"You moved in slow degrees/A sudden memory/You're a Leonard Cohen song" - Better Than Ezra, "Under You" "But I was caught, like a fleeting thought / Stuck inside Leonard Cohen's mind" - Mercury Rev, "A Drop In Time" "Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld / So I can sigh eternally" - Nirvana, "Pennyroyal Tea" It's almost unbelievable now to think that we almost never heard Leonard Cohen , the singer.

5 Songs is a weekly series where we point out the strange, the grand, and the unique connections between our favorite songs. Let's get weird. Words by Chris I commit to "pop" because it's more fun to say than "soda". Look, soda is flavorless ephemera that has to be mixed with gin to work as a beverage at all [...]
Sunday was a day of rediscovery for me. It had been years since I listened to Doolittle , the 1989 breakthrough album by Pixies, in its entirety. So many that I'd nearly forgotten what a fantastic album it is. Then yesterday, on the way home from my morning run, my iPod shuffle landed on "Debaser," the opening track, and it all came flooding back to me. What was it about Doolittle that made it such a perfect album, so much so that when I started to listen to it for the first time in [...]
Unlike London based blogs we sometimes feel a tad left out up here in the frozen north, consoled only by our warm beer, pies, our amusing flat cap collection and our prize winning whippets. If we had a pound for every time a manager, record label or PR company asked us if we'd like to "pop down" to Water Rats or Koko that very evening to see the latest bright young things we'd have, oooh, about £76.00. The point we are clumsily trying to make is that although the net has shrunk the world, it's still very difficult to keep [...]

Recuerdo que hasta hace algunos años el ver a Pixies en vivo era algo un tanto imposible, digamos que la unica manera que me venia a la mente en ese entonces para poder asisitir a sus shows era el viajar a otra parte del mundo para poder toparlos pero por suerte, hace dos años pisaron nuestro pais y pude disfrutar de dos muy buenas presentaciones de Pixies las cuales de inmediato se me quedaron plasmadas en la mente. El escuchar tracks que de alguna manera fueron marcando algunas etapas durante mi crecimiento fue algo mas que [...]

Where Are They Now? 20 Years After the Alternative Revolution
Filed under: News , Exclusive , The Hit List Wire Image | bauergriffinonline.com In January 1992, Nirvana 's 'Nevermind' album toppled a four-week holiday-season reign by Michael Jackson 's 'Dangerous' atop the Billboard 200 sales chart. The Alternative Revolution had stormed the barricades. Grunge, goth, pop-punk, industrial and electronica suddenly all came together to a degree, as outsider acts from outsider genres broke through to the mainstream in [...]

The Top 20 Steve Albini-Recorded Albums
Infamously cantankerous studio rat/national treasure Steve Albini doesn't like to be called a record producer. He prefers the term "recording engineer." That's a dry, clinical term for what Albini actually does, but it makes sense that he'd prefer to be seen that way. Over the past few decades, Albini has overseen the creation of countless numbers of recorded artifacts. And even though he's been an outspoken opponent of the major-label system (and of other underground-rock heroes), he's known to work with just about anyone who requests his services, whether it's a major-label juggernaut like '90s radio-grunge rulers Bush or the [...]

"Bright lights", Pixie Lott è sempre piu sexy e duetta con Tinchy Stryder
Cose buone dal Regno Unito. Merce rara, musicalmente parlando, per un paese troppo legato agli standard statunitensi. Ma soprattutto dalle giovani generazioni stanno tornando prodotti interessanti. Pixie Lott ci riprova. Dopo il botto dei singoli di esordio "Mama Do" e "Boys and girls " e il successivi "Turn it up" e " All about tonight ", decisamente meno belli me che comunque le ha fatto gudagnare la nomination ai Brit Awards, ecco uscire la sua ultima produzione "Bright lights" . Con un video che la vede in versione sempre [...]

Cassettes Won't Listen-"Hey" (Pixies Cover)
Normalmente associados a uma banda composta por 4 elementos, os Cassetes Won't Listen não são mais que uma banda composta por apenas um elemento, o multi-instrumentista e produtor Jason Drake que segue uma linha similar aos The Notwist, os extintos The Postal Service, Built to Spill, entre outras e que já produziu algumas remisturas para bandas conhecidas da nossa praça, tais como os Morcheeba
