Heralded as 'the last remaining true New York hardcore outfit' by Spin, New York's proudest sons Sick of It All always have and always will be the real deal. After releasing a string of important hardcore records including 1989's Blood, Sweat, No Tears as well as 1992's classic Just Look Around, SOIA decided to take the major-label plunge by signing with EastWest Records. Leaving the act to its own devices, the label wisely chose to let the band self-produce Scratch the Surface (its fourth effort). Unleashed at the height of Green Day/Offspring mania, the album was destined for major attention, but, alas, it never came. Featuring a classic New York hardcore sound (and one that is admittedly not for the masses), the album features 14 tracks including the hyper-speedy 'Insurrection,' live favorite 'No Cure,' and 'Desperate Fool.' The real surprise, however, comes in the shape of two incredible band anthems. For one, there's the transcendent 'Scratch the Surface' (which featured a great, live-action video later carbon copied by Papa Roach on 'Last Resort'). Secondly, there's the monstrous singalong (not mention big Beavis and Butthead re-current) 'Step Down.' With 'Step Down,' the label tried to position SOIA as its 'next big punk band.' Unfortunately, EastWest met with resistance from radio programmers who were all too busy looking for the next Green Day. When all was said and done, as was the case with the Melvins, Scratch the Surface sold about as well the band's other independent efforts (even though it benefited from two videos and some decent label commitment). ~ John Franck

Tracy + the Plastics' Culture for Pigeon is both more and less than Muscler's Guide to Videonics, the debut of Wynne Greenwood's self-reflexive synth-punk/performance art project. At just under 26 minutes, Greenwood's second album might have less actual music on it than her first, but Culture for Pigeon covers more sonic territory despite its relatively short running time. From the opening track, the slow-building, yearning 'Big Stereo,' to the joyous, anthemic 'What You Still Want,' the album marks a departure from the nonstop intensity of Muscler's Guide to Home Video. Even the more fiery songs, such as 'Knit a Claw' and 'This Is Dog-City,' are more restrained and inviting-sounding, on first listen anyway, than most of Tracy + the Plastics' debut. That doesn't mean that Greenwood has lost her edge, though: 'Quaasars' is nearly as noisy as her earlier work, 'Henrietta' has keening vocals aplenty, and 'Save Me Claude' boasts such sharply drawn lyrics as 'Women of Los Angeles/You can't clean it up until you make a mess.' But the quieter moments on Culture for Pigeon often end up being the most arresting: the brief but lovely 'Cut Glass See Thru' has more in common with Mirah's music than the work of Le Tigre or Erase Errata, and 'Happens' is an odd but successful cross-pollination of singer/songwriter confessions and electronic atmospheres. The quieter approach of this track and 'Oh Birds' gives Culture for Pigeon a more thoughtful cast that acknowledges Tracy + the Plastics' conceptual nature (in concert, Greenwood performs live as singer Tracy, in front of videotaped versions of herself playing the Plastics: keyboardist Nikki and drummer Cola). The album also attempts to address the fact that listening to a Tracy + the Plastics album isn't as rich an experience as attending one of Greenwood's multimedia-driven concerts by including a DVD with two of her video pieces. Indeed, given the project's high-concept origins, in some ways the DVD is the main attraction of the set. In Culture for Pigeon's semiotics-heavy liner notes, Greenwood describes the videos as 'some spaces for you to imagine in,' and while they don't quite replace a Tracy + the Plastics concert, they do provide some brain-tickling amusement. The first piece, 'We Hear Swooping Guitars,' joins Tracy, Nikki, and Cola during one of their practices. Tracy tries to cooperate and mediate with Cola, who looks completely bored as she mimes drumbeats with her mouth and hands, and with Nikki, who complains about how the name Tracy + the Plastics maintains the 'historical hierarchy of a rock band' and contemplates 'the lesbian creature as constantly disappearing and/or always being something as a remembered past.' A fly squished against the wall morphs into an elephant and quickly turns into the elephant in the room that nobody wants to talk about, while snippets of 'This Is Dog-City' and 'Knit a Claw' are woven into the film with more abstract imagery. The second piece, 'Just the Beginning of Something,' is even more impressionistic, mixing footage of digging for and painting with mushrooms, beer bottles used as metronomes, hair that becomes fields of wheat, and swimming in a living room that becomes a pool. The sidelong storytelling in Greenwood's videos definitely heighten the impact of her music, but fortunately, it isn't necessary to see the films to appreciate Tracy + the Plastics' music on its own terms. Culture for Pigeon offers the most complete, and complex, version of Green...

