2010 in review
I have two computers set up, but they’re both failing me, and I want to do this post while I’m semi-motivated, so while I’d like to upload a song or pic or something, text will have to do. This year saw more and more of those psychedelic, surf, lo-fi, shoegaze, etc. and so on kind of bands, like Best Coast, Deerhunter, Beach House, et al. If I was a betting woman, or someone took...

Top 15 Alabama Recording Artists According To... →
Includes the recently disbanded Dexateens, Pine Hill Haints, Dan Sartain, Thomas Function, The Secret Sisters, and more. But it forgets some other great local talent like Wizzard Sleeve, P.S.
