04/02/2007

WHAT WE NEED: BANG! BANG! + WILD BOYZ
04/02/2007
"Wasting no time, the frenetic “What We Need” has already been featured in a “Jackass” video [actually an Orbit gum commercial starring Steve-O of the MTV program Wild Boyz]. It’s the perfect pairing - someone has finally discovered that Bang! Bang! induce nothing but acceleration, deviance, and general misconduct. Flash spits out lyrics about cash, drugs, and the radio with an intensity usually reserved for the stage. “No Real World” and “Radio” from 2006’s Decked Out came close, but “What We Need” goes somewhere else entirely. This one’s covered in... More >

DOUBLE YER FUN: COFFINBERRY AND YO LA TENGO
03/30/2007
Coffinberry will be playing a very special after party following Yo La Tengo's performance at Cleveland's Beachland Ballroom. For those who have tickets to Yo La Tengo, admission is free. Big Takeover has compared the band to vintage Pere Ubu, The Strokes and The Oranges Band while describing Coffinberry as having "oodles and oodles of potential". Coffinberry's second full-length, God Dam Dogs, produced by Todd Tobias (of Guided By Voices fame) is slated for release on May first, but you can get a copy now from Morphius. BAND BIO Comprised of... More >

DAWN OF MAN: CMJ REVIEW
03/26/2007
Produced by David Sitek from TV On The Radio and featuring some long-time DC scenesters, Dawn Of Man does the cock-tease with an EP that leaves you wanting more…much more…now. Icy-cool female vocals and washed out, reverby post-punk guitars anchor a delicate straddling of danciness, mid-’90s East Coast angularity and good ol’ fashioned insistent rhythm. You almost feel as cool listening to it as you imagine they knew they were making it. --Kenny Friday, CMJ More >

PUNK ROCK LIBIDO: BANG! BANG! REVIEW
03/26/2007
Bang! Bang! describe themselves as Chicago's "premier sex rock band." I might describe them as The B-52s possessed with a punk rock libido and a little too much listening to Richard Hell. On The Dirt That Makes You Drown (available from Morphius on April 10), Gretta Fine (vocals, bass) and Jackie Flash (vocals, guitar) are joined by two new members: drummer Nick Kraska and part-time keyboardist Rachel Shindelman. Packing an extra punch, Bang! Bang! break out dance punk and New Wave that is ten times more danceable than the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and maybe even... More >

DOUBLE DAGGER ALBUMS EXCAVATED, ONLY 100 LEFT
03/16/2007
Combining squalling punk with art theory snark and social critique, Double Dagger seem like a band that wouldn't ignite the dance floor. Yet their shows are all sweat and glee, righteous fist pumps and the pogo. With a new album in the works and a handful of upcoming shows alongside Baltimore punk heroes The Fuses and Pere Ubu, it's your last chance to pick up their self-titled album. The band sold out awhile ago, however we have recently dredged up less than 100 copies. All are hand-screened and include a poster tucked inside. Art by Double Dagger's... More >

CRIMINALLY OVERLOOKED: A THRUSHES REVIEW
03/15/2007
Since it’s still officially Tuesday (which is new release day in the industry of music), allow me to heap some praise on one of the week’s most criminally overlooked new albums, Sun Come Undone by Baltimore band Thrushes. Released on their own Bird Note record, SCU is a reverb-drenched wash of classic shoegaze memories and laser-guided melodies. And those not-so-subtle references are for good reason. Rooted in the same oceanic depths and mid-’90s dream-pop masters as My Bloody Valentine, The Swirlies and Slowdive, Thrushes are a band out of time, and thank God... More >

DAVID LYNCH ON A RECORD: ANOTHER THRUSHES REVIEW!
03/13/2007
There is a record you reach for when nothing seems to be working—not relationships or plans or even drinking—or when everything is working all of a sudden, and you can barely stand it. It's not for cry-your-eyes-out catharsis or finally deciding to pull yourself together; it's for those moments in between, when you only can formulate one-word thoughts and you feel so scattered you can hardly move. Baltimore shoegazers Thrushes wrote that record, Sun Come Undone. The quartet's dreamlike wall of sound obscures simple, repetitive lyrics, creating one... More >
