I can’t tell you how badly I’ve been itching over the past two months to write this review. Usually if an album’s older than a month I won’t touch it because this is the internet goddamnit! If you miss something by even a week, it’s dead and …
Album Review: Morcheeba – Blood Like Lemonade

There’s a man out there, name of Brett Schewitz, one of the many I’ve met through Twitter who’s proven himself to be a stand-up guy, the kind of dude who says what me means and does what he says, which makes him pretty rare in a world of people w…
Album Review: The Dead Weather – Sea Of Cowards
Posted on 02. Jun, 2010 by slicktiger in Album Reviews, dark phoenix, dean fertita, die by the drop, fight club, horehound, jack lawrence, jack white, marla singer, michael buble raptor, no horse, old mary, queens of the stone age, sea of cowards, the dead weather, the difference between us, white stripes
If Marla Singer from the movie Fight Club started a band, it would sound like The Dead Weather. They’re dark, edgy and angry and with their second album they’ve perfected their particular brand of radio-unfriendly blues / tripped-out reggae / 70s r…
Album Review: The National – High Violet
Posted on 26. May, 2010 by slicktiger in Album Reviews, England, Nick Cave, high violet, interpol, matt berninger, runaway, streets of philidelphia, the national
Call me old school, but I have a profound respect for hard-working bands. I’m talking about the kind that take a decade or more to fine-tune their sound and get a little better with every album they release. The National released their first album in…
Top Secret Weekend

Fuck, did we get up to some crazy shit this weekend, man-o-man. I fucking wish I could tell you guys about it, but I can’t, aaaarrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh! How lame is that? It’s like starting a joke and then right at the end of it saying, ‘Umm, actuall…
Album Review: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club – Beat The Devil’s Tattoo
Posted on 21. Apr, 2010 by slicktiger in Album Reviews, drunk, good and drunk, hedonistic rock music, howl, leah, legato. what the fuck, nick jago, peter hayes, quaker sermon, royal enfield, shapiro, sweet feeling, the effects of 333, the toll
You know it’s time to get a new drummer when the one you’re using goes onstage to accept an award and is so wasted that instead of making an acceptance speech, he just stares silently at the audience for a full nine minutes. Not that I’m judging,…

I find with every album I listen to and generally I try to bend my head around at least 7 or 8 a month, I have a growing appreciation for attention to detail when it comes to song writing and producing and I think that’s why Massive Attack’s newest…

You get two kinds of people in this world – those that hear music and those that listen to music. About 80% of the world hears music. It’s something that plays in the background of their lives between dancing from one club to another, falling in lo…
album review: deftones – diamond eyes
Posted on 31. Mar, 2010 by slicktiger in Music, featured
Something about cars always unnerved me, from as far back as I can remember, but it wasn’t until I wrote my first car off that I truly understood why. Blink, just once, let your concentration lapse for the briefest moment at the wrong time and the resulting bang you hear on collision will be etched [...]
