David Bowie - A Reality Tour
This thirty-three song set on two CDs will please Bowie fans from all eras and collectors will welcome the 3 tunes included here that were previously unavailable- versions of "China Girl," "Fall Dog Bombs the Moon" and "Breaking Glass."
Steve Conte & The Crazy Truth
If you love earsplitting guitars, bleeding drums and a bass line with enough rhythm to make a white man blush, then you will love Steve Conte & Crazy Truth. Conte has made a name for himself as a gun slinging guitar god (especially as the lead guitarist of the New York Dolls).
MorleyView Dilana
If you watched Rock Star Supernova, the TV series that was on in 2006, you'd remember the name Dilana who has a new record out. Read ahead to find out the strange story behind its release.
Even If It Breaks Your Heart
Growing up, I loved watching all award shows. I would root for my favorite actors, directors and music stars to win. Sometimes in the 1990's I stopped caring. I realized that awards are hollow, unmemorable and that it's the music that lives on.
The Good Listeners
Clark Stiles and Nathan Khyber of The Good Listeners are a spirited, adventurous, Los Angeles based duo who risked it all to chase their dreams. Sounds corny and vaguely like every other band's story but their story is cooler. Really. My story has black lungs involved.
Road Trip: The Magic of Muscle Shoals - Something in the Water?
Folklore has it that the portion of the Tennessee River that flows through Muscle Shoals, Alabama, got its nickname "The Singing River" because a young maiden was so enthralled with the rhythm of the waterway that she couldn't help but add a melody.
Suicidal Tendencies - Live at the Olympic Auditorium
It's been quite a chore for fans of Suicidal Tendencies to find hard copies of any video footage of the band lately. So it's like manna from punk-rock heaven that Live at the Olympic Auditorium, shot way back in October of 2005, is finally being released.
Anvil: Defying the Odds
If you are wondering if the band are similar to the personalities we came to love and cheer for in the film, the answer would be a resounding "yes". There was no ego involved here, I found three guys extremely grateful for this rebirth which is a glorious resurrection that is unparalleled in the annals of music.
Blackwinds - Flesh Inferno
Blackwinds are one of those Scandinavian acts who toil incessantly for their region's traditional brand of second-wave black metal. Taking a no-frills approach with the genre, the two-piece attacks with tremolo melodies, shrieking vocals, and blastbeating percussion.
MorleyView Swollen Members (Prevail)
My boys Swollen Members have shown what they're made of with their strong return and excellent new record 'Armed to the Teeth'. This is the 2nd part of a two-part interview with the band.
Jim Weider's Project Percolator - Pulse
Some may know this versatile guitarist from his work with The Band. Weider has also performed or recorded with an endless list of greats including Bob Dylan, Dr. John, Graham Parker, Keith Richards and Lee Rocker. Pulse, however, sounds like none of these artists
Fantastic Mr. Fox Soundtrack
This past holiday season the public at large missed out on one of the most ingenious and charming films of the year- Fantastic Mr. Fox, a stop motion animation film directed by Wes Anderson (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums).
The Bigger Damner Book of Sheer Manliness
Do you have a friend or family member who's lacking a little bit in the testosterone department? Would you say this person is a wet noodle, a weakling, or perhaps a milquetoast?
Rock Reads: Bam Margera's Serious as Dog Dirt
Having grown up just minutes outside of West Chester, PA, the relatively obscure little city that produced Bam Margera and the series "Jackass," it is no small wonder that the fates have decided to drop me his book, Serious as Dog Dirt
Dear Andy Kaufman I Hate Your Guts
The late comedian Andy Kaufman was one of those talents that people either loved or hated. For those who weren't around back then the introduction by Kaufman's lady friend Lynne Margulies does a good job of explaining how the whole thing came about.
Sonic Boom: The History of Northwest Rock from Louie Louie to Smells like Teen Spirit
When the topic of conversation comes around to music that came out of the northwestern part of the country undoubtedly most folks today would point to the Seattle grunge scene and probably Nirvana in particular.
Jack Bruce and Robin Trower - Seven Moons Live
This is an album filled with blues-oriented classic rock. And when I say filled, I'm not joking. The 13 songs on this album cover 78 minutes.
Passport: Insingizi- Kailash Kher & Kailasa- Susana Baca
antiMusic's traveling scribe Kevin Wierzbicki takes a sonic journey around the world with new releases from Insingizi (Zimbabwe), Kailash Kher & Kailasa (India) and Susana Baca (Peru).
Sean Chambers - Ten Til Midnight
Chambers is an incredibly talented guitarist and the man has spent some time studying and absorbing the blues. If you want to add some blues with a healthy dose of rock, this is an album and artist you need to check out.
On The Record: As Tall As Lions and French Miami
Kevin Wierzbicki gives new vinyl releases from As Tall As Lions and French Miami a spin to see if they belong on your turntable!
