At the time of Mishap's release, Texans-turned-Chicagoans Lozenge had been making this kind of noise for ten years. This time around, they decided to release a live album. Lozenge plays caterwauling, free-range, experimental noise-core, and Mishap is full of chaotic, compelling, and sometimes compellingly abrasive explorations. The group's noise/metal/experimental compositions are spurred to life by oboe, Moog, accordion, tenor sax, guitar, and metal percussion, and their approach to improvisation can be as exhilarating as a free fall at times. "Bambam" is a collision between metallic clattering and bleating free jazz, while "Breaking the Chains" is almost linear at times, rumbling atop a pulsing bassline. The group also tackles the Birthday Party's "Big Jesus Trash Can." Lozenge is not for everyone, but those unhassled by radical improvisation and, well, noise will find Mishap a daring listen. ~ Erik Hage

Lozenge: Kyle Bruckmann (vocals, oboe, accordion, Moog synthesizer); Kurt Johnson (various instruments); Mark Stevens (drums); Phillip Montoro (percussion).

Additional personnel: Chuck Falzone (guitar); Boris Hauf (tenor saxophone).

5 stars Lozenge Release Perfect Mix of Music, Noise and Mayhem
I liked Chicago jazz-punk juggernaut Lozenge's first CD Doozy (2000, ToYo recs.) a lot. The sound of this experimental rock band is frikking amazing!! The leader Kyle Bruckmann plays electrified punk accordian! If that wasn't enough, he also contributes Kah-Razy Moog synth parts, screaming-rant vocals, and punk oboe (I told you it was amazing). The band has a great electric bassist in Kurt Johnson, and for the most phat 'n ugly rhythm section you'll ever hear-- both drummer Mark Stevens and a full-time "Metal Percussion" player, Philip Montoro. On Mishap, Lozenge fans get both studio tracks, and urgent live cuts from a 2002 concert which featured a guest guitarist (Chuck Falzone?) and free-jazz saxophonist Boris Hauf. I found the CD to be the best mix of creative thrash-improv ever. The songs have a complex poly-rhythmic hook that grabs onto you like a drowning swimmer, and on that they build rich, detailed layers of pulsing noise and notes. The combination of crazy Moog, thrashy guitar, ranting alto sax with the monster bass/drum/metal rhythm section is brilliant, and you can't look away. Now I just wish Lozenge would go on tour with guests like these, and maybe come to my small city in downstate Illinois! - Frank Trompeter, leader of elevator shoe, and producer of the Innovators New Music Series, which featured Lozenge in a July, 2001 concert.

Unlike its 2002 predecessor Back in the U.S., Good Evening New York City doesn't cherrypick highlights from a tour, it commemorates a specific event: the inauguration of Citi Field -- the replacement for the now-defunct Shea Stadium, where the Beatles played a legendary show in 1965 -- in the summer of 2009. The circumstances may be different -- different enough to lead to a Billy Joel cameo on "I Saw Her Standing There," the piano man returning a favor from Paul, ...

Greatest Hits
Janis Joplin Greatest Hits CD  (1973)

Mishap
CD $6.39  4.8 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
GREATEST HITS spans the length of Janis Joplin's recording career, and features songs recorded with each of her three bands--Big Brother & The Holding Co., the Kozmic Blues Band, and the Full Tilt Boogie Band. Originally released on Columbia (32168). Includes liner notes by Jaan Uhelszki. Digitally remastered by Vic Anesini at Sony Music Studios, New York, New York. Drawing inspiration from Bessie Smith and Odetta, Joplin developed a brash, uncompromising vocal style quite unlike accustomed folk madonnas. In 1966 Janis was invited to the Bay Area to front Big Brother And The Holding Company. Their CHEAP THRILLS, a joyous celebration of true psychedelic soul, contained two Joplin 'standards', "Piece Of My Heart" and "Ball And Chain", but she left the group in November 1968. Electric Flag members Mike Bloomfield, Harvey Brooks and Nick Gravenites helped assemble a new act, known as the Kozmic Blues Band. I Got Dem Ol' KOZMIC BLUES Again Mama was coolly received, but the set contained several excellent Joplin vocals, notably "Try," "Maybe" and "Little Girl Blue". The singer subsequently dissolved the band and undertook medical advice for drink/drug abuse. A slimmed-down group, the Full Tilt Boogie Band, was unveiled in May 1970 featuring a tighter, ...
Global Underground: Moscow
Deep Dish Global Underground: Moscow CDs  (2001)

Mishap
CD $21.05  4.7 stars Audio Samples
This is a continuous in-the-mix CD compiled and mixed by Deep Dish. "Thank You (Deep Dish Vocal Remix)" won the 2002 Grammy Award For Best Remixed Recording. Incredibly nocturnal and hypnotic, propelled from the beginning of the first set to the end of the second with gigantic basslines and murky vocal dubs, Deep Dish's debut mix for the long-running Global Underground series is absolutely enveloping. It submerses you with its weight and its darkness as well as its numbing sense of bliss. Where much of progressive house around the time of this album's release in late 2001 had become too melancholic and weighed down for its own good, feeling more like a come-down than a sensual rush, Dubfire and Sharam don't fall victim to these tendencies on Global Underground: Moscow like they had a few months earlier on their lumbering Yoshiesque, Vol. 2 mix. First of all, they drop plenty of vocal tracks. These aren't your traditional vocal house tracks, but rather the sort of vocal dubs that bury the often muted and stoned-sounding vocals in the music rather than overwhelm you with singsong excess. Secondly, they drop the right tracks at the right times, namely surefire tracks like their own remixes of Dido's "Thank You" and iio's "Rapture" along with other similar tracks like Sander Kleinenberg's remix of PMT's "Deeper Water" and 16b's remix of John Creamer & Stephane K.'s "I Wish You Were Here." These tracks were some of the year's best progressive house productions and all feature the same sort of sexy vocals that the duo litter throughout this mix. In fact, you can't help but keep coming back to the vocals that seem to fade in and out of the mix every few minutes, never too upfront in the mix, always fading out before you've had enough. Dubfire and Sharam obviously recognize ...
