Further Seems Forever - How to Start a Fire (VINYL)

By Eric Pettersson in Reviews | Comments closed

Originally released on CD by Tooth & Nail Records in 2003, this album was a surprising but good first choice for Broken Circles to begin reissuing what we consider the classics. Listening on vinyl really brings out those definitive FSF guitar tones.

Concert Review: Manchester Orchestra, The Features

By Eric Pettersson in Reviews | Comments closed

Manchester Orchestra tore up the stage with non-stop rock and roll. Arguably the best tour I've caught so far in 2010.

The Classic Crime - Vagabonds

By Michael Mayer III in Reviews | Comments closed

The pivotal third album from The Classic Crime comes out on Tuesday. Verdict? You should pick it up if you haven't already. You still have time to pre-order it and all profit has gone to the Haiti relief fund.

Solia Tera - A Flammarion Woodcut

Throw jazz, surf rock, a piano, a couple of trumpets, a saxophone, Aaron Weiss' brain, a pineapple and/or a coconut into a blender and "puree" for 18 minutes. Let sit for 31 seconds, then serve to friends.
