Originally released in 2002, Divine Discontent is ... Morethe fourth album from Sixpence None The Richer, the follow-up to their highly successful self-titled album.
Lead singer Leigh Nash has described her understanding of the album title as being that "sometimes your pain and the bad things you go through in life can be good if they bring you to a better place, a stronger place in your life," that is, "discontent can be divine."Lead songwriter Matt Slocum said that there is "spiritual content" in many of his songs which come from "trying to be honest about the issues of life," while adding that "it also comes more in the form of asking questions than giving answers."The cover of Crowded House's "Don't Dream It's Over" was one of the later songs to be selected for the album. Which went on to go Top 10 on the Billboard Adult Top 40 Chart. Less

Formed in 1976, the mainstay of the band has been vocalist Charlie Harper. In May 1979, the band signed to GEM Records, a punk rock offshoot of RCA Records.

It's been said that writing about music is like da... Morencing about architecture (impossible and absurd). But what about singing about movies? Sufjan Stevens and Angelo de Augustine have paired up for a collaborative project that does just that. A Beginner's Mind is their debut album that contains 14 songs (loosely) based on (mostly) popular films. The source material is highbrow, lowbrow, and everything in between. The music is folksy, sweet, sincere and harmonically effervescent-Simon & Garfunkel with New Age flourishes. This album runs the gamut and has fun with it, even while it's songwriters remain fully rooted in the melancholy folk idioms they are known for.Daniel Anum Jasper, a pioneer of Ghanian movie poster painting, was commissioned to paint a series of new works for A Beginner's Mind. His paintings are a graphic simulacrum for the same sense of wonder, wordplay, and intrigue that shape A Beginner's Mind. By transforming old films into vital new songs, Stevens and de Augustine ask us to consider ourselves from a previously unconsidered vantage point-a new way of seeing and hearing-an exercise that's as necessary and relevant now as it's ever been.

This is the limited edition 2015 US version by Mas... Moretodon titled "Once More 'Round The Sun" on the Reprise records label 543021-1. This vinyl is considered to be in the genre of rock and styled around progressive rock, sludge metal, and hard rock. Art is a cyclical beast. The same can easily be said of Grammy Award nominated hard rock juggernaut Mastodon. The group s four members recognize the importance of life s omnipresent cycles on their sixth full-length album, Once More 'Round the Sun. The band orbits around themes of loss and rebirth, twirling a sonic spiral of its signature robust riffing, hypnotically haunting soundscapes, triage of dynamic voices, and thundering seismic grooves.The very title says something slightly different for each member. "Quite literally, Once More 'Round the Sun means a year-in-the-life," explains Dailor. "Lyrically, we were discussing things that happened to us recently, whereas in the past we looked further back for inspiration. It's about 365 days in this band. It was a tough and strange journey. We happened to be in the middle of completing a full rotation musically as everything else was going on." Less

Destroy Boys formed in 2015, when founding members Violet Mayugba and Alexia Roditis were just 15 years old, and each release has marked a period of growth and change. "Looking back, our first three albums marked the deaths of things," says guitarist Violet Mayugba. "They were soundtracks to our funerals, whether they were for our ages, our mental states. We've gone through a lot of changes as a band and as people." "The first one (Sorry, Mom) was our high school album," Mayugba explains. "On the second record (Make Room), we went to college and were saying goodbye to our childhood. On the third one, we'd just gone through COVID and, speaking for myself, I lost my entire sense of self and gained a new one."Now, at 24, Mayugba and Roditis are standing firmly on solid ground with more resolute and confident than ever in their place as musicians.

