Instant Live: The Paradise - Boston, Ma 1/28/05 album
 $12.39    
It's a shame that the Germs are better known for their trashy, charismatic singer Darby Crash's demise than for their music, because M.I.A.: THE COMPLETE ANTHOLOGY proves that they were easily one of the best bands on the LA punk scene in the late 1970s. (According to legend, Crash's fatal overdose wasn't an accident, but a deliberate homage to his idol, Sid Vicious, in an attempt for gruesome rock & roll immortality. Unfortunately, John Lennon was murdered around the same time, and Crash's death never made a blip on the media radar.)
The aptly named collection begins with the astonishingly primitive, yet bizarrely compelling and genuinely hilarious, first single "Forming" (a later re-recording with X drummer D.J. Bonebrake closes the set). M.I.A. also includes the entirety of the chaotic, furious WHAT WE DO IS SECRET release and the streamlined, Joan Jett-produced GI album, plus six previously unreleased ...
| | Organ Grab That Gun CD (2004)
Instant Live: The Paradise - Boston, Ma 1/28/05 CD music
$12.85
The Organ's 2002 debut EP Sinking Hearts was more captivating than most of that year's full-length releases: over the course of just 15 minutes, the band crafted chiaroscuro meditations on falling in and out of love that were just as light and jangly as they were dark and brooding. The EP was a promising beginning, and Grab That Gun, the Organ's first album, builds on that promise by delivering more appealingly moody music instead of reinventing the band's sound. It's tempting, initially, to be slightly disappointed that the Organ didn't broaden its sonic territory. But, even though the music remains remarkably focused, Grab That Gun proves that the band has plenty of room for expression within its rather limited palette of droning organs, succinct drumming and sharp, upturned guitar lines that give new meaning to the term "hook." While this sound comes from the legacy of '80s college rock -- at times suggesting a fusion of the Smiths' witty, bouncy melancholy and the on-the-sleeve passion of Throwing Muses -- and also has ties to some of the other bands remaking new wave and post-punk in their own images, the Organ and Grab That Gun have a freshness that isn't often heard in any kind of rock music. This is partly due to the simplicity of the band's playing; some call it amateurish, although innocent is probably a more apt description. There's also a remarkable sincerity to the band's music, a large part of which ...
| | Matson Jones Albatross Mates For Life, But Only After A Lengthy Courtship That Can Take Up To Four Y CD (2006)
Instant Live: The Paradise - Boston, Ma 1/28/05 music CDs
$7.85 
In the ongoing battle against the hegemony of the two guitars/bass/drums group configuration in rock & roll, Matson Jones at very least deserve credit for creating a unique alternative -- by replacing the guitars with cellos, they've come up with a variant that offers a broad range of tonal colors and sounds much more aggressive than you might expect. The Albatross Mates for Life, But Only After a Lengthy Courtship That Can Take Up to Four Years is a four-song EP from Matson Jones that's practically over by the time you finish saying the title, but offers a quite satisfying taste of what this quartet can do. While there are moments where one senses PJ Harvey's "Man Sized Sextet" provided the template for this band's entire repertoire, the lurching drone of Anna Mascorella ...

Instant Live: The Paradise - Boston, Ma 1/28/05 songs
$12.95
THE SPELL, the seventh release from San Diego's the Black Heart Procession, combines the band's early minimalist tendencies with the rock richness of 2002's AMORE DEL TROPICO. The Procession still wade in dark, melancholic waters, ...
| | Holy Fuck LP CD (2007)
Instant Live: The Paradise - Boston, Ma 1/28/05 album
$12.19
Toronto-based electro noise squad Holy Fuck specialize in the kind of unholy racket worthy of their expletive-brandishing moniker. Finely honing their live electronics-aided lo-fi "motorik" for their second album, LP, the band wields overdriven Casiotones against steady-state beats set for oblivion. Upon an insistent, groove-heavy pulse that recalls the hypnotic propulsion of Krautrock outfits like Neu! ...

Christina Rosenvinge's second solo album was released after Dean Wareham announced the breakup of Luna, and a dedicated fan of this style of stylishly enervated Velvet Underground-influenced dream pop could almost think that the Spanish-Danish singer/songwriter had decided to pick ...
