7 Albums in 7 Days: #7 Fight

Posted by Lance Davis - May 2, 2018 - 7 Albums 7 Days, A Giant Dog, Andrew Cashen, Sabrina Ellis

I’m sure this is not a shocker. If you know me, you probably could’ve guessed that my 7th of 7 albums was gonna be something by Sabrina Ellis, be it A Giant Dog, Sweet Spirit, or all the way back to Bobby Jealousy. In fact, I almost picked Bobby J’s 2012 debut, A Little Death. […]

7 Albums in 7 Days: #6 Battle Cry For Help

Posted by Lance Davis - May 1, 2018 - 7 Albums 7 Days, Grand Champeen

A few years ago, I wrote about the reissue of The One That Brought You. That’s probably Grand Champeen’s best album. But, Battle Cry For Help is where my love began. It’s kinda funny to think of this album marketed and/or thought of as alt.country when it was released in 2001. Not that it was […]

Like Violent Femmes, If I Should Fall From Grace With God is punk as folk. Those first 3 Pogues albums — Red Roses For Me (1984), Rum Sodomy & The Lash (1985), and If I Should Fall From Grace With God (1988) — are as good as any artist’s first 3 albums. This was really […]

7 Albums in 7 Days: #3 Violent Femmes

Posted by Lance Davis - April 28, 2018 - 7 Albums 7 Days, Violent Femmes

I was 13 going on 14 when this album came out (in 1983) and that was good planning on my part. Even today it feels like the most teen album ever. It perfectly captures adolescent angst, the sexual frustration and confusion of that age, and is so refreshingly and uncomfortably honest about being a hormone-driven, […]
