6TWENTY is the 2001 debut album by the New Zealand punk band D4.
Isn't it curious how the most arresting 21st century bands playing in a U.S. garage-rock style often seem to come from other countries? Sweden, Australia, and other nations have had their share, but New Zealand checks in heartily with the D4. Simple math proves that you can't accuse this fearsome foursome of jumping on the post-Strokes gravy train, though; their first EP preceded the debut of the NYC trend-setters.
Throughout their first full-length album, the lads keep things appropriately simple and direct; scrappy, chugging guitars, relentless amphetamine-crazed drumming, and ragged, mad-dog vocals. A healthy respect for the founding fathers (Stooges, Dolls, MC 5, etc.) is evident but not overbearing. A gritty romp through Johnny Thunders' "Pirate Love" adds some bluesy swagger to the frenetic proceedings, but the D4 are too smart and hell-bent to bother with anything like a ballad; 6TWENTY is a raging rock monster from start to finish.
Japanese edition of the New Zealand garage punk's 2002 album includes four exclusive bonus tracks, 'Outta Blues', 'North Shore Bitch', 'Joe Orton's Wedding', & 'John Rock'. 17 tracks in all, including a Johnny Thunders cover & a Guitarwolf cover. Flying Nun Records. 2003.
Japanese import with four bonus tracks.
The D4: Dion, Jimmy (vocals, guitar); Vaughan (bass); Beaver (drums).
Additional personnel: Cameron Rowe (organ).

| | John Mayer Battle Studies CD (2009)
6twenty
$11.18  
It's no secret that John Mayer is a 21st Century Fox, wining and dining women all through tabloid headlines, so it's about time he delivered an album that traded upon his loverman persona -- and Battle Studies is that record in spades. Retaining more than a modicum of the slick, soul-blues undertones of Continuum, Mayer fashions a modern groove album, a record that maintains a smooth seductive vibe so thoroughly it spills into a one-man band cover of "Crossroads." Mayer remains somewhat of a disciple of Slowhand, but he shows an unusual interest in the big AOR stylings of Journeyman, along with Stevie Ray Vaughan's In Step, creating a coolly clean blend of synths and Strats, one that's as much about texture as it is about song.something perfectly appropriate for a make-out album like this. Sometimes, Mayer dips too heavily toward the texture, but he can't resist ...

Certain concerts create a legend as soon as the final note ceases to ring. Nirvana's headlining appearance at the 1992 Reading Festival is one of these shows, a concert that arrived at precisely the right moment and stands as testament to a band at the peak of its powers...and right before things started to turn sour within the Nirvana camp. Despite the happy news of the birth of Frances Bean Cobain a mere 12 days before this August 30 festival, rumors swirled around Nirvana right up until the band hit the stage. Kurt Cobain took full advantage of these scurrilous stories, ...

$22.05 
According to Billboard magazine, Eddy Arnold--not Hank Williams, not George Jones, not Merle Haggard, and not even Garth Brooks-is the top country artist of the modern era. During his lengthy career, Arnold placed 92 (!) singles in country music's Top Ten. Interestingly, though, Arnold today receives short shrift not only from contemporary country fans but also from aficionados of the genre's classic age. Like his contemporaries and fellow giants Marty Robbins and Jim Reeves, Arnold sings too prettily to suit today's styles, which favor the Hank Williams' mournful wail and George Jones' ...
| | British Lions CD (1978)
6twenty
$14.35
With a band patched together from the remnants of Mott the Hoople, British Lions is all swagger and little substance; music performed as though it's very important and vital, but with little in the way of memorable tunes or attitude. That's the late-'70s hard rock mainstream for you, and it's easy to imagine these guys slogging it out in arenas as a support act, which in fact they did for Blue Öyster Cult and UFO. Really, it's hard to hear this without sniggering a little. Worse, it sort of recalls the pathetic fictional '70s band featured in the British movie Still Crazy that was posited as a group once very popular and meaningful, but played songs so shallow and derivative that any viewer with a reasonably deep background in music appreciation would fail to be convinced. It's convenient to blame British Lions' lack of major success upon their being stuck between the hard rock-glam and punk-new wave eras, but that's a red herring. No, the real cause was their dull material, absence of striking originality, and irritating bombast, throwing in elements of glam, pub rock, Bob Dylan, hard rock, and prog that don't cohere into anything significant or enjoyable. The compilers of this CD obviously do not agree, viewing this phase of the band's development important enough to merit a reissue with extensive liner notes by drummer Dale Buffin Griffin and no less than eight previously unreleased bonus tracks taken from a 1978 BBC Peel session, a live 1978 show, and demos. Actually, the last three of those demos -- recorded in 1979 by British Lions members John Fiddler and Ray Major -- are passable, much lower-key things, occasionally rather folky, that don't sound at all like the stuff on the rest of the ...
