New releases I'm on this week:
On his new album Tree of Forgiveness , John Prine shows that despite not releasing new music in 13 years and now being 71 years of age, he is still a national treasure. Just a fantastic album of excellent songwriting. After reading Reaper's posts about it for a long time, I finally decided to delve into the world of modern metal. Now, I'm still not a metal head by any means, but a few bands have stuck with me. One of those is Panopticon. I've loved pretty much every album he's released (it's a one man studio project, and he plays all instruments). The latest release, The Scars of Man on the Once Nameless Wilderness, is no exception. There's just something about the folk music and natural elements that are woven throughout this music that makes it really beautiful and emotional. Yes, beautiful and emotional, metal. I know people shit on rap these days, and there is a lot to shit on. Between mumble rap and soundcloud rap, the genre has some pretty wack shit happening. That being said, there are some great, great artists out there currently. One of them is Chicago's Saba. His new album CARE FOR ME, details his relationship with his uncle/friend/mentor who was tragically stabbed and killed on a Chicago subway over a silly altercation over a coat. The album is equal parts sad, angry, and joyful and well worth listening to. Finally, the new Cardi B isn't crappy. It's actually pretty damned good. |

Actually, as I type this, I've been capturing a bunch of brother's old records for him and converting them to MP3, so I've actually been "spinning" tunes. So far I've done two Book Of Love albums, Moev, Die Juz, Xmal Deutschland, a Ministry 12", and a band called Moral Crux, which was a not very good punk band from Ephrata, WA.
Right now, I'm doing a Man Or Astroman? album. It's a pretty cool purple vinyl. |

Ab
So Freaking Lutely Some major American act needs to sign them up as openers for a US run, that was outstanding... I'm sincerely always amazed at just how much Japan took to American culture I guess if Americans cant put the swag back in rock n roll, then 4 Japanese women can |

Hot Japanese girls + legit hard rock = total cash cow In all sincerity I'm not the most up to date guy on national hard rock acts these days... but I sure as hell love Greta Van Fleet, they're getting back to the roots bless their hearts Its no wonder they're opening for GNR over in Europe for a few gigs |

His guitar work speaks for itself here... |
