Featured Review from The Onion A.V. Club
April 14, 2012Ian Svenonius is a spirited punk polemicist who has rallied lots of different projects like Nation Of Ulysses, The Make Up, Scene Creamers, Weird War, and, now, Chain And The Gang, a new band that presents itself as something of a blues outfit. more at avclub.com

Featured Review from Chicago Reader
April 12, 2012Ever since the second wave of D.C. hardcore peaked in the late 80s and early 90s, Ian Svenonius has been something like the weirdo fun-house-mirror version of Fugazi’s Ian MacKaye. more at chicagoreader.com

Featured Review from Chicago Reader
April 12, 2012Occasionally someone who’s not a fan of metal will ask me to explain its appeal, and usually one of the first points I make concerns its ability—especially in a live setting—to completely obliterate listeners, granting them the same kind of temporary extinction of the ego that people also find in psychedelic drugs or orchestral music. more at chicagoreader.com

Featured Review from Chicago Reader
April 12, 2012On her second solo album since the late-90s dissolution of Nickel Creek, the crossover bluegrass band she cofounded as a preteen in 1989, fiddler and singer Sara Watkins refines her gentle folk-pop, combining airy, often urbane melodies with old-timey instrumental flourishes that hark back to her roots in rural music. more at chicagoreader.com
