Recommended Reviews

With the wealth of music that was released last Tuesday I have not had the opportunity to post reviews on every album I desired to. Sorry kids, school is starting back up and the Captain has been getting an ejumicashun. Check out these reviews on other blogs that I concur with -

Okkervil River - The Stand Ins

Allan's World gives a great review on the latest Okkervil River's release. He is familiar with the band's previous work which makes this review much more constructive than the Captain could produce.

Calexico - Carried To Dust
Horse Feathers - House With No Home

Chris over at Chewing Gum For The Ears is one of my favorite reviewers. Last week he featured a great review on Calexico's new release "Carried To Dust" and Horse Feathers' "House With No Home."

I am going to post another review or two before tomorrow. Also, stay tuned for a concert review of Delta Spirit with an accompanying interview!

The Wednesday Roundup

As a side note, I have been spending hours listening to music released this week and I have been impressed. Look forward to several reviews coming up.

For you Ra Ra Riot Canadian fans check out Andrew Maury's account of the kickoff of their Canadian tour.

Chewing gum for the ears has an extensive review on Calexico's release "Carried To Dust." This is one of the albums out this week that I have enjoyed.

TO Snob reports that Travis will be releasing their latest album "An Ode To J. Smith" on September 29th in the UK. They have already released a new video for one of its tracks.

Weheatmusic has a good podcast on music news, band interview and book reviews,

The Weekly Fizz is an interesting blog I stumbled onto that covers all things soda. As an avid soda drinker I am grateful for their contributions.
