THIS WORLD IS BEAT
After a crippling debut and more break-ups than we could keep up with, it seems that Hank Wood and the Hammerheads are officially back with their second full-length, and we could not be happier. The record’s called Stay Home, and it’s amazing. It’s not often in this day and age that you can find a…

QUEEN INSIDE YR BRAIN
It feels like just yesterday that we were jamming and rocking and carrying on to PUJOL at Freakin’ Weekend V. Even though many moons have passed since then, we have a little something to remember that faithful night now. The fine folks at Philthy Phonographic Records have just released a flexi disc of “No Words” live from…

The lineup features Chet Jameson (Cy Barkley & The Way Outsiders) and Kunal Prakash (Viva L’American Death Ray…
Sun’s Out, Gunn’s Out
Steve Gunn released one of our favorite records of 2013 with his amazing “Time Off.” Safe to say that this record and William Tyler‘s “Impossible Truth” provided a personal push to delve further into American folk music of the early 20th century generally and American Primitivism of the mid 1960s specifically. Gunn is back with a…
WALK OUR WAY
Peter Walker began his career as a guitarist in 1959. In 1965, he became the music director for Timothy Leary’s LSD experiments, and that next year, he released his quintessential Rainy Day Raga. By the ’70s, Walker had stepped away from the public eye in favor of a more peaceful family life, but his playing did not stop there….
