Jay Reatard: An American Poet (1943 ~ 1971) »

Life is about change, my friends. Jeff Retard was a strong boy. It is tough to understand what Gerard Cosloy can do to a man. If Jim Morrison and Nick Drake had a child, it would have looked a hell of a lot like the late Mr. Reatard. But life is about change, my friends. [...]

The Notorious Byrd Brothers by The Byrds »

This is an awesome album by The Byrds and you’re just jealous. If you truly love real Psychedelic music with every fiber in your being, then you know good and well that this is the record for you. People may sometimes forget that The Byrds were awesome. The fact is that “The Notorious Byrd Brothers” [...]

Albums I Suggest Owning »

Hi; if you are a Hipster then you know that CDs are so totally cool, but what to buy exactly? Here is a list that I compiled out of the kindness of my sweet and tasty heart. Get your purchase on to the following, hit it and quit it… 1. Jon Spencer Blues Explosion “Extra [...]

I Hate Animal Collective More Than Anything »

Skinny white asexual dorks with safe Indie Rock haircuts ideal for the Pitchfork generation. These young boys are not capable of making music, but rather, pointless noise to play to their equally repulsive trust-fund Hipster girlfriends. Some members of Animal Collective attended college and experimented with drugs, or perhaps all members of the band went [...]

That first Moby Grape record with Skip Spence »

The first Moby Grape record changed many lives and including that of my ex-wife, Elaine. What’s funny as I stand here in the rain is the idea that now I am an older man, I have forgotten about my ex-wife something fierce, but the music of Moby Grape like totally lingers or some junk. Why [...]

Bands to Enjoy »

Greetings! Just let me start this evening’s proceedings by saying that the Vivian Girls are absolute rubbish from the deepest recesses of Hipster Hell! Now then, I present Bands to Enjoy! Popol Vuh: Awesome spiritual vibes and a wall-of-guitars from heaven approach that simply can’t be messed with! The late Florian Fricke was both da [...]

Bands to Avoid »

I am here to help and I present a list of bands, or in fact “artists”, to out and out stay clear of now and forever. I will happily give brief descriptions as to why in order to prove myself slightly more useful of your respective loves and devotions. The Flaming Lips: A group of [...]

Yer Best Bet with the NOTORIOUS BIG »

I understand that this blog primarily caters to Hipster/Indie/Retro vibes, but I got to bring your ass back to the source of some good motherfucking music, motherfuckers. I am talking about my main man Biggie Smalls, what the fuck? I am going to focus on the hottest tracks from his two proper studio albums, “Ready [...]

Ranking the best albums by The Beatles »

Rather than continuing on writing about Beck any further, I felt it best to rank the very best albums by The Beatles. Do keep in mind I shall not include everything, just those albums I feel to be of worth, and placing them thusly in a list from best to least-best. Understand; do you, my [...]

kui! kui! On MYSPACE »

This is some pretty incredible music by an experimental Japanese outfit. They got mad Trip-Hop minimalism going on and bizarre freestyle vocalizations. The beats and other sampled pieces of instrumentation are all rather stark in approach, the musical presentation almost hypnotic at times. I find myself very much addicted to the sounds of kui! kui!
