Articles tagged "lambchop"Books ReviewOur Noise: The Story of Merge Records, the Indie Label That Got Big and Stayed Small by John Cookby Evan Sawdey[11.Sep.09] :. Despite some generous editorializing, Our Noise is as engaging (and human) a music industry tale as you're ever going to read.  Slipped Discs 2008 FeaturePart 2: Katzenjammer to Xiu Xiuby PopMatters Staff[22.Jan.09] :. From Katzenjammer to Xiu Xiu, PopMatters presents our second batch of Slipped Discs, 40 great albums that didn't quite make our year-end list in 2008, but our writers thought belonged there. PopMatters Pick Music ReviewLambchop: OH (ohio)by Matthew Fiander[6.Oct.08] :. This might be the best country record of 2008. Or maybe it's the best soul record of 2008. Or the best folk record. Who knows? Lambchop has never cared much for genres. PopMatters Pick Music ReviewLambchop: Damagedby Michael Lomas[30.Aug.06] :. Lambchop have long been one of America's greatest bands, and Damaged is their greatest achievement.  Music ReviewLambchop: The Decline of Country & Western Civilization Part II: The Woodwind Yearsby Jason MacNeil[21.Jul.06] :. Aside from the occasional clunker, this album of b-sides, rarities, alternate takes, and unreleased tracks shows that Lambchop should be remembered primarily as a fine alt.country community, not some sock the late Shari Lewis wore on her hand.  Music ReviewLambchop: Aw Cmon / No You Cmonby Adrien Begrand[27.Feb.04] :. It took some guts, but Kurt Wagner’s confidence in his wealth of material has yielded two of Lambchop’s strongest albums to date, and the band has regained the form they showed in the late ‘90s and 2000. Lambchopby Adam Weight[4.Apr.02] :. With the much heralded musical shift from the country-soul amalgam of Nixon, to the sparser, quieter textures of their latest offering Is A Woman, Lambchop have received much... Lambchop: Is a Womanby Andrew Gilstrap[19.Feb.02] :. It’s a difficult album, despite its warm and friendly feel, and it doesn’t stand a chance in seven hells of yielding anything remotely resembling a hit. Lambchop: Tools in the Dryerby Kevin Mathews[18.Sep.01] :. A mixed bag? Surely that was the intention all along. You’ve got to love a band that defies easy categorization, if any at all. Now for that eagerly anticipated sixth album! Lambchop: Nixonby Fred Kovey[8.Feb.00] :. Nixon is an excellent record and proof that Lambchop is no longer just a talented or interesting band but a good one. |
