Joe Walsh – The Definitive Collection – CD
(Universal Records) Another collection of Joe Walsh tunes. I think this one is better than the last due to the inclusion of more of my favorite songs.

Zen Boy & Karma Girl – Who They Are And How They Came To Be – CD (Zen Boy & Karma Girl) I expected this bizarre duo to have a really crappy disc. Unfortunately, this one’s pretty good. Their chosen band image is bizarre and embarrassingly...

Zom Zoms – Yellow Rainbow – CD (Omega Point Records) There’s a very strong Devo influence on this synth intensive band. There’s also a hint of the cult band Residents in the songs as well. The release starts off good enough with synth work that...

Rob Zombie – The Millenium Collection – CD (Universal Records) Churning crunchy guitars, rhythmic industrial dance beats, macabre lyrics… It must be Rob Zombie. This best of compilation offers up some of the best Mr. Zombie’s work from his days fronting...

Zero 7 – The Garden – CD (Atlantic Records) The third album of this English band was a pleasurable listen. Each song on the album seems so different than the one before it, yet the band makes it work. The soulful female vocals of Sia, remind me of Vanessa...

Ryan Anderson – Trains Take Away Old Friends – CD (Bi-Fi Records) The cover, and even some of the songs, will remind you of Conor Oberst/Bright Eyes. Don’t let that shoo you away, because it’s certainly not a bad thing to have two of a good...

The American Plague – God Bless – CD (Long Live Crime Records) My first thoughts on hearing this music were “wow, this music is primal!” and “is their cover of perennial Motorhead fave “Ace of Spades” worth it?” The...

Aberdeen City – The Freezing Atlantic – CD (Dovecote Records) This Boston band is likely to get a lot of comparisons to great English ambient mind-rockers like Coldplay, Radiohead, and Elbow. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. Personally, I...
