I haven’t done one of these in a while, so here we go. The Sheila Divine is a band we first heard while waiting in a club for a Frank Black show. We heard the track Hum (below) and it was so awesome I had to find out who it was. I asked around and [...]

Alkaline Trio : This Addiction — I think it’s not as cheesy-bad as the previous one, but portions still verge on self-caricature (Draculina). AT3 frequently treads dangerously close towards self-caricature land, so this is no big surprise. The guitar work sounds a little poppier, cleaner even and there is even a song with horns. If [...]

Go go oxford comma! Ahem. Anyway. So! I’ve always been somewhat of an evangelist — but not in the religious sense (although I did go through a phase that could be said to approximate that O.o).

We’re not done with the 00′s yet — so we’ll get to that later. Here’s my question — does anyone know of a song a) as good as No Surrender, sonically, lyrically and thematically (within the quality boundaries of the decade) with b) a title direct, yet powerful enough that one wouldn’t necessarily be embarrassed [...]
