With their literate, lush, and countrified indie folk Brooklyn's Timesbold spans the rather sizable gap between Lyle Lovett and Bright Eyes on their self-titled debut. Lead singer and songwriter Jason Merritt's voice is plaintive and earnest, with a slight quiver, but never pretentiously emotive. And his lyrics, while not dazzlingly profound, speak of heartbreak and disappointment in simple and subtle terms, always avoiding cliché. Timesbold has an intimate handmade feel, and the instrumentation -- mostly acoustic, but including such odd choices as theremin and optigan -- suits the songs well, adding an extra dimension to this well-rounded debut. ~ Jason Nickey

Sufjan Stevens Illinois CD  (2005)

Timesbold

The second entry from sui generis singer/songwriter Sufjan Stevens in his absurdly ambitious project to make a record for every state in America outdistances even 2003's superb GREETINGS FROM MICHIGAN in scope and beauty. A sweeping paean to the Lincoln state, ILLINOIS weaves together history, personal confession, and detail-filled scenarios with chamber folk, expansive orchestral pop, and back-porch pastoral settings for a stunningly progressive indie gem that sound like Brian Wilson, Stereolab, and Neil Young holding hands in heaven. Remarkably, in its intricate, gorgeously crafted surfaces, ILLINOIS lives up to its aims. In addition to its symphonic grandeur, the album also showcases Stevens's heartland folk, and some of the album's most shimmering moments are its most spare. "John Wayne Gacy, Jr.," for instance, is an absorbing narrative that features Stevens's sweet tenor couched by guitar, piano, and backing vocals. "Casimir Pulaski Day," similarly, rides a rootsy banjo and guitar groove while Stevens unfurls image-rich lyrics over a lilting melody. Witty, audacious, and moving, ILLINOIS manages to be spiritual, entertaining, and educational ...

The sisters Casady set the weirdness bar awfully high on their homemade debut, LA MAISON DE MON REVE, but this inspired follow-up finds the bar ascended as the angels take it on the road, recording everywhere from barnyards to actual music studios. As usual, classically trained vocalist Sierra delivers the delirious operatic vocalizing and plays piano, dulcimer, and autoharp while Bianca coos like a 12-year old vampire Billie Holiday ...

In The Moment
Kaskade In The Moment CD  (2004)

Timesbold
CD $13.49  4.5 stars Audio Samples
Kaskade's second artist album is a surprisingly complex and thoroughly winning kaleidoscope of soulful flavors, some of them (like the leadoff single, "Steppin' Out") built on acoustic sounds and others with a more typical house or funk foundation. What makes the album's sound so unique and complex is that its predominant voices are those of real-world analog instruments instead of synthesized imitations. The rich string section that accompanies the pumping bass and stutter-step breakbeat on "Maybe" gives the whole track an organic warmth that you don't usually hear on a DJ album -- and when Kaskade warps the string sound into a queasy sonic mess, the result is all the more effective because the strings were such an integral part of the song's texture up until that point. The album's best moment comes on a complex, dub-inflected little piece of splintered trip-hop called "Sweet Love," which features a singer named Joslyn, who is responsible for a couple of other high points on the program as well. There's loverman soul courtesy of Rob Wannamaker ("One You" and the jazzy "Let You Go"), and even something that sounds strangely like a tribute to New Order (Andy Caldwell's "Everything"). Only the plodding "Yeah Right" leaves something to be desired on this excellent collection. ~ Rick Anderson Arrangers: Craig Poole; John Hancock ...

Slainte of San Francisco Bay Along Celtic Lines CD  (2004)

"SLAINTE" means "Cheers" in Irish Gaelic. Along these lines we toast the traditional music of Ireland, Scotland, Brittany, France, England, Cape Breton, the Appalachian Highlands, and traditionally inspired contemporary tunes as played in the San Francisco Bay Area.Karl takes a multi-instrumental approach to this music, playing the guitar, octave mandolin, button accordion, pennywhistle, jaw harp, and bodhran (the Irish frame drum).Peter's musical vision stems from his fascination with the Appalachian mountain dulcimer, and its distant cousin--also a member of the zither family of string instruments--the hammered dulcimer.Collectively they have played traditional Irish, American and other roots music for 5 decades, several years of this with each other, and many more performing and jamming with ...

Michael Thomas CD  (2007)

Timesbold
CD $11.15
Austin, Texas’ Michael Thomas is putting his own brand on today’s country music. With an extensive background of writing and performing pop, rock, and country music, Michael is now embracing his South East Texas musical roots to create a new and exciting sound in the Country genre. On his debut self-titled album, Michael exemplifies his influences. Harking back to the sounds of late 60’s/70’s California country-rock(Gram Parsons,Poco,The Eagles)into the 80’s fiery Cowpunk scene(Rank and File,The Blasters,Lone Justice,The Babylonian Cowboys and Dwight Yoakam). Michael is also adding his homegrown influences such as George Jones, Ray Price, Freddy Fender, Roy Orbison, and Buck Owens as well as the Austin Outlaw Country sounds(Willy Nelson,Waylon Jennings,and Rusty Weir). As Dwight brought his Kentucky Hillbilly roots to Hollywood, Michael is bringing his “Swamps of Texas”, as he calls it, soulful roots up-to-date and he’s kicking down the door into the new millennium of county music. With a fine mixture of solid dance-hall grooves, great lyrics, and memorable melodies, Michael’s first solo record is a sure bet to be a hit with country and pop music fans alike.Born in Beaumont,Texas, Michael Thomas was surrounded by country music and down home, working class country attitude. “Most of these songs are based around a single character”, he says. “I’ve been around the block more than a few times and I’ve seen the best AND the worst in ...
