Aloha, Suit Up
Rumored to have been recorded for only $600, At the Drive-In’s first album, Acrobatic Tenement harnesses the bombastic, melodic shrieks of Drive Like Jehu into a steel-solid collection of instantly-classic, post-hardcore ditties. Originally released by Flipside Records solely on compact disc in 1996, the album didn’t debut on vinyl until this 2013 reissue from Twenty-First Chapter Records, the band’s own label. If you have the stomach for aggressive adventures in and out of post-hardcore shadows, Acrobatic Tenement is certainly not one to miss.

A worthwhile read, courtesy of Canada’s Propagandhi, by means of the insert to their 1996 album, Less Talk, More Rock. Remember kids, ANIMAL-FRIENDLY, ANTI-FASCIST, GAY-POSITIVE, PRO-FEMINIST. Also, hurray Canada.

Dear, these precious “United” States. This is why we can’t have nice things. I’m disappointed in you, California, and am ashamed to call myself a born Californian. What good is history when derived from dishonest means? As good as it ever has been, I suppose. Is Canada hiring?

Bring home the lovable madness of these Southern California masters, The Mad Caddies. Titled, Consensual Selections, this Fat Wreck Chords comp contains many of the band’s primary selections, as well as a few previously unreleased choice cuts. Limited to 1000 copies, I’m happy I’ll never have to buy this double LP again.

No ABC Family Special here, just good-ol, quality, down-home, Dwight Yoakam. Tally-ho!

Happy June, everyone. I’ll leave you with your Saturday save to say this… where would we be without the Blues?
Carnegie Hall
At long last… It’s A Beautiful Day at Carnegie Hall! That, that is all, unfortunately…
Happy Listening
Often, we overlook the simplicities of our everyday surroundings. Take stock in the now, because tomorrow, you’ll wish you were here. Happy listening.
