The Church – Starfish (1988) [2021, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

The Church - Starfish (1988) [2021, Remastered, Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Signing to Arista might have seemed an unusual move to start with, getting produced by L.A. studio types like Waddy Wachtel even more so. But for the Church the rewards were great — if sometimes too clean around the corners in comparison to the song-for-song masterpiece Heyday, Starfish set up the band’s well-deserved breakthrough in the States.

Joe Strummer – Assembly (2021)

Joe Strummer - Assembly (2021)

It was Joe Strummer’s good fortune that he was the frontman of one of the greatest rock bands of all time, the Clash. It was his burden that after the group broke up, he had to spend the rest of his career being judged by a standard that meant only so much to him. Very little of what Strummer did as solo artist followed the musical template of the Clash, and that was just the way he wanted it. Continue reading “Joe Strummer – Assembly (2021)”

Rivers Cuomo began plotting Weezer’s return to hard rock long before the October 2020 passing of Eddie Van Halen, but once the guitarist left this world, Cuomo decided to dub the group’s heavy 2021 record Van Weezer.

Definitely Maybe begins with a statement of aspiration, as Liam Gallagher sneers that “tonight, I’m a rock & roll star” — the words of a bedsit dreamer hoping he’d break out of those four walls and find something greater. Maybe all he could muster is a fleeting moment of stardom as he sings in front of a fleet of amps pushing out power chords, or perhaps he’d really become a rock & roll star; all that matters is he makes the leap.

OK Human is a quintessential Weezer title, a joke that camouflages sincere intent. By winking at Radiohead’s classic OK Computer, it also acknowledges that this album is inherently human music, a collection of songs that tug at sometimes complicated emotions.

Steven Wilson fans have been primed for The Future Bites since he released To the Bone in 2017. That record, and the subsequent 4½ EP, were deliberately “pop” responses to his three-album dalliance with prog — Raven That Refused to Sing, Hand. Cannot. Erase, and Grace for Drowning. In contrast to the above, The Future Bites is a slick exercise in Wilson’s oft-articulated love of synth pop and electronic music.

Everlast – White Trash Beautiful (2004) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

Everlast - White Trash Beautiful (2004) [Hi-Res SACD Rip]

White Trash Beautiful is Everlast’s third LP since he exited the House of Pain and took up the reigns of conscience-driven, streetwise roots rap. It’s been a long time coming. In music biz terms, 2000’s critically acclaimed Eat at Whitey’s was a dud next to Whitey Ford Sings the Blues’ multi-platinum success.

Cyr is the eleventh studio album by American alternative rock band The Smashing Pumpkins, released on November 27, 2020, on Sumerian Records. Produced by band leader Billy Corgan, the album was preceded by the release of ten of its songs as singles, and features a synth-pop aesthetic, with Corgan actively seeking out a “contemporary” sound during the recording process.

Alanis Morissette - Discography (1991-2020)

Pitched halfway between glossy mainstream pop and angst-ridden alternative rock, Alanis Morissette’s American debut Jagged Little Pill caught the zeitgeist of the mid-’90s, splitting the difference between Gen-X cynicism and self-help actualization.
