Over the course of 2009’s “And Everything Changes” and last year’s “Modern Splendor,” the Elusive Parallelograms did a lot of things very well, and very quickly: two minutes of scuzzy shoegaze, then a quick minute of instrumental mood music, then two minutes of punk, then a languid two and a half minutes of proggy space rock, just to stretch out a bit.

With their debut EP “Machines”, Our Future Leaders aren’t wasting any time staking their claim in the Florida Rock scene. Some bands take an EP or two to work through the awkwardness of coagulating a new sound together, but “Machines” is evidence that that’s not always the case.

Me, I don’t know people.

But I know people who know people.

And no one I’ve talked to who’s involved in the Milwaukee music scene has a bad word to say about Mark Waldoch. They all have the same words -- gracious, totally genuine, phenomenally talented, true to his own muse, all the right kinds of crazy. You hear those qualities in the music, too.

“The way I saw it, we were in a race, a production race.”

So writes Brian Wilson in the liner notes for “The SMiLE Sessions,” a release that completes one of the most incredible and unlikely stories in the history of popular music: how an unfinished Beach Boys album, abandoned by its creator in 1967 after its recording drove him mad and destroyed his band, suddenly materialized 40 years later as maybe the greatest American record of the classic rock era.

When we last heard from Jettison Never we had just finished reviewing one of the smoothest, fast paced albums this side of the unsigned artist world. Through their signature harmony and unique musical blend, Jettison Never provided an unmistakable identity and sound on their debut album “They Fall From Heaven Unassembled”. The guys from Jettison mastered their craft so well that their song “Chemical” took home the top honors as our Best Rocksposed Song of 2009. So how would they follow up such a solid debut record? We took their newly released “Waiting for Apparitions” for a spin to find out.

Domenic Marcantonio snarls and spits like Elvis Costello tearing apart a room looking for his fucking glasses.

Ian Olvera might be Milwaukee’s premiere purveyor of pop, a thoughtful songwriter whose not embarrassed by the joys of a great hook.

Beach Patrol’s third album, “Daytime Highs,” oscillates between Marcantonio’s scorching frustrations and Olvera’s more temperate ruminations, with a few sparkling 80-degree in-betweeners as well.

Like a big rig motoring down the freeway, Trucker Diablo puts your speaker’s pedal to the metal from cover to cover on their debut album “The Devil Rhythm”. The trucker cap wearing band from Northern Ireland is pure Rock and Roll, plain and simple. If you’re looking for soft rock mixed in with some cheesy ballads, keep looking, you won’t find anything of the sort on “The Devil Rhythm”.

If you’ll forgive some highly technical critic-speak, Maritime just “sound” a lot better on “Human Hearts.”

Don’t despair, aspiring rock writers -- it’s taken me YEARS to hone my prose and critical thinking to the point where I can formulate these kinds of highfalutin hypotheses with such seemingly minimal effort.

Same goes for Maritime.

There was no “ah-ha” moment, no single, stunning, towering track that triggered the thought -- the Drive-By Truckers’ music of late is too unassuming for that. It was more like I was gradually remembering something I’d forgotten. Two songs left, nothing pressing, I pulled into my parking space, killed the engine, and sat in my car until new album “Go-Go Boots” finished.

Then I said to myself, “This is the best band in America.” .........

The best way to describe Lethal Dose is assault by guitar. Their music is aggressive, clean, heavy as hell, and ready to rock on their recently released album “Get Injected”. It’s fast, angry, and in your face from start to finish.

Experience is everything in the music business. And when you can multiply this experience by bringing together musicians who have seen the road, industry, and life from different perspectives, the results are often times an incredible collaboration that couldn’t be created inside the box of a band that has gone from start to finish together. After one listen, this perfectly sums up Lotus Crush and the ten track album, “Half Light Morning”, that releases Tuesday, March 1st.

I’d like to think the Delta Routine called their new album “More About You” because Cee-Lo and Bruno Mars beat them to “Fuck You.”

2K11’s first great album is one of the great rock and roll kiss-offs. Not a break-up album, it’s the kind of disc you reach for when you’re done with the break-up albums, when you’re ready to stop being mopey and start being pissed off.

