T-Sides’ Decade in Review: Albums

I’m not so smug as to think that I can pin-point the albums that will, in retrospect, stand out the most from the 2000s. Nor would it be accurate to argue that the albums that affected me the most on a personal level were “the best.” But if I were to completely take the personal...

Pattern Is Movement & St. Vincent @ Webster Hall, Wednesday, May 20th

Pattern Is Movement have certainly lived up to the Movement part of their name, touring relentlessly since the release of their excellent fourth album, All Together. Seeing them for the third time since October, Pattern Is Movement’s set at Webster Hall last Wednesday was yet another in a line of charged, exciting performances. The duo...

T-Sides’ 2008 in Review: Albums

Usually T-Sides is a stickler for not releasing any sort of “Best of the Year” list until the year is actually over.

T-Sides Elsewhere, July 30th Edition

Bullz-Eye: I covered as much of Siren Fest as I could. Bottles of water consumed: 6. Sunburns received: 5. Popdose: I reviewed Shine A Light, Martin Scorsese’s Rolling Stones concert documentary, the all over the place Love As Laughter album, Holy, the Notwist’s excellent Neon Golden follow-up, The Devil You + Me, Joan as Police...

T-Sides CMJ Wrap-Up: Wednesday, Nov. 1

[In relation to my CMJ coverage, allow me to pre-emptively apologize for two things: 1) my camera is not fabulous with concert photos, 2) I won’t be hosting many mp3s direct. The reason for the latter is that my current connection is rather slow, so it takes me ages to download and upload things. Since...
