 (2 Customer Reviews)
While it took Mission of Burma more than two decades to follow up its 1982 debut with 2004's ONOFFON, the Boston-based post-punk act needed only two years to create their third full-length outing, THE OBLITERATI. As on its predecessor, this ... Full Description'06 album rumbles along with both heft and speed, and shows a band remarkably hitting its stride more than 20 years into its career. Core members Roger Miller (guitar/vocals), Clint Conley (bass/vocals), and Peter Prescott (drums/vocals) all contribute numerous tracks, and although fierce, highly percussive tunes are the order of the day (see the blistering "Spider's Web" and the lumbering "Let Yourself Go"), the disc also leaves room for disarmingly spare moments, most notably the melancholy, string-laden "13." Anyone under the impression that the Mission of Burma reunion was a one-shot deal will be set straight by THE OBLITERATI.
Mission Of Burma: Clint Conley, Peter Prescott, Roger Miller , Bob Weston.
Recording information: Q Division, Somerville, Massachussets.
Rolling Stone (p.96) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Roger Miller's multilayered guitar attack buzzes and hisses as fiercely as any other band out there."
Q (p.113) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "These broiling drum-led riffs offer curdled cries, much volume and even humour..."
Alternative Press (p.204) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "The sound that inspired bands like Sonic Youth -- and thus the indie-rock blueprint -- is still intact..."
The Wire (p.45) - "THE OBLITERATI is packed with energy and furious with ideas. It takes the basic verities of post-punk but twists and evolves them into songs that are immediate and vibrant."
Kerrang (Magazine) (p.56) - "Refining their stripped-bare post-punk sound with an elegantly anguished sense of melody that suits the introspective, confessional lyrics..."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.94) - "THE OBLITERATI finds Peter Prescott's fierce drumming, Roger Miller's whiplash guitar and Clint Conley's unequivocal bass still in rude health."

Obliterati album
 $14.89  
Never one to tread the expected path, Lucinda Williams followed her big breakthrough album, CAR WHEELS ON A GRAVEL ROAD, with a pair of low-key records full of sad, quiet, fragile songs (interrupted by the occasional barn-burner). LIVE @ THE FILLMORE concentrates heavily on those latter two releases, unleashing all the intense, burning emotions that lay at their core, making plain the inherent frisson lurking below the surface of such ostensibly laconic tunes as "Lonely Girls" and "Righteously." Meanwhile, songs that already ...

Obliterati music CDs
$12.09  
Sonic Youth's turn-of-the-century output has shown a marked focus on the more abstract aspects of the band's sound, as evidenced by, if nothing else, the prolific number of experimental releases on the band's SYR imprint, including the double-album tribute to avant-garde composers, GOODBYE 20TH CENTURY. And while to use the phrase "stylistic departure" is unbefitting of a band with such catholic tastes and influences, the straightforward pop element that marks 2006's RATHER RIPPED, the band's 14th proper studio album, is so pronounced and, to a certain extent, jarring, it's difficult not to focus in on it. From the Thin Lizzy-like twin-guitar interlude on "Incinerate" to the gentle lullaby melody of "Do You Believe in the Rapture" (arguably the loveliest song Sonic Youth has produced since "Diamond ...

“Implausibly funny and entertaining. All four performers sing and harmonize beautifully and are backed by terrific band. Brilliant childlike songs and ferocious rhythm and blues ballads.” — New York Times“A miracle of topicality. A cabaret-style evening of sprightly song stylings, funky grooves and a nice boom-chicak-boom beat when Hanna Cheek strips out of her clothes. Superfast lyrics ensure we stay on our toes, just long enough to get the knockout punch delivered in Arian Moayed’s final number, a memorial to those lost in battle.” — Time Out New York“The dynamic ensemble’s energy revitalizes this ancient allegory. They exploit Iranian American Arian Moayed’s bilingualism in a hilarious Farsi song, and discover disco fever when the pimped-out King Darius returns from Hades to witness his son’s reckless destruction of a glorious empire.” — Village VoiceThis ambitious, nifty nightclub act begins with a smart Fosse-style song and dance and culminates in a woeful lamentation of the soul. Clever, electrifying and always mesmerizing, Waterwell has artfully staked a claim on our collective ...

The music of Kovlo could be defined as post-rock, with influences from noise-rock and even jazz. Through experimentation and putting together different personalities, after some months the project Kovlo takes a shape and creates its own way. The first round ends in September 2005, with the release of the first CD A new position for a second degree burnt, recorded at the historical Bips Studio in Milan (recording studio in the past of bands like Afterhours, Matia Bazar and Casino Royale), with the support of the sound engineer Nicola Calgari (collaborator in the past of Matia Bazar, Ivano Fossati, Afterhours, Prozac+).
