More Gore 2007-07-13 12:58:00 Get The Gore, the new album from the Gore Gore Girls. A great album with an awsome cover, a few songs you probably heard before, but there's plenty of great new stuff.Gore Gore Girls - Get The Gore
Standells 2007-07-12 11:22:00 From Los Angeles, Ca (not Boston, Ma), The Standells.The Standells - Dirty WaterThe Standells - The Hot One's
Black Lips! 2007-07-16 14:35:00 The annual Siren Music fest at Coney Island is this Saturday, so this week Ive decided to post some of the bands/musicians Im excited to see there.The Black
Lips - These guys are practically running the garage scene right now, theyre just that good. The main band at Siren that I want to see The Black Lips - Los Valientes Del Mundo Nuevo
Do The Milkshake 2007-07-15 00:20:00 The Oblivians, a base-less band from Memphis, TN and of the best garage punk bands of the 90s. If you like stripped down, dirty, raw, sleazy Rock n Roll you love this band.The Oblivians - Popular Favorites
Chulahoma 2007-07-14 18:24:00 The Black Keys' Ep of Junior Kimbrough covers.The Black Keys - Chulahoma
DC 2007-07-18 16:51:00 Not just another cover band, but the only cover band that matters. They have made a name for themselves being just that. They take the old standard and create something that gives justice to the original. I hope I get to see some of their set seeing as they are playing almost simultaneous to The Black Lips.The Detroit Cobras - Tied & True
Part II 2007-07-17 16:12:00 Two more artists performing at Siren..."Believe the hype: Maya Arulpragasam will save modern music." true statement about MIAM.I.A. - ArularThey've been described as Billie Holiday fronting the White Stripes, and while that doesn't begin to do justice to the Noisettes' originality, it's not a bad way to start talking about their sound. On their striking full-length debut, What's the Time Mr. Wolf?, the band moves from revved-up arty garage rock to soul and jazz-tinged balladry — sometimes during the course of one song — like it's on rails. This might not be the most natural, or expected, combination of sounds on paper, but for most of the album, it works amazingly well. - AMGNoisettes - What's The Time Mr. Wolf
New York Dolls 2007-07-20 19:41:00 "There are hints of girl group pop and more than a hint of the Rolling Stones, but The New YorkDolls
doesn't really sound like anything that came before it. It's hard rock with a self-conscious wit, a celebration of camp and kitsch that retains a menacing, malevolent edge." -AMGit seems these guys are headlining the festNew York Dolls - New York Dolls
Part IV 2007-07-19 16:01:00 Philadelphia indie pop act Dr. Dog is part of a long tradition of D.I.Y. pop oddballs who blend unapologetic '60s pop worship with lo-fi recording techniques and a complete disregard of current trends.- AMG While that might not give you the impression of a great band, they really are. We All Belong is one of the best albums of 2007 thus far. Dr. Dog - We All BelongIndie rockers from Colombia, MO.I have yet to make a full decision on whether or not I like this band.White Rabbits - Fort Nightly

68 Comeback 2007-07-23 21:30:00 Packed to the brim with 24 tracks of prime high-energy lo-fi rock & roll, Golden Rogues Collection captures '68 Comeback's first year of recorded existence (1993-1994) on one handy disc. All their early singles — mostly covers of rockabilly and R&B nuggets by the likes of Charlie Feathers, Jimmy Reed, and Johnny Otis and originally released by a variety of independent labels — are present and accounted for.-AMG68' Comeback - Golden Rogues Collection

Reatards 2007-07-27 22:27:00 Jay Reatard and his band from Memphis Tennessee. Chaotic, relentless, explosive rock’n'roll!The Reatards - Not Fucked Enough
Link Wray 2007-07-26 20:27:00 The original guitar hero Link Wray. This comp. includes some of his best known hits: Hidden Charms, Fat Back, I'm Branded, Run Chicken Run, and of course Rumble.Link Wray & The WrayMen - Early Recordings
Entertainment 2007-07-30 17:57:00 Entertainment! is one of those records where germs of influence can be traced through many genres and countless bands, both favorably and unfavorably. From groups whose awareness of genealogy spreads wide enough to openly acknowledge Gang of Four's influence (Fugazi, Rage Against the Machine), to those not in touch with their ancestry enough to realize it (rap-metal, some indie rock) — all have appropriated elements of their forefathers' trailblazing contribution. Its vaguely funky rhythmic twitch, its pungent, pointillistic guitar stoccados, and its spoken/shouted vocals have all been picked up by many.-AMGGang of Four - Entertainment! Read more:Entertainment
Songs The Lord Taught Us 2007-08-02 14:09:00 Conjuring a fiendish witches' brew of primal rockabilly, grease-stained '60s garage rock, vintage monster movies, perverse and glistening sex, and the detritus and effluvia of 50 years of American pop culture, the Cramps are a truly American creation much in the manner of the Cadillac, the White Castle hamburger, the Fender Stratocaster, and Jayne Mansfield.-AMGThe Cramps - Songs The Lord Taught Us
Superfuzz Bigmuff 2007-08-01 13:11:00 Garage/punk/grunge call it what you want..."Mudhoney were truly the band that made the '90s grunge rock movement possible. Mudhoney were the first real success story for Sub Pop Records; their indie-scene success laid the groundwork for the movement that would (briefly) make Seattle, WA, the new capital of the rock & roll universe; and they took the sweat-soaked and beer-fueled mixture of heavy metal muscle, punk attitude, and garage rock primitivism that would become known as "grunge"-AMGMudhoney - Superfuzz Bigmuff Plus Early Singles

