Led by Sean O'Hagan, the London electropop outfit the High Llamas are well known for their Beach Boys fixation, though their focus has always been more on the legendary California band's post-SURF'S UP period (with plinking banjos and chiming vibraphones much to the fore), than on any imitation of its ethereal harmonies. BUZZLE BEE blends a variety of sunny 1960s influences with space-age electronic effects reminiscent of Stereolab (whose Mary Hansen contributes guest vocals), combining them with O'Hagan's downbeat lyrics on tracks like the period piece "Get Into the Galley Shop" and the ethereal "Passing Bell."

WALKING TO NEW ORLEANS is an updated collection based on the 1991 box set THEY CALL ME THE FAT MAN. Includes a 68-page booklet with rare photos, album covers and a complete singles and LP discography.
Of all the early rock & rollers, Fats Domino gets a short shrift. Too easygoing for rockers, too popular for New Orleans R&B devotees, he fell into a middle ground -- a middle ground that was extremely popular at the time, but didn't give him the proper respect within hipster history, probably because his music is just so damn enjoyable. Few musicians have made good music sound so easy, so effortless as Fats, and that's best appreciated in an exhaustive ...

Buzzle Bee music CDs

This 1970s outing by the U.S. hard-rock group Bloodrock includes "Lucky in the Morning," "Fallin'," and "Fancy Space Odyssey."
On their second outing, Bloodrock became a hitmaking proposition thanks to the success of "D.O.A." Despite the morbid nature of this hit, the album is not another spooky epic like their debut. This time out, the group keeps the music fairly heavy but goes for a lighter feel in the songwriting. For instance, "Cheater" is not the revenge tale one might expect: instead, it's the surprisingly earnest promise of a lover vowing to remain faithful. Unfortunately, "peace and love" themes do not suit Bloodrock as well as the darker themes that characterized their first release. The attempts at creating heartfelt love songs feel embarrassingly sappy ("Sable and Pearl" is the biggest culprit in this department), and these types of lyrics do not mix comfortably with the group's hard-rocking sound. Bloodrock also take a stab at social commentary on songs like "Children's Heritage" and "Dier Not a Lover," but their message lyrics come off as muddled and amateurish. The best moments on Bloodrock 2 are those that go for the spooky feel of the first album: "Fallin'" uses crashing drums and descending riffs to bring the lyric's mood of depression to life, and "D.O.A.," which graphically recounts the last thoughts of a plane-crash victim, became a surprise pop chart hit thanks to its powerfully spooky ...
| | Munkey Juice Mafia Cornfields CD (2004)
Buzzle Bee songs
$9.35
I must admit, I was expecting the worst when I first laid eyes on this CD. Between the unfortunate band name and the somehow Columbine-evoking album title, I anticipated another lousy emo or rap-rock record. But, as Im sure youve already guessed, Mafia Cornfields obliterated all of my negative preconceptions. In fact, I can say with a good deal of enthusiasm that I loved this record and for those of you whove read my previous reviews for this publication, you know that means a lot.A little more about Munkey Juice before I try to describe the bands sound: Nelson and Robert Heise started the band in the backwoods of Ohio in 1995. In the time since, theyve launched their own record label, released six full-length albums and two EPs, and at some point relocated themselves to the Twin Cities area. According to their bio, theyve gone through drummers much like Spinal Tap did, but have managed not to let it slow them down. Now theyre in the midst of finishing a double-album that will serve as the soundtrack to an indie film called Moscow due out this ...

Buzzle Bee CD music
$9.85
The Paranoid Foundation: a collaborative music/multimedia project aiming to explore the darker elements of the human psyche.PF was formed in London, UK during 2003 by Crispin Lee (narration, audio artefacts) and Andrew Walker (electronics, communications): 2 sonic explorers with a shared interest in dark, experimental sounds. Taking influence from a variety of musical sources including krautrock, industrial and punk through to dub, electronica and ambient/noise, the duo aim to provide an intoxicating soundtrack to the more uneasy aspects of modern circumstance.The project’s visual identity is formulated by silent third member, Japanese graphic designer, Tetsu Okada. Tetsu’s graphics provide an accurate visual counterpart to Crispin and Andrew's musical themes. Life Death Indifference is PF's fourth and perhaps most visceral album to date.Review from Side-Line Magazine:The UK-duo Paranoid foundation consists out of Crispin Lee and Andrew Walker. Moving in the dark ambient corner, this duo is really experienced in the search of very different elements that could fit to their cold ambient creation. Icy atmospheres mixed with slow tempo rhythms or other and more space-like tones merged with spooky vocals are alternating each other during the “Life Death Indifference”. One of the most particular tracks on this album -and still my absolute favourite one- is “Say It’s Too Late”. This track sounds like Leftfield going cold ambient. It’s really original and the typical, somewhat dubby Leftfield style mixed in a darker mood sounds maybe as a new path to explore for Paranoid Foundation. That’s also true for the last cut entitled “Submission”. This track is more into astral spheres, but the monotonous slow rhythmic is an essential part of this song. Paranoid Foundation for sure has this kind of ambient touch that brings the listener in imaginary visions. They’re for sure aware of this strength, which has lead them to collaborate with a so-called ‘silent’ third member. ...
