Say Hi: Um, Uh Ohnew

If Kurt Cobain had retained the name of his first band, Fecal Matter, and moved to New York City, perhaps things would have turned out differently.

New Radiohead Album "The King Of Limbs" Is Out Nownew

Eddie Spaghetti's 'Sundowner'new

Eddie Spaghetti’s first solo album in a half dozen years (and third overall) is a catchy klatch of eclectic country-leaning covers and two originals. Though his band, the Supersuckers, is known for punky hot-blooded rock, Spaghetti’s solo discs mine a more laid-back vibe.

Pazes' 'The Southpaw EP'new

Delivered by Pazes (aka Lucas Febraro of Brasilia, Brazil), The Southpaw EP is a moment of hybrid electronic elegance. Or maybe a tripped-out afternoon nap.

Sonic Youth's 'Simon Werner a Disparu'new

The newest release from this weathered New York City fixture is the score for the French film of the same name directed by Fabrice Gobert. The recording is a disjointed trek through classic Sonic Youth hooks, with the inevitable valleys of meandering riffs that worm their way into the wet dreams of ambient music connoisseurs.

PJ Harvey's 'Let England Shake'new

In title and content alike, Let England Shake trembles with fair measures of arrogance, doomsaying, and felicity: it dares to assign itself a not inconsiderable degree of impact, to declare a state of emergency, to be lithe and elastic enough to enliven a senior center mixer.