Sometimes, when the winter Wisconsin sky is just a little too gray, and the cold seeps through three layers of clothing before my boot hits the sidewalk, and the two-block walk to my car chills like camping at Valley Forge, I’ll cue up “Pet Sounds” on the iPod just to remember summer, just to remind myself that there are riverfront patios and Pilsners and Cubs games at Miller Park at the end of this godforsaken brrr.

“Great Vacation!” exclaims Sleeping in the Aviary’s third album from its Ralph Steadman beach postcard cover, released, of all months, in frigid November. You might use the latest from Madison’s favorite Minneapolins the same way I use “Pet Sounds,” provided that you spent your summer accidentally killing your lover with a ball gag or drowning on a cruise ship......

2010 might go down as the year that Milwaukee shook off its alt-country corn stalks and caught the blues. Last Friday night, three of the city’s most thrilling bands took a packed Club Garibaldi back to rock’s roots in three distinctly thrilling ways: the Delta Routine’s jaunty pop; Rocksposure Artist of the Month the Ragadors’ 12-bar barrage; and the Wildbirds’ classic rock swagger. Three phenomenal bands, one phenomenal night of music, and we’ve got lots of pictures to prove it.

You know the old saying: three chords, infinite variations.

That’s the blues. Cranked up to 11, that’s the Ragadors’ debut LP “blackinkyswells” -- rolling stones tumbling down a mountain like boulders, anguished midnight wails bouncing off an empty bed, heartless women with blood on their hands, bad memories and restless wandering.....

When monsoon season drowned out the Wildbirds’ Milwaukee Boat Line EP-release party last month, the band tempted fate by rescheduling for a Friday the 13th. On cue, fate started grumbling as we approached the Milwaukee River docks, but it couldn’t muster more than a fussy sprinkle. Nobody seemed happier that the clouds parted than the Wildbirds...

2008: The Wildbirds fulfill the promise of coast-to-coast wowing and a big label deal with “Golden Daze,” which belongs on any shortlist of the best Milwaukee albums. Steven Van Zandt features “Suzanna” on one of his “Underground Garage” compilations. ESPN plays “421” during X Games promos. The band gives an old bus one of those Willie Nelson biofuel makeovers and heads West for more shows, more fans, more record sales, and maybe some road trip anecdotes to build album number 2 around.

And it’s at just that moment -- that big moment every band dreams about from the second they clear mom and dad’s car out of the garage for their first practice -- that the Wildbirds fell apart. Tensions and tour stress simmered. Two thousand miles passed like two million. The bus broke. The label went broke. The band went broke, played its shows, and then broke up.

Be careful what you wish for....

First thing's first: I unplugged everything, wiped down all the connections with electronics cleaner, plugged everything back in good and tight ... Ehh, a little better maybe. I clicked around a couple A/V forums looking for advice, and a consensus began to emerge. So I headed down to Jo-Ann Fabrics and bought some cork sheets and foam board --

Yeah, the craft store. You mean you've never made a custom platter mat for your turntable?

By Joey Tayler

Before the release party for Icarus Himself's excellent new EP, "Mexico," I thought you could put Led Zeppelin behind singer/songwriter Nick Whetro and his songs would still shrink from any pretense of grandeur. "All my life I've been digging holes ... Sometimes I say terrible things that I know," Whetro sings on EP opener "Digging Holes," which is a pretty good metaphor for how Whetro works musically. He's a burrower, not an excavator, not a builder of castles in the sky. Show him a picture of a happy family, he'll eyeball the faded scar on the little girl's knee and scratch at it until a subcutaneous 2-minute dirge wafts out.......

'The City that Never Sleeps' is home to The Constant, a four piece band that proudly embraces their 90's music roots. The band started with lead singer, songwriter, and guitarist Steven Baggs following some success in NYC after winning a song writing competition. After getting several interviews and opportunities with local NYC rock stations, Steven began to hand pick the band that would help him take his music to the next level.

