R.I.P Jay Reatard

Jay Reatard died in his sleep last night.  He was 29 years old. No word on the cause yet. I was not a huge fan of Jay, but I did appreciate what he was doing…bringing back gritty, fuzzy, crunchy garage rock like nobody else had done in awhile.  He released a warehouse worth of...

Derailed: Metal/Hardcore 2009 Part 2

Every so often I will be posting under the ‘Derailed’ heading. This is for posts that are outside my normal comfort area…indie rock/pop. There are so many flavors of metal now.  I’m sure there were back in the mid-80′s as well, but back then I just knew I liked heavy metal and didn’t realize...

Rewind: Washed Out – Life of Leisure EP (2009)

Ernest Green is Washed Out.  Washed Out is Ernest Greene.   He makes electronic music under the new chillwave subgenre.  As much as I hate to admit it, I think I like chillwave.  I liked it before I knew it had a name.   Being drawn to Neon Indian, Memory Tapes/Cassette and the first single from...
