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 […]

If I had to pick just one album as my all time favorite I’d have to go with The Beatles 1968 self titled double album which is best known as The White Album.
Many say they like The White Album but with reservations. I don’t have those reservations. To me part of the album’s charm […]

This is an interesting little slice of musical heaven; it is essentially like a part-time job down at the local corner grocery market, get what I mean? It is like waking up at 10:00 P.M. in your sister’s clothes, reading the bible in slow-mo. Seriously, this record is quite the turning point for […]

How does one describe what is essentially a Scottish trio going strictly commercial? The answer to this great cultural quandary is that one simply rejoices with the utmost salinity and advertises a smirk upon one’s face, real horror show. This record has one of the greatest one, two, three-punches in the history of […]

Primal Scream’s Screamadelica is one of my favorite albums of the 1990s. And along with 1997’s Vanishing Point and 2000’s Xtrmntr it is one of three Primal Scream albums that I most highly recommend.
Screamadelica could be called an indie rock album inspired by house music, dub music, & gospel music. But such with such […]

Shimmering, majestically beautiful, Dream-like, and sponge-worthy; these are all terms I would use to describe the beauty and truth that were the Cocteau Twins. A band of this variety truly makes me enjoy drum machines, I’ve rarely heard better use of drum machine outside of the Hip-Hop genre, unless you count early Ween (which […]

Who could not like this? I do believe, dear boy, that after roughly a decade to digest, that this here record is emerging as something quite special in the overall Stereolab discography; absolutely no question whatever. The consistent and satisfying tone that Stereolab head henchman Tim Gane achieves on his rhythmic guitar parts […]

We all know about the new Beck record, right? 10 songs, each song roughly three minutes…what is this middle-aged man trying to attempt? Is he attempting Sunshine Pop in the 21st century, you know, like The Turtles or something? Beck and sex don’t go together, as he works best while being cryptic […]

I recall losing my virginity the year this album came out in 1993, I was only forty-three years of age and all was right with the world. On “In Utero”, it is a situation where the pleasant young chaps in Nirvana wanted to totally back away from the finely tuned production work of the […]

Music from the Unrealized Film Scrip, Dusk at Cubist Castle was released in 1996 by The Olivia Tremor Control. It was their debut album and is quite probably my favorite album released in ‘96 and possibly my favorite debut album ever.
It’s an epic 27 track psychedelic rock masterpiece with tracks as short as 24 […]
