Cabernet Barrel-Aged Laika Stout
My lovely bride hooked me up with a few tasty beers for my birthday last week and this monster from Straight to Ale Brewing of Huntsville, Alabama was easily my fave. First of all, who knew they were brewing such delicious beers in Alabama? I thought Alabama was country music, coon huntin’ and Natty Light. […]
Die Antwoord – Enter The Ninja
A little over a year ago, I was building a playlist in Spotify for all of the acts playing at the VOODOO Festival in New Orleans, LA and coming to terms with the idea that I had no idea who some of the electronic/rave artists were. I figured I’d go down that rabbit hole for […]
Russian Circles – Geneva
Words? These guys are too bad ass to deal with words. It’s not every day that I find an all instrumental rock band that I like, much less one that rips grooves like this band does. I got turned on to this three piece from Chicago by my wife (yes…she rocks…harder than you) and […]
Rage in 1992
http://youtu.be/49WwUgdU6yE “Yeah, the movement’s in motion with mass militant poetry….Now check this out” Being a huge fan of Rage for a long time, I was stoked to find this killer vid of the band performing live in Zed Records in L.A. a year or so before they “made it.” I love this kinda stuff. The […]
Coors
Coors? Mr. Beer Snob is touting a regular beer from a major American brewer and not some heavy, full flavored ale from a smaller independent brewery? It’s probably just a trolling thing and he’s only doing it for the big “F-you-Turnaround” and the end.
The Dear Hunter – This Body
I was going through my “starred” playlist on Spotify and remembered how much I dug the track This Body from The Dear Hunter. It was such a great song I decided to look into The Dear Hunter a bit a post the track on the site. I had listened to a few tracks from The […]
Jimi Jamison – Love Is Alive
Was driving home and although I very rarely listen to the radio, I figured I’d give it a spin. This track started the instant I turned it up. I haven’t heard this tune in ages. Always thought it was a soulful groove monster. But something was different. This one seemed a little more rocking than […]
Claymore Scotch Ale
This tasty ale pours a beautiful dark copper color and due to the moderate carbonation, only leaves a short head with very little lacing around the glass. I get light smells of caramel, a bready yeast and maybe a touch of coffee or roasted smoky malts.
Kelly Holland – R.I.P.
I bought the Cry of Love album “Brother” on cassette back in 1994 and friggin loved it. I thought it was such a soulful southern jam that I played it so often that it wore all the letters off the tape. I also got to see them at a shitty bar outside of Atlanta and […]
Postmodern Jukebox ft. Miche Braden
Believe it or not, this is the track that gave me the idea that Frank & I should start putting all of the stuff we share on a site. For sure our tastes lean towards the heavy stuff and rock will probably be the primary staple, but good stuff is good stuff. This cover of […]
