(1 Customer Review)
Although Judd & Maggie's SUBJECTS features drummer Joey Waronker and bassist Justin Meldal-Johnsen, both formerly of Beck's backing band, there's no alt-rock genre-hopping on this debut. Produced by Waronker, the 2005 album is a 12-song set of light, melodic pop that's marked by the Baltimore brother/sister duo's bright harmonies. While Maggie often takes up lead vocals, Judd capably complements her singing, and contributes either guitar or piano to most tracks. Maggie's voice can take on a gauzy likeness to Dido or Sarah McLachlan (see "Sleeper" and the quiet interlude of "Closer"), but in general, she sticks to a more straightforward approach that syncs up wonderfully with the disc's sensitive pop songs. Waronker's production work is crisp and clear, with Patrick Warren's occasional horn and string arrangements filling out the slow, swaying "Big Lights" and the delicate, emotional "Sponge," respectively. Like a 21st-century version of the Carpenters, Judd & Maggie know how to turn a rapport between siblings into compelling music, as revealed on SUBJECTS.
Judd & Maggie: Maggie (vocals); David Levita (guitar, sound effects); Judd (acoustic guitar, piano); Larry Corbett (cello); Zac Rae (keyboards, vibraphone); Patrick Warren (keyboards); Paul Bushnell, Justin Meldal-Johnsen (bass guitar); Joey Waronker (drums).

Subjects album
$11.35 NIGHT CASTLE appears just in time for the big 2009 holiday season but don't be fooled: this isn't a Christmas album, even if it's sonically indistinguishable from Trans-Siberian Orchestra's other seasonal releases, and the fact that it's been dubbed "Capra-esque" certainly brings it within the realm of the season. NIGHT CASTLE brims with all the drama, pomp, and circumstance of Trans-Siberian Orchestra's other records but channeling these traits through a newly created narrative does have the effect of hearing it in a somewhat new light, shifting the focus entirely to the band's attack, not melody. Still, there's not that much new here -- and the coda of seasonal covers, including the first sober version of "Nutrocker" ever cut, doesn't do much to break ...

| | Pink Martini Splendor In The Grass CD (2009) Digipak
Subjects CD music
$13.39 Pink Martini follow the around-the-world-in-a-dozen-songs thrills of HEY EUGENE! with SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS, a mellower, simpler set of small pleasures. These are relative terms, however; the group's music is still well-traveled, with China Forbes singing in five languages (English, Spanish, Neapolitan, French, and Italian) instead of the six or so on EUGENE!. However, Pink Martini opt for a more unified sound here, one that draws on the more straightforward lounge-pop of their debut, SYMPATHIQUE, and the mellowness of '60s and '70s pop. SPLENDOR IN THE GRASS' first half is especially smooth, opening with the beautifully soft Neapolitan ballad "Ninna Nanna" and the title track, on which Forbes sings "I think we should take it slow" over swooping strings, brass, and piano that resurrect the glory days of AM pop; that feeling is echoed by the cover of Joe Raposo's "Sing," the Sesame Street song that gained popularity when the Carpenters performed it (Emilio Delgado, aka Sesame Street's Luis, ...

| | Jonas Bering Sketches For The Next Season CD (2003) (Import) Germany
Subjects album
$15.05 When Jonas Bering followed up Bienfait a few months after release with the Emballages 12", it was apparent that the Frenchman was beginning to develop a thicker, fuller, more dance-oriented sound -- a sound that was also beginning to shed the inspirations that were previously perceptible to a fault. This progression continued up to the release of Sketches for the Next Season; another pair of Kompakt twelves -- including Normandie, one of the label's best of 2003 -- along with an excellent release for Logarythm (as En:no) and a contribution to Sentrall's Drive the Five series ("Down to Big Sur," a shuffle-tech track on par with the best Schaffelfieber entries) all paved the way. With the exception of "Normandie 1," Sketches for the Next Season is made up from all-new material, and though its formatting lends itself to home listening, it's a lot more likely to induce bodily movements than Bienfait. Once upon a ...

$7.05 | | Offspring Greatest Hits CD (2005) (Import) Bonus Tracks; Australia
Subjects CD music
$27.59 This collection of greatest hits by breakthrough US punk-rock band The Offspring contains the songs "Come Out and Play (Keep 'em Separated)," "Pretty Fly (For a White Guy)," and "(Can't Get My) Head Around You."
This Australian version contains two exclusive tracks, "Next to You" and "Can't Repeat."
Plenty of SoCal punk diehards decried The Offspring to be "sellouts" when they leapt from cherished indie Epitaph to the major-label stables at Columbia Records. But one listen to this GREATEST HITS compilation points to a band that was never destined to stay underground for long. In crafting clever pop-punk that addressed the ...