Coming January 17, 2025: A 2xLP / 2xCD repress of ... More‘Genius + Love = Yo La Tengo.’ Back in print for the first time in over 20 years, the compilation assembles more than two hours of hard to find and unreleased Yo La Tengo music from 1988 – 1995. Some reflections on the material, excerpted from Ira Kaplan’s original ‘Genius + Love = Yo La Tengo’ liner notes: ”FOG OVER FRISCO” - Oct ‘89 Georgia and I started playing this in 1989 on our acoustic duo tour (oh, how the Timbuk 3 crowd in KC loved us). Gene Holder played bass and produced the rock version at Water Music, which was then shelved until we completed it in 1991 for That Is Yo La Tengo. ”TOO LATE” - Dec ‘94 This Wire song was recorded by Roger Moutenot live at Alex the Great during Electro-pura. Mixed May 1995 by Peter Walsh at Tin Pan Alley. Listen for James’s scream. “HANKY PANKY NOHOW” - Sep ‘89 Tara helped us with this one, I no longer remember how. Recorded in the basement of our old house, featuring our microphone-shy cat on backing. vocals. Originally on the 1991 Spanish comp The Ruta 66 Album. “SURFIN’ WITH THE SHAH” - Feb ‘93 This Urinals cover is the first song we ever played live. This version recorded on the Dump Mobile Unit in the south of France where Matador sent us to write songs for a proposed musical based on the popular television program Small Wonder. “ BLITZKREIG BOP” - Feb ‘93 We gave this to a Japanese fanzine, but I have no memory which one. The arrangement dates back to our brief incarnation as a wedding band—we were much better at performing music for dining pleasure than for dancing pleasure. Less
Real Estate’s sixth full-length album Daniel was... More recorded in an ebullient nine-day spree in RCA Studio A, in Nashville with celebrated producer and songwriter Daniel Tashian. In 11 compulsively tuneful songs, they connect the uninhibited wonder of their earliest work with the earned perspective of adulthood. Martin Courtney actually learned of Tashian through his daughter, who adored an album he’d produced, Kacey Musgraves’ Golden Hour. The band reached out and spotted an instant connection despite their distinct wheelhouses—the Grammy-winning Nashville country-pop guy who’d helmed several smashes and the Northeast indie rock quintet with narcotic guitars. Real Estate had been thinking about R.E.M.’s Automatic for the People and ’90s “soft-rock radio,” the background music of their youth. Tashian helped lead them back toward it, toward an improved edition of the less self-conscious band they’d been at the start. Several days into recording, all five members of Real Estate were discussing album titles when someone suggested “Daniel,” simply because it seemed funny to bestow a human name upon a record. Was it for Daniel Tashian? Maybe. Was it a nod to The Replacements’ Tim? Possibly. Was it the sign of a band that has now been around long enough to take its music seriously without taking itself or its perception too seriously? Absolutely. Less

Illmatic is the debut studio album by American rap... Moreper Nas, released in April 1994. Often cited as one of the best hip-hop albums of the '90s, Illmatic is the undisputed classic upon which Nas' reputation rests. It helped spearhead the artistic renaissance of New York hip-hop in the post-Chronic era, leading a return to street aesthetics. Hip-hop fans accustomed to 73-minute opuses sometimes complain about Illmatic's brevity, but even if it leaves you wanting more, it's also one of the few '90s rap albums with absolutely no wasted space. Illmatic reveals a great lyricist in top form meeting great production, and it remains a perennial favorite among serious hip-hop fans. Less
"The first three are innocent in a way, becau... Morese we didn't have an audience when we were making them," Oberst says. "But from Lifted on, I was definitely aware of an audience. Lifted was well-received right away, and then everything happened with Wide Awake and Digital Ash." Those two albums came out simultaneously. And their lead singles - "Take It Easy (Love Nothing)," from the austere, remote Digital Ash, and "Lua," from the warm, folky Wide Awake - debuted in the top two slots on the Billboard Hot 100. "First Day of My Life," also from Wide Awake, would later be voted the Number One love song of all time by NPR Music's reader's poll. Bright Eyes had officially broken through. It was a heady, exciting time, but also fraughtand tense, both because of the band's careening new fame, and because of the state of the world. When Bright Eyes made their Tonight Show debut in 2006, they chose to perform none of their shiny new hits, instead delivering a searing, harrowing rendition of their caustic anti-Bush anthem, "When The President Talks To God." These days, Oberst is still amusing himself by messing with the extremes Bright Eyes baked into this era's releases, extremes that reflected the polar, with-us-or-against-us, fractious feel of the times. The reworked Digital Ash tracks, originally so clean and elegant, are, on the companion EP, full of "harmonica and mandolins - folky vibes," Oberst says. While the analogue sweetness of the Wide Awake songs have been put through a detached nihilism filter. Less

Recording for the album began during the long hot summer of 1976 at the band's KONK Studio in London. Released in February 1977, the album marked a significant shift for the band, as it moved away from the conceptual work that had characterized their early `70s output toward a return to a more conventional, mainstream rock n' roll sound with contemporary, polished production and a focus on accessible melodic rock. The new approach marked a commercial resurgence for the band, especially in the US, where the album reached #21 on the Billboard 200. Critics praised the straightforward rock sound and Ray Davies's signature songwriting, wit and observational style. Available on 180g black vinyl. Less

Their styles couldn't have been more different; Cooke smooth and sure, Redding raw and pleading. But Redding's versions of "Shake" and "A Change Is Gonna Come" show how Cooke's sound and message helped shape Redding's Southern soul sound.
