John Cate & The Van Gogh Brothers – X
Review — November 28, 2011
The newest John Cate & The Van Gogh Brothers album X has been released and I am happy to say it does not disappoint. The album has twelve tunes on it that fit well with what you have come to expect from John and the band, great melodies, three part …
John K. Samson – Provincial
Review — April 2, 2012
It’s already been four plus years since the last Weakerthans record. If I weren’t aging quickly myself, that would feel like a long time. While I’m not sure what’s up with their status as a band, ringleader John K. Samson set aside time in early 2011 to record his first …
John, The Void – Self Titled EP
Review — August 18, 2014
Proving that Italians can do the doomy, post-metal thing just as well as anyone else, mysterious and methodical five-piece group John, the Void’s 2014 self-titled EP (which actually runs a bit longer than what I might typically expect from an extended play) features six tracks ranging from two minute ambient …
Father John Misty – I Love You, Honeybear
Review — March 16, 2015
I saw Father John Misty in concert about two years ago.

He lit a cigarette almost immediately and somehow, in the carcinogenic chokehold, sang in a …
Swami John & The Blind Shake – Modern Surf Classics
Review — March 30, 2015

John Carpenter – Lost Themes
Review — October 29, 2015
Having produced the energetic low-budget action picture Assault on Precinct 13 in 1976 prior to laying the foundations of the modern slasher movie with 1978's Halloween, film director John Carpenter positioned himself as a master of frightening and just plain exhilarating cinema with the early '80s trio of The …
John Frum – A Stirring in the Noos
Review — July 17, 2017
Technicality in death metal is a very common treat, and it has been present within the genre since its beginnings. Through time this idea has evolved, moving from the likes of Death and Suffocation to acts like Artificial Brain and Ulcerate. John Frum is a new entry in this …
John Prine – The Tree of Forgiveness
Review — June 25, 2018
John Prine's first album of new material in 13 years is a great place to start with the legend’s career, as it kind of covers the ground of the sometimes funny, sometimes terribly sad songs he’s known for. Working with Dave Cobb (known for producing both Jason Isbell and Chris …
