It's not breakfast or lunch - it's brunch!

landmark LP of unhinged psych-pop.


Also in this issue ...

Malamute Jute cover

Good Dog

Lane: GbV sideman Doug Gillard has more to bring to the table than
flashy licks and a predilection for snazzy leopard-print stage clothing.

Lola cover

Earth: Not Flat

Brandon reviews two of Indy's Flat Earth Records' latest - United States Three and Lola.
Thumbs in the middle if you average it out.

Mercury Rev cover

Towering, Timeless

Lane: Mercury Rev's latest record tears the roof off.

Tobin Sprout cover

Soft As Nails

Lane: If you dug the sumptuous popcraft of Tobin Sprout's previous records,
Wax Nails offers more of the same ilk.

Velocity Girl cover

A Forgotten Favorite

Brandon takes a look back at the discography (by no means complete) of one
of his desert-island bands, Velocity Girl.

Black Crowes cover

Caw!

Ryan Mason loves The Black Crowes. He met
The Black Crowes. He may even be a Black
Crowe. Ryan gives you the skinny on the
Crowes' latest, By Your Side.
