It's hard to consider Radar Eyes' self-titled debut anything other than a pop record. While Radar Eyes is an amalgamation of garage, psychedelic and punk rock, the band manages to tightly piece those distinct sounds together. The album maybe rough around the edges tonally, but it's crystal clear in delivering a melodic palette, which provides just the right amount of catchiness and accessibility without losing that rock and roll edge. While Radar Eyes touch on the acidic nature of Spacemen 3 or [...]
Remember last week? I talked so much about Coachella! It was mostly bad, of course, but it seems like a lot of people responded positively to my series of posts reviewing the bands scheduled to play this year's festival. Lest you think I was the only news-source on this 'ere Internet dedicating space to Coachella [...]
You might recognize the low register howl of Jered Gummere from his previous band The Ponys. Bare...
Spacemen 3 - So Hot (Wash Away All of My Tears) Never saw a video for this slow song from their seminal 1989 Playing With Fire LP, but wow, this sure fits. Steaming. Perfect end to the weekend.

...and then, in an act of reverence, they took their melodies, their intervals between notes, their rhythmic variation and burnt them, a sanctified offering to the great god of fuzz. And listeners looked down upon their offering, so burnt that none might partake. They smiled, nodded, and even bobbed their heads when the occasional mood

Spacemen 3 - Take Me to the Other Side Perfect Prescription is English neo-psychedelic/space rock band Spacemen 3's version of a concept album. Recorded in 1987, it is a chronicle of the euphoric highs and sullen lows of a drug trip. Equal parts psych-rock, shoegaze, and indie, Perfect Prescription is considered their "masterpiece." Enjoy the trip!
Armed with the mother of all undercards - the Arctic Monkeys , Panda Bear , Warpaint , and the Smith Westerns - TV on the Radio returned triumphantly to Hollywood last night for their first show in the city since last May . Chicago's Smith Westerns got things started early with a short five-song set that showcased the very best off of this year's Dye it Blonde . Rather than their overlong festival sets that forced them to delve into the record's duller points, the limited set [...]
De infantiele manier waarop de titel van het album op de hoes wordt uitgebeeld, zullen we dit viertal uit – goh – San Francisco maar vergeven. De heren van Wooden Shjips houden het nu eenmaal graag simpel. Op West valt dan ook slechts een stabiele, licht stijgende lijn te bespeuren ten opzichte van de twee voorgaande albums. Albums waarop een fuzzy, noisy gitaargeluid, groovende psychedelische stoner en een eentonig drammend Hammondorgel centraal staan. Op dit derde volwaardige album heeft Wooden Shjips voor het eerst in het bestaan in een studio en met een producer [...]
This just seems like an appropriate way to start off the weekend. From Spacemen 3's 1989 LP, Playing With FIre, a true classic, this is Revolution . Turn it up loud.
Yeah this rips. Bummer High are a band from Vancouver that are into old country, Spacemen 3, and newer bands like Demon Claws. The sound on "Old Chief" reminds a bit of The Gun Club. Yep, they're that legit. Bummer High - Old Chief Bummer High ( Myspace ) ( Facebook ) Rating 8.6
Moonbell From: San Francisco, United States San Francisco's Moonbell have not been together long but on their first e.p. Figurine they sound like shoegazing veterans. Their swirling, hazey sound has one foot on the path laid down by Spacemen 3 and the Telescopes and the other foot firmly planted in Syd Barrett era Pink Floyd's back garden. This is music made for dark basements with nothing more than a rudimentary liquid light show and [...]
Joining us through the magic of Skype, all the way from London, England, is Jon Sutcliffe, lead singer of SULK . Jon handpicked all of the songs for Episode 109.

Christian radio host Harold Camping has predicted that "beyond a shadow of a doubt" the Rapture will be taking place Saturday May 21st 2011 at 6PM local time (the rapture will sweep the globe time zone by time zone), and that the end of the world will occur five months later on October 21st 2011. So we put together some tunes to help you pass the time. Bardo Pond; Don't Know About You The Velvet Underground; Jesus [...]
With ex-Spacemen 3 mainman Sonic Boom's Spectrum outfit currently on tour in America, there's also a new four-song EP from the group, which includes at any given time Sonic (a/k/a Pete Kember), Randall Nieman, Nolan Watkinson, Iain Worrall and Roger Brogan -- for the EP the musicians were Sonic, Watkinson and Brogan. "[The band is] sounding the best it has since S3 days," Sonic told me last year
Peter Kember is Spectrum If you don't know who Peter Kember is, it's okay; if you've never heard Spacemen 3 though, it might be time for a trip to the record store. From 1983- 1991, Kember and one Jason Pierce developed a drifting sound that bordered on psychadelia, garage rock, drug use and the avant garde. After the breakup of the influential act, Pierce continued, joining Spiritualized, whom he still fronts as the band's only constant member and Kember went on producing (he did MGMT's last heap Congratulations ) and working under the [...]
