Settlefish – The Plural of the Choir – Review

February 16, 2005

When they’re noisy, they sound like other rock indie rock (non-screamo) bands, and when they’re soft, they remind me of other bands I wanna play instead.

Pepper’s Ghost – Shake the Hand that Shook the World – Review

February 16, 2005

Pepper’s Ghost is so pretty and shiny, displaying all the right elements of pop rock and ’70s Brit glam, but they’ve got the integrity of studio musicians.

Of Montreal – The Sunlandic Twins – Review

February 16, 2005

Always a pleasant foray into Beatles dippy psychedelic pop. They’ve had “eclectic” concept albums and can sing silly lyrics without being trendy ironic.

New York City Smoke – Hearts & Stones – Review

February 16, 2005

Ex-member of Thin Lizard Dawn, a NYC major label band I quite liked. This is heartfelt, and the world is full of earnest bands. Here’s another one.

My Epiphany – Miribilia – Review

February 16, 2005

On the label run by a guy in Thursday, and you can see why. Same melodic/anthemic indie rock with meandering guitar noodle, strong choruses, and keyboards.

Micronaut – Europa – Review

February 16, 2005

Tuneful, electronic music. From Chicago, on a Chicago label, the fourth full-length (for this project) from Sister Machine Gun frontman Chris Randall.

KHZ – Reality on a Finer Scale – Review

February 16, 2005

Female-fronted cybermetal groove. Breathy and sexy, then howling like a fuckin’ banshee. Vocals are way upfront. But she sounds hot, so she can be upfront.

Hater – The 2nd – Review

February 16, 2005

I expected more, given the all-stars: Soundgarden, Wellwater Conspiracy (same thing, what a let down), Pearl Jam, Mark Lanegan Band, Monster Magnet, and more.

Enemy You – Stories Never Told – Review

February 16, 2005

Sweet punkpop, the kinda stuff a whole generation of us miss like crazy and hate all the new “punk.”

Eleven Minutes Away – Arson Followed Me Home – Review

February 16, 2005

Part harmonied powerpop (verses, choruses, everything seconded), part screamo. Melodies are nice, there’re two of everything, and screamo can go fuck itself.
