The holidays may be wrapping up, but the decade continues on! So shall we continue our little end of the decade series called clichely & probably often incorrectly " Waxing The Aughts (Poetically) "... ...where we eschew impossible decade compiling lists and have the wonderful members of our community think back to some of their favourite albums from this past decade [...]
Photography by Kira Can someone explain to me why a label would release a single & a video for a hot & hyped up band like Vampire Weekend, only to hire the Web Sheriff to make sure nobody can share, hear, or watch the song or video, unless going through, I imagine, some "approved source", wherever the hell that is.... I thought Vampire Weekend & their label are trying to ride last year's hype with some 09 hype to carry and convert into [...]
Photography by Rita Lino And so the battle for my throat and soul continues unabated as I down any medication, any hot fluid, and any acidic citric fluid (Flo-ride-da OJ baby) I can find to keep dem amoebas dying off on the battle ground... I may lose a battle here and there -- why did I drink hot chocolate milk last night?? WHYYY -- but I will WIN THE WAR!!!! RAWR! Now according to the [...]
Photography by Scott James Prebble With the short week and the ROOOOAD TRIIIIIP! to Chicago this weekend -- if there's ONE thing I learned from movies, besides that all romantic problems can be solved with a last minute chase down to the airport/train station/crowded room/big event where you profess your love in front of a bunch of strangers, is that this is how you have to say "road trip", you know -- been trying to ride without rest days (not so easy when you are [...]
Photography by misakisaiki Well, my buds, once covered in earwax (eww) are now clean and drying.... I want to talk about the new Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs covers album but I need to listen to the music when I'm writing about, so while we wait, can we take this moment to rap? No, no, not this kind... More like this kind... [...]
Photography by THEEOS300400D Hailing from Milton , Ontario in good ol' Canada (you hear that Oliver ? Don't worry... it'll all be over soon) just outside of glorious Toronto (affectionately called T-Punta in Mexico), the good folks over in The Most Serene Republic have offered up their latest collection of symphonic / cinematic / classical often-prog pop / rock gems to my wanton ears with ...And The Ever Expanding Universe . Did you catch that, " [...]
If there is one thing I learned putting together our MASSIVE 3.3 hours, 38 song, from womb to now mixtape of kickin' favourites from every stinking possible year of my life is that I'm getting old. Yep, it's true. Little by little, one grey hair, one fresh wrinkle at a time. Sure, I know what you are thinking, "Tsuru, that can't be so, you is one fine lookin' man, tried & true! If it weren't for that TsuruBride , I'd be all over you like white on rice (or even yellow on [...]
Photography by Jessica Hill How about that Hazards Of Love , eh? Unreal... Well, Baby & I need to head out for a couple days, up to Toronto , unfortunately not for records & pleasure, but for a funeral. We've got a long drive up, a busy schedule there, then a long drive back, and right back to work. We probably won't be able to post much here on TSURURADIO, but we'll be checking in at our new [...]
Photography by Alyz Oh man, rough day at work.... crazy long meetings, two days in a row. Oof. But that will not stop the music, uh-uh, no how, NO WAY! This time around, it started by teasing me as I could only get through most of the first song before getting interrupted over and over. Very frustrating, but definitely wet the thirst. Could the rest of Here We Go Magic's self-titled album live up to the lead-off track? [...]
Photography by Dominika Happy happy Friday everyone! WOOT! Been a crazy week (again) but it's coming to a close (finally), but man I'm so thankful to have had today's album to keep me company.... As you know, I'm more of an album guy, I don't care for singles and what not, I like to hear albums start to finish, to see an artist's vision. BUT, as you also know, I love me a good mixtape , the ability to express one's self by carefully building a new [...]
Photography by apoplexia Okay, the weather has broke, we are back up to a balmy mid-20's Fahrenheit, the sun is shining, the snow is, well, just sitting there, but regardless, my spirit is renewed, my determination resolved and it's time to finish off a little trilogy we've been working on since we first started doing vinyl rips!!! That's right, my dear readers, today, on this beautiful Sunday, we present to you, Neutral Milk Hotel's Live At Jittery Joe's on on luscious black vinyl. [...]
Photography by Us Good morning, happy Saturday! Very, very excited to share today's special vinyl rip with you. One of the best soul albums, and probably THE best duets album ever, 1967's King & Queen by Otis Redding & Carla Thomas! My copy? A 2001 180-gram reissue, and it sounds amazing. Beautiful rich bass & drums, brassy & glorious horn section, and sweet & fluid guitar work by Booker T & the MGs, but the real stars, the shine, the double-cherry topping [...]
Photography by Loulaa Well color me folktronic... What a shitty day, shitty shitty. Back from our wonderfully relaxing mini vacation down in Tampa with the family, only to have real life smack me right up side the head. Hey Jesus & Buddha.... Thanks. Well, the 24 hours of shit seem to be winding down as we come home from work to find our neighbors, quite probably the worse neighbors I ever had, are moving out. We still have no running water (long story), but when I [...]
Photography by suncrushedheart No, I was not born in 1989, nor is this a post about Portugal.The Man again (though, I'd love to discuss that album further, it's so good). No, this is a post about looking back to a different time, to literally 1989... Why? Well, first off, why the fuck not? Why you all up in my grill and whatnot?!? HA! No, no, the real answer is, because it seems to be following me around lately. First in the aforementioned [...]
Photography by Mikaela More Talking Heads ? Yep... This one comes by way of request of one of our fantastic Society members after they were trying to figure out which albums were in our Society banner . We actually had a couple request come out of that thread, but the others can only be members only. They are just too new to put here without raising some record label ire. I started working on a few others and hope to get them up real [...]
Photography by Karina Nurunnisa Don't you just love three-day weekends? Did a really nice 40 mile ride yesterday, a loner (with my new USF jersey ... ahhhh yeah, boy-e! (that's my college , but more importantly, it matches my bike , haha!)), and found myself over the 500 mile mark for August. Not bad, eh? That's with the break last weekend when we went to Montreal and there's still today to go ( baby & I should be hitting the bike path a little [...]
Photography by Antonio Gabriele After yesterday's long-winded post pimping out my wife , her craft show , her craftin' cohorts , and my little " Tsentury ", figured we'd keep it short and sweet today (and to think, when this site first started, all we posted were lyrics).... As we have another amazing vinyl rip to share from one of our incredible members and I don't want to take anything away from it with my jibber-jabbering! You are in luck too, as it's [...]
