Chicks rock this week

Quite a few "almost great" and few "oh yeah they are still around"

Portishead - Third
After a decade or so of quiet from this trio they are back with an unsettling cd. It flows from gorgeous to unnerving. A cd full of pure juxaposition of sound and feeling.

Santogold - Self Titled
No matter how you describe this music you are right. Dub Reggae? Sure. New Wave? It's in there. The second coming of MIA? Actually I like this one better. One thing for sure is this cd is full of butt shaking rhythms.

Also look and/or listen to or download a few tracks from
Mudcrutch. Tom Petty is just too cool. He gets his old band together (which wasn't too hard since most of them are Heartbreakers anyway) to record a new cd. It's a fun, relaxed ride through the back roads of rock. South - You Are Here. I really wanted to put this in the "gold" category but just couldn't. Please at least get a few tracks from this under appreciated band. Robert Forster - The Evangelist. The Go Betweens are sadly no longer with us but this cd captures just enough moments that you should hunt it down for a listen. Def Leppard has a new cd out too.
