Yesterday - 161 | Today +4The Smithereens - B-Sides: The Beatles (2008) → Music - Alternative - Rock![]() MP3 | CBR 320 Kbps 44100 Stereo | 25:39 | 58.11MB 2008 | Genre: Pop | British Invasion Release Note KOCH Records is happy to announce the release of "B-Sides The Beatles," The Smithereens' highly anticipated follow up to their critically acclaimed 2007 release, "Meet The Smithereens." The album will be released on September 2, 2008. The album includes some very special surprises for dedicated Beatles fanatics. For "B-Sides The Beatles," Andy White, who in 1962 played drums on The Beatles' original version of "P.S. I Love You," reprises his role as surrogate stickman for The Smithereens in 2008. The September 11, 1962 session that produced "Love Me Do" and its B-side "P.S. I Love You" featured session drummer White, with the newly recruited Ringo Starr relegated to tambourine and maracas duties. Upon release in America, the A-side shot to #1, and the B-side made the top-10 as well. "B-Sides The Beatles" also includes fantastic in-depth liner notes by Beatles author/historian Bruce Spizer, as well as "Beatle" Tommy Frangione (Joe Johnson's Beatle Brunch), and the Smithereens' own Dennis Diken.

The band consists of Matt MacDonald-vocals, Alan Clark-bass, Robert "Cheeze" Negrin - guitar, Paul "Skip" Erickson- drums, and Justin DuQue- guitar. What is the Classic Crime? History is filled with heroes that made the ultimate sacrifice and martyrs who died for their cause. Whether their actions were viewed as 'criminal' in their day was irrelevant. From those fighting against injustice to those who stood up for the folks who don’t fit in, dying for one’s beliefs or one’s art is the Classic Crime. 'Music has a profound effect on the listener. It even has the power to lift spirits and change lives,' reasons Classic Crime singer Matt MacDonald. 'If we can see our music change a life for the better, than we’ve been paid in the kind of way we hope to be.'

today 06:00 | Posted by NFO The Storys - Town Beyond The Trees (2008) → Music - Alternative - Rock![]() Artist: The Storys Album: Beyond The Trees Year: 2008 Genre: Rock, Acoustic, Country Quality: 256 kbps CBR Playtime: 39:08 min Size: 76 MB Release Notes The Swansea six-piece comprise of no less than four singer/ song-writers, adding much versatility to their melodic brand of Americana and drawing comparisons to The Eagles, The Byrds and The Burrito Brothers. Mixing the country rock harmonies of The Eagles and Crosby Stills Nash & Young with the acoustic side of Led Zeppelin and the West coast pop of The Byrds and The Burrito Brothers, The Storys have already won many fans — including Elton John, with whom they played at Swansea Liberty Stadium on 29 June. It sounds like Swansea band The Storys have done some soul searching on this their second album. Following on from the success of their 2006 debut, they re-emerge with 10 very polished, radio-friendly songs on Town Beyond The Trees. Opening track, Long Hard Road, sets the scene with Steve Balsamo’s contemplative, philosophical lyrics and those now trademark, soft Eagles-esque vocal harmonies. Best displayed in the tender title track The Storys now have some tales to tell. Track Listings 01. Long Hard Road 02. You Couldn't Make It Up 03. Evangelina 04. Alone 05. It's All We Realy Need 06.

07.09.2008 09:37 | Posted by dacook | Views 2439 | Tags Foo Fighters - The Colour and the Shape → Music - Alternative - Rock![]() MP3 AUDIO: 44100 Hz, 2 ch, s16le, VBR | 45MB | RS The album was the debut of the Foo Fighters as a band, as frontman Dave Grohl had recorded all of the first album by himself with the exception of one guitar part by Greg Dulli. The Colour and the Shape was produced by Gil Norton, who was perhaps best known for his work with the Pixies. It was loosely conceived by Grohl as a concept album which documented the beginning and end of a romantic relationship. Over the course of the making of the album, Grohl's own marriage to photographer Jennifer Youngblood ultimately ended in divorce. Chris Knight - Heart Of Stone (2008) → Music - Alternative - Rock![]() Artist: Chris Knight Album: Heart Of Stone Year: 2008 Quality: CBR 256 Kbps 44100 Stereo Playtime: 46:30 Size: 89.09 MB Genre: Country The release date for Chris Knight's fifth album, Heart of Stone, has been moved to September 2nd due to production issues. The album was produced by Dan Baird (of Georgia Satellites fame, as well as producer of Knight's widely-praised A Pretty GoodGuy and The Jealous Kind discs). This is album number six for Slaughters, Kentucky native Chris Knight, and he does what he’s done the previous five times out: write and sing like a young Steve Earle before Steve left the narratives of small town scrappers and losers behind him to take up the larger concerns of the big city and big-city politics. Chris Knight doesn’t care much for big cities or politics. His hometown, pop. 200, is all that’s left of what was once a thriving coal mining community. The coal is long gone, there aren’t any jobs, and now Jethro and Ellie Mae are liable to be cooking up a batch of meth out on the bucolic Back 40. The rootsy twang that dominates most of these songs will call to mind Ryan Adams in alt.country mode, but the songwriting is sharp, detailed, and acerbic, and if you’ve heard this music a thousand times, and you have, you haven’t met these characters before. Best of all is the devastating “Crooked Road,” the tale of a man who has lost his son to the mines and his wife to sorrow, and who now travels the circuitous mountain highways, trying to get somewhere, anywhere, all the while cursing everything in sight. Guest musicians on Heart of Stone include Mike McAdam (Steve Earle, Radney Foster) on various guitars, Keith Christopher (Georgia Satellites, The Yayhoos) on bass, Tammy Rodgers (The SteelDrivers) fiddle and vocals, mandolin and banjo and Michael Webb (The Wreckers, Allison Moorer) on B-3 organ, piano and accordion. Producer Dan Baird also contributes on guitar and vocals.The twelve songs on Heart of Stone represent a creative maturity indeed unlike anything Knight has done before. The music itself is a richly organic sonic mosaic where snarling guitars and pounding drums live alongside mournful violas, plucky banjos, and even the occasional trombone and bouzouki. Knight, who's been compared to such legendary songwriters as Steve Earle and John Prine has finally conquered his most demanding critic: himself.

