On a related note, JEW also has some new product on the shelves -- a singles comp and a new split EP with Aussie band Jebediah. Keep an eye out for reviews of those discs and a promised but delayed look at Gloritone's latest in the coming weeks.
Rock Respite: With the dog days of summer upon us, it's time for this column and Brian Smith's Dischord, which run weekly (and, we hope, in perpetuity), to take a week off so that Mr. Smith and I can make our annual company-sponsored pilgrimage to Tuscany and the Montecatini Health and Wellness Spa in an effort to purge months of bad music from of our systems. Both columns will return the following week, but in the meantime look for features on Marah, Deftones, and a fresh batch of our monthly Gumbo column, plus local pieces on DJ Megadef, Superfine Dandelion, and much more.
