Blackberry Smoke is the what Southern Rock is all about. Coming from Atlanta, Georgia these southern boys really know how to rock and they are getting the attention of some of the biggest names in Southern Rock. Blackberry Smoke is set to tour with ZZ Top later on this month and will be touring with Lynyrd Skynyrd after that.
– After a long absence from the rolls of the zine reviews, I finally have an update with a zine done by Joolie, of former Scorpi-Oh fame. The zine is very small, meaning that it is automatically cute, and it contains snippets from a number of different songs. Most of the bands are the usual suspects that you would assume would be heavily played by the typical zinester : Sleater-Kinner,…
Domingo f. Termanology – Cold World (Unreleased Remix) – FREE MP3 The original version of “Cold World” appears on Domingo’s 2007 album “The Most Underrated” (Latchkey / Deranged Music – in stores now). This is an unreleased, alternate remix (from the vaults) that Domingo did during the making of the album. Get it here:
The cover on this fiction anthology zine is odd – there is what is presumably a large tick diving into a trunk, whihch really makes sense when one considers the odd fare that one can find in this issue. Trunk Stories begins with a re-telling of the Medea myth by Kirsten Kaschock (Any Oher Name). The story re-tells the Medea myth but is slightly heavy-handing in the nomenclature – the…
All the shows I went to during my stay at DePauw (at least during the school year) were in Greencastle, Indiana. Fast-forward to April 16th, 2005, where I had just gotten off of work and called Josh Query (Silver in December’s manager). Josh promised me a few weeks before that ey would be able to drive me out to the show, which was in Roachdale, Indiana. This town, in the…
If Janis Joplin and Regina Spektor were combined and made to sing over eerie folk tunes, we would have ourselves Ane Brun. Being that I love both aforementioned acts, I definitely appreciate “The Treehouse Songâ€. While the lyrics are young and fun at times, the minor chords bring a darkness to the table that leave a ton of room to think to. It is good to see that folk music…

As someone who has kept up with the band since the days of “Swing Swingâ€, the intro to this song leaves me shocked that I am hearing The All-American Rejects. The opening and bouncy beat definitely channel Smash Mouth, when upon further research I discovered this song was produced by Eric Valentine, who also produced some Smash Mouth singles.

The Odditorium, the Dandy Warhols’ famed studio in their hometown of Portland, OR, is more than simply one band’s space. It’s also home to their friends, the touring and local bands looking for a place to play, to record. The band has always striven to build and promote a community for musicians, and in 2007, they took a very purposeful step in making this a definitive part of their ethos.…
