Album Review:The Kills-Blood Pressures

Like this year's Wye Oak album, it is clear that there is considerable creative energy harnessed within the power of musical equivalents and the two piece combo behind The Kills' newest Blood Pressures is another compelling argument.    The album swings between restrained White Stripes jams and the tension revealed through the smoky PJ Harvey-esque vocal interplay along with her male partner in crime.    These cats know what they're doing.

Album Review:Wye Oak - Civilian

This boy-girl duo Wye Oak aligns the musical spirits of Sonic Youth, Curve, Medicine, and Unrest for a centerpiece of production and pop mastery for their newest album Civilian.    Throughout the LP, the songs often begin with a simple structure that regularly reveal fresh elements that pleasantly surprise you and then disappear moments later.    Great music for baking cinnamon buns or even playing Scrabble or possibly even celebrating an evolution.