The Hardest Walk 2007-08-03 13:00:00 Though it doesnt compare to their great first album, The Hardest Walk is still worth a listen. Soledad Brothers - The Hardest Walk
Tube City! 2007-08-07 16:26:00 Tube City!: The Best of The Trashmen adds their Garrett singles to their lone 1964 album Surfin' Bird. That classic single is here in all of its raw, unfettered glory, and while it does tend to overshadow the rest of the Trashmen's output, the collection shows that their other work was also strong. Their covers of "Miserlou," "It's So Easy," and "Money (That's What I Want)" reflect the band's roots, and aren't overly respectful of the original versions, while "My Woodie" and "Kuk" are respectable surf-pop songs. The Trashmen's instrumentals also fare well, particularly "Tube City" itself , the flamenco-surf of "Malaguena," and "Bird Dance," a silly, tiki-bird infested bid to follow up the success of "Surfin' Bird." "Bird Dance Beat" follows suit, but songs like "Bad News," "Whoa! Dad," and "Real Live Doll" have as much energy, but a little more originality. While it's not as complete as the four-disc box Bird Call!: The Twin City Stomp of the Trashmen, Tube City!: The Best of
Neighborhoods 2007-08-06 14:38:00 From Boston one of my favorite power pop groups, The Neighborhoods. These guys shared the stage with The Speedies, The Busy Signals, and The Baby Shakes at Radio Heartbeats Power Pop Fest back in March. But the show sold out before I bought my ticket :(.. Well Im looking forward to going to the next years festThe Neighborhoods - The High Hard One
Dead Milkmen 2007-08-10 13:54:00 From Philadelphia, PA 80s punk band The Dead Milkmen. It may not be deathless, but 1984's Big Lizard in My Backyard is that rarest of beasts a collection of rock & roll silliness that outlives one playing. That mid-'80s favorite "Bitchin' Camaro" already demonstrated that ability plenty of times over. Portraying two guys yammering about Doors cover bands and "going down to the shore" before finally getting to the main point — the way-cool car of the title — it somehow finds the lost gap between pseudo-jazz grooves and punky snottiness. As left field a fluke hit single as it gets, its mix of bad taste, rock-star mockery and stoner humor still works well. As a whole, the album shows that the Milkmen know their rock & roll history, whether tackling serious issues with sarcasm or just aiming for straight-up silliness - amgThe Dead Milkmen - Big Lizard In My BackyardA step up from the good but not great Eat Your Paisley (2nd album), Bucky Fellini begins with a parody of the bandmembe
Cross Road Blues 2007-08-09 15:13:00 If the blues has a truly mythic figure, one whose story hangs over the music the way a Charlie Parker does over jazz or a Hank Williams does over country, it's Robert Johnson, certainly the most celebrated figure in the history of the blues. Of course, his legend is immensely fortified by the fact that Johnson also left behind a small legacy of recordings that are considered the emotional apex of the music itself.-amgRobert Johnson - The Complete Collection Read more:Cross

Preachin' The Blues 2007-08-09 00:19:00 Son House's place, not only in the history of Delta blues, but in the overall history of the music, is a very high one indeed. He was a major innovator of the Delta style, along with his playing partners Charley Patton and Willie Brown. Few listening experiences in the blues are as intense as hearing one of Son House's original 1930s recordings for the Paramount label. Entombed in a hailstorm of surface noise and scratches, one can still be awestruck by the emotional fervor House puts into his singing and slide playing.-amgMartin Scorese Presents the Blues

New Bomb Turks 2007-08-13 15:33:00 Most garagepunk fans have heard of these guys. But for those that havent heres and introduction to their music...Destroy-Oh-Boy! is the kind of full-on flamethrower album that could make the most jaded cynic believe once again in the curative powers of punk rock. On this set, the New Bomb Turks combine 1950s and 1960s roots rock at it's rawest, '70s punk at it's snottiest, and '80s hardcore at it's most intense. Then they filter out what's lame, put the good stuff together, and send it down the track at 150 miles per hour. The results are wild, frantic, and thoroughly enjoyable; Jim Weber's fuzzy guitar communicates nearly as much through the power of downstroke as Johnny Ramone himself, bassist Matt Reber, and drummer Bill Randt push the horsepower into the red with a fury that is a wonder to behold, and Eric Davidson proves he's one of the great frontmen of 90s punk: smart, funny, wise-ass when he wants to be, and possessing a genuine sense of purpose. From the moment they cr
In Mass Mind 2007-08-12 16:06:00 I recommend this album to any music fan those who like garage, soul, indie, punk, funk, gospel you name it this band will appeal to everyone. Check out other albums by them, they are such an amazing band. The music speaks for itself there was no review out there that came close to describing their music.The Make-Up - In Mass Mind