Rock music out of California is generally synonymous with warm weather, fast cars, and a certain "Appetite for Destruction" that only 'The Golden State' can provide. But there is an exception to every rule, and the Mainland are this exception. Based out of Yuba City, The Mainland released their debut EP "Last Call" in 2009 and while success has begun to follow them, they don't necessarily fit the California mold.

By Joey Tayler

"Oh, how you're heart's on your sleeve," muses Nick Whetro over some harmless acoustic strumming on album-opener "Pigg." Sounds like a good thing, right?

Not so much. A menacing twang drifts in and darkens Whetro's mood until that heart "looks like a piece of dead meat."

In other words, "keep it to yourself," an unsettling sentiment coming from that most heart-on-sleeve variety of musician, the folksy troubador. On his full-length debut as Icarus Himself, National Beekeepers Society founder Whetro would prefer all that touchy-feely meat rot out of sight, or, better yet, in a box six feet under.....

In late 2008, Decibully's two-years-in-the-making third album, "World Travels Fast," evolved from Milwaukee's own mini-"Chinese Democracy" to Milwaukee's own mini-"Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" when Polyvinyl nixed releasing the record and dropped the band. Decibully streamed the album online last December, and fans have spent most of 2009 wondering if, when, and how they'd ever get their paws on it. Now we have the answers: Yes; Today; and Listening Party Records, a vinyl and mp3 label formed by band members Nicolas Sanborn and Andrew Menchal that, one hopes, will not be dropping Decibully any time soon..............

Episode 2: Heavy Metal Love Song
]]> Sun, 22 Nov 2009 11:24:32 GMT http://www.rocksposure.com/gk http://www.rocksposure.com/julian_casablancas_-_phrazes_for_the_young.html Rock writer par excellence and Rocksposure contributor Bryan Wawzenek has or had a theory that may or may not have been published in regards to a band or album that neither of us can remember, except that it probably referenced what a tool Roger Daltrey is.

To wit: Your favorite band is only as good as the lead guitarist. If you wanna be all mathematical about it, the Edge is greater than Bono, Keith is greater than Mick, Page is greater than Plant, and Pete is greater than that tool Roger Daltrey. The pretty boy stroking the mic stand and moaning come-ons to groupies in the front row might be the one on the cover of the Rolling Stone, but in the wee small hours, with the record due next week, he's also probably got a bottle of Jack in one hand and a fake boob in the other while the guitarist is chain-smoking at the sound board, layering in another solo and tweaking the beat so that the singer's slapdash poetry about Jack and boobs sounds a little less stupid....Continued at Rocksposure.com]]> Wed, 18 Nov 2009 19:51:11 GMT http://www.rocksposure.com/ei http://www.rocksposure.com/icarus_himself.html

It starts, as always, with Bradford Cox sounding lost, wandering through leaky sink distortion and disembodied voices towards an acoustic guitar lullaby on "The Light That Failed." Then the fog clears, and we hear ... pop music?

Made in Milwaukee wants you to think Milwaukee is cool. And if, like me, you already think Milwaukee is plenty cool, Made in Milwaukee wants you think Milwaukee is even cooler than that. Halloween, a ten dollar cover, and $3 PBR Tall Boys brought out a younger, more enthusiastic downtown crowd than the bored cocktail sippers who yawned with me through last November's MIM bash, a dull menagerie of faux-hipness that staged a succession of mediocre hip-hop acts around art displays and a vintage runway show.

Sleeping in the Aviary

You go to a live show to get up close and personal with a band, because even nosebleed seats at the United Center are nearer to the music than your stereo or iPod. Maybe you want to share an intimate conversation with your favorite singer-songwriter. Maybe you want to get buzzed off screaming guitars rattling your ear drums. Maybe you want to sing-a-long to that ballad you loved when you were fifteen with a packed house, and feel strangers connect with each other through the beauteous harmony of a shared song.

Or maybe you walk into a Milwaukee bar at 8 PM on Labor Day ... and you're the only one there.]]> Sun, 04 Oct 2009 15:23:56 GMT http://www.rocksposure.com/lq http://www.rocksposure.com/why_were_here.html