The Bongos were one of the most distinctive bands to come out of the briefly bustling Hoboken pop scene in the early '80s -- Richard Barone's songs were gloriously hooky, but also forcefully propulsive enough to live up to the group's name (aided immeasurably by Rob Norris' agile bass and Frank Giannini's precise drumming), and Barone's guitar work managed to be melodic and oblique at the same time, carrying the tune while allowing room for his own sonic interjections, which could be noisy or richly smooth at will. The Bongos were different enough from their contemporaries that Drums Along the Hudson has dated remarkable little since it was released in 1982, sounding less like 'new wave' than a simply timeless example of smart, edgy pop. The joyous charge of the opening cut, 'In the Congo,' is pure glorious sugar rush, 'The Bulrushes' is fraught with seductive mystery, 'Three Wise Men' very nearly beats the Feelies at their own high-tension game, and 'Glow in the Dark' is one of the most charmingly off-kilter love songs ever. (Norris' anti-television diatribe 'Video Eyes' fares somewhat less well than the other tunes, but there's no arguing it's still timely.) Add in a T. Rex cover that's sensuous and almost funky and you get a minor masterpiece from the era of the skinny tie that's still bracing stuff today. ~ Mark Deming

Het nieuwe album van Guus Meeuwis heet: NW8. De titel verwijst naar de postcode van het district St John's Wood in Londen, waar de Abbey Road Studio's zijn gevestigd. Voor het eerst in zijn bijna 15-jarige carrière week de zanger uit naar het buitenland om een nieuwe plaat op te nemen. Hij ging niet alleen, want NW 8 is live recorded en ingespeeld door zijn eigen band. Daarnaast legde een cameraploeg het complete opname proces vast om daar een documentaire van te maken. Een bijzondere ervaring.

Meeuwis: 'Ik wilde mijn nieuwe plaat live opnemen omdat de liedjes dan veel meer impact hebben. Het klinkt echter. Ik speel nu al zo lang samen met deze band dat we er ook klaar voor waren. Dat wil trouwens niet zeggen dat we het even uit de mouw hebben geschud: het was wel een hele uitdaging. We hebben eerst 4 weken in Nederland met het nieuwe materiaal gerepeteerd, toen een soort proef recording gedaan in een Nederlandse studio en vervolgens zijn we naar Abbey Road afgereisd. Met 11 man band live nieuw materiaal opnemen vergt heel veel concentratie, geduld en inzet. Maar die oude Beatles studio geeft zo veel inspiratie en energie. Ik zong bijvoorbeeld door een microfoon uit 1953 waarvan de technicus zei: 'you can smell the spit of John Lennon'. Daarnaast is het ook gewoon een geweldige studio met een ontzettend goed geluid.'

De liedjes op NW8 schreef Meeuwis voor het grootste deel samen met Jan Willem Rozenboom en JW Roy. 'Het ging allemaal zo snel, in twee sessies hadden we al drie kwart van de liedjes. Dat is een fijn gevoel en het gaf ons ook de rust en de tijd om verder te gaan met materiaal waar we al heel lang iets mee wilden doen, maar waar we nooit eerder aan toe kwamen', aldus Guus.

Laat Mij In Die Waan, met een voor Guus' doen maatschappelijk bewuste tekst, is een van die nummers. 'We hadden die al verzonnen tijdens het schrijven voor Hemel Nr 7. De melodie bleef liggen en dit keer hebben we er een nieuwe tekst op gemaakt. Met een inhoud die wij ook nooit eerder aangeraakt hebben. Het gaat in mijn liedjes meestal over het kleine en persoonlijke en dat blijft ook het belangrijkst, maar dat wil niet zeggen dat ik nooit om me heen kijk'.

Over de 1e single: dat Komt door Jou:

'Dat Komt Door Jou en is van oorsprong Italiaans wat duidelijk terug te horen is in het snelle tekstritme van de coupletten. 'Ik was afgelopen zomer op vakantie in Italië en hoorde daar constant een nummer van Jovanotti op de radio. Ook toen ik weer thuis was, bleef het in mijn hoofd rondzingen. Leo Driessen is toen met de tekst aan de slag gegaan en het resultaat is 'Dat Komt Door Jou'. Omdat je de melodie ergens anders vandaan haalt, klinkt het net iets anders, maar door de tekst is het toch heel erg Guus.'

