The delirious "Intro" sets the stage for what's to come: murky synth washes are gently led into the sunshine by the sudden magisterial arrival of the flamenco guitar. The title track is a rousing instrumental that fuses techno with samplings of the Irish traditional ballad, "She Moved through the Fair" (referred to as "Belfast Child"), with a haunting vocal over a mix of percussion elements, synthesizer pads, and more flamenco. (Imagine Gypsy Kings mixing an album with Deep Forest). The track appears twice more, as a reprise and extended club remix. Another highlight is a reworking of an old Vangelis tune, here called "You Won't See Me Cry," wherein seductive spoken word ...

The debut album by the High Kings was issued by the same folks who had a hand in Celtic Woman and Riverdance, and consists of easy listening and buffed-and-polished Irish folk music of appeal to an audience that is comparatively massive for the world music fringe: this album made the lower levels of the Billboard Top 200 album chart. The High Kings is glossy and polite -- targeted perhaps toward listeners who enjoyed the pennywhistle on Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On" -- even on tunes that strive to be upbeat and frolicsome. ~ Stewart Mason
The debut album by the High Kings, brought to you by the same folks who had a hand in faux-Celtic abominations like Celtic Woman and Riverdance, brings up an important philosophical question: just exactly what is the demographic for this blend of middlebrow easy listening and buffed-and-polished Irish folk music? More to the point, what does that audience (which was comparatively massive for the world music fringe: this album actually made the lower depths of the Billboard Top 200 album chart) get out of the antiseptic gloss of The High Kings that isn't available to them through the equally cleaned-up and mainstream likes of, say, the Chieftains or Clannad? Listening to the painfully polite and over-manicured tunes here, it seems like the target market for The High Kings is those consumers whose first exposure to the pennywhistle was Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On," and who just naturally assume that that's what Irish folk music sounds like as a result. ...

Don Ho's very name has become a veritable punchline. Yet his achievements can not be dismissed as easily as an obvious joke. Few recording artists have been so comfortable in so many genres--Don Ho masterfully handles anything from country to light rock to luau listening. He's almost a Jimmy Buffet from an earlier generation. His version of "Tiny ...

As any quick perusal of old Top 40 rock & roll station playlists will attest, singles were where the shakin' action was, as rock & roll albums were scarce as hen's teeth back in those pre-Beatle days. But when the record companies decided to issue one, it was usually an artifact of high rockin' value and some major influence. Naysayers to the contrary, this debut album by the Northwest's first great rock & roll combo is just such an artifact. The Wailers dispensed crude, greasy, largely instrumental rock & roll music for those who came to shake it up and shake it down, and it's all on fine, rhythmic, open display here. This album is amazing in its own simplistic, nuthin'-special way, its crudity almost palpable. There's only one vocal aboard, Kent Morrill's "Dirty Robber," later covered and torched by the Sonics. Everything else is built on the riff-sturdy bones of their biggest hit, "Tall Cool One." With two guitars, piano, sax, and drums -- no bass player anywhere on here, another crudeness indicator of the times and locale it was recorded in -- all blasting away like they're working a VFW Hall dance, hoof shakers like "Wailin'," "Shanghaied," "Beat Guitar" (featured in the soundtrack of the misguided Jerry Lee Lewis bioflick Great Balls Of Fire), and "Gunnin' For Peter" stand loud and proud as teen hall pre-Beatle rock & roll at its finest. Even more amazing is that the tonal crudity of this recording is enhanced even further on the stereo pressings of this album! Northwest grunge in ...

It's not what you'd expect -- a group from Beijing, mostly comprised of Mongolians, playing horsehair spike fiddles and two-string lutes, with Central Asian overtone signing -- and sounding at times remarkably like the Velvet Underground. But that's exactly what this six-piece manages, thanks in part to the droning, monotone quality of many of the songs and the touches of programming and guitar from Western producers Robin Haller and Matteo Scumaci. What they bring is evident in the first few cuts of the disc, as on "Five Heroes" and "Flowers." ...

ANTI CHRIST is a 2002 album by the German alt-rock group Das Ich.
The chanted German lyrics and pulsing, throbbing rhythms of Teutonic industrial duo Das Ich are certainly foreboding, but on Anti' Christ, Bruno Kramm's symphonic washes and almost new wavey synth touches add a surprising touch of melodicism to some of the tracks. That's ...

$14.79
True to its title, Piney Woods' Big Blues Party sounds like a bunch of friends getting together to play some songs, drink some beer, and have an all-around good time. Piney leads an impressive roster of 19 local luminaries through 11 songs ranging from barrelhouse blues to garage stompers to waltzy slow jams. The album opens with "They Came to See Me," which jumps out with stinging guitar and a funky blues groove that backs up Piney's cutting put-down of a young-buck wannabe. The track segues into the slower, more laid-back "About my New Wife," which finds Woods telling his hard-luck story to a waitress in a bar, voiced by Mojo Hand's Lauren Robert, over a '50s R&B-style groove with some interesting changes thrown in. Other highlights include "(Crazy 'bout My) Gene Keady Hair," which belies its silly subject matter by throwing in a nasty, slow-burning everything-but-the-kitchen-sink solo and including a rap (!) over part of the song; the tough, straight-forward "Blues ...
