May 22, 2003 Music Give Up by The Postal Service (Review) This is an electro-pop record that doesn’t properly belong to any movement or time period.
Apr 26, 2003 Music Misery Loves Harmony by The Vegas Nerve (Review) Yep, there are a lot of other bands doing this but the Vegas Nerve do it pretty well.
Apr 26, 2003 Music PMR + 1 by The Damnwells (Review) All in all, the Damnwells give evidence that they’re inching towards something vaguely interesting
Apr 26, 2003 Music For Ramona by Los Halos (Review) Los Halos is a perfect name for this band as they sing about love, angels, dreams, space, and clouds.
Apr 26, 2003 Music Little Airplane by Blake Hazard (Review) Filled with intelligent pop music that could nestle up pretty comfortably with the likes of Lisa Loeb.
Apr 26, 2003 Music Timesbold by Timesbold (Review) Timesbold’s take on Americana-influenced music is as creepy as it is captivating.
Apr 26, 2003 Music UFO Romantics by Guitar Wolf (Review) You can’t accuse Guitar Wolf of being unenthusiastic, of plying their punk rock trade half-heartedly.
Apr 26, 2003 Music Infinite Keys by Ester Drang (Review) A stripped down album that reveals the honesty and beauty at the core of Ester Drang’s music.
Apr 25, 2003 Music Muein/Swan/A Golden Epiphany by Caul (Review) Recent days have seen the release of a trio of Caul titles (one of which is a three disc collection itself), with more on the way.
Apr 20, 2003 Music Sement #2 by Various Artists (Review) Osito has done the hard task of balancing variety with quality, and somehow manages to excel at both.
Apr 20, 2003 Music It’s a Sin by The Blackstone Valley Sinners (Review) Though the Sinners are certainly far from being country in the traditional sense, they’re certainly not alt-country in the accepted sense.
Apr 20, 2003 Music Rolled Gold by The Action (Review) This CD is actually a collection of demos that The Action were shopping to labels in the zeitgeist of 1967.
Apr 20, 2003 Music The Good Night by Victory At Sea (Review) It could be that Victory at Sea’s music simply doesn’t lend it itself well to being timeless or inventive enough to make a person want to buy all of their albums.
Apr 20, 2003 Music Trading My Life by Liar’s Academy (Review) The EP is short and rightly so as the songs are not meant to be delved into and dissected with further listens.
Apr 20, 2003 Music KingsQueens by Wayne Everett (Review) Good stuff, but it just doesn’t reach the dizzying heights attained by Everett’s own work with The Lassie Foundation.
Apr 20, 2003 Music Quietude by Joyful Sorrow (Review) A heartfelt honesty pervades this album and these songs leave an impression that belies their delicate nature.
Apr 20, 2003 Music Plays One Sound and Others by Knife In The Water (Review) Knife in the Water’s rare gift for blending the grotesque and the lovely makes their music worth tracking down.
Apr 12, 2003 Music Illuminated Audio by Gigi (Review) At its best, the album offers seductive, enticing glimpses into another world of sound.
Apr 12, 2003 Music Icarus by The Forms (Review) The Forms new full-length/half-length/EP or whatever the stink it is, is not for you to spend your cash on.
