"I call it Americana with a touch of British psychedelic rock ... sort of a Ryan Adams-meets-Pink Floyd," Levy says of the new material. "I like lush instrumentation and orchestration. I love electric guitar solos, too, but on this new record, I tried to hold back a bit. There are only two songs with electric guitar on them. I think you can hear the David Gilmour influence in my playing, and you can hear the R.E.M., Neil Young, and Ryan Adams in my writing, too."

The Brian Jonestown Massacre - May 28, 2010

2009-12-22T11:00:00.000-06:00

"We started in late 1990...we were young and full of Acid, E's and ideas. We played our first gig at a College Frat house in Berkeley and it fucking sucked. We played our second gig at an African American Masonic Hall on Haight st. and it was FUCKING ACE!!! After that, we broke up and got back together again when we got a letter from Bomp Records saying "We want to put your record out" (this happening after Greg Shaw read a bad review of our demo's!!!) Then we got the support slot for Sonic Boom's Spectrum and we met Naut Humon from Asphodel Records who soon became Executive Producer of our first album project. Several singles, albums, EP's, countless tours, inevitable line-up changes and a documentary followed. The band's profile being raised considerably by the film (for better, or for worse) created a demand for an Anthology and has allowed the band to tour the world regularly..."

The Knitters - May 12, 2010

2009-12-20T23:55:00.000-06:00

The Knitters are back. After a 20 year recording hiatus, John Doe, Exene Cervenka, and DJ Bonebrake, all of the legendary punk band X, have joined forces with Grammy® winner Dave Alvin and Jonny Ray Bartel to release their first album since 'Poor Little Critter on the Road,' their 1985 debut. John Doe testifies: "The Knitters, like their music, don't do anything hasty. Since our last record's been out for a while and it did pretty good, we figured it was just about time to put out another." Their new album, 'The Modern Sounds of The Knitters,' revisits the alternative country sound they helped create with a new batch of originals, plus covers as far-ranging as Steppenwolf's "Born To Be Wild" and The Stanley Brothers' "Rank Stranger." Also included are re-workings of the X classics "Burning House of Love" and "In This House That I Call Home," and "The New Call of the Wrecking Ball," a sequel to The Knitters' classic from their debut.

hundred miles before it ever hits anything, and where you can lose track
of the day in a heartbeat..." - Daytrotter
