And on the 7th Day…God created Jam: Sparklehorse
Typically we reserve our classic jams feature for stuff pre-1990. However, given the loss of Mark Linkous over the weekend, today we’re gonna make an exception. Linkous, probably most readily known for his work as Sparklehorse, apparently committed suicide outside a friend’s home in Tennessee on Saturday (shot himself in the heart). [...]

Wednesday, March 3, 2010
Guess what, Frumpsters: Tickets for our favorite band from Paris, France went on sale today in our neck of the woods. You know what that means? It means they make an easy plug in for a our weekly Jam of the Wednesday feature. Don’t worry. We won’t offer you anything that’s been picked up by [...]

Wednesday, February 24, 2010
In what’s certainly one of the more intriguing tours I’ve heard about in quite some time, Will Johnson (Centro-Matic, Monsters of Folk, South San Gabriel, solo) and Anders Parker (Varnaline, Gob Iron, solo) are just dying to fill fans’ living rooms with some organic alt-country rock come the end of March. You can find out more [...]

Wednesday, February 24, 2010
It’s wednesday, so that means it’s time for a new jam! This week I bring you an offering from the youngins from Florida, Surfer Blood. I’m a big fan of their new album, ‘Astro Coast’. This is a fun album with “Big” guitarwork. I’m reminded of early Weezer(ya know, when they were good), Pavement, and [...]

Friday, February 19, 2010
It’s been 5 years since we’ve had an album released under the name Broken Social Scene that wasn’t followed by ‘Presents’. That all finally ends on May 4th when their new album “Forgiveness Rock Record” graces our presence(album art above). BSS lineups have varied in the past and have a tendency to get a bit [...]

Sunday, February 14, 2010
Well, Valentine’s Day is coming to a close. If you haven’t gotten around to showing off your sausage skills yet, your opportunities have just about exhausted themselves, so why not close out the night with a classic jam (and one that is certainly topical)? It’s true, love ain’t for keeping. I stand firmly by that notion, [...]

Monday, February 8, 2010
In honor of Super Bowl Sunday, I held back on our weekly classic jam feature til today. All apologies. 90% of the time, I prefer originals to covers (every time), but occasionally you have to make an exception — Namely, when the cover in question just jams your frumpin’ pants off as much as this [...]

Wednesday, February 3, 2010
So it’s Wednesday, and it’s time to JAM (contemporarily, or something). Today we bring you a jam from one of my (Ciaran’s) all time favorite bands; a little indie group out of Halifax, Nova Scotia that goes by the name of “Sloan.” If it were up to me, I’d make sure the entire Frumpzilla community [...]

Sunday, January 31, 2010
Man…we’ve been waiting to frump this one bad. Several frumpsters have had several golden, “Listening While Impaired” (LWI) experiences with this one (or Listening Under the Influence (LUI), depending on the state (so to speak)). On an album/sessions that produced timeless classics like The Weight, Tears of Rage, I Shall Be Released, In A [...]
Continue reading...Jam of the Wednesday: Ponderosa
Wednesday, January 27, 2010
Ponderosa are an unsigned quintet from Athens (and Atlanta) Georgia. After seeing their live performance and getting a copy of their EP, Moonlight Revival, I think their “unsigned” status will only last as long as they choose. Fans of older Black Crowes material and Ryan Adams (or Whiskeytown era Ryan Adams) and the Stones will [...]

Monday, January 25, 2010
Well, I couldn’t let The GingerHead Man be the only Frumpster to miss a deadline this week, and thus I’m bringing you Frumpzilla’s weekly, classic jam feature a day late. The changes don’t stop there; we’re switching gears quite a bit by frumping an entirely different genre than we have the previous two weeks: [...]
Continue reading...And on the 7th Day…God created Jam: Words (Between the Lines of Age)
Sunday, January 17, 2010
Our classic jams feature sticks with last week’s theme of bringing you cuts from artists/albums we’ve done full fledged reviews of in the past. This week treat your east to probably the only song off Neil Young’s, virtually flawless, Harvest that one could strictly categorize as a true “Jam.” Crazy, I know…

Here is a little jam to get all you Frumpsters out there over your collective…

Sunday, January 10, 2010
It’s true. Contrary to popular Judeo-Christian belief, God actually didn’t rest on the 7th day. Well, not for, like, the entire day, or whatever. Instead he got busy Jammin’, or busy creating the concept thereof, that is. Our most loyal readers (I’d say there’s at least a Baker’s dozen of you at this point probably) have [...]

Thursday, January 7, 2010
The time has come for the debut of The Admiral here at Frump. You will likely see me posting f-tunes more than any other, due to my unhealthy obsession with music. Old music, current music and music that hasn’t even been released yet. (Dear RIAA, about that last part. I don’t steal, I time travel… and sample things to buy later… no, really). I [...]
