Oppenheimer: Tim Wheeler (vocals).CMJ (p.7) - "Keeping the basslines fuzzy and the computerized effects echo-laden makes this sound, at once, intimate and otherworldly." Oppenheimer Review

Purchase Oppenheimer CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | American Analog Set Promise Of Love CD (2003)
Oppenheimer
$9.49 American Analog Set's fifth studio offering, PROMISE OF LOVE, shows remarkable range and ambition. Of course, even recording the album was no small feat, considering the band's bi-regional status, as singer-songwriter Andrew Kenny relocated to Brooklyn, leaving the rest of the band behind in Austin. On moody, contemplative numbers such as "You Own Me," American Analog Set tones down its trademark drone sensibilities in favor of more languid melodies and understated, breathy vocals. AmAnSet also deftly balances the low key, krautrock influenced numbers with more percussion-heavy rock songs, such as "Promise of Love" and "The Hatist." Despite personnel relocation, PROMISE OF LOVE proves to be a cohesive effort, combining dreamy melodies with calculated textured instrumentation.

| | Rock Kills Kid Are you Nervous? CD (2006)
Oppenheimer
$12.55 With brash guitar riffs swirling over the tattoos of melancholy synthesizers, ARE YOU NERVOUS? is Rock Kills Kid's contribution to the brand new wave of the early 2000s. Both dark and danceable, this album creates as convincing an '80s retro sound as you'll find. If you listen for them, you can hear traces of everyone from The Cure to Kajagoogoo. But Rock Kills Kid is very much its own band. The songs on this album tell ...

| | Hot Chip Warning CDs (2006)
Oppenheimer
$12.49 Nearly 20 years on from the infamous 'Disco Demolition Night' at Chicago's Comiskey Park--a rally that forever etched the phrase "disco sucks" into the American consciousness--an unexpected alliance has been struck between the indie-pop world and the more synthetic, mechanized strains of dance music. Leading firebrands in this renaissance, the New York production duo DFA, have teamed up with U.K. ensemble Hot Chip for their latest effort, WARNING.
Hot Chip vocalist Joe Goddard's disaffected monotone provides a cool contrast to Alexis Taylor's lilting falsetto, a strategy that pays off on the driving "And I Was A Boy From School." The typically raw DFA production emphasizes rhythmic nuance over pop polish--this is stylized, minimal dance pop in the tradition ...
| | Futureheads News And Tributes CD (2006)
Oppenheimer
$11.69 Recorded in the English countryside with producer Ben Hillier (Doves, Elbow), the Futureheads' sophomore album, NEW AND TRIBUTES, finds the Sunderland-based quartet building on their crisp, punchy self-titled debut. On this outing, the group offers up its trademark euphoric four-part vocal harmonies, while tempering fierce guitar lines and hard-hitting rhythms with more expansive and melodic arrangements. The wonderfully catchy single "Skip to the End" reinforces the Futureheads' link to revered New Wave post-punk acts, particularly, in this case, XTC. Those who favor the Futureheads' more aggressive side will be pleased by the furious "Return of the Berserker," but, overall, the disc goes for a thoughtful, multi-layered approach, as evinced on the melodic track, "Back ...
| | Tapes 'n Tapes Loon CD (2005)
Oppenheimer
$12.19 With their debut album, THE LOON, Minneapolis quartet Tapes n' Tapes took the indie music world by storm, riding a wave of critical acclaim and enthusiastic word-of-mouth from obscurity to the semi-obscurity that is indie stardom. The album is a collage of fractured, melodic bits artfully combined into wonderfully listenable songs. The structures are unconventional but organic, lending a warmth and even coziness to the album as it reference all your favorite bands, from Pavement to the Pixies to the Talking Heads.
For all the post-punk influences, though, the arrangements and the meandering, seemingly improvised structures also have a slight jam-band ...

| | Dave Matthews Some Devil CD (2003)
Oppenheimer
$14.05 "Gravedigger" won the 2004 Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance.
The Dave Matthews Band gained its reputation as a collective effort, so much so that Matthews's first official solo album might have been expected to signal a drastic change in direction. Ultimately, Matthews found a way to have his cake and eat it too on SOME DEVIL. While the distinctive contributions of his noted band members are absent here, he nevertheless goes for a not-dissimilar singer-songwriter-meets-worldbeat-pop vibe. Though Leroi Moore's sax and Boyd Tinsley's violin don't color the arrangements, SOME DEVIL offers a rhythm section--Daniel Lanois/Emmylou Harris cohorts Tony Hall and Brady Blade--that's adept at mixing rock, funk, jazz, and New Orleans R&B with Matthews's cerebral compositions, much as they did with Harris on WRECKING BALL. Jam-band peer Trey Anastasio of Phish joins longtime Matthews sideman Tim Reynolds on guitar, contributing tasteful and concise playing.
While many of the tunes bear a strongly propulsive element, not least on account of Matthews's trademark percussive guitar style, SOME DEVIL is mostly more low-key than the DMB's work. "Grey Blue Eyes" sounds like it could have come off a latter-day Peter Gabriel album, while "Baby" is Matthews's acoustic-guitar-and-strings shot at "Yesterday." Towards this end, the blues-rocking "Gravedigger" is reprised at the disc's close in a quiet acoustic version.
Initial pressings included a 5 song bonus disc.
Recorded at Studio Litho, Studio X, Seattle, Washington and Bastyr University, Kenore, Washington between October 2002 ...
| | Jimmy Eat World Futures CDs (2004) (Import) Import; United Kingdom
Oppenheimer
$22.35 This UK tour edition includes two bonus tracks, and a bonus CD of demos.
After firmly establishing itself in the hearts and minds of rock fans through numerous EPs and two albums of angst-fueled power-pop, Jimmy Eat World scored a big hit single with "The Middle," from the excellent BLEED AMERICAN (re-christened JIMMY EAT WORLD in the wake of 9/11). The mainstream had finally caught up with Jimmy Eat World.
FUTURES, the ensemble's first album following its breakthrough, doesn't stray from the formula that has worked so well for the Arizona band. Jim Adkins's vocals are quietly insistent, and at times fiery, conveying reflective, intelligent lyrics that complement intricate melodies. Like its immediate predecessor, FUTURES opens with a politically minded title track ("I hope for better in November"), but, in general, ...
