's this for a "how I got turned on to music story" ...Ron Franklin told music journalist Denise Sullivan that he was introduced to Memphis music when Mississippi Hill Country artists Jessie [...]
This weeks feature comes from a pretty familiar band to our website. Dawes is back today with the release of their third album Stories Don't End and I have to say I am pretty happy with what I am hearing. While Dawes has been quite consistent through their four year existence in terms of sound, they play it to their advantage. Stories Don't End sounds like something that Crosby, Stills, and Nash might have written and at points I get a hint of Bruce Springsteen from frontman Taylor Goldsmith , all great artists to be emulating. This [...]
Some of Early Mammal's musical inspirations while planning and recording Horror at Pleasure were, Captain Beefheart, White Hills, High Rise & Hawkwind. That's some list, one which I would take to a desert island. Has it lived up to those influences? Hell yeah!! - By Jon Henderson.
Misty Miller is a dusty voiced Londoner who has been making music since the age of eight. She recorded her first album at 15, releasing it in 2011. Earlier this year she released her debut EP Girlfriend . Her follow-up is the brand new single, "Anything For You", which is the first one from her new EP. "Anything For You" is steeped in the kind of electric blues and garage rock that burrows its way into your bones and makes you want to move. Makes you want to feel. Makes you want to stand in a packed bar with [...]
The Mo-Odds: Soto - The Mo-Odds newest EP, Soto , starts off at a full sprint. And it stays that way, until the very end. It’s loud, fast, and full of soul. But the impression doesn’t last long. The songs are explosive, but their fuses are short. Every second counts on this over-before-you-know-it album, but if you listen attentively, you’ll notice some incredible things. It’s no secret that the Mo-Odds model themselves after the best blues rock artists of the 1960s. Their Facebook pages list The Animals as [...]
Che Peter Heyes e Robert Levon Been , aka Black Rebel Motorcycle Club (BRMC) , dopo il fortunato esordio (risalente ormai a quasi 15 anni fa) si siano cullati sugli allori della formula shoegaze a tinte blues è cosa ormai nota. Così come è ormai consumata l'idea che gran parte di noi ci si è fatti di loro: veri animali sul palco (i loro show sono pura dinamite!), pigroni in studio dove i tempi di gestazione sono sempre stati abbastanza lunghi (una media di un album ogni tre anni), e dove, riprendendo il concetto iniziale, la [...]
