Truckers stop in Charleston Latest recording, a critically acclaimed 'Creation's' KEITH RYAN CARTWRIGHT Special to The Post and Courier Provided/New West Records Critically acclaimed Athens, Ga.-based Southern rock band the Drive-By Truckers will play a show at the Music Farm tonight. A favorite among critics, a lot has been said and written about the Drive-By Truckers. And so it comes as no surprise that their latest offering — 'Brighter Than Creation's Dark' — has been heralded in nearly every publication since its release. 'They let the songwriting speak for itself, and it sings loud and clear,' wrote Robert Christgau in Rolling Stone magazine. Allmusic.com called it a 'dazzling return to form,' while Uncut magazine proclaimed: 'The dirty South's poet-rockers rise again.' And, of course, Paste magazine noted that at more than an hour long, the album is an 'expansive statement.' To read the remainder of the article click here.

Ulrich Reveals Metallica Tour Plans at L.A. Benefit Metallica Mitchell Peters, L.A. Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich revealed last night (May 14) during an intimate Los Angeles benefit concert that the band will follow the September release of its new, as-yet-untitled album with a tour in October. "That was the first show of the tour," announced Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett, who, along with his bandmates, shredded through a nearly two-hour set with such hits as "For Whom the Bell Tolls," "Fuel," "Master of Puppets," "...And Justice for All," "Enter Sandman," and "Seek and Destroy," at Los Angeles' 2,300-capacity Wiltern Theatre.

"Emo" is actually a term that predates the current use of it. It began as a way of describing Fugazi and other artists that were part of the DC punk scene back in the 80s but has been entirely misappropriated in recent years to mean something else entirely.

Personally, I've never seen the need in pitting one band (or artist) against the other. I love both the Grateful Dead and Led Zeppelin. Being a music fan isn't some sort of competition.

Goes to show you haven't heard one fucking note of the Truckers' music, much less seen them in concert or you would know they are nowhere near a "mullet friendly" band. As for insulting who "first", I didn't say a thing about "mullets", that would be you.

Not sure what you're implying there but if you're grouping the Drive-By Truckers in with "mullet-friendly" bands you've just shown how totally fucking clueless you are.

He sings some tunes on the studio records (Pride of Cucamonga, Box of Rain and others). I like his voice well enough there but live it sounds pretty fucking bad, at least to my ears. Phil, giving it that ol' college try...

One of the greatest but the greatest? I'm not so sure I'd agree with that especially since there's so many other very worthy contenders such as the Grateful Dead, the Beach Boys, The Band, CCR, the Black Crowes, R.E.M., Pearl Jam, the Replacements, etc. and that's just scraping the tip of the iceberg. I will always love Aerosmith's early albums but they've faltered greatly since regrouping. They still kick ass live though.

Can't say I really hear a lot of Stones in Aerosmith's music, they always struck me more as an amped up version of the Yardbirds. I always thought the Stones comparisons came from more of a visual standpoint with Tyler and Jagger or even Tyler/Perry and Jagger/Richards.

I have no idea what that is. I know it seemed to take forever for their greatest hits video comp to even make it to DVD. I'd love to see a full concert, especially one shot before they changed their sound.

Review of Strangers Almanac Deluxe Edition from Flagpole Magazine

Tres Hombres is one of the first albums I ever bought back in the early to mid 70s when I first started getting into music but I never saw them live until the 90s on a bill with Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Ted Nugent. I love early ZZ Top best. I like a song here and there after they "modernized" (for lack of a better word) their sound but for the most part stopped buying their records back in the Eliminator era. Still, they kicked ass live but I couldn't help but thinking the entire time that I'd much rather be seeing them in a bar than at some shed.

Some others with multiple singers: R.E.M. (Michael Stipe, Mike Mills) Replacements (Paul Westerberg, Tommy Stinson) The Gourds (Kevin Russell, Jimmy Smith, Max Johnston) Lynyrd Skynyrd (Ronnie Van Zant, Steve Gaines, Rickey Medlocke) Allman Brothers (Gregg Allman, Dickey Betts)

I know what Shonna Tucker rhymes with...

Thought maybe you could use it to patch the hole in your Ian Anderson blow-up doll as it appears you must not be gettin' any lately.

Please don't take this the wrong way but it appears you're having members of the board do your research for you. Wouldn't you actually learn more about the subject if you were to do the legwork yourself?

That's cool but I was actually talking about Tift and Zeke finally tying the knot.

Todd being recorded by Don Was. The song is about Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Dock Ellis who pitched a no-hitter in 1970 while tripping on LSD.

Sounds like you need to turn off the computer, slowly back away from it and go outside to get a breath of fresh air.
