Saosin – Review December 1, 2006 None of these songs are good enough for the radio, but it’s easy to like all of them equally, which itself is reason enough to toss a red flag.
Yellowcard – Lights and Sounds – Review August 25, 2006 The guitars are “harder” this time out. Gone are the violin bits that, uh, kinda separated Yellowcard from every other chipper boy band.
The Dandy Warhols – Odditorium or Warlords of Mars – Review May 5, 2006 One of their members posed nude while eight months pregnant. If you can get past that, they really are making good records.
Supergrass – Road to Rouen – Interview April 21, 2006 An interview with guitarist/vocalist Gaz Coombes
Idlewild – Warnings/Promises – Review January 20, 2006 Instead of taking the listener straight to the destination, Idlewild now take ’em around the ol’ Pecos Ruins, deserted gas stations, and a few graveyards.
Doves – Some Cities – Review June 13, 2005 Although Some Cities isn’t quite as euphorically all-conquering as their debut, Lost Souls, it’s still a slice of heaven sent from Manchester.
OK Go – Oh No – Review June 1, 2005 They’re quirky and jumpy and make yer butt wiggle, like, I dunno, Weezer or any other band who likes the Cars.
Kylie Minogue – Ultimate Kylie – Review May 30, 2005 This two disc collection is the perfect introduction to her discography, and the only Kylie compilation to span her entire career thus far.
