Last Friday at the Hi-Fi was absolutely fabulous. We were entertained by three heavy-hitting local bands and a band from Venezuela, Zeta. This band was so good, I am still trying to come to grips with it. Spiller, Childspeak, and The Critical Shakes are so damn good on their own. Adding this band to the… Read More »

Not a review of Jargon’s new album Ginkgo Biloba
Kaichi, of the Eugene rock band, The Dimly Lit hit me up the other day and asked me to listen to his band’s new EP. He sent me the files and I gave it a listen. I really dislike writing album reviews. How do you review someone’s art? That said, this is what I think.… Read More »
