Sunday's doooom....
Mon, 22 Jun 2009 02:13:00 +0100Heavy stuff from sadly defunct east coast doom outfit. Limited to 500 copies this is a reissue of the rare "Ancient Worlds" e.p. plus 5 live tracks and 1 track previously available on a comp. "The Black Sabbath-influenced, old school of doom has a long and honorable history in the D.C./Maryland area of the U.S. Beginning in the '70s with Pentagram and continuing into the '80s with The Obsessed, the burgeoning doom underground in that area now boasts some of the world's best old-school bands, including Spirit Caravan, Unorthodox, and Internal Void. Move over gentlemen, because Life Beyond are the latest and greatest addition to that proud heritage. All three members of this doomy power trio are veterans of D.C. area bands such as Gut Soup, Indestroy, Creepshow, and Wretched. A few seconds into this doomy, ass-kicking CD the influences are obvious: Black Sabbath, Spirit Caravan, Unorthodox, etc. There's also an old-school metal feel, with Motörhead hovering around the edges, and even a bit of jazz in the mix. Just a bit, heh heh. All of this combines in a powerful mix of clean, strong vocals, wah-drenched guitar with fluid solos, and a sledgehammer rhythm section that is equally comfortable with a straight-ahead charge or a sudden changeup. The music is suffused with a spirituality that is dedicated but never preachy, and has nothing in common with the laughable crap on TV. These guys walk it like they talk it, with a refreshing positivity that says yes, you can feel good and... (Read complete news)
Ronald Shannon Jackson • Taboo
Wed, 10 Jun 2009 11:58:00 +0100I remember putting "Challenge to Manhood" on many a mix tape regardless whether it was appropriate or not. Killer tune. This collection is not very forthcoming with information about the recording dates, but judging entirely from personnel and studios, this appears to be a collection of outtakes from Man Dance, Barbeque Dog and Decode Yourself. In fact, saxophonist Eric Person has confirmed for me that "Mental Holiday" was definitely recorded during the Decode Yourself sessions. Most likely the only things recorded at RPM were Laswell's production embellishments, some time closer to 1990. Shannon's band would be significantly different on his next... (Read complete news)
The many faces of "Caravan"
Fri, 05 Jun 2009 14:52:00 +0100While I was looking for a song of the week, I realized that I have a lot of versions of Caravan, and that they are all awesome in their own way. We'll start out with what I feel is the gold standard for Caravan, the version by Metropolitan-area-smitten bachelor pad jazz guru Gordon Jenkins. I first heard this version when it appeared in the first season of Mad Men. For personal use. Here is a beatnik-tastic version from Italy in the 60's. I actually have two identical versions of this song. One by Primo Canale off the Dusty Fingers comp, and one... (Read complete news)
Angels Brought Me Here
Fri, 05 Jun 2009 11:17:00 +01002004 when I first hear this song. That time I was really longing for someone...someone I used to loved but eventually flew away...flew away in a faraway land to look for a better job and opportunities. I was wishing then that someday she will be back or that someday we will meet again. While I decided to continue my engineering studies, she already got her job in Dubai. Every after school, everyday that I go home, I just dropped by in SM Manila, reminiscing the place that we're together. Or maybe I just look for someone that will replace her in...

Top 5: Album of the Year - Nominees
Wed, 03 Jun 2009 23:25:00 +0100As we hit the halfway point, I figure I would point out some of the highlights of the year thus far. Before I do, I must stress that all of these albums are worth buying (I have purchased them all, as well as merch from most). Don't take advantage of these bands, if you enjoy them I urge you to buy the album. Within The Ruins - Creatures I discovered this band the moment they released their debut album, Creatures, and was instantly hooked. If Protest The Hero had a love affair with August Burns Red, Within The Ruins would be the... (Read complete news)
The mad world of Marilyn Manson
Wed, 03 Jun 2009 21:03:00 +0100"DO YOU WANT A FIGHT? DO YOU WANT A FIGHT WITH ME?" I MET MARILYN MANSON LESS THAN TWO MINUTES AGO. I am supposed to be interviewing the dark prince of rock, the grotesque goth who, as legend has it, is vampire, zombie and demon rolled into one. And it's already the strangest interview ever. I expected him to be a bit weird - but not like this. I also expected the shock rocker to be highly articulate. From other interviews I've watched, I know he can be the intelligent voice of a troubled generation. But today, it's clear that Marilyn... (Read complete news)

Paolo Nutini - Sunny Side Up
Mon, 01 Jun 2009 18:34:00 +0100I had high hopes for Paolo Nutini's new album. I really liked the simple, laid back tracks that were on his previous album and they really were perfect for relaxing in the garden or more preferably, on a beach somewhere. However, the heavy trumpet opening of the first song on the album, "10/10 alerted you [...]... (Read complete news)
Using A Moment to Set a Scene
Sun, 31 May 2009 15:38:00 +0100In addition to co-writing Trace Adkins hits "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk," Jamey Johnson won a CMA Award for co-writing George Strait's "Give It Away." His song "In Color" is a great example of setting a scene within a moment of time without going overboard on the detail. Since songwriters are always told to describe the detail, there's an inclination to describe everything - often to the point of boring the listener with details that add nothing to the emotional need of the song, or the storyline - which should be linked. "In Color" is a nice example of a single moment in time... (Read complete news)

EA has been running off at the mouth about how much better this game is than 3 and it looked great in the videos. Still hype isn't worth anything if you can't back it up. [...]...
