DBT Week in Review - 8/12/11

Lauderdale

Shoal band Lauderdale released their 2nd record this week titled 'Moving On'. It is a mighty fine one that you should add to your collection. The song 'Grant Hotel' is one of the most rocking whore-house songs you'll every encounter.

Centro-matic – Candidate Waltz � Stereo Subversion

from Will Johnson:
"THANK YOU

Buckets of gratitude go to those who came out and shared in these recent shows with us and our friend, Sarah Jaffe. It’s been an important chapter in our collective creative lives. Seven months ago we confidently decided to streamline and shorten the path to our fans by self-releasing our music. It was the right time to simplify things, and hopefully strengthen our connection with those who continue to support us. Candidate Waltz has been our first step in that direction. Ten Centro-matic records in, this was our most encouraging and enjoyable tour yet. It has also been the best start sales and press-wise for any record that we’ve released. Thanks to all that have supported our cause, spent some time with our music, come out to the shows, purchased our records, and have therefore enabled us to keep doing this. Can’t wait ’til we see each other again."

"Although the songs on the album are steeped in Southern rock tradition, the different flavorings likely aren't surprising when one considers Isbell's rich taste in music.

'I really like the Ting Tings,' he said. 'They are fun. I'm not crazy about [a lot of] hip-hop these days. I lot of hip-hop artists are not as creative as they were in the past. They are piling on guest appearances. MIA is doing some cool stuff, though, and Kid Cudi is a talented guy.'"

DBT Week in Review - 1/14/11

DBT!

Read the rest of Beantownbubba's inspired post about last night's Rock Show at 3DD:

Three Dimes Down • View topic - Athens January 13, 14 & 15 2011

The fourth floor of the Musee d'Orsay in Paris houses the greatest collection of impressionist art in the world. It's not even close. To my knowledge, there is no second place. I have had the good fortune and privilege to spend a fair amount of time there across a number of visits and every visit since my first has been somewhat similar:

First there is the sense of being in the presence of greatness. Of seeing things that represent the finest in the human spirit and the greatest aspects of our evolution. But after a while it's just overwhelming. The eyes, the mind just can't process any more, just doesn't compute. One monet starts to blend into another. And along w/ the highest high, that feeling of a supreme aesthetic experience , comes a kind of depression.

There is the knowledge that no matter what i do, i will never achieve a single moment of brilliance that approaches even the average of these great artists. That the very best i can do is simply ordinary. There is the certain knowledge that i will never touch people, move people, reach people in any way remotely like what these artists did routinely. I am not w/out ambition or w/out ego. Nor am i w/out talent. So this realization is, like i said, depressing, even amid the celebration, the glory, the rush of being surrounded by greatness and wondrousness.

Tonight was kind of like that. ...

Fricke's Picks: A Personal Top 10 | Rolling Stone Music | Alternate Take by David Fricke:
"The Drive-By Truckers, The Big To-Do (ATO)
When these Southern avengers ripped into 'This Fucking Job' in New York last spring, it was with the righteous incandescent anger and mutinous �lan that have made the Truckers the most dangerous cult band in America. It's time they got the breaks and lost the 'cult.'"

REEL MUSIC FESTIVAL 2011: The Secret to a Happy Ending: A Documentary About the Drive-by Truckers — Saturday | Oregon Music News:
"David Hood, the house bass player describes his crew as “just some average-looking guys doing unusual things.” And so when Hood’s son, Anderson, turned out to be “not quite like the others” he wasn’t discouraged from letting his unusual habit of writing, constantly writing songs and poems—even if it meant that very little schoolwork got done."

DBT Week in Review - 1/7/11

DBT!

Drive-By Truckers @ Brooklyn Bowl�|�TheMST.com | The Music Street Team:
"Given the desolate location, terrible sight lines, and cavernous Thunder Dome-esque space of Terminal 5, it would have been worth it to buy tickets to the New Year’s Eve show just to get tickets to the Brooklyn Bowl show, and skip the Terminal 5 show entirely. Unless you really love the Drive-By Truckers. And given the crowd reaction at Brooklyn Bowl, it didn’t seem like many of the fans planned on skipping a Drive-By Truckers show. Ever."

Top 10 Albums Of 2010, by Paul Shirley:
"I could make the case (once again, to myself, because, once again, no one else would care to hear the argument) that the Drive-By Truckers managed to write my favorite AND second-favorite songs of the year, with “Birthday Boy” and “This F*cking Job”.

But I could be talked down from that position; those two songs might only be my third-favorite and fifth-favorite of the year. However, there is one thing of which I am positive: the Truckers wrote my favorite stanza of the year. From “Birthday Boy”, which is written from the perspective of a world-weary stripper:

“Got a girlfriend, don’t you, boy,

Nervous hands can’t lie,

Married men don’t ask how much,

Single ones ain’t buying.”

Even now, after something like 1,795 listens this year, the song gives me the chills; the Drive-By Truckers’ ability to cut to the heart of the human condition is one of the great musical revelations of the 21st century.

Drive By Truckers: Incisive."
