Re: aotw 10/5/20: rich hopkins-godfather of desert rock
distortion, reverb and very loud. enormous sound and tone. punk riffage and power chords. slow and searing solos with bends and stretches that are unique in the world of rock. not overly tons of notes and speed…..just ginormous notes of length and sustain. soundscapes that color a picture of stifli...

Re: What's Everyone Listening to?
So I’d heard of Cracker for years in the DBT community but never really listened. A friend sent this song the other day. Patterson is playing in the video. The song would be a great homecoming sing-a-long. https://youtu.be/nA3rDnZelzo Start from the beginning and work your way through their discogr...

Re: NPR piece from Patterson
What a massive eye roll. Couldn't get through that entire piece. The only thing that hits me weird about this piece is some underlying sense that Patterson is apologizing for the name of the band. But that is not really the crux, it is a catalyst to a conversation that, it seems to me, is always go...

From north of the Border, I think I can speak as a global citizen and state my sense of frustration and resignation to the 'moderates' of the democratic party for aligning with a candidate that can barely string two sensical thoughts together.

Echoing Cortez, a perfect record really. If I could take, say, 25 albums to my desert island as opposed to the traditional 10, this would be one of them.dime in the gutter wrote:

I like Armageddon’s back in town. Seems similar to the recent Patterson tunes. But that cover..ugh. Not feeling it at all. Looks like something we all could do on our phones in a couple of minutes. But I am excited for the new album and will be ordering the presale vinyl. I miss Wes Freed too. Some...

The thing I worry about, is the songs on the new record are likely to have morphed into something different as a result of the continued playing of them live. Such that, I wonder if the recorded versions will pale in comparison to the more evolved versions we have been hearing live over the past sev...

Agree with the Westerberg solo stuff as being underwhelming - I would except Stereo/Mono and Suicaine from that generalization though - Stinson is a freaking beast - Slim's solo stuff ain't half bad either - I like your analytical and writing style brother.

Yes, in a perfect world my "In" would apply to all shows...what I should have said, was - "In...for 3 nights in Toronto...". The opportunity to break bread will no doubt present itself...
