Modcast #585: Shakin' It Down with Star Collector

This week on the Modcast I shakedown the breakdown with Vancouver's own power pop sensations Star Collector. Vic and Steve join me to dish the dirt on the making of their latest album, Everything Must Go!

Listen Now
Download

They're not holding anything back, the band puts it all out there for their seventh full length release. Overall the album has a strong, modern rock vibe with hints of the influences you'd expect surfacing all throughout from The Who to Big Star to Teenage Fanclub. And while those echoes are there, the album stands on its own songwriting with hooks aplenty and lyrics from clever to emotional. The title track is loud, glitzy and anthemic and will have audiences bouncing along, driven by Who like guitars and pounding drums. Then there's the notstalgic Victory Dance with it's mod scene theme that all aging mods can relate to. Other standout tracks include Shakedown the Breakdown, Station 8, and Victory Dance. Hell I could list all 13 tracks as stand outs. So, come along for the show, you'll be glad you did.

Modcast #583: The Decline Of Western Civilization Contd.

No one is united, and all things are untied, poetic lines that emotionally personalize the political, are the opening lines of X's The World's a Mess, It's in My Kiss and this Modcast #583: The Decline of Western Civilization Contd. As poignant now as they were in 1980 when written by Exene Cervenka and John Doe of X. Now, they again resonate with what is happening in the world. Happy birthday America, such as it is.

Carve out a bit of time and listen to the whole podcast start to finish. I'm trying something a little bit different and would love to hear what you think. Leave a comment on the modcast homepage at mistersuave.com.

Modcast #580: It's All Too Beautiful

What can I say about the Small Faces that hasn't already been said? Not much honestly. I'm not a Small Faces junky. But I do love their music. In fact, in my earliest mod days I think I preferred them to The Who. It's been said that The Who was a band that became mods, but the Small Faces were mods who became a band. I was looking for some covers of Small Faces songs when I realized how few there really are out there. Compared to the hundreds of covers of The Who, The Kinks, The Stones and other British invasion acts of the 60s, I was shocked at just how few people have covered their songs over the years. And amongst those, fewer still ones that are really any good. I've gathered here a double handful that I think fit the bill and do the group justice.

Modcast #578: Get Mod Jazzed

Good luck trying to get a definitive answer to what mod jazz is. It's like the famous comment by US Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart when asked to define what obscenity is: "I know it when I see it." Well thats me with mod jazz folks, I know it when I hear it. Maybe soul jazz is a better shorthand term, this music certainly has a lot of soul to it. All I can do is play the music for you and let you be swept away by it.
