Album Of The Day: The Van Pelt

- Man, I forgot just how great The Van Pelt’s Sultans Of Sentiment still is. Hard to believe this album came out eleven years ago…I feel old. For fans of Pavement, Karate, Les Savy Fav and Sonic Youth.

Album Of The Day: Pedro The Lion

I am listening to Pedro The Lion’s 2002 album, Control, for the first time in years. I had forgotten how amazing this album is. This is Pedro The Lion at their most plugged in and rocking. Control showcases David Bazan’s religious themes at their most cynical and desperate state. Bazan’s work is that of a […]

Album Of The Day - Dosh: Wolves And Wishes

OK, so I know who Martin Dosh is. I have seen him in person drum for the great Andrew Bird on two seperate occasions. He is an amazing drummer to say the least. And I knew that he had his own project as well. So, why have I waited until now to check it out? […]

Album Of The Day (Weekend): Pomegranates: Everything Is Alive

I swear I have been writing a review for Pomegranates new album, Everything Is Alive all week. I just can’t stop adding more instead of actually finishing the review. This is an album that took a while to hit me but when it did…wow. The band has truly grown leaps and bounds since their debut […]

Album Of The Day - Algernon Cadwallader

Algernon Cadwallader “Some Kind Of Cadwallader” (?)

Album Of The Day - Antlers

Antlers “Antlers” (Rorschach)

Richmond, VA’s Antlers debut self-titled LP is one of the more thrilling releases I have had the pleasure to hear lately. From ex and current members of bands like Mass Movement of the Moth! and Gregor Samsa, Antlers are forging new frontiers. LP packaging and vinyl are beautiful as well. Review upcoming.

Album Of The Day - Neil Diamond “12 Songs”

I hear you wondering out loud
Are you ever gonna make it?
Will you ever work it out?
Will you ever take a chance
And just believe you can?
Hell yeah you will
You’re gonna be okay
And you might get lost
But then you’ll find a way
Don’t go alone
Can’t be afraid
Hell yeah!

Album Of The Day - Avail “Over The James”

I have not listened to Avail in far too long. Over The James is probably my favorite Avail album and let me say, it still sounds tremendous nine years later.

Album Of The Day - Radiohead

Radiohead “In Rainbows” (Self-Released)

- Self-released…how awesome is that. I’ve listened to this twice now already. I think it is their best work since Kid A.