De video is samengesteld uit opnames die zijn gemaakt bij de opname van het album. Je ziet als het ware hoe het nummer tot stand komt.

This is singer/songwriter Nanci Griffith's first live album, and it captures the essence of what has endeared Griffith to fans of both folk and cosmopolitan country. Although One Fair Summer Evening was not an immediate phenomenon at the cash registers, the revealing nature of the performance has secured it a place in the hearts of enthusiasts since its release in 1988. In addition to highlights from her six previous long-players, she also adds a few new tracks -- including her own composition 'I Would Bring You Ireland' as well as 'Deadwood, South Dakota' by her ex-husband, Eric Taylor -- both of which became standards in her live performance canon. Her backing band, the Blue Moon Orchestra, is known for both its instrumental prowess and its keen knack for subtlety. Examples of this delicate balance range from the intimacy of 'More Than a Whisper' and 'Love at the Five and Dime' to the boot-scootin' fury of 'Spin on a Red Brick Floor' and 'Looking for the Time (Workin' Girl).' In between is a sampling of Griffith's organic folky roots ('Trouble in the Fields') as well as her pensive ballads ('Once in a Blue Moon'), which have become standards for the legions of would-be singer/songwriters who followed. Also included are stunning readings of Julie Gold's 'From a Distance' and Bill Staines' (whom Griffith rightfully compares to a neo-Woody Guthrie) 'Roseville Fair.' There is also a 45-minute home video companion to One Fair Summer Evening that includes most of the music from this CD: missing are 'The Wing and the Wheel,' 'Trouble in the Fields,' and 'Roseville Fair,' while a whimsical version of 'There's a Light Beyond the Woods (Mary Margaret)' has been added. ~ Lindsay Planer

Joni Mitchell's influence on other female singer/songwriters of the late 1960s and early '70s was so pervasive that one almost dreads bringing up comparisons to her in yet another review of an obscure record of the period for fear of falling into cliché. The fact remains, however, that it's unavoidable when describing Caroline Peyton's 1971 debut LP. Some of the traits of Mitchell's early work are also found here: the winding, swooping vocals that sometimes build up to a trill, the jazzy phrasing, and the rather solemn tone of many of the lyrics. There are differences, too, though not ones that will excite many listeners into replacing Mitchell with Peyton in their home rotation. The plainness of the production and basic arrangements are threadbare when stacked up against even Mitchell's earliest albums, though they likewise emphasize vocals, acoustic guitar, and piano. The material -- mostly by producer Mark Bingham -- lacks the depth and distinction of Mitchell or the better singer/songwriters. In addition, several tracks unpredictably leap into avant-garde territory, with most un-Mitchell-like operatic screeching and free-form structures incorporating jazz and art song. (Even the liner notes to the CD reissue describe her vocals on 'Bill Monroe' as 'Peyton's best impression of a donkey in ill health.') The presence of a male vocalist singing along with Peyton on a couple of slightly bluesy pieces also makes this stand out -- Mitchell, after all, never sang with a guy on her early records -- as does, on 'Gone for a Day,' the lyric 'creamed in my jeans,' which no one sang in the early '70s if they hoped for radio play. Though the odder tracks are more original, they're also less pleasing to ear than the more conventional and derivative ones. That puts Mock Up in the odd position of a record that might be both too strange and too imitative for fans of singer/songwriters like Mitchell, and not unusual enough overall to gain a strong cult following. [The 2008 CD reissue added extensive historical lines: omitted a track, 'Lor el iii,' on which the vocal was taken by Mark Bingham (who wrote most of the songs): added a 1972 live recording, 'Breathe,' which strikes a reasonably accessible midpoint between folk and avant-jazz: and adds three songs from her 1973 album In the Eye that, while similar to her debut, are somewhat less Mitchell-indebted and jazzier, the highlight 'White Teeth' adding some Indian flavor. It also has a color video, in reasonable though slightly lo-fi, of Peyton performing two songs not on the CD live on acoustic guitar in 1972 at the Hummingbird Cafe in Bloomington, Indiana. ~ Richie Unterberger

