The one strength that individuals can immediately hear is that Speakers For The Dead have spared no expense getting…

Sparks – Hello Young Lovers (CD)

  In what comes forth as Spinal Tap meets Queen, the opening track to “Hello Young Lovers” is an interesting opening, especially to those listeners that have not had the luck to hear Sparks in the past. In a sense (as someone that was not even alive when Sparks started their career), I would have to say that Sparks must have had a great influence on They Might Be Giants.…

The Soviettes – LP II (CD)

I first was turned onto The Soviettes when their track “Paranoia! Cha-Cha-Cha” was featured on April’s Rock Against Bush compilation. Finally, we are given more than a taste from the Minneapolis act, and they do not disappoint in the least. Mixing the earliest strains of British punk with the straight-forward rock strains started in America, The Soviettes make radio-friendly tracks that are nearly impossible to ignore. Whether it is the…

Piano stores

Piano Tuning Houston is the place that individuals should check out if they would like to purchase a piano. The sheer stock that they have at any one given time far outstrips other piano places that would be in the area, while the price range that this stock possesses is far lower than similar types of stores. I believe that the customer service that is offered on this website is…

Generationals share new song, “Sale City”

Consider this Generationals’ New Orleans record. But it’s not really a “New Orleans” record. When Grant Widmer and Ted Joyner got off the road after touring for most of 2011 supporting their previous LP Actor-Caster, they decided this time they would write and record in New Orleans. “The weird thing is we always go elsewhere to make records,” Widmer said. Both grew up in the city but since they have been recording music as Generationals…
