This weeks post is most definitely longer than usual but it seems the amount of great music touching my ears these days is nearly impossible to keep up with. I can embrace that with a smile. Just think of this as a double post. Also: I got a confusing message last week telling me that I should include downloadable links to the songs I mention in my blog. Everyone learns at their own pace I guess. So to avoid the confusion the words in red are links to places where you can gets em on your computer for [...]
Presale is the name of the game at VooDoo Lounge, and you've only got a few days to get early tix for frat-rap vulgarian Asher Roth, coming on July 20 with Cleveland's Kid Cudi, as well as '90s-slash-... Continue reading "Incomings: Asher Roth & Kid Cudi, Wallflowers, Glasvegas ..." >

PBJ with the crust cut off. Everyone's favorite Swedish indie rock band that shares its initials with everyone's favorite kid's lunch item has a new album coming out on Tuesday. Entitled Living Thing , my first impression is it is a stronger collection of songs than their previous Writer's Block . There is nothing, however, as infectious and appealing as "Young Folks", the song that put them on the map last time featuring Victoria from the Concretes. So whether the public and indie rock blogs will view this album [...]
Tuesday mornings suck. Monday, eh, you've been away from work a few days and had fun, so Monday feels kind of grin-and-bear-it-able. But Tuesday morning?! Criminy! You've already forgotten about your weekend. The next one is four days away. You've got a ton of work. You're sitting in the office under intense fluorescent lighting. And the [...]

I honestly can say it's one of the best vids I've seen of 2009. Peter Bjorn and John have always been on top of my musical rating list for their simple, but very addicting songs and their latest (Nothing to Worry About) just gave me another reason to love them. They combined some of the very best of Japanese Rockabilly [...]