There are few rock artists of any genuine significance whose catalogs are more of a mess than Johnny Thunders, and we pretty much have the artist himself to blame for that. While Thunders helped create two stone classic albums with the New York Dolls, once he struck out on his own, his seemed more interested in going for the fast buck than building a career (doubtless a product of his decades-long junk habit), and when you get past the Heartbreakers' L.A.M.F. and Thunders' So Alone, most of the recordings with his name attached to them are ragged throwaways or semi-bootleg live discs without much to recommend them. While Down to Kill is hardly the great missing testament to Thunders' gifts, at least it collects some worthwhile material with a genuine degree of care, and that makes it worthy of attention. Disc one pulls together some rare demo material, starting out with eight cuts recorded in 1976 that would later make up the bulk of L.A.M.F. (and the bulk of the Heartbreakers' standard repertoire), and if these aren't the definitive versions of 'Born to Lose,' 'Can't Keep My Eyes on You,' or 'I Wanna Be Loved' (the latter without vocals), these rough but efficient recordings get to the heart of these songs better than the sloppily produced takes on L.A.M.F., and without the affected slop marring most of the many substandard live takes that circulate of this material. The rest of the studio stuff (including three Walter Lure-fronted numbers that don't feature Thunders at all) is OK but not great, though it's worth noting that 'Too Much Junkie Business' fares better without lead addict Thunders than with his contribution. Disc two features 15 songs from the two sets the Heartbreakers recorded in London on March 1977 for the album D.T.K. Live at the Speakeasy, newly remixed for this release and sounding cleaner and more detailed than before. The band is fine when it settles into a good and dirty groove, but while Thunders frequently berates the audience for not being enthusiastic enough in the first set, given how sloppy the band sounds much of the time, it's hard to blame the kids for not being knocked out. Still, this is one of the best sounding Heartbreakers live recordings extant, and by the standards of this band, they're documented in tough, rough 'n' ready form. The set also includes a bonus DVD including video footage from two 1984 London gigs, four studio-shot solo acoustic performances, a clip of Thunders cursing his audience on Swedish television, and excerpts from Johnny's performance in the French film Mona et Moi. If you're not already a Johnny Thunders fan, this set isn't likely to convert you, but considering how many shoddy and depressing Thunders packages there are on the market, it's high praise to say that this is not one of them. ~ Mark Deming

'Live At The Budokan' was recorded during Ozzy Osbourne's tour of the Far East in February 2002. Features live tracks from his solo albums, as well as three previously unreleased studio tracks, including 'Black Skies' from Ozzy's own video game. This CD coincides with the DVD release of the same concert.

This CD, which appears to have been derived from the same source as a notoriously bad concert video, represents the last performance on the final tour ever done by Rod Stewart and the Faces. In that regard, the focus is far more on Stewart than the band, certainly in terms of repertory -- they could all obviously see the handwriting on the wall, and hear the roaring of the crowds for the singer -- and the sound is not much better than fair to good. (It appears that recording the Faces in concert was a challenge that the industry and the technology were not quite up to -- no high quality documents of the group's sound have surfaced to date). The bass, and even more so the keyboards are buried fairly deeply in the mix, whereas the guitars -- which include a contribution from guest artist Keith Richards -- are way forward, and give Stewart his only real competition in center stage. That said, and aside from the shortcomings (which include a momentary jump or skip in the audio on 'It's All Over Now'), the excitement of this band does come through: and Stewart does regale us with his best soul stylings of the period, if not his best work in that vein. The last night of a tour was not the point at which to capture him doing Sam Cooke's material, and the singalong on 'You Send Me' may have worked better visually, or as a live moment, than as an event on a live album. Much more successful because it required little finesse is the version of 'Sweet Little Rock 'n' Roller' that comes in already in progress, showing off what this band could do even in its declining moments. Perhaps someday a better overall quality concert will be released -- and there have been worse live recordings of the Faces issued by their actual contracted label -- but this CD provides at least a glimpse of what some of the excitement in this band, and its lingering reputation across nearly 40 years, is about. Just don't expect any revelations. ~ Bruce Eder

