1,2,3,4 get that booty on the floor... got something brand new for that..

Ok... didn't mean to go all Coolio on you for a second but I was having an early 90s flashback.

I naturally planned on posting this yesterday, but would you believe I had trouble logging on to my blog? Ok. Lie. I had The Click Five in the studio and things got a bit hectic. It threw my day completely off, so here we go! One day late... but here we go:

CD Releases

• Ingram Hill-Cold In California **Sam's Pick**

These guys have a very special place in my heart because my first trip to Denver (to interview at Alice!!) included a show at the Soiled Dove when it was at 20th at Market. They played with Better Than Ezra. Absolutely charming guys! Cold in California is the followup to their major label debut June's Picture Show (2004). Check 'em out.

• KMFDM-Tohuvabohu

Fans of KMFDM know they have definitely honed their sound and kept it so consistent! For a group that has been doing its thing for nearly 25 years, they have not lost one bit of the energy that their core followers so adore. Meaning, this can be described in no other way than another KMFDM album. You liked the last one and the one before and the one before... etc.... you'll like this, too.

• Rilo Kiley- Under The Blacklight

Even though Jenny Lewis (lead singer) went on a solo mission a couple years back, Rilo Kiley wasn't gone and here to prove it? A new album! While Rilo has never been a big seller with their discs, they are respected amongst their peers and critically acclaimed so worth a listen or three? I definitely think so.

• Josh Ritter- The Historical Conquests of Josh Ritter (With Bonus EP) ***Sam's Pick***

You know when people say that an artist/musician is underrated? That does not even begin to describe Josh properly. He is incredible and this album is freakin' fanstastic. GET IT.

• Ratt-Tell The World The Very Best of Ratt

Ahem... the best of Ratt. Remastered. Rock-n-roll baby... you know you want it.

• Nikki Six- The Heroin Diaries (Soundtrack)

This is a precursor to the book coming out next month. This is so personal and so emotional any fan of Nikki will not be able to resist this.

• Blades of Glory (Soundtrack)

• Halloween (Soundtrack)

I'm particularly excited about this soundtrack because I'm a HUGE fan of horror movies and though I tend to be very critical of remakes, if you're gonna have a remake, who better than Rob Zombie to give an alternate interpretation? This soundtrack is loaded with 70s rock and snippets from the new flick.


Thanks for reading.. again, sorry a day late.

xoxox,
