Mind And Skin

Healing time again, as the original losing loser - and Dinosaur Jr and Sebadoh stalwart of course - is back in solo mode after quite a long hiatus with a short ep on the Joyful Noise label. Nothing new under the sun really, but the songs are strong and that's what counts in the end. Hey hey...

Lou Barlow - Anniversary Song

The Vampire Blues

"Energy vampires, crawling out of the wall, they want to steal my vitality, they want to drink it all..." A draculian six pack for your listening pleasure. Garlic and crucifixes at the ready, 'cause here they come.

Colour Me Pink

"Hot pink volcano in the heart of the tornado, is shaking the lemonade tree..." That´s right, here´s one more hand picked, hot pink six pack to turn you on. In this installment of Colour Me, the Kirkwood brothers see mirages left, right, and center, Grant Hart mourns a junkie friend, while Blonde Redhead space out under a blue blue sky. Plus: sweet Gene Vincent´s got it all, except the lady he wants of course, Lou Barlow´s Sebadoh pays a heavy tribute to Nick Drake, and Blitzen Trapper goes glam in pink padded slippers. Dig it?
