| | Weezer Raditude CD Weezer Discography of CDs
Words such as "goofy" and "geeky" have long been used to describe Weezer's music, but these qualities are only one aspect of the band's sound; beneath all the humorous pop culture references and snarky attitude, Rivers Cuomo touched upon a myriad of serious topics including existential angst, aging, and sexual mores. While at first listen RADITUDE seems to be one of the Weezer's silliest albums (song titles include "The Girl Hot Hot" and "In the Mall"), there is, as usual, more than meets the ear. Even on the paean to debauchery "Can't Stop Partying" (the lyrics of which were written by rapper Jermaine Dupri), there is a certain undercurrent of melancholy, suggesting that the song may be simultaneously a celebration and a cry for help. "(If You're Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To," for all its teen-pop bounce and smirking descriptions of a burgeoning romance, is a surprisingly sweet, honest, and distinctly adult look at the natural arc of a relationship. Perhaps more then ever before, RADITUDE revealed that Weezer can be appreciated on several levels.

Entertainment Weekly (p.96) - "RADITUDE still feels like the product of Rivers Cuomo....His armor of choice remains an insanely catchy melody." -- Grade: B+ Raditude Review

| | Killing Floor CD (1995) With Book; Limited Edition; Digipak
Raditude CD music
$16.65 The sheer toughness -- and overall derivative -- nature of Killing Floor's debut album, issued six months after Led Zeppelin's debut in 1969 on the Spark label, is a wondrous contrast to the overly slick treatment American blues were given by British artists. All of these tunes, with the exception of one, are revamped versions of songs from the blues canon with different words. The lone "cover" in the set was written by Willie Dixon titled "Woman You Need Love," the tune Zep ripped for "Whole Lotta Love." Despite the fact that this set was issued before by Repertoire, the Akarma version is definitive ...
| | Danny Kirwan Second Chapter CD (1975) With Book; Limited Edition; Digipak
Raditude music CDs
$19.79 The first solo album from Fleetwood Mac singer/songwriter Daniel David Kirwan has the future producer for Human League and Buzzcocks, Martin Rushent, utilizing those skills here, as well as engineering. The sound is crystal clear, and a feather in the cap for Rushent as well as Kirwan. It starts off with an uncharacteristic "Ram Jam City," which has more Lindsey Buckingham sounds than one would expect, especially since the two guitarists come from two different musical worlds. "Odds and Ends" is more lighthearted, the kind of music Paul McCartney toyed with on The White Album's "Rocky Raccoon." What Second Chapter immediately sets forth ...

Raditude album
$11.39 Establishing themselves through a mega-decibel two-guitar onslaught and winning a New Music Monday at Vino's, the band traveled to Memphis to participate in the Crossroads Music Festival where they were featured on the local morning news show. Playing gigs regionally the band honed their songwriting and released their debut "Lights Out, Cairo", recorded at Poynter's Palace, in 1999."It is very obvious that Underclaire has staked out a beautiful sonic territory full of amazing dynamics. You get a sense from listening to this disc that the members of the band have been in the trenches and that the songs they sing about are full of the life experiences of their various members. They seem to be close to the march and visions of battle seem to creep into the auditory brain stem."-Paul Lovett (HTS Recording)"Whoa. I'm trying to think about the great guitar records I've heard in the last year or so. There was that Built to Spill and the Sleater-Kinney and, well, put this local band on the list. The thundering riffs work because they are tied to great structures in solid songs. "Hurricane" gives off chills. "The Last Smile" ends with a whirlpool of glistening shards. There are times when the choppy heavy metal gets to be too much and the darkness gets a little too dark. But mostly Underclaire stomps its way to a remarkable finish. A- -- Werner Trieschmann (Arkansas Democrat Gazette)2003 found the original members refreshed, experienced, and united; and they began working on tracks for a second album. In February 2004, Underclaire sought Barry Poynter, once again, and launched into sessions for their sophomore release, "Smalltown x". The time apart had proved beneficial and the band began forging a different sound: just two guitars and drums- no bass guitar. The band has matured and this album proves it. It is more stripped down. The guitars are still prominent, their tone clear and distinct. The songwriting has evolved to embrace the lack of low end notes; there are more dynamics, odd chord shapes, and the kick drum has a very distinct low end. The tracks on "Smalltown x" still stake the claim in guitar-band territory yet teeter on the verge of New Wave."Now this isn't the Underclaire I remember. True, ...
