075 Lord Huron - Strange Trails (2015)

Boogie Chitz ·

2025/01/29

The men who make Mangina Music suffer for us. They play with soft hands for our hard hearts - and we need to give thanks. Lord Huron's Strange Trails is a sprawling hallucinatory masterpiece that I'm pretty sure is way more popular than I think it is. It's also long and emotional - they're gonna need some assistance from the Canseco twins.

074 Funkadelic - Maggot Brain (1971)

Boogie Chitz ·

2025/01/22

Several years before Parliament Funkadelic grew into a multi-banded gang of diaper daddies traveling around the country in a crack-fueled spaceship, there was Maggot Brain - a standalone gift of collective imagination and a sonic pillar of the early-1970's Lori Lightfoot Era of American black music.

073 Guns N' Roses - G N' R Lies (1988)

Boogie Chitz ·

2025/01/15

We enter the Guns N' Roses Herpeverse via the band's second album G N' R Lies which contains songs recorded both before and after their historic Ape Tit debut. Initially released as a Geffen Records pacifier until the unpredictable band's next LP, Lies is an undervalued dudless wonder that bookends the group's opening volley toward global ambassadorship.

072 Holy Fuck - LP (2007)

Boogie Chitz ·

2025/01/08

Holy Fuck are pure punk electronica - creating dance music using everything BUT the standard loops and laptops to achieve that sound. This chaotic urgency is never more apparent and beautiful than on LP from 2007. Songs born out of improvisational jamming and then refined for record.

071 The Cars - Candy-O (1979)

Boogie Chitz ·

2025/01/01

With so many time-ambiguous single song bangers, it's tough to not classify The Cars as a 'greatest hits' band. But 1979's Candy-O is as cohesively beautiful as a standalone LP can get. And thank Christ The Cars got hot BEFORE the launch of MTV because they never would have gotten a glance with THOSE mugs.

070 Pantera - Cowboys From Hell (1990)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/12/25

Pantera ditch their hair hunk past yet keep the gay superhero band name and begin their groove metal assault on the nineties with Cowboys From Hell.

069 Mahlathini & The Mahotella Queens - Melodi Yalla...

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/12/18

Mbaqanga was a style of music birthed in the segregated South African township of Soweto in 1964. The super-unit of Simon 'Mahlathini' Nkabinde, Mahotella Queens and the Makgona Tsohle Band pumped out a volley of bouncy mbaqanga classics before the genre fell out of township taste in the late 1970s. The genre received a global re-up during the 1980s however, when several popular albums by American and British artists came out that were heavily inspired by the swing of township jive. Melodi Yalla was

068 Polaris - Music From The Adventures of Pete &...

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/12/11

One of a kind delight. A fictional band from a fictional television show creates a very-real compendium of sonic pleasure. Plus, we put the Hermanos Cansecos into action and show what happens to members of Boogie Chitz bands that quit.

067 The Limiñanas - Shadow People (2018)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/12/04

A chugging audio compote of cinematic psychedelia created by a garage rock lovin' couple from Perpignan, France. The Limiñanas are generally a two-person operation, but Shadow People is loaded with guests including one from Boogie Chitz past.

066 Steppenwolf - Steppenwolf 7 (1970)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/11/27

Seems like by 1970 Steppenwolf were already becoming a two-hit relic of the cultural past. Nonsense. Steppenwolf 7, which is technically their fifth album, is a furious nine-track assault that sounds like cocaine psychosis set to boogie rock. Love it.

065 Yazoo - Upstairs at Eric's (1982)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/11/20

A neck-to-nuts banger of a synth album found in a genre mostly celebrated via individual songs and videos rather than LPs. Upstairs at Eric's contains by my count three 'oh yeah I know that song' songs that are probably recognizable to the greater American public.

064 Frog - GROG (2023)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/11/13

Marination/Hibernation season is ovah for the class of 2023. Let us celebrate one of the stronger bears to emerge from the cave - or in this case frogs...ManFrogs.

063 Grimes - Visions (2012)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/11/05

Grimes dropped out of college before uncorking this masterpiece - created during a nine-day frenzy of imagination in her Montreal apartment. Good. Class dismissed.

062 The Rain Parade - Emergency Third Rail Power Trip...

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/10/30

Los Angeles 1983. While the hair hunx were leaving leather pant ass prints on the hoods of laundromat dryers, bands of the Paisley Underground scene were quietly cranking out sixties-style jingly-jangly psychedelia across town. The Rain Parade were the shortest-lived of all the P.U. bands, but their debut album Emergency Third Rail Power Trip helped garden just as much musical fruit of the future as it did pay tribute to the past.

061 The Band - Music From Big Pink (1968)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/10/23

After five wild years playing together as a support band for other artists, the corduroy boys of The Band find their original voice in the basement of a house in West Saugerties, New York and begin a near-decade run of rustic rapture.

060 Penza Penza - Alto E Primitivo (2024)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/10/16

Penza Penza is an Estonian big band/lo-fidelity sonic buzzsaw led by multi-instrumentalist/composer Misha Panfilov. Their fourth LP called Alto E Primitivo is fourteen instrumental rippers that could mow thru the thickest of Baltic bush.

059 The Lemonheads - It's a Shame About Ray (1992)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/10/09

Filled with breezy melodic beatitudes that are impossible not to enjoy, It's a Shame About Ray is an underrated alt-rock classic that proved Evan Dando did indeed deserve his lemon lordship. {{{Gracias Hermanos Cansecos}}} https://youtu.be/EzKcxQGOKKE?si=st8Z_R3rMnPmyxHC

058 Curtis Mayfield - Super Fly (1972 Soundtrack)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/10/02

Curtis Mayfield dropped a winner in 1972 with the Super Fly soundtrack. A masterwork so dense that its songs musically narrate the film while still maintaining accessibility to be plucked for off-the-reservation playlists. Your main boy, thick and thin.

2024/09/25

For their sophomore effort, the sextet of Scandinavian riff-raffers known as Viagra Boys seek fresh musical adventures in less-shrimpy waters - and ultimately discover bang city with Welfare Jazz.

056 The Sugarcubes - Life's Too Good (1988)

Boogie Chitz ·

2024/09/18

The slightly off-kilter art punk of The Sugarcubes was the first rock music from Iceland to gain ears in America. The band's debut album - Life's Too Good - is a bouncy masterwork and the world's introduction to Bjork - who by the way, is the SECOND weirdest singer in this band.
