Art-damaged new wave noise is, like candy or tequila, delicious in small doses. London's bizarre quintet PRE, who could accurately be described as similar to any of the above, understand this, as EPIC FITS careens through 14 tracks in around 20 minutes. Vocalist Keeks Matsuura's keening shriek assaults listeners, while the band whooshes through bright blasts of rusty metal junk-pop anchored by a mutant-rhythm two-bass attack that hits like a sugar rush with a gasoline aftertaste. PRE make ruined futuristic pop for musical scavengers--it's strange, frightening, and a lot of fun.
PRE: Akiko Matsuura, Kevin Hendrix, Matthew Wargurton, Richard Bennett , John Webb.
Additional personnel: Emma Sullivan (trumpet).

Purchase Epic Fits CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Adam Lambert For Your Entertainment CD (2009)
Epic Fits album
 $11.18    
With Adam Lambert, American Idol finally got a finalist who was completely, utterly contemporary, aware of what's hip in music and culture and aware of how music is made and consumed in 2009, never seeming to try to follow fads or set trends, just embodying the time. Mercifully, he came in second to Kris Allen, for if he came in first he may have had to tame his self-styled glamazon ways. A second place finish allowed Lambert to come out of the closet and indulge in his penchant for theater on his debut, For Your Entertainment -- which isn't quite the same thing as camp, for if Adam Lambert is anything, he's earnest about his dress-up, never winking at the audience because he doesn't think there's much funny about his glitter and mascara: that's just what pop stars are supposed to do. He's learned that by listening to his stacks of Queen and Bowie records, from watching old MTV videos on YouTube, from living in a present that always competes with the ever-present past, so he takes ...

Epic Fits music CDs
$20.25
Dakota Suite's Signal Hill is another lo-fi sleeper from San Francisco indie label Badman Recording Company. While the band is from West Yorkshire, England, songwriter Chris Hooson exudes an almost Midwestern feel not unlike that of Josh Rouse or the Red House Painters -- simple, sparse instrumentation and whispered, intimate vocals tell stories of absent lovers and grey evenings. Produced and recorded by band member Richard Formby (Spacemen 3, Sonic Boom), the album has a distinctly analog feel, with idly strummed acoustic guitar intertwining with soaring lap steel, a simple trap kit, and some of the gentlest bass playing on record. Similar to Spain's Josh Haden, singer/songwriter Hooson's breathy vocals are warmly bittersweet and heartfelt, never abandoning hope, but rather pleading his case in an almost offhand manner. In the album's closing moments, a cello-led chamber piece serves as an intro to the cautiously hopeful final ...

The best way to explain Zoroofchi might be to say that he's the Al Jolson of Azarbaijan. That's not as ridiculous as it sounds; Azarbaijan became a Russian possession in the early 19th century and seems to be considerably Westernized. ...

| | Sean Madigan Hoen Liquor Witch CD (2007)
Epic Fits CD music
$8.79
Recommended by CD Baby:"The Liquor Witch is the kind of ambitious and nakedly sincere rock album that people have apparently forgotten how to make. Somewhere between the vapid state of mainstream music and the uber-hip indie rock nonsense lies this broken but beautiful album ." -- Splendid Music "Pay attention, indie-folk hipsters! This is one of those records you want to add to your collection, then mention to your friends in casual conversation." -- Mammoth Press"Hoen's never gotten enough credit as a songwriter, as that guy who can make your blood run cold even as you wish you were him. Liquor Witch can be the album to do it for you, and if you need more proof of his diversity, drop in on 'We Are Pedestrians.' If you've ever moved away from friends or lovers - or moved away from pain - it'll reach right into your chest."-- Johnny Loftus, Detour Magazine. For fans of: My Morning Jacket, The National, Wilco, Ryan Adams, Nick Cave, Sun Kil Moon. From Greyday Records website:The Liquor Witch is the debut solo release from Brooklyn-based singer/songwriter Sean Madigan Hoen, frontman of the Detroit-based Leaving Rouge (Greyday) and The Holy Fire (Militia Group). Hoen has slummed in the trenches of music subculture for over a decade, recording, touring and developing a bad habit of walking away from his bands as they seem on the brink of becoming known. The Liquor Witch is Hoen's debut "solo" outing and the music contained here is awkwardly beautiful, imperfect, and undeniably moving. Recorded sporadically during 2006, the album opens with 'We Are Pedestrians,' a soundscape based on one revolving set of piano chords that stretches on for five and a half minutes. By the song's end, Hoen is heard laughing maniacally beneath a wash of spastic trumpets and distortion, yet the quaint melody of the ...

Epic Fits album
$8.99
I Was Submerged is the debut full-length by Tulsa, who hail, ironically enough, from Boston. Not to be confused with the darker, far more mysterious Tulsa Drone, this group snagged its name from the first book by photographer/director Larry Clark. These still controversial pictures were of his friends and Tulsa in 1962; many of those depicted were speed freaks, junkies, and outlaws, who are no longer breathing air. What the photographs and these songs have in common is simply unclear. Tulsa, the band, by contrast, write exceptionally tight, well-crafted pop songs. Acoustic and electric guitars with a conventional bass-and-drum rhythm section are often juxtaposed by a Rhodes ...