While the music industry struggled throughout 2007 and 2008, Paramore bucked expectations by sending four singles to the Hot Modern Rock charts and shipping over one million copies of Riot!. Newcomers like Katy Perry also dominated the radio, but Paramore was one of the only rock bands to emerge from the woodwork, going platinum during a time in which most artists were happy to go gold. The band also toured extensively, and The Final Riot! -- a slick, attractive live album that features video and audio footage -- captures one of Paramore's final performances in support of that album. Given Hayley Williams' voice and Zac Farro's powerful, muscled percussion, Paramore has always been a better live band than the bulk of its competitors, and The Final Riot! is stronger than similar releases by Fall Out Boy (Live in Phoenix) and Taking Back Sunday (Louder Now: Part Two). That's not to say it's a perfect recording: the crowd noise is mixed much too low, which is problematic whenever Williams thrusts the microphone at the audience and invites them to sing along, and her occasional flat notes point to a lack of overdubs. That only serves to make The Final Riot! more genuine and Williams more human, though, and the tight set list (featuring the bulk of Paramore's catalog, as well as a snippet of Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah') showcases both the band's prowess and the singer's road-seasoned voice. She's fantastic throughout, from her candid comments in the enclosed tour documentary (30 minutes long and well worth the view) to her performance on-stage, where she howls with finesse and pint-sized power. Few vocalists can rival that talent, and watching Williams lay waste to the crowd is one of The Final Riot!'s many highlights. ~ Andrew Leahey

Signals, Calls and Marches and Vs. proved that Mission of Burma were one of the best American bands to emerge in the wake of punk's first wave (and before the rise of indie rock), and no one who saw them live seems willing to dispute that they were a powerhouse on-stage. So no one could fault Mission of Burma for commemorating their final tour in 1983 with a live album, but the truth about The Horrible Truth About Burma is it simply isn't as strong as the studio recordings that preceded it: the performances are often superb, but the material on their final gesture lets them down. Mission of Burma chose to fill The Horrible Truth with songs that hadn't previously appeared on an album, which was a fine idea on paper, since the band wanted to preserve tunes that might otherwise be lost to the ages. But while there's isn't a bad song to be found, the best original tunes are the ones that had already earned radio exposure in Boston as demos (in particular 'Peking Spring' and 'Dirt'), and while 'Tremelo' and 'Blackboard' were doubtless compelling performance pieces, as songs they don't scale the same heights as 'That's When I Reach for My Revolver,' 'Einstein's Day' or 'Fun World.' (However, one wonders if Steve Albini was in attendance at the Chicago show where 'Dumbells' was recorded, given its resemblance to his signature guitar style.) It seems significant that two of the strongest cuts are covers: a ferocious run-through of the Stooges' '1970,' and a nearly nine-minute journey through 'Heart of Darkness' by Pere Ubu. And while Mission of Burma are in strong, hard-hitting form throughout, they lack a bit of the fierce precision that made Vs. so memorable. The Horrible Truth About Burma is a fine souvenir for fans but not much of an intro for beginners: the home video release Live at the Bradford, shot at the band's final concert, does a superior job of capturing what made this group so compelling. ~ Mark Deming

On their tour promoting Daylight Again, Crosby, Stills & Nash played three nights at the Universal Amphitheater in Los Angeles over the Thanksgiving Day weekend in 1982, and they taped and filmed the shows for a TV special. The Dutch Immortal label has licensed the audio tracks for this 21-song, 105-minute, two-CD set, and it chronicles a high point in the band's career. (Immortal also has a DVD version of Live in L.A., which is essentially a reissue of the 1983 MCA home video called Daylight Again.) At the outset, a professional-sounding announcer talks over the instrumental opening of 'Turn Your Back on Love,' stopping the split second the vocal begins, just like a disc jockey. But that is the only incursion into the show, which otherwise draws from CSN's back catalog of hits and favorites in a familiar format, starting with an electric set that gives way to an extended acoustic segment that further breaks down into solo spots, and then revving back up for an electric finish before sending the crowd out with a singalong of 'Teach Your Children' and the folk blues 'Daylight Again' as a coda. After months on tour, the singers' voices are a bit the worse for wear, or maybe it's just that one is accustomed to the polish of the studio recordings. It doesn't hurt the performances, which actually sound all the more fervent for the occasional vocal grit. Along with the CSN hits, there are occasional borrowings from the individuals' repertoire (Crosby & Nash's 'Wind on the Water' suite, Stills' 'For What It's Worth' from his Buffalo Springfield days, a CSN arrangement of the Beatles' 'Blackbird'), but most of the show is given over to evergreens and then recent radio hits from Daylight Again, notably 'Southern Cross,' which was peaking in the Top 20 at the time of the concert. Live in L.A. captures a resurgent Crosby, Stills & Nash before their hometown crowd. Clouds may have been gathering on the horizon, with Crosby's substance abuse problems threatening the band's future, but at these shows all seemed well. ~ William Ruhlmann

