  • Season Two of the Rock 'N' Roll Apocalypse: the Light in the Darkness
    Season Two of the Rock ‘n’ Roll Apocalypse: The light in the darkness As spring rolls around in the underground, glimmers of hope abound with vaccines, warmer weather and the gradual return of live music! On the negative is the return of mass shootings, but that is another conversation for another place between people who don’t listen to each other. One of the bright spots of the pandemic is a ton of people have spent it making music! I’m way behind on reviews, so let’s see how many I get through — more to come at a time and place that is uncertain. Jodie Treloar Sampson — I Thought I Was Dead, but I Was Really Alive (75orLess Records) The second EP from Jodie Treloar Sampson is absolutely vibrant! “Water” opens like a campfire lullaby then flows into something more. “Cotton Candy Girl” navigates the nostalgia of youth and how time changes us. It kind of reminds me of post-modern ’70s folk. Timeless is probably more accurate, but I get paid the big bucks to make up genres that don’t exist. “Pangea” rocks against the continental drifts of a past relationship with searing lines like, “All I know is what I feel and it’s all too fucking real, going to make this good as a death row meal.” My favorite is the ballad “Fits and Starts” because the sparse instrumentation of the piano and percussion allows one to sway in the glow of Sampson’s vocals. I Thought I Was Dead, but I Was Really Alive is available on all the streaming sites.

  • Alt-Nation: Breaking Through All Over
    Alt-Nation: Breaking Through All Over We start this week off with some sad news: that Dave Lamb of Brown Bird is still battling leukemia. The band has been unable to earn a living for almost a year now due his illness. Thankfully friends and fans have rallied to the cause with generous donations to help them get by in what has been a terrible ordeal. If you’d like to donate to the cause, please visit brownbird.net for more info. No donation is too small. This month, with voting for our annual music poll in full swing, I thought we’d take a look at the bands up for Best Breakthrough Act. As in the case every year, there are some newer bands on the rise, veteran figures of the scene, and some bands where I don’t know how they made the ballot. The great thing about these polls is anyone can win. It’s not always the most deserving band or even the most popular band. It’s all about who can get out the most votes like anything else in America. Anyways here are our nominees for Breakthrough Band and don’t forget to vote at www.motifri.com. Gavage Gavage’s songs are reminiscence of 1970’s punk in the vein of The Adverts, early Damned, and Rocket From The Tombs. Loud guitars, vocals with a snarl, and they even recently augmented sound by adding a saxophone. Gavage play out regularly around town, including an appearance at last year’s Rocktucket Festival. Gavage are currently working on their debut release, which they’re recording at the home studio of another nominee, Jay Berndt’s.

  • 1 the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd the Rev. Morgan S
    The Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd The Rev. Morgan S. Allen September 30, 2018 Mark 9:38-50 Come Holy Spirit, and enkindle in the hearts of your faithful, the fire of your Love. Amen. Good morning! Her parents named her “Halleluiah,” but the kids all called her, “Holly.” If she scared you then she’s sorry, she’s been stranded at these parties, and these parties, they start lovely, but they get druggy, and they get ugly, and they get bloody … They wrote her name in magic marks on stop signs and subway cars. They’ve got a mural up on East 13th that says, ‘Halleluiah, Rest in Peace’ … Halleluiah was [in the hood frat] now you finally know that. She’s been disappeared for years, but today she finally came back …i So begins “How A Resurrection Really Feels” by songwriter Craig Finn. Finn’s catalogue imagines a twenty-first century successor to William Faulkner’s Yoknapatawhpa County, trading rural Mississippi for tales of the independent-music scene stretching from Brooklyn to Minneapolis, this young-adult world of distorted guitars and hard drugs … of bartenders, band loyalties, and bad decisions. Raised a Roman Catholic, Finn narrates this “scene” with a remarkable eye for suffering and redemption, an eye trained by his own experience – he confesses, all those “killer parties almost killed me.”ii In the course of his work, Finn often returns to this character of Halleluiah,iii a neighborhood girl who meets a guy, who starts running with the wrong crowd, and, as her drug use devolves from amusement to addiction, who finds herself swept across the country until, finally, she returns.

    The History of Rock Music: The 2000s History of Rock Music | 1955-66 | 1967-69 | 1970-75 | 1976-89 | The early 1990s | The late 1990s | The 2000s | Alpha index Musicians of 1955-66 | 1967-69 | 1970-76 | 1977-89 | 1990s in the US | 1990s outside the US | 2000s Back to the main Music page (Copyright © 2006 Piero Scaruffi) Populists (These are excerpts from my book "A History of Rock and Dance Music") The gloomy mood of the USA during the wars of Afghanistan and Iraq was reflected by much of the grass-roots music of the late 1990s. The real protagonist of much of the stories was the collective subconscious of a country that was on a quest for a new identity. A sense of moral confusion permeated the sounds and the lyrics of the bands that harked back to the musical traditions of the USA. The moral center of mass had shifted, and it wasn't clear where. The languid alt-country of Washington's Canyon on their debut Canyon (2001) was emblematic of the existential lack of focus. New York's National (2) spun the allegorical tales of The National (2001) in a stately country-pop style. Sad Songs For Dirty Lovers (2003), a soap opera of ordinary misfits tinged with Lou Reed-ian expressionism and Leonard Cohen-ian existentialism, upped the ante, as did the atmospheric and solemn Boxer (2007). New York's Hold Steady, formed by Lifter Puller's vocalist Craig Finn and guitarist Tad Kubler, concocted an old-fashioned, infectious mix of hard- rock, roots-rock and power-pop, drenched in semi-biogaphical themes of ordinary blue-collar life, on Almost Killed Me (2004), Separation Sunday (2005), which is basically a rock opera, and Boys And Girls In America (2006), which contained epic tales of frustrated suburban kids anchored to solid hooks and riffs.
