Anger is a Gift Time to Rally Rage Against the Machine at Hollywood Palladium 7/23/10

Before I start, milestone in Red Meat Reviews history, this is my 100th Post!!!! To commemorate this monumental moment I have picked a show to  review that is near and dear to my heart. In true meat fashion lets get into it.

RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE played the Hollywood Palladium last Friday, I can stop right there, but you know I wont.

Needless to say this show RULED. The set list [...]

New Music Review Bites – Ratatat, Hot Hot Heat, Jamie Lidell, Tokyo Police Club

Ratatat-LP4

The 2 baddest white dudes from NYC are back on their aptly titled 4th album Lp4. Fans of  smooth guitar work, frantic bhangra and conga’s, dope ass audio sound bites, and all things funky will dig this latest piece of work that Ratatat has laid out. Is it much different than the last album? Not really, it more of the same, the same awesomness that is. I use the [...]

New Music Review Bites- Black Keys, The Claps, Ganjasufi, Gospel Gossip

The Black Keys- Brothers

There is a reason that this album is called brothers, cause each and every track sounds like a Motown revival mixed with that black keys style. Instead of sounding like recycled soul these dude pulled deep into their own American history and pulled out a phenomenal piece of work. The only thing I don’t like is that I didn’t get this slice of audio greatness on [...]

New Music Review Bites- Flying Lotus, Deftones, Crystal Castles, Earl Greyhound

I have been gone but now am back with some serious force. So much new music where to begin? Lets just start by knocking this shit right out the park.

Flying Lotus is back on his most anticipated record yet. Cosmogramma is a home run. FlyLo has been in the “underground” for a minute now and critics are saying that this album will pull him into the mainstream, plus it [...]

Have Yourself a Meaty Little Christmas Album Review

Question. What is better than Meatwad, Frylock and Master Shake singing renditions of your favorite Christmas jingles? Absolutely nothing. This album should be the definitive studio of X-Mass 2009.

Coming from a strait up heathen family ever since I can remember Christmas was a time where everyone else got to have fun spinning their dreidels or kissing your best friends wife under the mistletoe. This album encompasses that feeling of [...]

DOOM: Unexpected Guests Compilation

Unexpected-GuestsB sides, unreleased tracks, remixes and regular cuts all show up on MF DOOM’s latest release Unexpected Guests. Its a compilation album containing all which was mentioned. If you’re an MF DOOM fan you already have this album, sorta. There isn’t any “new” material on this album, but old doesn’t necessarily mean old. These beats and rhymes are way too hot. Guest MC’s on this compilation include Talib, Masta Killah, Ghostface, Inspecta Deck, Victor Vaughn, GZA, dj babu, Dilla, and many many [...]

This Be the God Body, Ghostface Killah @ Velvet Jones

ironmanzy7Ironman, lead us to the promise land…

That’s right. Pretty Tony rocked out Santa Barbara Saturday night at small venue called the Velvet Jones. The W is strong no matter where it is heard, and Ghostface Killah brings a presence to a live hip hop show that is rarely felt. The show was great. Cappadonna who was not on the bill showed up and did a warm up set and the Ironman himself [...]

Ima Be Enjoying Some Black Eyed Peas With My Red Meat

black_eyed_peas_the_end_cover For those who do not know me, it is a well known fact that I am in the top 5 best white male dancers on the planet. That being said, I cannot stop listening to The Black Eyed Peas newest album The E.N.D.  America’s trendiest hip-hop/dance pop group fucking killed this one. Front to back it is a straight dance party on disc. BEP is not known for their deep [...]
