Hedwig & the Angry Inch:
[Soundtrack]

(July 2001)

The play/film behind these songs is a ready and sexy rock musical that will blow you... away. Now, the songs may be more meaningful and amusing to you if you have seen the film, but even if you have not, this bucket of glam is solid enough to enjoy on its own. Cover bands, air guitar enthusiasts and karaoke divas need not worry. From ballads about Aristotle’s origin of love to anguished woes about a botched sex change operation this album brings out the glam rocker in us all.

Serve with: Tommy soundtrack, early Bowie and vermouth on the rocks.


Okkervil River:
“The Stage Names"

(August 2007)

This band will still be standing when all the indie hipsters move on from the 80s thing to reinvent grunge, designer plaid and all. No gimmicks here, just timeless songs about pornography, commitment, suicide and being yourself. Everything from the stirring opener to the straightforward poetry of the ballads is just real. This album doesn’t know how good it is; it doesn’t need to try too hard. It’s all here: great lyrics, smart instrumentation, pure emotion and striking vocals. It’s the album you’ll keeping coming back to no matter where your tastes lead you.

Serve with: a long car ride and a date
