6 Inch Records

By drock ⋅ January 6, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

So this is one of those things that I feel was done just for the sake of art and it’s pretty cool. Stanley Donwood, the man responsible for almost all art associated with Radiohead, has started his own record label. But wait, there’s a catch. There are only 3 releases that this label will ever [...]

Pearl Jam to re-release Ten album

By drock ⋅ December 10, 2008 ⋅ One comment

I read today that Pearl Jam is going to re-release their debut album Ten in several sets ranging from a standard 2 disc set all the way through a box set containing discs, vinyl, dvd and memorabilia. I’ve been a fan of PJ for as long as I can remember not just for their music [...]

Shadow 86 Jimi Hendrix Tribute show

By drock ⋅ August 27, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

We recently designed a poster for a Jimi Hendrix tribute show featuring Mike McCready, Shadow 86 and several special guests. This was a fundraiser for the charity organization Soulumination. We had just a few days to design the poster and get the art to D&L Screenprinting in Seattle. Then we flew over from Spokane, picked [...]

My friend Dennis told me about this site called Pandora where you create a “station” based on a favorite group or song. Then it plays similar songs that you can customize to create the perfect stream of music and you might even discover music you’ve never heard of. It’s a great site, works really well [...]

Chink The Armor
Another great song that didn’t make Alternative To Love (though not as great as Trouble With You. Love that song).

Here’s a great song that didn’t make it onto Brendan Benson’s last album.

Ted Leo & The Pharmacists

By drock ⋅ August 16, 2005 ⋅ 2 comments

So I don’t even remember how I stumbled across Ted Leo & The Pharmacists, but I started out with their “Hearts of Oak” album (with the exceptional song “Where have all the rude boys gone”) and was instantly hooked. It’s a solid album with some catchy riffs and great vocal and lyrical work. I also [...]
