Man Man – Six Demon Bag (CD)

“Six Demon Bag” starts with a very Western-sounding piano backing up a set of vocals that have to be linked to Frank Zappa. The overall sound of the track is very Spartan, but I would be damned if the band is not tremendously interesting throughout the track. “Six Demon Bag” is not necessarily an album of singles, but really acts as if Man Man had an idea on their mind…

Hilken Mancini and Chris Colbourn – S/T (CD)

To be honest, most individuals that are the driving force of the music scene – the all important 16-21 age grouping – will have no idea who Buffalo Tom, Dinosaur Jr, or the Lemonheads were. Hell, I’m 22 and I missed out on each of those bands by a good five years. However, the opening to this disc (which has Hilken Mancini from Fuzzy and Chris Colbourn from Buffalo Tom)…

The Munroes ‘Rainbow Sun’ Out In September

Like that slice of lime which lifts a bottle of Corona in the after-work beer garden, magnetic London-based quintet The Munroes’ debut offering Rainbow Sun is the perfect accompaniment for hazy, lazy days spent whiling away the evening as dusk sets in. Christened after towering frontman Robert Munro Runciman, this initial cut is taken from The Munroes’ debut album Dying To Be Re-Born – set for release later this year.…

Man Alive – Open Surgery (CD)

The slow, simplistic and deliberate arrangements that open up “Open Surgery” are maybe a little slower than the band should really put forth at this early juncture. The effect that “Give Me A Sign” really has on listeners is one of wonder; is this track slowed down enough to be noticeable? “Say What You Want” continues this sound and really starts to show what is so innovative about this band;…

SHEARWATER’S JONATHAN MEIBURG & XIU XIU’S JAMIE STEWART FORM BLUE WATER WHITE DEATH. SELF-TITLED, DEBUT ALBUM OUT OCTOBER 12TH ON GRAVEFACE RECORDS.

Blue Water White Death is the brainchild of two of today’s most unique songwriters – Jamie Stewart of the eclectic, risk-taking pop group Xiu Xiu, and Jonathan Meiburg, golden-throated front man of Austin art-rock quintet, Shearwater. For their first collaboration Stewart and Meiburg, longtime fans of each other’s music, adopted the name of a 1971 documentary that follows a team of increasingly reckless explorers on a shark-finding quest to Australia’s…

The Mall – Emergency At The Everyday (CD)

I wanted to say that what The Mall did on their “Emergency At The Everyday” was create yet another dance-punk act for all the scene kids to drool over. While there is still a lotr of dance-punk present in The Mall’s act, there are hints of both Men’s Recovery Project and even a little bit of Agoraphobic Nosebleed. The synthesizers that play such a major role during the band’s “Acrid”…

Make Believe – Shock of Being (CD)

Make Believe elicit a different spirit for each of their tracks on “Shock of Being”. They start off their tribute by emulating Nirvana heavily on “Amscaredica”, while “His Short Quip When Eddie’s Bothered” looks to the weird gait of acts like Primus. There is really no connection beyond the masters of oddness during “His Short Quip”, as there are so many things happening at any one given second during the…

The Majestic Twelve – Schizophrenology (CD)

The Majestic Twelve had one of the more memorable albums of the last few years with their “Searching For The Elvis Knob”. This follow-up album works along most of the same lines as “Searching”, with tracks like “Condoleezza Check My Posse” mixing together Jello Biafra and the B-52s in some of the more eclectic music that individuals have heard. The production of tracks on this album are at a level…

City Of Fire To Release S/T Effort August 24th

It was early 2008 when the Cobalt Hotel in Vancouver hosted the reunion of Caustic Thought, a popular local band that had not played together for twelve years. Little did bassist Byron Stroud (Fear Factory, Strapping Young Lad, Zimmer’s Hole), drummer Bob Wagner (Econoline Crush), and guitarist Ian White know at the start that this special evening would light a spark that would take this reunion further than they initially…

The Lot Six – Major Fables (CD)

Since the revival of rock music that was lorded over by Swedish bands like the Hellacopters and Gluecifer, and more famously in the States with The Strokes and The White Stripes, all sorts of bands have worked their way out of their lo-fi sound and tried to grab for the brass ring. The Lot Six is a band that tries to go for this down and dirty rock sound, and…
