El Angel Mexaton – On The Rise (CD)

So, I have one other Mexican rap act to compare to N.S.B.. El Angel Mexaton does not start that strongly, as “25 To Life” is a track that has a flow that feels like El Angel Mexaton is chewing on eir words. Don’t get me wrong, the flow makes sense with the backing beat that was chosen for the track, but there feels like there is a little too much…

’87 Celebrity – The Green Walls (CD)

Even though a few of the kids from this band have played one of my concerts, and they’ve had tracks up on their website since I first learned about them months ago, I’ve not gotten the pleasure to just sit down and give ’87 Celebrity the attention that they deserve. The mastering is a little rough, with the drums on “Bad Luck” sounding almost as if they were intended to…

Eibol – Karma Kingdom (CD)

“Karma Kingdom” starts off slowly, but when a track like “Ask ?’s” happens, one will start to see some of the enrgy that Eibol brings to the mic. The track is not just someone rapping, but really couching all the harmony of the track in an incredibly hooky flow. The inclusion of a saxophone during the track provides a nice vocal-sounding retort to Eibol’s distinctive style. The major thing that…

Eels – With Strings Live At Town Hall (CD)

Listeners will be confused if they necessarily expect “Electro-shock Blues” from this album. This is something that is much more scaled back and intimate than that album, a move that benefits all the songs on this disc. For the performance, the band recasts each of the songs that have made them famous; this is essentially a remix album done without a turntable or a copy of Cakewalk. “Bus Stop Boxer”…
