Purchase Cafe Solaire 13 CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Radian Chimeric CD (2009)
Cafe Solaire 13
$12.78 Austrian synth-bass-drums trio Radian has been making austere, arty post-rock (remember when that was a thing?) music since the late '90s. But unlike Tortoise or other, related acts, Radian has never seemed particularly interested in human concepts of beauty. In a way, their stark instrumental tracks recall Autechre more than any ordinary band -- alienation is as much a goal as a consequence of their steadily pulsing, jagged music. This new ...

| | Heavy Trash Midnight Soul Serenade CD (2009)
Cafe Solaire 13
$12.15 On their third album, 2009's Midnight Soul Serenade, Heavy Trash keep delivering the good old rock & roll, rockabilly, and hillbilly soul that their first two albums handed out like candy at a Fourth of July parade. Jon Spencer and Matt Verta-Ray hit their stride right away on their debut and continue to be nothing short of great. They make no great changes to their sound here; it's still loose as geese on the rockers and pleasantly spooky on the ballads. Spencer and Verta-Ray still conjure all kinds of unhinged noise from the guitars, yet remain firmly within the bounds of the songs. Best of all, Spencer fully embraces his role as greasy, rockabilly crooner with an unrestrained joy and fervor. His performance on their cover of LaVern Baker's "Bumble Bee" ...
| | Radio Dept Pet Grief CD (2006) (Import) Hong Kong
Cafe Solaire 13
$12.65 In the chorus of Pet Grief's lead single and catchiest song, Radio Dept. head Johan Duncanson makes the touching if rather petty confession that the only reason he's able to withstand his jealous despair is the knowledge that his would-be romantic rival has "the worst taste in music." Well, if it makes him feel better, there's certainly no doubting his and his bandmates' taste -- like their buzzy, buzzed-about debut, Pet Grief evinces an impeccably fashionable roll call of influences from British post-punk and shoegaze to more recent electronic indie and dream pop, and if that's not enough, the hook of "What Will Give?" offers the gratuitously hip reference: "I want to hide, like Jandek before playing live." But taste only gets you so far -- if you're going to wear your influences on your sleeve, you'd better have your heart on it too, if not some other tricks up it as well. Lesser Matters had the heart, the humanity, the class, the confidence, and the pop chops, in spades, to pull off its stylish simulations ...

| | Strapps Live At The Rainbow 1977 CD (2008) (Import) United Kingdom
Cafe Solaire 13
$16.19 The Strapps weren't exactly dinosaurs; in fact, their debut album hit the shops in 1976, but that didn't stop the punks stomping them to death regardless. By 1978, the group were done in, strapped for cash, gigs, and a drummer, when Mick Underwood was pinched by Ian Gillan for his eponymous band. But in their two-year life-span, the group released four albums, undertook two major tours, the first supporting Deep Purple, the second Ian Gillan Band, and captured their 1977 set at London's Rainbow club for posterity on both tape and film. The Strapps certainly had a lot going for them, beginning, of course, with the fabulous rhythm section of veteran Underwood and young gun Joe Read. Beyond that pair there was their phenomenal keyboardist Noel Scott. An extremely versatile musician, Scott could splash out acid drenched passages, cathedral chords, and rollicking R&B barrelhouse piano at will, but rarely where one would expect to hear them. Aussie frontman Ross Stagg was all gruff vocals and smoking guitar, flicking out riffs and licks in a futile attempt to beat Scott to the spotlight. If they had arrived a few years earlier, the band would have steamrolled across the scene with their ferocious live performances; in ...