Sons Find Devils is the soundtrack to the video of the same name that captured the Virgin Prunes live in 1986 -- at their popular and creative peak. They'd already issued the entire New Form of Beauty catalog of releases -- which included a single, a 10', a 12', and a cassette tape among them. The band had just released The Moon Looked Down and Laughed, their most controversial album among fans -- many felt it was far too tame and sophisticated. And it was, as Gavin Friday was already contemplating his career as a solo performer. Along with tracks promoting the new album were 'classics' such as 'Pagan Love Song,' 'Ulakanakulot,' the infamous 'Come to Daddy,' 'Down the Memory Lane,' 'Decline and Fall,' and 'Walls of Jericho.' In listening to this music in the 21st century, one can see where the entire Sex Gang Children/Cult brand of tribal post-punk came from, and in some songs, such as 'Come to Daddy,' the sound of U2 as well. (Although trademarked, that sound wasn't exactly original: U2 and the Prunes were mates and hung out in the same Lypton Village collective, and Dik Evans is the Edge's brother.) The sound here is spotty, but the energy isn't. It's primal, freaky, and wonderful. The CD comes enhanced with the live 'Pagan Love Song' video included as a bonus. ~ Thom Jurek

It would be nice to have some more documentation attached to this compilation. But it can be ascertained that at the very least, most of the cuts are from 1983-1985, that four of the 13 songs are taken from 7' releases, and that two of them were recorded live in 1983. Specimen have been lumped in with the 1980s goth rock movement, which the packaging of this anthology does nothing to dispel, since it's part of Anagram's goth collectors' series, and since the band could hardly look more the part on the sleeve photos. Actually, though, they were more upbeat and tuneful than most of the so-called goth bands, if not exactly upbeat and tuneful per se. It's middle-of-the-pack early post-punk, with lumpy beats, hovering synthesizers, grandson-of-Bowie doom-anticipatory vocals, and more sense of sonic dynamics than most goth acts. On 'Syria,' there are actually riffs and singable vocal lines that might have given it a chance on pop radio. The fidelity on the two live cuts isn't that good. Incidentally, this release is an enhanced CD with a video of the group doing 'Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.' ~ Richie Unterberger

Having acknowledged a certain creative desperation on The Pretender, Jackson Browne lowered his sights (and raised his commercial appeal) considerably with Running on Empty, which was more a concept album about the road than an actual live album, even though its songs were sometimes recorded on-stage (and sometimes on the bus or in the hotel). Unlike most live albums, though, it consisted of previously unrecorded songs. Browne had less creative participation on this album than on any he ever made, solely composing only two songs, co-writing four others, and covering another four. And he had less to say -- the title song and leadoff track neatly conjoined his artistic and escapist themes. Figuratively and creatively, he was out of gas, but like 'the pretender,' he still had to make a living. The songs covered all aspects of touring, from Danny O'Keefe's 'The Road,' which detailed romantic encounters, and 'Rosie' (co-written by Browne and his manager Donald Miller), in which a soundman pays tribute to auto-eroticism, to, well, 'Cocaine,' to the travails of being a roadie ('The Load-Out'). Audience noises, humorous asides, loose playing -- they were all part of a rough-around-the-edges musical evocation of the rock & roll touring life. It was not what fans had come to expect from Browne, of course, but the disaffected were more than outnumbered by the newly converted. (It didn't hurt that 'Running on Empty' and 'The Load-Out'/'Stay' both became Top 40 hits.) As a result, Browne's least ambitious, but perhaps most accessible, album ironically became his biggest seller. But it is not characteristic of his other work: for many, it will be the only Browne album they will want to own, just as others always will regard it disdainfully as 'Jackson Browne lite.' [The 2005 expanded reissue of Running on Empty is a double-disc set, containing a remastered CD of the album on the first disc and a DVD of the album on the second. The DVD contains a 5.1 mix of the album plus two bonus tracks that only appear on the DVD -- a second take on 'Cocaine' called 'Cocaine Again' and an instrumental, 'Edwardsville Room 124.' There are also two video montages and an extensive photo gallery, along with lyrics.] ~ William Ruhlmann

Re-released to coincide with the re-release of re-mastered versions of their first three studio albums, 'Under A Blood Red Sky' is the most successful live album in UK chart history. This glimpse into the early stages of U2's career reveals a band on the brink of international superstardom, with tracks taken from several shows throughout their 1983 'War' tour. The highlight of the album is a powerful performance of 'Sunday Bloody Sunday', the live video of which was effectively responsible for breaking the band in the US.

