New Music Review Bites – Autolux, Bear in Heaven, M.I.A., Best Coast

Autolux – Transit Transit

6 YEARS!!!!!!! Thats how long it took Autolux’s sophomore album to come out. Who do these cats think they are the, Wu Tang Clan? Despite the incredible gap between albums Autolux has continued playing kickass live shows and are essentially a live band. Both Autolux  albums translates an  idea of what they sound like rather than an actual blueprint of their music. Transit Transit reflects this [...]

Right Ear Permanently Damaged – Boris at Casbah in San Diego 7/24/2010

For reals, my right ear has not been the same since.  I should have worn ear plugs to the show, especially because of all the brutality I have but my poor eardrums through this past week, (Rage, Dead Weather and Tool) luckily the ringing has stopped. Oh the show? Out of all the shows I saw this past week this one took the feedback cake.

First off the drive [...]

Got Hung at Dead Weather at Hollywood Palladium 7/21/10

Wednesday night, Hollywood Palladium, sold out show,  blue motifs, whiskey smells and a whole lotta cigarettes describe this ultra  rock show that Dead Weather put on. Allison came out looking like she was lost in 80′s rocking a Axel Rose hair cut looking super sexy while  smoking and flicking madd cigs. Jack White was talking crazy amounts off shit having fun and even handing out some beer to some [...]

New Music Review Bites – How to Destroy Angels, Johnny Foreigner

What happens when you combine Trent Reznor(the motherfuckingman), Mariqueen Maandig(Lead singer of West Indian Girl, super hot, and Trent’s wifie) and Atticus Ross(producer of many NIN projects)? You get a great project called How to Destroy Angels.

Since it’s a Trent Reznor Project he made their EP available for FREE!!!! So I recommend downloading it and formulating your own opinion but since this you are reading this I will tell [...]

Karen Elson- The Ghost Who Walks

There is something to be said with timing. This album came to me when I needed it the most. The Ghost Who Walks expressed what was going on inside myself internally and helped me work out what I needed to, and for the Karen I am indebted to you. With that said, this album [...]

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- The Dead Weather, MGMT, Male Bonding

The Dead Weather- Sea Of Cowards

I have nothing bad at all to say about the sophomore release of the new Dead Weather Album. Its really simple, every track is AMAZING. If you like your rock n roll aggressive, brash, sexy, smokey, heavy and unapologetic then this is the album for you. Every track stands out and has its own style, Die by the Drop is a great radio friendly [...]
