That juicy polished power pop that I first heard on the last IPO compilation was Brown Line Fiasco and the group returns with a very catchy album called "Superstar." Few would argue that the opener "Lovely Day" hasn&039;t got a touch of Pearl Jam with power chords and a dominant bass line. The title track has melody and beat that compare with Ok Go and The Posies and will drive you to start air guitar theatrics right.http://elbo.ws/post/1226091/brown-line-fiasco-quotsuperstarquot/ Keepin' It (Power) Poppin'- August 29, 2008 by DETOUR Before &8220;Power Pop Day&8221; is officially over, we thought it might be cool to point you in the direction of some new kids on the block, who not only swipe moves and give nods to the power pop greats of yesteryear, but are also paving the road to the genre&8217;s bright future. Also, we know that p-pop kind of gets a bad rap, mostly for being a little bit lame, and a lot bit cheesy. What we tried to bring you here are people doing something a little different with the formula...http://elbo.ws/post/1224658/keepin-it-power-poppin/ The Posies: Phoenix Rising- August 29, 2008 by DETOUR http:www.youtube.comwatchv=eTIkIvFrn98 The Posies, &8220;Solar Sister&8221; (Live Phoenix Festival, 1994) We&8217;re not sure, but this might have been as big as power pop ever got (besides, maybe, those dudes from Fountains of Wayne writing &8220;That Thing You Do&8221;). This clip &8212; from a 1994 performance at something called The Phoenix Festival, not in Arizona, mind you, but in the UK &8212; shows bubble-grunge workhorses the Posies totally ripping one out in front of.http://elbo.ws/post/1224501/the-posies-phoenix-rising/ Opentape: 17 Covers of Oasis' 'Wonderwall'- August 29, 2008 by Listening Post - Wired Blogs Remember when Jay-Z covered the Oasis song "Wonderwall" at Glastonbury as a means of retaliationtribute after Noel Gallagher made statements in the press to the effect that a hip hop act should not headline the rock-oriented Glastonbury The controversy resulted in an entire mash-up album combining Jay-Z&039;s rapping with Oasis songs. As it turns out, many others have chiseled their names onto Oasis&039;s "Wonderwall."

Ahora, los músicos de dicha formación se unen al prolífico miembro de los miticos Posies, y bajo el nombre de The Disciplines facturan uno de los discos del año, un sensacional coctel de energía guitarrera y melodías memorables. ---English--- Briskebi were a succesfull Norwegian...http://elbo.ws/post/1219206/the-disciplines/ Nineties Soundtrack Flashback Part One- August 26, 2008 by Tom Perry I was watching a zombie film last night, the remake of Dawn of the Dead, I think. Zombie films have blurred for me, to be frank. Not that I don&039;t love them, it&039;s just they shamble towards you en masse, and they all have zombie in the title. Their name is, literally, legion. Anyways, the song rolling over the credits was People who died by The Jim Carroll Band. It&039;s a fine slice of punk, written by a neo-beat junkie poet survivor, which showed up originally on the film..http://elbo.ws/post/1218408/nineties-soundtrack-flashback-part-one/ Cahl's Jukebox, 8-26-08- August 26, 2008 by Cahl&039;s Juke Joint: A rock, blues and jazz blogThe daily mix:1) Matthew Sweet: "Superdeformed"2) The Posies: "Dream All Day"3) The Vulgar Boatmen: "Change the World All Around"4) The Foxymorons: "The Lazy Librarian&039;s Son"5) Velo-Deluxe: "Simple"6) R.E.M.: "Man-sized Wreath"7) Paul Westerberg: "Seein&039; Her"8) Roger McGuinn:"King of the Hill"9) XTC: "Making Plans for Nigel"10) Blondie: "One.http://elbo.ws/post/1217903/cahls-jukebox-8-26-08/ What Choo Talkin' 'Bout Mr. Drummond Lyrical Inaccuracies- August 25, 2008 by Rock Town HallAs the parent of a newborn child, I&039;ve been singing a lot of songs to the little bub. During diaper changes, I am fond of "I&039;ve been workin&039; on the railroad," mostly because it&039;s long enough to last for the whole process. Except one thing bother me about the song: Nobody works on the railroad "just to pass the time away." Seems to me that people worked on the railroad for a number of mostly miserable reasons.

Onder de naam Mark Pickerel and His Praying Hands heeft hij een tweede album uitgebracht: Cody&039;s Dream. Het eerste verscheen in 2006. Net als toen werkte Pickerel samen met producer Steve Fisk (Screaming Trees, Nirvana, Posies, Soundgarden). Countryrock, americana, geef het een naam.
