Under Construction until April 4th.

Lunchtime atop a Skyscraper, by Charles C. Ebbets We’re undergoing some design changes here at T-Sides while we ramp up for our relaunch. Don’t mind the mess. In the meantime, read our new Statement of Purpose, and please check back on April 4th, when our design changes will be finished, and we’ll have entirely new...
Statement Of Purpose

Statement Of Purpose

Andy Goldsworthy, Cairn Consider the following points as our Statement of Purpose. T-Sides intends to explore and examine these thoughts in particular, but most importantly, these are simply interests, not rules or restrictions. Above all, T-Sides aims to capture the real cultural experience, and in doing so, there can be no rules. Just the mind,...
State of the T-Sides Nation: 2011

State of the T-Sides Nation: 2011

I’ve struggled for about a year now over what to do with T-Sides. I started T-Sides at a time when music writing and journalism were changing. Not to say that they aren’t still changing, or aren’t always changing, but my decade or so pursuing a journalism career has been stretched across a serious shift in...

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...

T-Sides’ 2009 in Review: Albums

Hey, look at that – we’re still alive! Complete truth: I meant to post this a good week earlier, but was having server troubles. 2009 was a rough year, personally, for your poor webmistress, but it would take quite something to stop the compiling of year end lists. Though, 2009 wasn’t such a competitive year...

Happy Birthday to…Us! T-Sides is Three Years Old!

Here at T-Sides, we’re celebrating the impending arrival of Valentine’s Day by acknowledging a very important relationship. Your relationship with yourself. Not to say that all those others aren’t important, too. But as that wise old sage Charles Bukowski says, “If you have the ability to love / love yourself first.” Ok, so Bukowski wasn’t...

T-Sides Elsewhere: T-Sides Interview Featured on PerfSpot.com

When you spend your time interviewing other people, the prospect of being the one answering the questions instead of asking them can be rather exciting. So, it’s with great excitement that I share with you this link to PerfSpot.com, who recently interviewed me for a feature on T-Sides. Unfortunately there’s no direct link to the...

Recess

If things seem a little quiet here at T-Sides lately, that’s because we’re moving! Not the website, it’ll still be right here, just our base of operations. We’re cookin’ up some great features for you, though, as always, so please stay tuned. In the meantime, here’s a little something in the spirit of relocating for...

Looking Forward & Looking Back: T-Sides is Two Years Old!

Amazingly enough, we’ve reached the two-year mark here at T-Sides. I say amazingly because as any avid blog reader/writer will tell you, blogs — and music blogs in particular — tend to have a short shelf life. After many unsuccessful brainstorms and attempts, T-Sides will not, in any foreseeable future, be implementing any sort of...
