[Back to the Beginning] Peter Murphy’s Should the World Fail to Fall Apart vs. Ninth
Posted on June 10, 2011 | 2 CommentsI’m so fucking tired of comparing music that sounds the same. There. I said it. I fucking hate it so much, I want to shoot myself in the face and put myself out of my misery. I suppose when some rock musicians get to a... -
Exclusive Interview With Truth And Salvage Co.
Posted on June 3, 2011 | No CommentsPersonally they had me at "we have beards and wear sunglasses" but the fact that they play a mean blend of Bluegrass, Blues, and Country certainly helped matters. -
Back to the Beginning: Flogging Molly’s Swagger vs. Speed of Darkness
Posted on June 3, 2011 | 1 CommentAs a general music appreciator, I find it hard to fault a band for sounding like themselves, especially when that band identifies itself with or typifies a certain genre. When I consider myself a fan of such a band, I get pretty invested in that... -
Coachella To Go Two Weekends
Posted on May 31, 2011 | No CommentsHeat is also a huge factor at both festivals, and they were both later in the calendar this year then they were last year. Weekend two could set records for heatstroke. -
Back to the Beginning: New Kids on the Block vs. Backstreet Boys vs. NKOTBSB
Posted on May 27, 2011 | 4 CommentsLove them or hate them, but boy bands have pretty much climbed into the established ranks of pop music and will stay there for the foreseeable future. Whether manufactured through auditions with music studio execs or producers, brought together as siblings through parents’ encouragement, or... -

Posted on May 20, 2011 | No CommentsAs I do more of these Back to the Beginning columns, I’m becoming increasingly convinced that there’s some sort of movement in the music industry. Someone, probably several somones, is telling established music artists, “Make music like you used to! Go back to the sound... -
Back to the Beginning: Stevie Nicks’ Bella Donna vs. In Your Dreams
Posted on May 13, 2011 | 1 CommentAt a recent happy hour this week, I mentioned to a group of friends that I was listening to the latest Stevie Nicks album. I offered some preliminary thoughts on the album, and one of my friends, picking up the thread, responded by affecting an... -
Back to the Beginning: Beastie Boys’ Licensed to Ill vs. Hot Sauce Committee Part Two
Posted on May 6, 2011 | No CommentsAbout eight years ago, I was going through a bunch of old photographs of myself, and saw a gawky, geeky teenager with a full head of hair and terrible clothes, mugging for the camera with a few friends or family. In a full two-thirds of... -
Back to the Beginning: Steve Earle’s Guitar Town vs. I’ll Never Get Out of This World Alive
Posted on April 29, 2011 | No CommentsI had a harder-than-usual time writing this article. It wasn’t because I particularly dislike Steve Earle; to be honest, I rather like him and the music he makes. It’s just… Well, not to put to fine a point on it, but I believe that Steve... -
Back to the Beginning: Bad Religion’s How Could Hell Be Any Worse vs. The Dissent of Man
Posted on April 22, 2011 | No CommentsI was one of the legion of fans of a pseudo-suburbanite “punk” band that started at my high school. In fact, I was such a fan that I bought their six-song EP on cassette tape. (Get off my lawn.) It was… good? I liked it...
