The Inevitable Breakups – No Wonder You’re So Beautiful – Review

August 16, 2004

The glossy guitars and hand-clapping on The Inevitable Breakups’ debut EP brings to mind hits like “867-5309 Jenny” and “Is She Really Going Out With Him?”

Matt Pond PA – Four Songs – Review

August 16, 2004

Though the first two entries aren’t anywhere near the band’s best moments (even the production is shabby), the two quiet closers make the EP worth the trip.

Clearlake – Cedars – Review

August 16, 2004

Not since The Delgados’ Hate have I heard an album so solid with marvelous structures, every hook and riff irresistible. They bloom, song after song.

Actionslacks – Full Upright Position – Review

August 16, 2004

Tim Scanlin likes hooks and melodies, and he makes sure you know it. Whether it’s a phasing keyboard line or a shout, the listener will not be able to resist.

Roy – Big City Sin and Small Town Redemption – Review

August 9, 2004

Roy benefited from their tour with The Weakerthans. A sense of growth permeates this LP. Somewhere between later-era The Promise Ring and The Replacements.

Dennis Young – Old Dog: New Tricks – Review

August 9, 2004

Take equal measures of Roger Waters, world music, and goofy optimism, and stir. Place in a small, artsy venue and add aging hippie audience.

Ad Frank – A Lotta Devotion – Review

August 9, 2004

Mix Blondie with John Mayer, hop on a bike and chew some gum. Funky with a heartbroken voice and ’80s hooks: Somewhere between folk, rock, and Talking Heads.

Statistics – Leave Your Name – Review

July 26, 2004

Beautifully arranged piano and guitar interplay blended with the bittersweet vocals create a wholly breathtaking and engrossing album that I fell in love with.

The Get Up Kids – Guilt Show – Review

July 26, 2004

Guilt Show is a perfect mix of the reckless pop thrill of The Get Up Kids’ classics and the subtle shifts in tone, tempo, and style that defined On a Wire.

The Dishes – 3 – Review

July 26, 2004

The tunes are there, the playing hits notes and beats hard enough to bloody any nose, and the recording is great.
