Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock ·

2013/07/16

In our latest episode, Tim brings an oddball to the table - The Rolling Stones and Small Faces inspired fourth album from Primal Scream, 1994's Give Out But Don't Give Up. As fans of Vanishing Point, XTRMNTR and Screamadelica can tell you, Give Out... is a hard one to figure out, where honky tonk piano, blues guitar riffs and soul singers abound. Does Primal Scream make take successful detour, or get lost in the weeds? Tune in and find out. Songs in this Episode: Intro - Rocks2:53 - History of the

2013/07/09

For Jason's latest pick, we're back in metal mode, this time revisiting the 1995 Subhuman Race by Skid Row. Many of the hair/glam rock and metal bands of the 1980s made failed attempts to update their sound in the 90s, how does Subhuman Race fare? Tune in to find out.

2013/07/02

The requested review for this week is from our familiar friend Gavin, who takes us back down under with the Hoodoo Gurus. Coming late in a successful career, 1994's Crank marks the Hoodoo's attempt at injecting some alternative rock sound into their trademark power pop. Does it work? Tune into find out.

Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock ·

2013/06/25

One of our frequent suggestors, Dirty Gert, gave us three challenging records to review this year, so we thanked him for his generosity by giving a bonus review of his choosing. With that, he picked the 1993 album Love Tara by Eric's Trip. His first three picks confused and confounded us, with this follow suit, or do we finally connect witha a Dirty Gert selection?

#127: Interview with the members of Lotion

Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock ·

2013/06/18

To help us revisit the suggested review of Lotion's 1996 sophomore album Nobody's Cool, we invited the whole band to join us, and they took us up on the offer. Brothers Bill and Jim Ferguson, Rob Youngberg and Tony Zajkowski all stop by to talk about history of Lotion, how their band name cost them ten grand, and we learn what happens when six Skype users can't maintain a consistent wi-fi signal. We kept the technical difficulties in this one for your amusement. Oh, and EARMUFFs for the kids,

#126: Year of the Rat by NY Loose

Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock ·

2013/06/11

We're back with another pick by Jason, and we've got some good old fashioned disagreement! Unique and original, or familiar and predictable? Where does the the 1996 album Year of the Rat by NY Loose fall? Tune in to find out. Songs in the Episode: Intro - Rip Me Up 2:33 - History of the Band 7:10 - Detonator 8:53 - Sunday Morning 12:23 - Broken 17:37 - Rip Me Up Outro - Trash the Given Chance Follow on Twitter / Facebook Request A Review

#125: I Love You by I Love You

Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock ·

2013/06/04

#125: I Love You by I Love You We're back with another requested review, and this one has left us a bit confused. I Love You is a band with little history or output, but what they did leave us is a self-titled debut album that shifts between Jane's Addiction-like alternative funk and Guns N' Roses riffing. See what we mean by confused? Songs in the Episode: Intro - Open You 1:58 - History of the Band 4:01 - Fuzz the Whirl 8:25 - Hang Straight Up 11:27 - 2 23:47 - She's The One/I.N.S.E.T. Outro -

#124: Naveed by Our Lady Peace

Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock ·

2013/05/28

For Jason's latest pick we return to 1994 and tackle the debut album Naveed by Our Lady Peace. Following this record, the band found greater success with the second release Clumsy, but is Naveed actually the better album? We dig into Naveed, discuss the merits of the second wave of alternative in the 1990s, and ponder the origins of the nasally Canadian singer.

#123: Fade/Cliche by Sportsguitar

2013/05/21

On episode #123 our frequent suggestor Dirty Gert throws his third requested review of the year into the ring with the Swedish duo Sportsguitar and their 1996 album Fade/Cliche. Like Radial Spangle and Space Needle, Sportsguitar is a challenge upon first listen. Hidden beneath layers of guitar noise are pop melodies, some deeper than others. Are they too deep, or just right? Tune in to find out. Songs in this Episode: Intro - Down 10:20 - Terror 13:49 - Reality 18:40 - Down 21:34 - Serious Outro

#122: Singles Soundtrack

Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock ·

2013/05/14

For episode #122, we turned over selection to our Facebook followers to decide what would be our first soundtrack review. The response was overwhelming - it's the soundtrack to the 1992 Cameron Crowe film Singles. Logically, a movie about Seattle in the early 90s features bands like Pearl Jam and Soundgarden, but curveballs like Paul Westerberg and The Lovemongers add some unexpected highlights. Is Singles the best compilation of early 90s alternative rock? Tune in to find out. Intro - Dyslexic

For episode #119, we're tackle a listener suggestion: The Moray Eels Eat The Space Needle by Space Needle from 1997. Only this time, we've brought in our listener to tell us why he decided to suggest this album, that bounces between ten-plus-minute space rock experiments to concise and bittersweet harmonized morose pop.

For episode #118, Aaron Perrino of The Sheila Divine joins us to revisit their debut 1999 album, New Parade. Our wide ranging discussion covers a variety topics, including the whether Cleveland or Buffalo are the sadder city, the workout habits of Greg Dulli, eyeglass endorsements and contracting SARS in China. Oh, and we also talk music, songwriting, recording, touring and all that good stuff, as well as an impromptu a cappella version of Joe Esposito's "You're The Best." Songs in this

#117: Pony Express Record by Shudder To Think

Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock ·

2013/04/09

For our latest listener suggestion, we finally get around to a beloved album that flew under our collective radar for too long - 1994's Pony Express Record by Shudder To Think. The twists and turns are plenty on STT's major label debut, but hidden inside these dissonant and jagged tunes are melodic hooks that would make Matthew Sweet swoon. And that's not the only oddball reference we'll make, as Alice Cooper, Jesus Christ Superstar and more get tossed into the reference potluck in an attempt to

#116: Murk Time Cruiser by aMiniature

2013/04/02

Episode #116 brings us another listener suggestion, this time we check out the 1995 album Murk Time Cruiser by aMiniature (the first "a" is silent, if you didn't know). Combining disjointed rhythms and razor sharp guitar riffs, aMiniature are in the same stratosphere as the recently reviewed Knapsack, evening sharing the same producer for their third and final album, just like Knapsack. But is that where the similarities end? Tune in to find out. Songs in this Episode: Intro - He, The Bad

The lone release by Seattle-supergroup Mad Season, 1995's Above, is being re-released in 2013 as a box set with new material and a live concert, so now is the time to revisit. Often, musical supergroups fail to live up to the sum of their parts (re: The Thorns or Velvet Revolver), does Mad Season? Is this just another "grunge" record, or does Above rise...um, above?

2013/03/12

For listener request episode #113, we're heading down the road less, or never travelled: Radial Spangle, and their second (and last) album, 1994's Syrup Macrame. Indie and alternative aren't specific enough to describe Radial Spangle's music: neo-experimental-space-psychedelic-lo-fi-rock? We're not quiet sure what to make of much of the album, but moments shine through - are their enough? Tune in to fine out.
