“The Boys of Summer” by The Ataris, Saturday, August 31, 2024 (reworked repost)

Image
In the summer of 2003, a rock station in LA started playing an inside cut from  The Ataris '  So Long, Astoria ,  an album built on the late '70s and early '80s nostalgia. The band's first single, " In This Diary " reached number 11 on the Modern Rock chart. They were set to release the second single, " My Reply ," but the accidental hit " The Boys of Summer " overshadowed anything the band would produce in their twenty-five-year career. A  cover  of  Don Henley 's 1984 number 1 hit, The Ataris' punk-rock reworking took the single to number 20 on the Hot 100 and number 2 on the Modern Rock chart, unable to beat  Linkin Park 's " Faint ." Eighteen or thirty-seven summers later, "The Boys of Summer" remains a melancholy reminder that summer is over and that we all are getting older.     I SAW A BLACK FLAG STICKER ON A CADILLAC.   Written by   Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers ' guitarist,   Mike Campbell , ...

“Bad Dreams” by Deas Vail, Monday, May 8, 2023 + Deas Vail Track by Track

  No matter how your Monday finds you, let's unwind with an album that meant a lot to me nearly ten years ago, the first spring I spent in Korea. I don't remember what first attracted me to Deas Vail 's third and eponymous album, but once I started listening, I couldn't stop. I also don't know much about where the band members are now, whether or not they remain in music in any capacity. What I do know is that Deas Vail captured a moment perfectly.  1. " Desire ." That being said, Deas Vail begins with my least favorite track. It's not a bad song, and it clearly has the guitar motifs and the husband-wife duet sounds which will be important elsewhere in the album. Lyrically, "Desire" isn't very interesting and it's skip-able. But that's my opinion. "Desire," does, though have the most streams of the album. 2. " Sixteen " begins the energy that is consistent in the rest of the album. Warm guitar tones bathe the ...

“Die with a Smile” by Lady Gaga ft. Bruno Mars, Saturday, October 5, 2024

Image
At this point, we can’t really say what we can expect from Lady Gaga besides good music. Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta has given us almost every major musical genre from Dance music to Country Western. Gaga is gearing up for her seventh studio album to be released next year. The count in the singer’s discography, however, is confusing with two collaborative albums with the late crooner Tony Bennett and the soundtrack of A Star Is Born and now Joker: Folie à Deux causing an album inspired by the film Harlequin . After several years busy with acting and touring Chromatica , Lady Gaga is almost ready to unveil her latest era, which she says will be nothing like her signature dance-pop. I JUST WOKE UP FROM A DREAM. Collaboration is key for Lady Gaga. Her debut hit featured singer Colby O'Donis . The lead single from her release of The Fame , The Fame Monster , “ Telephone ” featured Beyoncé . Having collaborated with everyone from Marilyn Manson to The Rolling Stones , the...
