The Legendary Pink Dots have created their most commercially appealing album to date with Plutonium Blonde, the follow up to 2006’s Your Children Placate You From Premature Graves. Frontman Edward Ka-Spel and his crew capture the listener’s imagination with lush and haunting songs. “A World with No Mirrors” is as beautiful and emotionally charged as any Belle & Sebastian song, while “My First Zonee” comments upon our narcissistic love affair with modern technology. “An Arm & A Leg” reminds us of the fragile state of our mental and physical health. Plutonium Blonde is more than just an album; it’s an aural and visual treat, a collection of stories that could have very well been written by a modern day Brothers Grimm.
The Legendary Pink Dots sound like a genuine post-punk band, and with good reason. They formed in Britain in 1980, the heyday of the style, and have been churning out edgy, experimental music, with dashes of pop and psychedelia, ever since. PLUTONIUM BLONDE (2008) proves the Dots haven't lost their moxie over the years. Veering from tribal guitar noise to goth-fused synth pop to psychedelic folk, PLUTONIUM BLONDE keeps the musical surprises coming in a way that outclasses most latte- day post-punk Johnny-come-latelys.
The Legendary Pink Dots: Martijn De Kleer (acoustic guitar, electric guitar, banjo, bass instrument, percussion); Niels Van Hoorn (flute, bass clarinet, saxophone); The Silverman (keyboards, synthesizer); Edward Ka-Spel (keyboards, voice box).
Signal To Noise (magazine) (p.61) - "'Oceans Blue' spurs introspection with beautifully transparent textures and long keyboard loops."

The sisters Casady set the weirdness bar awfully high on their homemade debut, LA MAISON DE MON REVE, but this inspired follow-up finds the bar ascended as the angels take it on the road, recording everywhere from barnyards to actual music studios. As usual, classically trained vocalist Sierra delivers the delirious operatic vocalizing and plays piano, dulcimer, and autoharp while Bianca ...

Plutonium Blonde songs
$11.39
Over the course of 25 years and seemingly twice that many albums, it's become well nigh impossible to state simply what the Legendary Pink Dots "sound like." The best one can hope to do is to describe what Edward Ka-Spel and company are up to on any given album. Happily, Your Children Placate You from Premature Graves is one of the band's most straightforward (relatively speaking) albums, and one of its best. The overall tone is one of English psychedelic whimsy mutated into darker, largely electronic forms: think of classic-era Gong and Syd Barrett's ...

| | Vicarious Me Sucks! CD (2008)
Plutonium Blonde music CDs
$10.15 
Self-mocking, irreverent Houston art punks Vicarious Me have (finally) completed an album. Four long years of staring into the mirror have paid off, as the band have achieved the sonic counterpart to the ubiquitous "MySpace pose" – a collection of songs that depict an unsure band from the least unflattering possible angle. They’ve also given it a title that seeks to manage expectations.Sucks! begins with "Sensory Overload," a song that answers the oft-asked question, 'What if The Jesus Lizard wrote a Tango?' The final track, "Barfly," is a rowdy gospel sing-along extolling the virtues of various vices. Along the way, Vicarious Me mix rock, punk, bluegrass, electronica, pop and more, treating the profound and the puerile even-handedly – with a sense of humor that fans of the band’s raucous live performances will instantly recognize. In fact, the album plays like a live show, as the tracks are woven together with samples culled from actual jam sessions at the band’s studio, giving it a party feel.Vicarious Me is fronted by singer Chris Brewer, and relies on core band members Josh Mathis (guitars), Marvin Hibler (bass), and Michael Fry (drums). Joining them in the recording process were several guests and friends of the band, including Drop Trio's Ian Varley on keys, Steve Brown on violin, and Jason Lemon performing assorted duties best left unexplained. The result is an album that – like the band itself – is extraordinarily difficult to pigeonhole. Comparisons to other bands tend to refer to specific songs only, unless that other band is the equally categorically-challenged Ween.True to their jaded nature, Vicarious Me tries not to promise too much, but listeners can be assured they won't be bored by a set full of songs that all sound alike. You name it; they’ve probably left it sticky. ...
