This is the Very Best Blog Post of 2009
Oh no. Here we go again. It’s time for everyone and their mother to start making their best of 2009 lists. I really don’t know how people do it. I have trouble remembering what I ate for breakfast, much less what my favorite albums were that came out this past year. It certainly doesn’t help that I spent half of 2009 catching up on the...

Pick of the Week: No Static - Bottin
If you are anything like me you probably spent most of last month in dark theaters watching B Grade Italian Horror films. If you’re also like me you’ve always wished someone would combine the on-screen chills with the 1970s rhythm of an European discotheque.

And unlike most “funny” (or worse yet, “intelligent”) rock bands, they’re ironic, but not so obviously that they might as well be skywriters. For instance, take a look at the Spike Jonze-directed video for...

OUR SOLAR SYSTEM
When told that we’d have the opportunity to include some new and excellent songs from the album Sunshower by the NYC-based band Jupiter One, I was naturally psyched. I like how diverse their music is, and hope their current tour with Regina Spektor brings them oodles more adoring fans.
But my eyes quickly glazed over with a visit from that familiar demon, nostalgia. What...
