Nine Inch Nails and Peter Murphy - When Darkness Doubles, When Light Pours In (Georgama Bin Bush Records)
Though the prospect of PETER MURPHY fronting NINE INCH NAILS is interesting on its own, what’s even more interesting is the song selection.
26 June 2010Eddy Current Suppression Ring - Johnny Brenda's (Philadelphia, PA) - Thursday, June 17, 2010
Although I’ve seen many frontmen do this sort of stuff, this didn’t feel forced. He seemed to be genuinely possessed at times.
19 June 2010The Trashcan Sinatras with The Candles - World Cafe Live (Philadelphia, PA) - June 18, 2010
Thus, when I heard that they would be playing one of the best-sounding venues I’ve ever been to, World Cafe Live, I was stoked.
5 June 2010Iggy and the Stooges - Raw Power deluxe box set (Legacy)
This is a complete bonanza for STOOGES fans.
29 May 2010Visqueen with Beretta 76 - The M Room (Philadelphia, PA) - Sunday, May 23, 2010
Simply put, this show was an absolute blast!
15 May 2010Buzzcocks with The Dollyrots and Moon Women - Trocadero (Philadelphia, PA) - May 14, 2010
The encores, consisting of singles released in 1977 and 1978, just killed. These included “Promises,” “Love You More,” “What Do I Get” and “Orgasm Addict”, the amazing set closer.
13 May 2010The Joy Formidable with The Dig - Kung Fu Necktie (Philadelphia, PA) - Friday, May 7, 2010
Watching THE JOY FORMIDABLE perform was like being in the eye of a hurricane. In other words, they live up to the hype and then some.
8 May 2010Graham Parker and The Figgs - World Cafe Live (Philadelphia, PA) - Sunday, May 2, 2010
But on this night, it was the encore that really thrilled.
1 May 2010John Doe and Exene Cervenka - Tin Angel (Philadelphia, PA) - Friday April 30, 2010
John and Exene were both in fine form, joking with the audience liberally and telling stories about each song beforehand.
18 April 2010The Feelies - World Cafe Live (Philadelphia, PA) - Saturday, April 17, 2010
To say that this was an epic Feelies show would definitely be an understatement.
13 March 2010Rogue Wave with Avi Buffalo - First Unitarian Church (Philadelphia, PA) - Thursday, March 4, 2010
All of a sudden, the crowd stood, clapped, cheered and a good time was had by all.
