Prindle's irreverant album reviews are completely unlike any other on
the Internet or anywhere else for that matter. He shows no regard for
his audience or his subject - ergo totally refreshing reading. As somebody
remarked, he employs a revolutionary new technique for making them seem
like they are not like reviews. His taste is fabulously eclectic - anybody
who can give equal space to such artistry as the Monkees, Turtles, Tenacious
D, Metallica & John Cougar Mellencamp has got to be read.
Odd
little record company that picks up some interest-ing titles. The Spongetones
are here, Kimberly Rew and . . . well, a bunch of bands just
waiting for you to discover them.
Powerpop
from the French perspective but written in English. Concentrating on classic
powerpop albums & vinyl releases that have yet to see CD release,
this site is a mine of fascinating and enriching information. It is frequently
updated and thoroughly researched.
These Archives seemd to have disappeared
Articles,
reviews, interviews and pictures from great pop music of the last 40 years.
Also the home of the Pet Sounds eZine.
A virtual feast of Power Pop, Jangle Pop and Melodic Pop all right at
your fingertips! Choose between two radio stations, 60s Jangle, featuring
some of your favorite artists of yesteryear and Jangle Radio,
featuring today's best and brightest. Links galore on just about
every page. Looking for a good suggestion? Check out the playlist
and go nuts! Also, be sure to check out their MP3.com page for
a TON (what's a metric ton???) of downloads.
I
would recommend that everyone in the group check out artofthemix.org.
If you haven't heard of it, it is basically a
collection of mix tapes and cds made by people who love music and love
mixing songs, artists and genres to create that perfect sound. There are
some great power pop mixes in there and I would
recommend that you start by searching for the names of some of
your favorite artists or songs and going from there.
