Steve Horowitz: New Monsters
by Bruce Lindsay
Old monsters? They were frightening, gargantuan, mythical beasts: fire-breathing, blood-lusting and not at all willing to put together anything close to a danceable riff. New Monsters, at least as envisioned by bassist Steve Horowitz on this Posi-Tone album, are a much more engaging bunch. There's still some fire-breathing in evidence, but the blood lust is kept ...

The Jeff Gauthier Goatette: Open Source
by Ian Patterson
Open Source would have made a good alternative name for violinist Jeff Gauthier's ensemble, as it draws inspiration from myriad sources. Goatette continues its near twenty-year journey into territory ranging from avant-garde and sci-fi soundscapes, and deep funk grooves colored by searing electric guitar, to an altogether more pastoral melodicism reminiscent of the Mahavishnu Orchestra at ...

Back when Tom Waits released Real Gone, I used the concept of the essential nature of a pair of bluejeans to illustrate how that record could be used to get at what Waits' music is all about—an introductory album of sorts, one with a high score on the “Waits-y Scale." Much of the idea of Waits' ...
Forgotten Series: Tom Waits - Real Gone (2004)
Obsessive rituals of youth. It's all boils down to pants. Blue jeans, specifically. See, back before we had “pre-washed," “stone-washed," “acid-washed" or any of them other variants, we had plain 'ole blue jeans. And let me tell you...they were very blue and very tough. There was a lengthy (and somewhat painful) break-in process. Even after those ...
