		<title>Lucksmiths</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lucksmiths&#8211; A Good Kind of Nervous (Drive-In 21) Lovely Aussie Pop that recalls the hearty jangle and innocent tunesmithery of The Go-Betweens&#8211; who I like&#8211; with extra helpings of harmonica, cello, trumpet and female harmonies that remind me of Belle and Sebastian&#8211; who I don&#8217;t, especially. Can&#8217;t say that any Australian band has produced a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pullman band</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8211; Turnstyles and Junkpiles (Thrill Jockey 55) A Minor Forest&#8211; Inindependence (Thrill Jockey 56) So maybe I go off a little half-cocked sometimes. But damn, I guess I just got a little tired of that &#8220;post-rock&#8221; word and went off on the last Tortoise album. And I’ll not take any of that back. You’d expect [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lambchop</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What Another Man Spills (Merge 146) My first reaction to the new Lambchop album is lovely. And then I think how do they get away with it? Kurt Wagner&#8217;s ever expanding orchestra of the absurd (now up to fourteen members, all completely necessary, I am sure) wanks about with bedtime stories concerning desperate losers, dog [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Monorchid band</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Who Put Out the Fire (Touch and Go) Pull over, pop quiz time! Get yer hand out of yer pants and answer this simple-to-answer question. Which has the shortest lifespan? a) a live oyster at a raw bar b) a TV show starring a Wayans brother c) any band &#8212; such as Circus Lupus, Las [...]]]></description>

		<title>Flin Flon</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A-OK (Teenbeat 252) Sound-track music for a 90&#8242;s John Hughes analogue? Indie party music? Or just Mark Robinson&#8217;s continuing early-80&#8242;s fetish shooting through a new hole? Little bit of all three. The story here. . and this is actually a pretty selfless move, one that only makes Mark R. seem like all the nicerdude. . [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Destroyer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Destroyer (Digital Hardcore 16) The sound of Digital Hardcore Recordings is the sound computers make when they scream. DHR pushes everything into the red and beyond. The formula seems simple Crank the gain on every sound you have until the essence of Slayer is manifested in your sampler. Usually this means Digital Hardcore Recordings, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Adventures In Stereo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Adventures In Stereo&#8211; Alternative Stereo Sounds (Bobsled) By its very nature, pop music means different thingsto different generations, even though each generation (and sub-generation;you can plan on a five-year purge) expects it to stick for all eternity. To my (older) sister&#8217;s gang, &#8220;pop&#8221;meant the Monkees&#8217; &#8220;Last Train To Clarksville,&#8221; and to her, a pop songstill [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[David Grubbs&#8211; The Thicket (Drag City 160) It&#8217;s no secret to anyone who reads this quaintlittle sheet of ours that I was deeply conflicted as to the worth of thelast Gastr del Sol album, in a way that only someone with way too muchfree time can be. ( I mean, I wrote something like fourdrafts [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Union Of A Man &#38; A Woman&#8211; The Sound of The Union of a Man &#38; A Woman (Jagjaguwar 009) Finally A Va. band that I can personally guarantee that Greil Marcus would pop a chub over. How cliched is this story, three high-schoolers practice in their basements for a couple of years getting it [...]]]></description>

		<title>Silver Jews</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Silver Jews&#8211; American Water (Drag City 145) &#8220;People in Charlottes-ville seem to be a) Not really ambitious, and b) Kind of inhibited,&#8221; Dave Berman told the magazine, Magnet following the release of his band&#8217;s second CD, Natural Bridge, last year. &#8220;I think the I.Q. level in Charlottesville is a little too high, just high enough [...]]]></description>
