dolo toro - In Through the Out Door
Good music is undeniable. You can feel it. Doly toro’s music side-steps the angst and introspection common to modern rock, instead favoring the storytelling approach, giving audiences a sense of intimacy and a glimpse into their world. As a result, you can not help but sense the passion and their complete involvement with the art of music. That is what we feel when we listen to their CDs, watch them perform or admire one of their posters. It makes them unique, not only to the Wilmington music scene, but to the world of indie rock as well
Square Pegs DVD is Totally New Wave
An old favorite TV show of mine was put on DVD and released just a few weeks ago. It’s the campy and kitschy new wave series from 1982-83 called Square Pegs. Maybe you saw it then on CBS, or maybe, like me, you saw it at 1:00am on Nick at Night when they were running the really obscure stuff. Anyway, if you didn’t get to see any of this show, give it a whirl. It’s great. |
The Noseriders
...by May of 1963, instrumental surf music, identified by twangy guitars, staccato riffs and lots and lots of reverb, was heading for a collision course with the Beatles and the British Invasion. While many people think surf music came and went, it is important to note that the genre continues to this day and can be heard in its present form by the local ho daddies, the Noseriders.
