Stiffed – Burned Again – Review

June 7, 2005

Cute and fun little punk lite cover band. A handfulla the songs stick with ya, and they’re a blast to get silly to. Comparisons to Gwen Stefani are inevitable.

Seer – Review

June 7, 2005

The guy can sing, belt it out, warble and waver like Muse and The Sheila Divine/Dear Leader, and the band back him nicely, not showing off, not sucking.

Pajo – Review

June 7, 2005

David Pajo (M, Ariel M, Papa M, Slint, and Tortoise) records some intimate songs on his laptop, even singing directly into the computer. Gentle and well done.

Glue – Sunset Lodge – Review

June 7, 2005

Like scratchy old blues records, music box tinkle, a lonely trumpet soliloquy. White guy rapping usually turns me off like lima beans on a hot fudge sundae.

Eerie Von – Bad Dream No 13 – Review

June 7, 2005

Home recordings, from Tom Waits to Elvis/Doors worship, dark ballads to metallic guitar chugs over a drum machine. As weirdly cluelessly demented as it sounds.
