Today May 10 sees the release of two of the most anticipated new CD releases of the year. Weezer's "Make Believe" and Spoon's "Gimme Fiction". There has been so much buzz leading up to the release of these two albums and now that they have hit the streets the reviews are beginning to trickle in.
Not a pretty picture for Weezer. Pitchfork (l0ve 'em or hate 'em) gives "Make Believe" a 0.4 out of 10, the lowest I have ...
So Mikey and I hit the vieux port for my fete...and what a grand evening it was! This year, I set aside my normal bday celebration of inebriation and horse bets for romance, inebriation, and polish food...while I missed my girlfriends, Mikey more than made up for it with his rad choice of hotel and his gentlemanly ways.
Let me just say that the Hotel Nelligan, without a doubt, is the bomb! The room was ...

With all that's going down and to celebarate Bev's birthday we are off for a quick and cozy overnight in Montreal.

First my horoscope:

Having skipped the typical band formation story, Matthew chose instead to openly explore the possibilities in his home studio... finding comparison and inspiration from artists such ...
Many ask me why Indie Pop?
Aggro-Pop, Brit Pop, Shoe Gaze, Lo-fi or Slowcore the list goes on and on and on. There is a universe of music and culture out there that sadly does get much "mainstream" attention. It's a shame. KInda like eating vanilla ice cream all the time. Without toppings.
I absolutely relish discovering new bands and literature and even little whole in the wall places to eat. Yep, it's all about new experiences over here at the ...
Check 'em out. They are from Texas. Their official sound is described as ambidextrous equipment failure junk-tronica; break beats for broken ears. I hear a little Tortoise in the mix.
