The Antlers | Burst Apart

Comments 26 | May | 2011

Considering my previously scathing dissertation on #1 fanaticism displayed at The Antlers live show last year, I find myself in the difficult position of being whole-heartedly obsessed with their new album, Burst Apart, but not crossing the boundary into “that guy” territory.  For the purposes of this post I’m choosing to let loose with my profound love of The Antlers on the premise that my unabashed raving online is nowhere near as intrusive or annoying as being in the presence of an intoxicated and overzealous front-row-fan who is on the verge of forcefully climaxing through denim.

Atmosphere | The Family Sign

Comments 09 | May | 2011

Sean Daley has been rapping under the moniker “Slug” for over two decades.  Joined by Rhymesayer’s prevalent DJ/producer/beat-maker extraordinaire Anthony Davis (aka. “Ant”), the duo has authored an anthology packed tight with angry women playing hostess to Slug’s sloppy, drunken antics and an even tighter fan base hanging on every lyric.  Consistently drawing content from sexual exploitation, terrible personal relationships, and the greater Minneapolis area, Atmosphere has forged its reputation and painted it gold.

It’s never too early to pass judgment and make much warranted recommendations on this year’s offerings to date.  Despite some solid offerings, there are no albums on the market that have sealed a place in history as far as I’m concerned.  However, these ten albums bare the fruit of both (relatively) old and (relatively) new musicians and are worth a tasting.

Beastie Boys | New Video Rewinds

Comments 22 | April | 2011

While eternally youthful in name and spirit, the Beastie Boys have long since become men.  Having over 25 years of experience in hip-hop, the boys’ opportunities for reflection are plentiful.  Instead of selfishly hoarding these memories, they have graciously bestowed upon us a jam-packed feature-length film that doubles as the video for “Make Some Noise” (off the forthcoming album, Hot Sauce Committee Pt. 2; out May 3rd) and also delivers a hysterical look back on the song/video/lifestyle that set the music industry on its ear way back in 1985.

Coachella | Not-To-Do Pt. 2

Comments 18 | April | 2011

The first installment of this post addressed the dangers involved with the sun, beer vs. water, the traffic and the crowd.  While these prove a worthy set of adversaries, this is not all you have to deal with while parading through the desert in hopes of soaking up the musical menagerie.  It is best you be prepared to address these additional matters in order to minimize frustration, bankruptcy and death.

In 2010, Brooklyn-based duo Sleigh Bells unleashed their debut LP Treats.  While they missed a brilliant opportunity for cross-promotion with any number of ear plug manufacturers, the resulting fanfare was as loud as their music.  Fortunately for my ear drums, they waited 20 months before returning to market with their latest product.  Reign of Terror, […]
