Ben Glover is back with a fourth album, as emotionally graceful and expertly Americana as his previous three. But of course with even more song writing maturity, his Springsteen-esque qualities and healthy Dylan twinge even more present and, the critics’ early premonitions of greatness even more justified. Recorded in the heart of Nashville, the album…
Mike Tyler is a celebrated non-academic, post-beat poet and musician in the American tradition. ‘Erection’ is his second album, creatively processed more like a novel than a recording. There is an incredible control over the work, with subtle musical innuendos and effects, as well as an incomparable sense of humour throughout. ‘Conversational Spanish’ has a…

Upp på scen kliver ett gäng grabbar som ser ut att vara plockade direkt från Woodstock 69’. Det blir nästan lite komiskt mycket 60-70 tal över deras utseende för ett tag. Men när de sedan börjar spela sin psykedeliska, tempoväxlande, till största del instrumentala musik känns de inte riktigt lika komiska längre. De känns faktiskt…
The Scams var ett av de få banden jag kände till på Fest I logen sedan tidigare. Därav fanns det ju även en del förväntningar. Jag hoppades på lite riktig ”testosteron-rock” med förstummande gitarrsolon och tunga riff. Jag hoppades på att få en käftsmäll av den höga ljudnivån. Jag hoppades helt enkelt på lite riktig,…
