The follow-up to Pernice Brothers' lauded YOURS, MINE AND OURS, 2005's DISCOVER A LOVELIER YOU finds the Massachusetts-via-New York indie-pop band reining in the rock elements of the earlier album for a lighter, even more melodic sound. As always, Joe Pernice's wry, literate, and often-morbid lyrics ("There's a train wreck picking up survivors from a plane crash") contrast wonderfully with his amiable vocals and breezy, harmony-laden arrangements.

Although the driving "Snow" visits Psychedelic Furs territory, Pernice's love of 1980s New Wave bands is largely subdued here, in favor of shimmering pop tunes like "Say Goodnight to the Lady" and "Amazing Glow." The instrumental title track--a lush song with chiming guitars that recalls the UK cult band Felt--holds it own with the rest of the disc, and provides an excellent mid-album interlude. Longtime fans of Pernice's projects (including Scud Mountain Boys and Chappaquiddick Skyline) won't be surprised by the high quality of the songs on DISCOVER A LOVELIER YOU, a record that should bring Pernice Brothers an even wider audience.

Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars) 5 stars

5 stars Frankly (Mr Shankly), They Are Better Than Wilco
This record sounds like a cross between The Beach Boys and The Smiths. Since that might be hard to imagine, picture instead that most rarified of "Americana" sub-genre's ("ambient/experiental" branch) whose most famous occupant is Wilco. The biggest difference between the Pernice Bothers and Wilco is Joe Pernice's "consistency of vision." Which is another way of saying that you won't be skipping any songs on this (or any of their other) albums. Both bands have made consistently good/great records, and always manage to stretch the envelope with each new release. I can't explain the Pernice Brothers lack of press or record sales, because frankly they are better than Wilco; but, that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

After working his way through loss and chaos on the brilliant TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT (recorded in 1973, but not released until 1975), Neil Young deftly exorcised any lingering demons with 1974's ON THE BEACH. The album opens with the saunter of the aptly titled "Walk On," followed by the utterly gorgeous, Wurlitzer-tinged "See the Sky about to Rain." The set also features a trio of scathing songs--"Revolution Blues," "Vampire Blues," and "Ambulance ...

The Pernice Brothers spent much of 2004 on the road.

Compiled from two shows recorded in January 2004 at New York City's Mercury Lounge, Nobody's Watching/Nobody's Listening ...

Mighty Mike Schermer Band Next Set CD  (2005)

Discover A Lovelier You CD music
CD $16.45
Mighty Mike Schermer tops the wave of contemporary electric guitarists with his exciting approach to blues and American roots music. This energetic guitarist/vocalist/songwriter has truly become "mighty" with his impressive, hard-driving performances that urge even the most die-hard purists to their feet. Currently touring behind his second release "Next Set" Schermer brings a wealth of experience to his own project after playing with some of the top artists in the business. The 12-track CD on Fine Dog Records features 10 crafty originals and 2 covers. The music literally jumps out of the box from the first riff of the butt-shakin' opener "Got My Love On" then rolls perfectly into the old school R&B sing-along "My Big Sister's Radio". "Next Set" continues to please with guest performances by Maria Muldaur, Texas blues belter Angela Strehli, and Vanguard recording artist Shana Morrison. Soulful background vocals are handled dutifully throughout by Tammi Brown and "The Sista"- Sista Monica Parker. The Mighty Mike Schermer Band is anchored by co-writer and bassist Steve Ehrmann (formerly with Coco Montoya, John Lee Hooker and Roy Rogers) and drummers June Core (Charlie Musselwhite, Little Charlie and the Nightcats) and Paul Revelli. Austin DeLone and Dale Ockerman lay down extremely funky keyboard work, while Terry Hanck and Johnnie Bamont blow some mean sax. Paul Liberatore of the Marin Independent Journal calls him "... one of the most extraordinary guitarists of the new generation." Charlie Lange of Bluebeat Music writes "...equally ...
