Cleveland rocks, hey. Cleveland rocks. Lost, forgotten, or perhaps never really known at all. The Revelers, with their 1998 release Day In, Day Out, regrettably fall into this category. It’s a shame, really, because the disc is a hook-laden, rock ‘n’ roll masterpiece (yes, I use the term loosely). I came across the Revelers by chance a few years ago, and have since found myself returning regularly to the album. It’s a distant favorite. They’ve got some kind of raw, unavoidable charm. There’s really no need to define it. Head over to Amazon to snag yourself a $.01 used copy.

Thank you, Erik Applewick, for continually enchanting me year after year (or at least, let’s agree, every two). Though you may know Applewick via last year’s indie sensation Tapes ‘n’ Tapes, or, if you’re local, power pop group the Hopefuls, Vicious Vicious is undoubtedly his most involved and perhaps his most acclaimed project. With a new crew of local musicians in tow, Vicious is no longer a solo side project. If you don’t fall in love with VV and their third release, Parade, I’d have to seriously question your musical acumen – so I hope you’ll appreciate my candor. You can stream the album’s track on the band’s official site before you make your necessary purchase.

“Are you trying to say that you’d rather decay than believe?”
By way of Bexhill On Sea, England comes the (fairly) new splendid little melodic-pop outfit Mumm-Ra. Their debut album, These Things Move In Threes, has been intentionally lodged in my car stereo for the past few weeks…and it elicits the same reaction from me every time. It’s a fantastic 11 track collection. I’ve included my favorite cut, “Now Or Never”, as well as the recent single “Out Of The Question.” As far as I know, the album hasn’t been released in the states – and I’m not even sure whether they have intentions to do so or not. Regardless, track this disc down somehow. It’s worth your effort, tenfold.
