Another bloody review for an OLD album! Did you catch the recent Marvin Marks review for The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn? I think it’s a pretty solid fact that Pink Floyd were at their most adventurous and experimental, on record, between 1967 – 1970. There are also some awesome recordings of Pink Floyd [...]

Loveable Mop-Tops From The Land Of ABBA Rock Harder Than Count Rushmore! (The guy who made the mountain!) At first glance, these guys might come across as a screamo punk band but don’t you believe it. This is not punk rock or even hard core strictly speaking. These guys are a very tight band, as [...]

Brings Techno To The Masses, And Invents The New Wave! Jean Michel Jarre – Oxygene (1976) Everybody knows that America is the cultural center of the universe and that everything Americans do is Important! But just in case that’s wrong…. Here is a classic album from France. Jean Michel Jarre – Oxygene. Released in 1977 [...]

Pink Floyd’s The Piper at the Gates of Dawn is one of my favorite albums ever. It’s the very first album by Pink Floyd (or “The Pink Floyd” as they were known in 1967) and for those that only know the band for their much more famous 1970s work (like The Dark Side of the [...]

Original Riot Grrrl Group Take No Musical Ability And Craft Amazing Debut! And Own 1979! One of the many, many, many groups that sprung up in the immediate aftermath of seeing the Sex Pistols live. The difference is that The Slits were an all teenage girl group among the precious boy groups who tended to [...]

Critics Label Tull as Prog. Label “Aqualung” as Concept Album. Jethro Tull React! Over the Top, Bombastic Prog Silliness Ensues! A friend of mine at school knew I liked adventurous music and said to me that I should check out a 45 minute song that he had. A 45 bloody minute song? So, he taped [...]

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” [...]

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 young Miss [...]

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 Pop. “Know [...]
