OMD: Synthpop Comes of Age
2008-10-16 01:34:33
OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvers in the Dark) first came to my attention when a friend of mine made me a mixtape (remember those?) of imports he picked up from Rhino Records, a GREAT record store in Claremont, CA. Up until receiving that mixtape, I had never bothered to research any artists I enjoyed, [...]


If You Do Not Know Who AC/DC Is, I Will Have To Kill You.
2008-10-13 23:57:08
I cannot stand it when I hear people say that “Rock N’ Roll is dead.” Yes, it is hard to believe, but there are still people who say that. Who ARE these people? Well, being the brilliantly tactful one that I am, I will avoid naming names… but suffice it to say [...]

Buckner & Garcia: Pac-Man Fever
2008-11-10 00:02:33
When I was in the fifth grade, I had the hippest teacher in school. Ms. Morency was the teacher that gave out cool prizes through her “Morency Express” program. She let us play the coolest games during recess (Cannonball, Butts-Up) and even let us give her shoulder massages. One of [...]

The Kills: Midnight Boom
2008-11-08 14:45:45
While flipping through the channels a few nights ago, I came across one of my favorite series called Live From Abbey Road. This Sundance Channel show is incredible in that it interviews artists as well as capturing a live in-studio performance at the legendary Abbey Road recording studio. Here’s the official website description [...]

The Black Crowes: Southern Harmony (outtakes)
2008-11-05 01:03:44
There’s no argument: The Black Crowes are one of the greatest Rock n’ Roll bands ever. E-V-E-R. If you disagree with me, then here is a three-step process in filing your grievance: 1. Go to your local City Hall and pick up form 1645-4A (make sure it’s an “A” form. Forms with no [...]

The Coming Grass
2008-11-03 13:43:23
Ever since hearing Uncle Tupelo’s No Depression album, I’ve been a big fan of the Alt. Country genre. There is something about the way Alt. Country blends country, blues, rock, punk, and folk that really “speaks” to me. I’m always on the lookout for new bands in this style, and when [...]


Coldplay: The Scientist
2008-11-03 07:38:15
When Coldplay first gained recognition, I was not impressed. I have no idea why I disliked them so much… probably because of all the comparisons to U2… and I’m sorry, but NOBODY comes close to U2, not even U2 themselves anymore. But as time went on, I started to open up to Coldplay. [...]

Elvis Presley Outtakes II
2008-11-26 00:36:14
Here is the second installment of the Elvis Presley Outtakes. I was thrilled to see the response to the first of this series… it’s great to know that The King is just as popular now as he ever was. I grew up listening to Elvis Presley records… my dad LOVED Elvis [...]

Here’s a new category I’m starting up here on TheFrontloader.com. I don’t really have any rhyme or reason for these lists, but they’re fun to write and hopefully fun to read. Everybody loves lists… it’s an entertaining way to assess what we feel sucks and what doesn’t. So for this first list, [...]

Bruce Springsteen: Fake Concert Bootleg
2008-11-23 00:01:40
I once put together a “Fake Bruce Springsteen Acoustic Concert ” for a friend of mine. This fake concert was pieced together from various solo acoustic shows and covered a lot of ground, from Darkness on the Edge of Town to Devils and Dust. I had such a good time putting it [...]
