By - Kristi Houk Recommended if you like: Angel Olsen, Waxahatchee, Wednesday Has anyone ever made you a mixtape? Or vice-versa? Can you remember popping it in the tape deck or cd player in your 1988 Mazda 323 hatchback late in the afternoon just before sunset hoping to discover some hidden meaning in a song?

By - Nick Adrian For fans of The New York Dolls, 70s New York punk, concert films, music documentaries You might know David Johansen as being the lead singer and founder of The New York Dolls, a proto-punk NYC band in the early 1970s that helped popularize back-to-basics rock ‘n’ roll and makeup-donned glam rock.

I often introduce Citizen Kane to my students when I teach it […]
By - Jason Hamric For fans of Noisy Guitars, Kudzu, Small Towns, Working Class Heroes, Being Real and Hopes of Escaping It was almost exactly a year ago to the day that a friend suggested I might like this band Wednesday that was playing down the street at The Firehouse, “They are kind of Shoegazy” they said which was enough for me to walk down and catch the show. Little […]
