2004 reissue of the nihilistic Portland, OR, hardcore outfit's classic 1990 album, features 13 tracks packaged with a slipcase. Golf Records.
Poison Idea: Jerry A (vocals); Pig Champion (guitar); Myrtle Tickner (bass); Thee Slayer Hippy (drums).
Additional personnel: Aldine Strycnine (guitar); Mondo (piano, bass); Tony Lash, Bob Stark (piano).
Portland, Oregon's Poison Idea were never a subtle act. In fact, they resided at the furthest end of the opposite spectrum, fusing the pummeling rhythm section of heavy metal, with the crunching three-chord speed and fury of American hardcore, topped off with Jerry A.'s snarling, larger than life baritone, spitting out declamation after declamation against the world. That would be larger than life in more ways than just his Stentorian roar: Jerry, like guitarist Pig Champion, and for that matter, drummer Thee Slayer Hippy, are veritable giants, in height and girth. Reissued in 1996 by Epitaph Records, Feel the Darkness is, simply stated, Poison Idea's most blistering moment in the sun, a steamrolling mass of furious speed and aggression, tempered with excellent drum and guitar work. Poison Idea, while helping to establish the template for American hardcore, were a talented bunch, and resided more often than not as much in metal as in punk. Though its predecessor, Record Collector's Are Pretentious Assholes modestly proved the growing talents of this band, Feel the Darkness established that as concrete fact. Songs like "Gone For Good", and "Just to Get Away" barrel forth like runaway locomotives, while the title track resonates with hair-raising depth, and slow-fused power. ~ Patrick Kennedy

It had to happen: with the fever for retroactive musical styles running especially rampant through the heavy metal community in the mid-`00s (see parallel examples from The Sword, Witchcraft, Wolfmother, and others), some band was bound to try resurrecting the once thriving confluence of thrash and hardcore generally labeled as "crossover." And few who remember the sub-genre in its original form would dispute that Richmond, Virginia's Municipal Waste really did their homework, delivering in their second album, 2005's Hazardous Mutation, as authentic a blast of `80s crossover ...

$12.39
Joan Of Arc includes: Tim Kinsella (vocals).
Additional personnel: Jen Wood (vocals).
Say what you want about Tim Kinsella's voice, but his is an instrument capable of producing beautiful music both in and out of tune, sung or screamed. His lyrics are smarter and, at times, more sincere than most of the typical sentiments projected by American indie rock. It's clear the guy knows what he's doing, but too often on Joan Of Arc's new album Live In Chicago, 1999, one wishes Kinsella ...

Recording information: Ranscombe Studios, Rochester, Kent, England.
UK garage band the Len Price 3 play raw beat-inspired rock & roll in the proud tradition of fellow Medway native the Wildman Billy Childish. The stripped-to-the-bone guitar/bass/drum combo make an ever-so-slightly more polished skronk than that of Childish, with more of a nod going to, say, the Kinks than Jimmy Reed. In fact, the track "Sailor's Song," even managed find its way into an Old Navy ad stateside.
It's impossible to miss the Len Price 3's ...

Marlene Ver Planck's limpid voice, blended with elegant vocal delivery and enriched by Billy Ver Planck's superb musical arrangements, brings a touch of high class to a medium that could sometimes be merely sensual; this elegance takes jazz to a much hig
Personnel: Marlene Ver Planck (vocals); Marian McPartland, Hank Jones, George Shearing (piano); Bucky Pizzarelli (guitar); Gary Mazzaroppi (bass); Joe Cocuzzo (drums).
Recorded at Hillside Studio, Englewood, New Jersey in September 1999. Includes liner notes by James Gavin.
She's come a long, long way from the time she set the jingle world on end by singing those three syllables, "mmm-mmm-good," and kicking off a commercial idolization of Campbells Soup. My Impetuous Heart, Marlene Ver Planck's 16th album and first for DRG, makes manifest that her voice is as light, lilting, clear, and entertaining as it ever was, maybe even more so. Her backing on this album, with the Hank Jones Trio taking the lion's share of accompanying duties, is as impeccable as the playlist, which blends standards with some compositions that aren't performed often.
There are guest appearances by George Shearing, Marian McPartland, and Bucky Pizzarelli on a couple of the cuts.
Ver Planck is blessed with an unsurpassed sense of timing and phrasing. Listen to her with Hank Jones on the "Friends" medley "Can't We Be Friends" and "Just Friends." Those small pauses between phrases has the listener waiting in anticipation for the next line. No matter what the style, Ver Planck handles it with aplomb. She's bouncy with "Call Me Irresponsible," where Jones gets some solo time, and she's soulful on "Fools Fall in Love." Ver Planck doesn't scat -- at least not very much -- but engages in sophisticated cooing and humming on "...Irresponsible" and on the introduction to Mal Waldron's "Soul Eyes." Pizzarelli's guitar does melodic but unobtrusive yeoman work in support as Ver Planck caresses haunting lyrics penned by the undervalued vocalist Bev Kelly. Excellent playing by Hank Jones' regular ...
