Japanese Heavy Rock Hits V.3 - "16:47:52..." by Boris
1 recommendation
"One of three different 7" vinyl singles as part of a series called Japanese Heavy Rock Hits. The set can be bought individually, at the time, ordering each release together would have snaged you a fourth 7" and a Boris t-shirt. Me I'm just into the cool cover design which takes the Black Metal look towards a new direction. But then again "Japanese Heavy Rock Hits Vol 1- 3" is not a heavy rock coll..."

Sonic Youth Poster: Zeloot/ Washington DC 7/6/09
1 recommendation
"Once of my favorite Sonic Youth Gig posters, ok, the image is kind of monstrous, and much more sinister than I think SY music is, yet the illustration of a woman that is enveloped in a strange organic mask in some way describes the groups dynamic. Zeloot line work and colors on this poster remind me of a lot of the Polish poster work from the 1960's and 1770's. I think it's a landmark poster a..."
Sonic Youth - Spike Press Poster: Chicago '09
1 recommendation
"So you want to know the truth, I think Kim Gordon is a genius. And it still mystifies me that Gibson hasn't made a Kim Gordon artist series guitar. But ok, I don't work there, so instead I can recommend this poster, cause it's a smart graphic representation of the one thing that Conic Youth has that other bands don't, Kim Gordon."
Sonic Youth: 1982 Group (Smith & Duvall) Tulsa '09 Poster
1 recommendation
"At some point this poster will be framed and hanging in a museum, thousands of people will get to stand around it but because of limited time and other art diversions they will really get to know it. So what I'm suggesting is that we all should take the time now to look closely at this amazing work of art before it disappears from our view."
After Robots: Blk Jks
1 recommendation
"BLK JKS (pronounced "black jacks"), The Rolling Stone Magazine said "... After Robots incorporates everything from sunny South African kwaito to art-rock shredding; the result has been compared to Sonic Youth and TV on the Radio..." "Kwa Nqingetje" was the track that caught my ear, featuring vocals that reminded me of Justin Hayward of The Moody Blues over a loose waltzing ballad punctuated by..."

"Even though grunge has become an almost dirty word, it's still pivotal to my youth and influential to many of today's greats. This photo book is probably worth browse."
Pushin' Too Hard: The Best of the Seeds: The Seeds
1 recommendation
"A few years ago I took a second glance at the movie "To Sir, with Love" and was happy to discover the movie is peppered with cool music by Manchester beat group The Mindbenders. Afterwards I went on a music quest for the same sort of sound, I soon entered the world of '60 Garage Punk, and among the nuggets electrified teenage kicks stood The Seeds. Colored in a Blues Psychedelic sound The Seeds h..."

"LEMON is “Pop Culture With A Twist”: a new breed of magazine that stakes its claim at the intersection of 60s-70s Pop and 21st century hyper-culture. Designed and produced with obsessive attention to every last detail, each issue of LEMON is pure Pop Art."
Sonic Youth Stolen Guitars
1 recommendation
"Sonic Youth Stolen Guitars, sounds like the name of a new album, but it's not. Unfortunately it's the name of a page of photographs of guitars which have been stolen from the band Sonic Youth. For some time the band has been asking that these customized guitars be returned, until then I think it would be a great idea if the guitar makers like Fender and Gibson would recreate all of these guitars ..."

Blood on the Wall - Liferz
1 recommendation
"everyone over 15 remembers the first time they heard "surfer rosa" or "daydream nation". botw clearly does too, and tries their damnedest to sound like their feedback-heavy idols. they do a decent job, too--and better still, they manage to keep a sense of humor about their hero-worshipping. another thank-god-it's-spring album (after decades of harsh midwestern winters, i moved baltimore, where ..."

Ca Plane Pour Moi ~ Sonic Youth

BOSS ~ Magik Markers
1 recommendation
"A magical and dangerous sound like a kite on fire. Notes: Magik Markers: Peter D. Nolan (vocals, guitar, piano, drums, electronics, unknown instrument); Elisa R. Ambrogio (vocals, guitar); Lee "Bruise" Ranaldo (guitar, glockenspiel). The noise-rock combo Magik Markers offered their most accessible recording to date with BOSS, released on Ecstatic Peace in 2007. The duo of Elisa Ambrogio and Pe..."
Morceaux de Choix ~ Brigitte Fontaine
1 recommendation
""Morceaux de Choix" is a collection of eclectic songs which drifts in and out of various styles. I tend to think of Brigitte Fontaine as a Jazz artist, but I'll accept that Fontaine's music is written as if it where a lyrical landscape in which Fontaine explores her quixotic expression. As for my taste this method of artistry works very well, as I always have an ear out for music which expands the..."
I'm Not There [Soundtrack]

"Who said "Imitation is the greatest form of flattery"? Was it Plato, Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Woody Guthrie, Bob Dylan? Since the beginning of his song writing carrier Bob Dylan has been imitated, interpreted, integrated, inhaled, and injected by musicians and performers from all over the world, and although Dylan himself has put the strongest imprint on the performances of his own work I find..."
Trees Outside the Academy ~ Thurston Moore
1 recommendation
"Normally I'm a Kim Gordon type, but I've warmed up to the music of Thurston Moore over the years. "Trees Outside the Academy " turns out to be a excellent album, it's got a atmosphere to it which works extremely well for making out during the day, or maybe as a sonic story to take on a bike ride."
TURA SATANA #1 - Mike Hoffman

"Based on the character "Varla" from the film "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!" (played with vicious and sexy aplomb by the one and only Tura Satana) this fab comic picks up where the Film leaves off! Yo!"

Rather Ripped by Sonic Youth
3 recommendations
"Sonic Youth are like parents are something - they can bug the hell out of you so bad you wish they'd just go away and leave you alone forever, but in the end your heart's filled with undying love and you're so grateful that they exist. "Rather Ripped" is probably my 12th or 13th most favorite Sonic Youth record, which is to say it's still one of the most beloved albums to have been released in my ..."

Attention Please by Boris

"My favorite Boris album so far. I've been driving with "Attention Please" on heavy rotation for a week before this post, and I feel that I may have to mix it in with Sonic Youth and Free Kitten at some point to see what happens."