As a band Asia were able to do what few from the prog rock era were able to do: combine streamlined pop hooks into very sophisticated songs that included varying instrumental passages where individual members could stretch a bit. Their chart success -- especially early on -- was formidable. Fantasia: Live in Tokyo is an anniversary concert performed with all the original members: Geoff Downes, Carl Palmer, Steve Howe and John Wetton. Eagle Rock has issued the entire concert, on both on a double-CD as well as DVD. There are 18 cuts here, including the hits as well as tracks by the members' other bands such as 'Roundabout' by Yes (that contains guitarist Howe) Downes' 'Video Killed the Radio Star' from his stint with the Buggles, and Aaron Copland's 'Fanfare for the Common Man,' (which was recorded by Emerson, Lake & Palmer). The bookends for this rather indulgent but exciting live show are 'Time Again,' and, of course, 'Heat of the Moment,' a live version that 25 years later seems to top the original! For Asia fans, this is a rather indispensable document. ~ Thom Jurek

The culmination of a project eight years in the making, Les Savy Fav's Inches gathers nine singles -- 18 tracks in all -- that the band began recording in 1996 and then released through nine different labels (including Sub Pop, Monitor, and Suicide Squeeze). Inches presents these singles in reverse chronological order, a clever and somewhat daring move: as the album plays, the band's sound unravels from the sleek, danceable art-punk of songs like 'Meet Me in the Dollar Bin' to the rougher sounds of 'Bringing Us Down' and 'Reprobates Resume.' But while 'Hold Onto Your Genre' and 'Hello Halo, Goodbye Glands' are more refined than what follows them on Inches, that doesn't mean that the earliest songs on the collection are rudimentary. 'Rodeo' and the epic 'Our Coastal Hymn' display the taut rhythms, sharp guitars, and equally sharp lyrics that are the foundation of Les Savy Fav's sound: in fact, the band has been riffing on this angular, danceable, post-punk-influenced sound for so long that it's a wonder it's taken so long for so many other bands to catch up with them. Meanwhile, 'Reformat [Dramatic Reading],' a short play about a doomed submarine and the men on board, and the subsequent live performance of 'Reformat' exemplify the artiness that is reflected in every aspect of the band. Interestingly, more than half of Inches was recorded in 2003 and 2002, making the first half of the album more of a piece than its second half. Indeed, songs like 'We'll Make a Lover Out of You,' 'Knowing How the World Works,' and 'The Sweat Descends' have a nearly perfect blend of angularity and accessibility, and help make Inches just as consistent, if not more so, than the band's proper releases. Inches is an ambitious concept, but the band's success with it is another example of Les Savy Fav's mix of intellect and volatility. The first pressing of Inches also comes with a DVD that includes features that range from nice but not essential (30 photos of the band, a DVD audio version of the album) to more interesting bonuses like track-by-track commentary by the band and their friends and accomplices (including producer Chris Zane and Chunklet magazine publisher Henry H. Owings as well as multi-talented performers David Cross and Fred Armisen), videos, and live performances. The commentaries alternate between informative, silly, and downright strange, but they do make the case for more bands giving their music a similar treatment. Likewise, the videos run the gamut from silly (the dancing cowboy in 'Rodeo,' the amorous sock puppets in 'We'll Make a Lover of You') to elevated (the stark animated/photo-collage video for 'Reformat [Dramatic Reading],' the scientific/sociological imagery in 'Hello Halo, Goodbye Glands'). And the live performances of 'Disco Drive,' 'Knowing How the World Works,' and 'Who Rocks the Party?' follow a similar devolution to Inches itself, with singer Tim Harrington getting covered with paint, removing half his clothes, diving into the audience, and, finally, serenading a bunny. With or without the bonus DVD, Inches is a comprehensive look at Les Savy Fav. [Mallory Towers issued a CD/DVD edition in 2008.] ~ Heather Phares
