Check out "Pushing Years" and "Hold on to Your Anger" on their My Space. "My Ship is Coming In" is another good one - Bowie-ish with a kind of updated "yacht rock" sound (in the best possible way).Nickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06447803775116067029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29345538.post-51531568595830385802009-11-22T00:21:00.923-05:002009-11-22T00:21:00.923-05:00that&#39;s nice.. keep it up.. :)infonerdtoo!

I saw them over a decade ago in England, and they were explosive. I&#39;m not surprised they can still deliver live. As I said in the review, the album&#39;s limitations might have been down to production issues rather than any lack of ability on their part.nickparkersoundhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00437450478098720370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29345538.post-17638165494248585592009-11-17T17:47:36.307-05:002009-11-17T17:47:36.307-05:00Too bad you didn&#39;t get to review the Manics when they played the Paradise last month (October 8th)- they were killer live!

Unbelievable is right. Thanks for reposting this. Have been meaning to get to this for a while now, glad it&#39;s still up. This does not sound like 1962. Very ahead of their time, in my humble opinion. Enjoyed this a lot!

Blind Pilot returns to Boston to play the Middle East Upstairs on Monday 11/16 with Laura Veirs. Should be delightful as it will be an earlier set on my favorite small stage in Boston.Ryan Spauldinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18401858408851940636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29345538.post-45875566610364488402009-11-13T21:38:46.902-05:002009-11-13T21:38:46.902-05:00God I love that Blind Pilot song and video.<br />But it is so hard to listen to with the youtube compression.<br /><br />Bummed I opted out to see As Tall As Lions instead of Blind Pilot. ATAL were great but I think I might have enjoyed BP more.<br /><br />Ah well, next time.

I have followed REM since the Chronic Town EP and it&#39;s been a while since they have sounded this...jangly? The samples show them to be in fine form and sound as if they&#39;re having fun playing the oldies. To me, REM has always been able to maintain a high level of writing and playing, along with longevity, not found much these days. Great band!thevandalstookmyhandlenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29345538.post-69777738505306370432009-11-01T18:30:56.278-05:002009-11-01T18:30:56.278-05:00I love Dinosaur Jr. but it is definitely not the format where Lou shines his brightest.

Definitely one of my favorite bands - and probably the best band I&#39;ve ever seen live. I&#39;ve seen them 3 times in the past six months - whenever they&#39;re in Detroit, I will be there! (and perhaps Chicago &amp; Cleveland, as well)...

Two strong minds in relatively tough times trying to work together to create what they hoped (and became) a masterpiece.<br /><br />Tweedy IS Wilco really, and I think there just wasn&#39;t room for Jay in the co-Wilco role.<br /><br />I was sad to see him leave but I can understand why.dirklerhttp://dysonsound.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29345538.post-22229896626995931212009-10-20T10:39:25.172-04:002009-10-20T10:39:25.172-04:00great shots as always.
