Cornelius - Point (2002)
If you can find a better sounding CD than this, I’ll eat my entire vinyl collection. I can’t even contemplate why you would ever listen to this on anything other than a CD or via decent streaming media.

commentsThe New Zealand-based “A Sonic Youth” podcast just keeps on dishing up truly splendid, under-the-radar, what-the-fuck-is-alternative-music-anyway, musical richness. That’s four absolutely killer references in four episodes.
commentsThis is guitar heaven for alt-rock/dirgey guitar slinger freaks. J. Mascis, as on this album, remains a true shred maestro with his trusty ‘63 Fender Jazzmaster amped up to the hilt.
commentsWho wants to listen to music when the sky is literally falling and the murky, dank flood waters are lapping at your doorstep?
commentsI heard a great song, “Popular” by this New York-based band on a recent podcast. I really needed to check them out a bit more.
commentsAnother faultless record from these Duluth-based, slow-core pioneering Mormons. (Incidentally, Duluth was also the birth place of one Robert Zimmerman). Recently picked up by Sub Pop records this is a major leap forward in instrumental layering and accessibility.
commentsRecorded in Saskatoon (Saskatchewan?) Nashville and Lyttelton, this country and western tinged folk record is a brilliantly realised collaberation between Cananadian duo Kacy Lee Anderson and Clayton Linthcium, of Kacy & Clayton, and New Zealand wunderkid, Marlon Williams.
commentsThe best of Spunk 1994-2004. 2xCD $24.95. As the blurbs says “Including rare & live tracks”. I love a good compilation.
commentsOh yeah! Parisian disco collective completely stuck in a 70s time warp. Banging out on my big B&Ws. Awesome! This evening I have been listening on:
commentsThe wonderful film “Screaming Masterpiece” introduced me to many great Icelandic musicians. There were many “wow” moments throughout this music documentary and it ultimately led me to this “band” and this astounding record.
