A miracle of shuddering genius and shambling happenstance, Big Star’s ‘#1 Record’ weaves together the eight-miles-high jangle of the Byrds, the charisma of Marc Bolan and the diamond hard majesty of Memphis blues. Alex Chilton and Chris Bell are the shadow world Lennon-McCartney.
Having gone through hell just to get to hell, Elvis Costello’s ‘Blood And Chocolate’ is 48-minutes of shrill and thrilling score-settling leveled against past lovers, industry apostates and most of all himself. A psychic demolition derby. I hope you're satisfied what you’ve done.
Underscoring Uncle Tupelo’s role as the inheritor of the Minutemen's union-centric punk consciousness, "Graveyard Shift" is four minutes and forty seconds of quick twitch riffs, dead end jobs and a darkness that’s spread well past the edge of town. NAFTA looms. Together we burn.
LCD Soundsystem - Sound of Silver (2007)
Danceable, sleek, with a snarky sense of humour; as Murphy focuses on ageing and the transience of cool, while proudly flaunting his influences.
A glorious fusion of rock, electronica and hipster belligerence.
A modern classic.
🧵
The Replacement's 'Tim' is as powerful an evocation of working class life as any by Springsteen or Pulp. Resentment and joy dwell in nearly every detail: bus route courtships, scared-but-stalwart-single-mothers and the watering holes where every night dreams both blossom and die.
"You have to think you have the same talent level as them. I know they have draft picks and I know I'm not going to the NBA, but I know on any given night, I can compete with those type of guys."
Oakland's Jack Gohlke scored 32 points in the win over Kentucky.
All stimulation and the Attractions’ perpetual motion machine, Elvis Costello’s ‘This Years Model’ is the moment wherein he fully transmographies from tremulous folky into the manic blur of romantic obsessive, insult comedian and doom speaking prophet we'd have to learn to love.
Hubie Brown is a national treasure and this video of him dishing out sweet behind the back passes at the 5 Star Camp in 1976 belongs in the Smithsonian.
"A little mustard on that one".
A major-label throwaway turned-enduring underdog classic, Bash & Pop’s ‘Friday Night Is Killing Me’ beats the Black Crowes at their-own-Faces-conjuring game and remains the best post-Replacements solo record. Tommy Stinson muses on a life he never asked for, but can't ever leave.
It should have happened many years before.
It’s long overdue.
