Short Wave Radio #1 Made of Brass And You Blow Into It (in rock music) Here it is, the first ever Short Wave Radio show recorded in Adam’s living room in the Bronx on Feb. 18.

Short Wave Radio #1: Made of Brass and You Blow Into It (in rock music) [ 3:09:29 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (15)Mark Lanegan Band – Blues Funeral (4AD) Another year, another Mark Lanegan-asociated album with another terrible title and album cover. I’m excited. I really am. I read at Stereogum and somewhere else its his best in years. Best probably since Whiskey for the Holy Ghost because, let’s not mess around, that was his best title [...]
A Nintendo promo with music by Boris. I’m not even really sure what the game is (this is the description: Chun Soft. NINTENDO 3DS・PS Vita用アドベンチャーゲーム「極限脱出ADV 善人シボウデス」のプロモーションアニメオープニングです) but it is definitely a 3DS game by Chun Soft and its definitely Boris. There’s also a very demented rabbit in this game. Boris is named, the only thing [...]
Wow! I almost missed this. Alejandro Escovedo is not on that Jeffrey Lee Pierce tribute album tracklist either. Maybe he’s hard to get (thought probably not harder than Nick Cave). Alejandro does the best cover that anyone’s ever done of a Gun Club song on his Room of Songs album from 2006. He does “Sex [...]

Great news! A new Tenacious D album. I can say already, this will be the greatest and best album of 2012. Take that Black Sabbath, you old fucks. Tweet This Post
Alright Tigs. I’ve got a Dremel, an old boombox, a few door hinges, a soldering iron, an old iron (the kind that gets out wrinkles), a box full of screws and nails, a DVD/VCR player that needs to be retired because the DVD portion, oddly enough, doesn’t work, my old mammoth PC tower, my old [...]
Sounds like a naked Fugazi. For whatever reason, I totally neglected the Evens first two records. Mistake. I’ve been playing both records, as well as the two new songs on repeat for the last two days. The duo has a new record on the way for later this year. Can’t wait. A new the Evens [...]
In 2011, two punk albums with similar philosophies, created on different contintents, came out. The first was lauded as one of the greatest best punk albums of modern post-post-punk times and all-around praised for breathing life into a genre (only assholes think) thought to be dead. That album was also included on many best of [...]
Mission of Burma at Music Hall of Williamsburg January 19, 2012 It’s time to stop calling Mission of Burma an influential band, as Bowery Presents offered up before the show via Twitter: “If you don’t already know why Mission of Burma is such an influential band, find out tonight at @MusicHallofWB.” Of course they are influential, [...]
