V&V Ep. 138 Rainer Fronz (Learning Curve Records & Caterwaul Fest)
Do you know Rainer Fronz? In some way you probably do, but it's the plight of the person behind the curtain that few people ever seem to see or notice the efforts of a guy like Rainer. As it is for most record label owners. Fans notice the artists and albums a label puts out more than the guy...

V&V Episode 132 Venus Twins & The Mars Volta's Deloused in the Comatorium
What a great band Venus Twins are! If you're not familiar, they're certainly noisy but as I learn in this episode, they've had some musical training, and that shows through in a jazzy, proggy way. Kinda like this album we discuss, The Mars Volta's Deloused in the Comatorium. To be honest, this…

V&V Episode 032 Marissa Nadler and Leonard Cohen's Songs From a Room
Doom and gloomy, haunting, shoe-gazey, or gothic folk are ways that Marissa Nadler's music may be described. Those may very well be true, but I think there's more to her talent than that. And based on our conversation, there is a metamorphosis coming. Like all great artists, evolutions are...

V&V Episode 054 Mac Blackout & Brian Eno's Another Green World
