![[Image: 200px-SlowClubYeahSo.jpg]](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/3/3b/SlowClubYeahSo.jpg/200px-SlowClubYeahSo.jpg) Brit band formed in 2006 consisting of Charles Watson and Rebecca Taylor with their debut album. Got their start doing jingles for commercials and a couple of ep's. While the slower tracks have a folk/rock sound with some nice harmonies, the up tempo numbers really rock. A good mixture of tempo. The name similarity leads me to a Slow Season comparison on the slower tracks. A lot of indecisive tracks for me, thus the .5's, meaning with more play they would surely move up. Giving Up On Love is the first single. I LIKE THIS ALBUM Worst Track - Because We're Dead Best Track - Sorry About The Doom I agree, you were right to say weâre doomed Cause there isnât a chance that Iâll get to be in your arms soon Cause Iâm back on the road now And there is nothing that we can do I have to find a way to make the days pass soon We spend our time looking for which one fits best And in the morning I am waking And Iâm wondering how itâs me who ended up like this Cause Iâm the one who said it would be easy Now Iâm the one whose feeling worst Cause I agreed that I would never be put first And I know Your heart is beating slow And out of time with mine So now Iâll say goodbye 1) When I Go - 2.5 - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LPb9vhK3cY4 2) Giving Up On Love - 1.5 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImjP5jNhPoM 3) I Was Unconscious, It Was A Dream - 1.5 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_LG2XWK86Q 4) It Doesn't Have To Be Beautiful, Unless It's Beautiful - 2.0 - video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9akkn2hrgs 5) The Is No Good Way To Say I'm Leaving You - 1.5 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWkMMvbfFqI 6) Trophy Room - 1.5 - video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2dZSHToVGc 7) Because We're Dead - 1.0 - video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkH9hfkCbDc 8) Dance Till The Morning Light - 1.5 - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGlulic6BwU 9) Sorry About The Doom - 2.5 - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDmDjx8i8J0 10) Come On Youth - 1.5 - video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cq9jwMY0zQY 11) Apples And Pairs - 1.5 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8CQaHGuU6Q 12) Our Most Brilliant Friends - 2.0 - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIFDD79ED7c Average Rating - 1.7

A damn good attempt here, with his second solo album. I guess the Wallflowers are gone for now, as their contract has expired. That leaves Jakob to pursue, probably whatever he wishes. Some background vocals from Neko Case and produced by T-Bone Burnett here. Jakob switches to Wallflowers producer T-Bone after trying out Rick Rubin on the first solo effort. Mostly good songs here for me with only one track that I didn't care at all for. A couple of good studio live clips on #'s 1 and 5. The others are not too good. No audio clips due to those stupid youtube restrictions. I LIKE THIS ALBUM Worst Track - Standing Eight Count Best Track - Nothing But The Whole Wide World Nothing but the whole wide world to gain nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world to gain Iâm here on the blacktop The sun in my eyes Women and country on my mind Bolting me out Over the borderline Now thereâs no more love loss and no more shame No more digging holes or graves Nothing to lose but rivets and chains Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain Nothing but the whole wide world to gain nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide world to gain nothing, nothing Got nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world to gain Was born in a stable and built like an ox Down in the pastures I learned how to walk Mama, she raised me to sing and just let âem talk Said no rich manâs worth his weight in dust Bury him down same as theyâll do us God wants us busy, never giving up He wants nothing but the whole wide world for us Nothing but the whole wide world for us nothing, nothing Well thereâs nothing but the whole wide world for us nothing, nothing Well thereâs nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world for us We ainât got no money, canât get no love Never was too good at either of âem Iâm here for adventure whichever way it comes But what good is an angel that wonât catch up Free falling now and Iâm ready enough I give my tears and I give my blood I give nothing but the whole wide world for one Nothing but the whole wide world for one nothing, nothing Give nothing but the whole wide world for one nothing, nothing Give nothing but the whole wide, whole wide world for one 1) Nothing But The Whole Wide World - 3.0 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9J8IlQQoyHQ 2) Down On Our Own Shield - 2.0 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXAI_vk6ZyI 3) Lend A Hand - 2.5 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-U77IzefcXE 4) We Don't Live Here Anymore - 2.0 5) Everybody's Hurting - 2.0 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0PhFXYUKaY 6) Yonder Come The Blues - 1.5 7) Holy Rollers For Love - 2.0 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WnJ1nOtQ2Xs 8) Truth For A Truth - 2.5 9) They've Trapped Us Boys - 2.5 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATKBT5F2gz0 10) Smile When You Call Me That - 2.0 11) Standing Eight Count - 1.0 - live http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4ykdFF7hW0 Average Rating - 2.1

General Fiasco - Buildings
a local band I saw a couple of years ago and I was unimpressed. But they got a record deal and have just released this first CD. Still unimpressed.

Still this is damn fine. From the label: "... a monstrous hot-rod cruise into screaming dual wah distortions powered by the poker faced Gavin/Chip rhythm section and splattered with jazzy freak-out organ and the occasional Stallones echo yelp.

Briefly a member of Smashing Pumpkins. Five years since the first solo effort, Melissa also has a gig as a professional photographer, but I guess the music came calling. This is supposed to be a concept album about Vikings and Nordic myths, although I wouldn't have known that without reading it. Not too bad with one outstanding track, which of course there is no clip for. The title track is the first single. I LIKE THIS ALBUM Worst Track - This Would Be Paradise Best Track - Meet Me (On The Dark Side) Proof... Truth... Oooh (x2) Suspect and projected I have wounded Truth be told, I've been bad Ashamed to blame horrified and over me I listened, I listened I listened my love Mister, punish me I love thee I'm guilty, I'm guilty, I'm guilty my love Chorus Meet me on the darkside enter from the inside meet me on the darkside enter from the inside he left me overseas I turn to a mouth I could please everyone has a dark side why don't you like mine Shame... Blame... Sentence to life Imprisoned by fate Shame blame, here's the shame game but I will love again Chorus Cross my heart, it's par for the course of love of love It was locality morality dictating prison trap I was following, grazing, wasting, accepting in my good girl suit i was lying and cheating, sucking and kissing in my bad girl boots Do you swear to tell the truth? And nothing but? No⦠I will love again with my good, and my bad parts Chorus Meet me on the darkside enter from the inside (repeat) 1) The Hunt - 1.0 2) Out Of Our Minds - 1.5 - video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qSn-K8JhrvM 3) Isis Speaks - 2.0 4) Lead Horse - 1.0 5) Follow The Map - 2.0 6) 22 Below - 2.5 - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gucrFqGAa3c 7) Meet Me (On The Dark Side) - 3.0 8) This Would Be Paradise - 1.0 - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwhTU7Y6k50 9) Fathers Grave - 1.5 10) The Key - 2.0 - audio http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NuU5-0yak3I 11) The One - 1.5 12) 1000 Years - 2.0 Average Rating - 1.8 |
