    The Weeds/The Lollipop Shoppe

    Everynowandagain it's rad to step in and offer something rare.....something that is responsible for what we're hearing in musack today....A sort of curatorial experiment.....How did we get here?  How did we go from simple instrumentation to large out of control over produced clean sounds and now back to minimalist-less enhanced musack (or at least some are trying)?  The Weeds are the brain child of super uber genius Fred Cole.....The Weeds quickly had to change their name to "The Lollipop Shoppe".......early garage rock/psych/60s SoCal power pop

    Wounded Lion "IVXLCDM" - 2011 LP

    Wounded Lion's "IVXLCDM" is one of the best albums I've heard in 2011......It's been a great year for new musack so that's an impressive list to make.....Wounded Lion is raw/punk/quirky/slightly experimental/fuzzed out rock....Love this album......The vox are extremely unique as well with a very 80s/Talking Heads/spoken word vibe going on.....This one is a must listen (one of LA's finest):
