Krautrock is an easily overlooked genre; most people will only recognize the name Kraftwerk among the artists that get grouped as Krautrock. But it is well worth exploring the surprisingly deep waters. The pulsating rhythms, the electronic experimentation, the often-strange lyrics, the crazy dynamics… The three big names in Krautrock are NEU!, Faust and Can. [...]

Brenda Garcia isn’t the only TLOS’er excited about Joshe Henry’s return to Boston. I’m also a fan, though I did not immediately “get” his unique artistic vision.

There’s a wondrous place tucked away in the foothills of Boston where dreams really can come true. It’s the town of Dedham, MA, to some, a standard strip-mall-ish suburb showcasing capitalist giants such as Costco, BJ’s and other outlets whose products require a dump truck to transport.

Did anyone see this coming? I mean, really?? Seriously, isn’t this like announcing that the first day of Summer is here? Everyone knew this was coming — so no surprise there — and it’s already happened anyway. I don’t even pay attention one iota to this crap, and I feel like I already knew this. [...]

Last weekend, Van Hammersley and I went to New York City to eat too much, drink too much, spend too much money, and look at all the beautiful people. I’m happy to report we succeeded wildly on all counts. On our first night in town we hung out in the East Village and the Lower [...]
