[Year list] Tijs’ Top 40 albums of 2010
December 23, 2010
A post in reaction to Erik elitist yearlist. Tijs likes year lists. Especially when they’re released way before the end of the year. Why wait ’till the end of the year to let the world know what great bands you’ve heard? Some (printed) media ask their writers to compose a list half October half November. [...]

YURI LANDMAN lecture
August 12, 2008
Guitarists like Lee Ranaldo of Sonic Youth, Aaron Hemphill of Liars, and Brian Gibson of Lightning Bolt are known for the deluges of sound that they wring from their instruments– drones, fuzz, wails, rumbles, alarms, shrieks, and sometimes even actual notes and chords. But don’t be surprised if these innovaters’ riffs become even more face-melting [...]
downloading, what to do with it?
June 16, 2008
At their blog the Kraak3 people ask what to do with illegal download sites like this one and this one where you can download free cd’s by Liars, Birchville Cat Motel, the complete works of John Zorn, Slint and many more. We think downloading sucks. So please don’t do it. It’s like heroin!

Thee Oh Sees in Area51 were supercool and fantastically amazing
May 21, 2013
It’s been five days since I saw Thee Oh Sees play in Area51, which by internet rules is waaaay too long to still write anything about it. Now, i’m making the brave choice to still write something about it. For three reasons. 1. I’ve become too much of a musicsnob (for my taste) 2. [...]
