On "Blueblood," Silkworm's first recording for Touch & Go, the group continues with their raw and stripped down indie sound. Putting the "power" in "power trio," Silkworm's music delivers a maximum emotional punch that is mournful and uncompromising. With nary an overdub in sight and no discernible trace of echo or reverb, the disc leaves you feeling as though the band is performing in your living room, miraculously not blowing out your windows with their sparse, yet ferocious sound.
Silkworm's music has been called "pop," but with it's elusive and poetic lyrics (that often don't rhyme) and tortured vocals, it certainly isn't pop in the most conventional sense. Yet there are melodies here, sometimes off-handed and half-spoken and sometimes strained. In short, Silkworm still sounds like Silkworm...and unlike anyone else.

Purchase Blueblood CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Built To Spill Keep It Like A Secret CD (1999)
Blueblood album
$9.89 Principally recorded at Bear Creek, Woodinville, Washington in November 1997.
Having led Built to Spill down the road of majestic guitar duels on 1997's PERFECT FROM NOW ON, group mastermind Doug Martsch decided to downplay (but not shelve) his six-string heroics here. Instead, the focus of Built to Spill's fourth proper full-length is the ensemble playing. Having for the first time in B2S' existence retained his rhythm section (bassist Brett ...
| | Wilco Summerteeth CD (1999)
Blueblood CD music
$9.99 Moving beyond A.M.'s Uncle Tupelo-oriented country-rock, Wilco's double-length BEING THERE explored the sonic vistas of the Stones and Big Star. SUMMER TEETH takes things a step further. A loose, inspired masterwork of rootsy power-pop in the grand mid-'70s tradition, it's the greatest album Alex Chilton never made. With perfect pop melodies and a knack for throwing things askew via left-field sonic elements, this is ...
| | Alexander "Skip" Spence Oar CD (1969) Remastered
Blueblood music CDs
$14.45 Includes liner notes by David Fricke, Greil Marcus and Jud Cost.
The late Alexander Spence, also known as Skip Spence, was in two of the best American West Coast bands of the '60s, Moby Grape and Jefferson Airplane. After a bout with mental illness, Spence recorded OAR for Columbia Records. The album is a wonderfully quirky journey that only a product of the American '60s could have produced.
Spence played all the instruments on this album and drew freely from the root genres that made up the foundations of mid-'60s ...
| | Silkworm Firewater CD (1996)
Blueblood songs
$8.75 With Andy Cohen's electric guitar ranging (and raging) freely between distorted gobs of rhythmic crunch and open-ended lead splatter, Silkworm are the punk-rockers most likely to be mistaken for Neil Young. Or Television. Or, give 'em a few years, Son Volt. Pick your era, pick ...
| | Silkworm Italian Platinum CD (2002)
Blueblood album
$12.85 Silkworm is not one of those indie rock bands one can easily pigeonhole, or for that matter forget. Like Pavement, they present lyrics running the gamut from the absurdly prescient to the simply absurd, sung in a lilting, off-key style (although Andy Cohen's vocals eminate from a darker and grittier world than the higher-pitched Mr. Malkmus). ...
| | Buggles Adventures In Modern Recording CD (1982)
Blueblood CD music
$13.04 It wasn't surprising that the Buggles' second release, Adventures in Modern Recording, didn't meet the expectations that 1980's internationally successful The Age of Plastic set. Both Horn and Downes had been working on several outside projects, including Yes' 1980 release Drama, which severely limited their time, and for the most part, Adventures was a Trevor Horn solo project; Geoff Downes only appears on three tracks. However, many of the criticisms leveled against this outing were unfounded and there is still much to like; several songs, such as the infectious title track, equal The Age of Plastic. Both "Adventures in Modern Recording" and "Inner City," with its lush arrangement and engrossing melody, show off Horn's remarkable production savvy. Horn and Downes collaborations like the sultry "Vermillion ...

Blueblood songs
$12.65 The Pogues' final album to feature original lead singer Shane McGowan, 1990's HELL'S DITCH was produced by Joe Strummer and includes an increased world music influence on songs like the first single "Summer In Siam."
After the embattled recording of the Pogues' Peace and Love, with Shane MacGowan clearly at odds with his bandmates and their musical direction while contributing little in the way of new songs, Hell's Ditch seemed ...
