Music Review: The Queers – Back to the Basement

The Queers are old as spit … or at least Joe Queer is. However, every time there is a Queers release I think back to those great songs off of “Grow Up”, “Don’t Back Down”, or even “Punk Rock Confidential”. As years have gone on it is apparent that Joe …

Music Review: Black Eyed Peas missing the Boom, Boom, Pow on latest effort
The Black Eyed Peas’ “The Beginning” is a nonstop party, but the effort is not without a few clanging missteps. Perhaps the purveyors of feel-good anthems are trying too hard to live up to that title, creating songs that sound as big as earlier hits, but lack the luster.

Play Button , an Annoying MP3-Player In a Button – Wired News

The Play Button is either a desperate attempt to incorporate all the annoyances of analog music into a digital package, or it is a genius marketing move which will perhaps usurp the USB thumb-drive as the ultimate in corporate schwag giveaways. It’s an M

Music Review: Dans les arbres – Dans les arbres
Among the many things that John Cage is famous for is introducing the “prepared piano” to the world. By attaching objects such as nuts, bolts, and pieces of rubber to the piano strings, the instrument produces a combination of sounds unlike anything else. Ivar Grydeland has taken …

Dolores Scozzesi’s A Special Taste is one of those records that brims with warmth and flavor.

Scozzesi …

Music Review: Queensryche – Empire [20th Anniversary Edition]
Twenty years ago, Empire and its best known hit song, “Silent Lucidity” was my introduction to Bellevue, Washington’s heavy metal/prog metal band Queensryche. Yes, there were four relatively more raw and less epic albums before it, but this one still soars above the rest for me.

Music Review: Buddy Guy – Living Proof
Despite the title of his latest recording, Buddy Guy really doesn’t have anything to prove. Admired and cited as an influence by some of rock’s greatest guitarists (including the likes of Clapton), he’s an acknowledged master of his instrument. He’s got a genuinely impressive …

Music review: Keith Urban, “Get Closer”
Keith Urban, “Get Closer” (Hit Red/Capitol Nashville) Keith Urban sings eagerly about “waiting on the sun to go down” in “Long Hot Summer,” one of the friskier tunes on his concise new album. Another song, “Shut Out the Lights,” has him advising a quarreling partner to “wait ’til the morning” to sort things out. That’s two versions of a daylight watch, from two ends of the romantic spectrum, and …
