Music Reviews:
by S.D. Lewis & the Signumials

• Eltro ~Velodrome
Quirky electropop nuggets sprinkle shimmering notes over simple, looped beats…

• Violet Indiana ~ Roulette
Vocals as dark and sore as a bruise, with a musical backdrop as big and shimmering as a prairie moon.

• Perry Farrell ~ Song Yet To Be Sung
It would be better if Song Yet To Be Sung were Album Yet To Be Made.

• Björk ~ Vespertine
The thoughtful, passionate ruminations of a strong woman in love.

• K. ~ New Problems
Bringing on a cast of indie stars as well as her Ida bandmates, K. has crafted a collection of emotionally naked, smartly skewed songs.

• The Dream Syndicate ~ The Days of Wine and Roses (reissue)
Introversion and basic beats exist in perfect harmony with bursts of tension and melodic gushes of guitar-based noise.

• Gillian Welch ~Time (The Revelator)
Welch wields her fireside voice with simple charm and calm finesse.
