Album Description
2009 release, the fourth album by Seattle's prolific and sacred Intelligence. Fake Surfers is destined to change your whole outlook on Pop music. As with 2007's Deuteronomy, The Intelligence has employed In The Red house producer Mike McHugh at the Distillery to hone their edge to its sharpest yet. The possibility of an Industrial/Pop music crossover seems as unlikely as a Black Metal/Country conglomeration, but on this album, The Intelligence introduces a whole new spectrum of sonic awareness cleverly buried under little piles of dirt, with glimmering specks of brilliance poking through. |

by Thee Oh Sees
2009 release from this outfit led by John Dwyer, formerly of Coachwhips, Yikes, etc.) If you like what you see, do yourself a favor and check out this newest release from Thee Oh Sees. "Newest" because they've only been around for six albums--albeit in different incarnations, under several different names (OCS, the Oh Sees, et al.) with several different sounds. Formed in the wake of his more volatile commitments, Thee Oh Sees started as an extension of Dwyer's softer side. Their early...

by Blank Dogs
Blank Dogs is actually singular-it's the insanely prolific one-man band of Mr. Blank Dog. Not too much isknown about the guy behind the bedroom new wave / pop / punk act and he's usually covering his facewith masks or bedspreads, but that's fine. The sound is Joy Division vocal lines with The Cure's synth and guitar melodies filtered through ancient,submerged keyboards and eroded recording equipment. And that voice? All the feedback in the world can'thide his knack for melody. Blank Dogs has...

| Deuteronomy
by The Intelligence
If musicians painted images with their instruments, The Intelligence's soundscapes would be set in a grainy, ash-gray world, among piles of scrap metal and busted machinery, with discarded computer parts blinking in cobwebbed corners and factories belching out toxins at irregular intervals. It'd be a black-and white wasteland of humanity, a post-apocalyptic industrial revolution, warmed only by the distant loops of a delayed, disembodied guitar riff. At the center of it all would be Lars...

| The Eternal
by Sonic Youth
After years on Geffen Records, Sonic Youth return to an indie label with their sixteenth studio album. "The Eternal" is a supercharged rocker, recalling aspects of the Evol-Sister-Daydream Nation holy trinity, but with cleaner, louder production and more straightforward momentum. With Pavement's Mark Ibold joining on bass, and producer John Agnello back at the controls, "The Eternal" takes the melodic songwriting of 2006's "Rather Ripped" and slams down the accelerator pedal. Initial pressing...

| Alice & Friends
by Box Elders
2009 release. Box Elders is the brainchild of brothers Clayton and Jeremiah McIntyre, who began making music in Friday night goof-off sessions that originally featured their mom on drums. Adopting a name from the bugs that infested their house, they started gigging around Omaha, Nebraska, and soon added drummer Dave Goldberg, who signed on after catching the band at a free performance in a local park. Rather than search for a fourth band member, the McIntyres suggested Goldberg play both drums...
