| | 31Knots Polemics CD 31Knots Discography of CDs
The Northwest math-rock trio's CD EP combines sophisticated arrangements and a prog rock sensibility, occasionally interrupted by bursts of hardcore guitar and eased along by angelic vocals and open-ended string arrangements. With the addition of Joe Haege's vocals, the whole is sometimes reminiscent of early Robert Smith backed by Tortoise.CMJ (p.51) - "The production and extra sound effects on the album are an added bonus to the musical surprises that emerge every 15 seconds."

| | Pere Ubu Why I Hate Women CD (2006)
Polemics album
$10.79 Named after a hypothetical and non-existent Jim Thompson novel, Pere Ubu's 13th studio album is one of the most interesting of their long tenure, and testament to the continually replenishing spiky ingenuity of group leader (and sole original member) David Thomas. WHY I HATE WOMEN examines a living slice of dread, as expressed by nervous drums, atmospheric guitars, and Thomas's anxiety-ridden singing. The jerky rhythms and vocals of the opening number "Two Girls (One Bar)" are like opening a door and being greeted by the entirety of the early 1980s no-wave scene. Ditto the unsettling swamp-fevered "Blue Velvet," which reverberates with David Lynchian despair and desire, and the hopped-up "Caroleen," which plays like a love song for troubled adolescents, without the emo bravado.

| | Bill Wyman Just For A Thrill CD (2005)
Polemics songs
$13.19 No one is likely to expect former Rolling Stones' bassist Bill Wyman, nearing 69 years of age at the time of this 2005 release, to turn out a groundbreaking, experimental album. That expectation is well founded. In fact, Wyman's band the Rhythm Kings, play a version of old school bluesy, R&B that is so comfortable it feels like a pair of well-worn sneakers. Yet that is precisely the charm of JUST FOR A THRILL. With help from vocalists Albert Lee, Mike Sanchez, Georgie Fame, and Beverley Skeets, and a host of veteran rockers (including Mark Knopfler on guitar), Wyman makes the familiar fun.
As one might expect from a group of musicians graying around the temples (okay, they're completely gray), there isn't much of the grind and grit that characterized the Stones early R&B phase. But while the grooves are well polished and easy on the ears, they also speak to the years of experience evident in the performances here. The repertoire is a mix of originals (there are several tracks written by Wyman and guitarist Terry Taylor), Stax/Volt covers (Sam & Dave's "You Don't Know"), standards ("Georgia on My Mind") and rock classics (the Beatles' "Taxman"). This session is relaxed, easy-going, and all about good times.

| | Cowboy Junkies Long Journey Home CD (2006) With DVD
Polemics CD music
$15.65 Recorded and filmed at the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall in England at the end of their 2004 tour, this CD/DVD set is one of the band's strongest performances ever, featuring stunning renditions of their classics.
With 2006's live album LONG JOURNEY HOME arriving two full decades after their indie debut WHITES OFF EARTH NOW, Canadian alt-country superstars the Cowboy Junkies proved to be still going strong. Although the narcotic blend of country twang and slowcore moodiness that's implicit in their name has never left the band's music, the Cowboy Junkies have developed many different shades of gray in their chiaroscuro sound. Hearing early songs like the plaintive ballad "Misguided Angel" and the bluesy swagger of "Cause Cheap Is How I Feel" on this live recording from ...