There are six cuts from their self-titled duet album -- including a scorching unreleased take of "You Make My Heart Beat Too Fast"–two from Buddy's Cruel Moon, and one each from Midnight and Lonesome, Poison Love, and Your Love and Other Lies. "Take Me Back" and "Out in the Rain" represent Julie's two albums on the label, Blue Pony and Broken Things. The pair sing together on all cuts. What this retrospective accomplishes aesthetically is simple: it offers a no less than astonishing portrait of most important duet in country-rock since Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris -- no exaggeration. Buddy's wily raw instrument and Julie's grainy alto are rooted in country, blues, R&B, and rock & roll. They entwine seamlessly in whatever material they choose and turn the song out to the listener, breaking open its meaning in nuances and impressions as well as with wide open emotions that often lie on the dark side of the mirror. The music here, played expertly by cohorts like Gurf Morlix, Donald Lindley, Emmylou Harris, Sam Bush, Garry Tallent, Tammy Rogers, Larry Campbell, Brady Blade, and Don Heffington just to mention a few, become a rootsy, swirling seamless unit that not only allows rough edges to show but cultivates them and crafts an immediate knife's edge for the couple to dance out upon while ripping off the layers of skin and bone in their singing to get to the poetry that flows from the heart's blood of passion, pain, doubt, redemption, and willingness. This is a wonderfully sequenced, tough, and elegant album that, despite its lack of new material, comes off as a new offering just the same.

Cheers !Squeeze - The Complete Squeeze BBC Sessions (2CD) (2008) → Music - Alternative - Rock![]() Artist: Squeeze Title: The Complete Squeeze BBC Sessions Label: Mercury Genre: Rock Bitrate: 192kbit av. Time: 01:50:44 Size: 159.88 mb There aren't many bands that have weathered as well as Squeeze. They've notched up 17 studio albums and over 20 hit singles and were on the road for 25 years, retired and then reformed last year to do it all again. Formed in 1974, the band comfortably straddled Punk and New Wave, finding mainstream success in the 80s. The songwriting partnership of Chris Difford and Glenn Tilbrook was one of the most fruitful in UK pop history, they wrote over 1000 songs together and were considered the finest songwriters of their generation, the Lennon and McCartney of the 80s. This double CD features the complete BBC Sessions. 17 years of BBC studio recordings have thrown up some classic moments; acoustic versions of some of their biggest hits and live to air recordings, giggles and all. "We always work best when we keep things simple", said Chris Difford in 1993, "we know that in the end, it really does come down to the singer and the song". This 2CD of sessions recorded in the under-the-gun atmosphere of the BBC studios, is a fine example of just that. DISC 1: 1. Cat On A Wall (John Peel Session 1977) 3:26 2.

Now, a decade after his debut, The Best Of The Rykodisc Years collects together highlights from those Rykodisc albums as well as treasures from Josh's own personal vaults, including 7 previously unreleased tracks, to produce over 2 hours of sublime music spanning 1998-2005. The Best Of The Rykodisc Years distills the essence of what Rouse calls his "first stage". Years and musical styles may separate these songs, but ultimately they are linked through the warmth of Rouse's vioce, the conversational ease of his singing and his unfailing melodic gift. From the folk-rock of 'Late Night Conversation' to the knowing country of 'It's The Nighttime', from the smart pop of 'Feeling no Pain' to the rhythmically sly white-boy soul of 'Comeback (Light Therapy)' - each bears Rouse's unmistakable musical fingerprint. Disc 1 features 19 favourites from Rykodisc releases - debut Dressed Up Like Nebraska (1998), EP collaboration with Lambchop's Kurt Wagner Chester (1999), Home (2000), Under Cold Blue Stars (2002), 1972 (2003) and Nashville (2005). Included are 'Directions', a song from Rouse's second album that also appeared on the soundtrack for the Cameron Crowe film Vanilla Sky and '65', referring to the highway that runs through Nashville, which is where he and Wagner recorded Chester when the two were neighbours. Disc 2 opens with the six songs that comprised Rouse's 2001 EP Bedroom Classics, Vol. 1, (pressed in a limited edition of only 750 copies and now an impossible-to-find collectable) and continues with 7 previously unreleased recordings including the demos for "Suburban Sweetheart" and "Christmas With Jesus" and outtake for "Cannot Talk" Track Listings Disc: 1 1.
