MIA Transforms Into “/\/\ /\ Y /\”
Like its simplistic album title, /\/\ /\ Y /\, heretofore to be referred to as Maya (because it takes a lot of fucking effort to type out the hieroglyphic emblem), opens with the equally simplistic, fifty-seven second “The Message.” Though I...

Lipstick Politics an energetic affair for Harris Grade
It’s time for a spotlight article on a local band I’ve seen a few times in the past couple months. It’s always good to see bands do things themselves, without a label, and Los Angeles-based band Harris Grade is one of those bands. They...

Warped Tour 2010 Ventura!
Ah yes, the Vans Warped Tour. As the date approaches in our town, a familiar mixed bag of emotions comes over us. For those, say perhaps, in their quarter life comes a series of questions to ponder: What is 3OH!3, and why is it on the lineup –...

Tuesday Ten: First Half of 2010
So it’s no secret that the first six months of 2010 have been absolutely saturated with great music. In fact, attempting to compile an AOTY list counting only January through July would be tremendously difficult, much less the best songs. Of...

The Stone Foxes cause quite a stir with new album Bears & Bulls
San Francisco’s own The Stone Foxes release their second album, Bears & Bulls, this week, and it’s chock full of rip-roaring, bluesy rock songs that have a strong throwback feel to them, betraying the band’s actual age. This is accomplished in...

Eminem walks a lonely road and makes a strong comeback with Recovery
I didn’t have very high hopes for Eminem’s new record Recovery when I heard about it. 2004’s Encore was pretty damn bad and a far cry from his heyday. 2008’s Relapse was alright, but a lot of the songs were uninspired and seemed like Em was...

Stars Melodrama Magic Disappears
Few bands have the skill and musicianship to be able to make listeners feel their melodrama. Even fewer bands have what it takes to make a career out of doing so. Since 2000, Canada’s Stars have been one of those few. After listening to the 2005...
