Troy Michael
Born in a small Alabama town, singer songwriter Allison Moorer has had music in her blood since the day she was born.

"Of The Blue Colour of The Sky is probably the most direct and melancholic record we've ever made, both lyrically and thematically," says Damian Kulash. "The inspiration behind the heaviness comes from the fact that we were all going through tough times, both personally and also on a global level. This record is about trying to find hope in what feels like hopeless situations."

The leap from banging around on the your dad’s spare drum kit in the basement to backing up Bruce Springsteen night after night is almost too surreal for even James Thurber to dream up for Walter Mitty. But 19-year-old Jay Weinberg – son of legendary E Street drummer and Conan O’Brien band leader Max Weinberg – did just that this past summer, when he was asked to fill in for his dad on Springsteen’s recent European tour. Not bad for a kid who started playing drums less than five years ago.

Looking at the list of Tegan and Sara Quin’s accomplishments in 2009, it’s more a question of what they did not do. Yet, in the midst of their performing, writing, traveling and everything else, Sara found the time to talk about their recent adventures.

Chad Price has had a pretty impressive career so far. As front man for the pop-punk band All, he helped inspire a slew of teens to write three-minute punk songs. He then took time to stand in the spotlight as singer for the equally influential alt-country band Drag the River. Price has just added another line to his growing resume: solo singer/songwriter.

As a great singer/songwriter once warbled, “She's opens her mouth to speak and what comes out’s a mystery. Thought about, not understood … she’s achin’ to be.”

"Are you serious?" asks Billy Jeans. "Have you ever been serious? Because, I haven't. Are You Serious? is a 90 MPH Astroglide Slip N' Slide through Keanu Reeves' butthole. To jam the record is to go tubin’ down the Slime Pipeline with Malibu the American Gladiator, a couple of beautiful babes and a case of 30 Stones. Someone is bound to spew, but it'll be worth the ride. The songs are short and fast and mostly about partying."

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club has been around since 1998 ... wow ... I never thought they had much in terms of staying power.
You gotta love an indie band that doesn’t try to coat their pop songs in faux hipster swagger.
This album contains the audio tracks from the spectacular DVD Bowie put out in 2004 to chronicle the “Reality” tour.
Diversity rules the day when it comes to Converge’s latest, Axe to Fall. If you are of the group of Converge fans that think you have heard it all before, then you obviously have not heard this disc.
Don’t ask me how, but The Cribs’ fourth album Ignore the Ignorant outsold a couple of The Beatles’ re-issues.
If you are anxious to hear a Rolling Stones LP that you have never heard, then here you go.
This sophomore effort finds Kimberly Morrison and Jesse Lortz expanding their sound from their folk rock debut to add a more polished recording.
Jerin Falkner is a singer/songwriter primarily known for her acoustic material. However, for her fourth release Pyro Aesthetic, the talented musician spreads her wings and escapes being pigeonholed.
With their second album, Brand New Blood, the Feral Children show that they’ve got more of the creative lyrics and dark tension where the first album came from.
The second album has an increased emphasis on penis jokes and techno rhythms.
Much of the band's harder edge has gone, but that’s not saying these guys (and girl) forgot how to write a great hard rock song.
This type of pop music is as aggravating as it is numbing. It left me with the feeling that I was sitting in a reception area waiting for the nurse to call my name.
