Beginning with the rumbling and enjoyably bass-heavy "Woodpecker Greeting Worker Ant" -- a title that may explain the air of gentle threat throughout, despite the concluding voices of winsome cheer -- SIGNAL MORNING finds a veteran of Olivia Tremor Control, Will Cullen Hart, with help from not only all his former bandmates but fellow travelers from Neutral Milk Hotel, returning to the Circulatory System name after a break of eight years. The fact that one of those fellow travelers is Jeff Mangum will be reason enough for that performer's rabid cult to take an interest, but this is neither a supergroup nor a full reunion of Hart's older band. It's just Hart working within the psych/experimental/indie vein that made Elephant 6 a byword for many (and which helped lay the groundwork for the even wider acceptance of acts like Animal Collective).

Spin (p.78) - "Distant, filtered vocals, fuzz guitars, synth eruptions, and booming drums predominate but don't overpower the bright jangly anthems or regal rockers."
Alternative Press (p.106) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The fuzz-enveloped 'Woodpecker Greeting Worker Ant' introduces a heavier, mightier backing to the Athens, Georgia, group's multi-part harmonies."
Paste (magazine) (p.49) - "SIGNAL MORNING is an epic, challenging, noisy psychedelic opus of the highest order."

Signal Morning
 $15.95   
Includes an untitled hidden track at the end of THE LOVE BELOW CD.
Additional personnel includes: Sleepy Brown, Jazze Pha, Jay-Z, Killer Mike, Big Gipp, Ludacris, Rosario Dawson, Norah Jones, Kelis, Cee-Lo, Lil Jon, Mello, Slim Calhoun, Kuhjo Goodie.
SPEAKERBOXXX/THE LOVE BELOW won the 2004 Grammy Awards for Album Of The Year and for Best Rap Album. "Hey Ya!" won for Best Urban/Alternative Performance. The song was also nominated for Record Of The Year.
Simply put, there is no band that does anything close to what Outkast does. Big Boi & Andre 3000 have consistently managed to maintain mainstream success while obliterating the limits of what is considered to be hip-hop. Frolicking at the outskirts of language, they throw every genre into a blender and make every musical turn sound organic. SPEAKERBOXXX/THE LOVE BELOW is actually two solo records fused together, the former by Big Boi, the latter by Andre 3000, with each mind working at an equally frantic pace to create a gloriously split sonic experience.
Big Boi opens with a techno intro that fades into industrial-style grinding on "Ghettomusick," before settling into more traditional, although far from ordinary, rap tracks on "Unhappy" and "The Way You Move." His most salient moment comes on "War," an uncompromising condemnation of American ...
| | Dizzee Rascal Boy In Da Corner CD (2004) Bonus Track; Enhanced CD
Signal Morning
$9.89  
At only 18 years of age, British MC Dizzee Rascal made a strikingly audacious debut with BOY IN DA CORNER. Born of the UK garage/2-step scene, but inspired by the dark lyrical content of American hip-hop (Wu-Tang Clan, Mobb Deep), Dizzee combines these influences to form his own distinctive style. The result is a collection of tracks that are almost physical in their assault on listeners' senses.
The production, provided by Dizzee himself, sounds like the score for a grimy, post-apocalyptic video game set in a shadowy, dangerous underworld ("Stop Dat," "2 Far," "Hold Ya Mouf"). On the mic, ...
| | Trail Of Dead Worlds Apart CD (2005)
Signal Morning
$10.65
With its surging rhythms, angst-ridden vocals, and showers of distorted guitars, And You Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead combine the muscle of heavy rock, the sonic swirl of shoegazer bands, and a touch of emo sensibility into a powerful package. But while the noise-rock cultivated on earlier albums (MADONNA and SOURCE CODES & TAGS) is here, WORLDS APART shows Trail of Dead taking a step forward in terms of songcraft, with a surprising emphasis on melody and accessibility.
"The Lost City of Refuge," for example, moves along at a dreamy shuffle, and "The Summer of '91" begins as an introspective piano-driven ballad before the dynamics fluctuate into crashing chords and rolling tympani. The expansive "The Rest Will Follow" merges chiming Britpop with a martial interlude, while the violin-fueled waltz of "To Russia My Homeland" shows the group more than willing to mix it up stylistically. The ominous ...
| | Dinosaur Jr Beyond CD (2007) Digipak
Signal Morning
$10.09 
As one of the seminal college-rock bands of the late '80s/early '90s, Dinosaur Jr. definitively bridged the gap between the musical mindsets of '80s "alternative" and '90s "indie." Along the way, they influenced scads of young slackers wielding fuzzy guitars and moldy Neil Young albums. The recordings around which the band's legend largely revolves (GREEN MIND, YOU'RE LIVING ALL OVER ME, BUG) epitomized the slacker-rock aesthetic through J. Mascis's laid-back drawl and the band's Crazy Horse-meets-Replacements attack. After bassist Lou Barlow split for Sebadoh, Dinosaur Jr. ...
