Lambchop: This (Is What I Wanted to Tell You)

By Holly Hazelwood
March 28, 2019
in :  Music, Music Reviews

An album that begs to be listened to on a rainy day, its depth and control of empty space the perfect complement for such gray conditions.

Top 25 Songs of 2012

By Spectrum Culture Staff
December 18, 2012
in :  Lists, Year End Lists

25) M.I.A. – “Bad Girls” [Interscope] Originally released by M.I.A. as a 2:13 worldbeat experiment on 2010’s Vicki Leekx mixtape, the extended edit of “Bad Girls” blends the jovial tenacity of the younger performer with the alternative pop sheen the songstress has cultivated in the interim 13 months. True, the song centers on M.I.A. getting banged in the front seat …

Rediscover: Lambchop: I Hope You’re Sitting Down/Jack’s Tulips

By Eric Dennis
October 1, 2012
in :  Music, Music Features, Revisit-Rediscover

Rediscover is a series of reviews highlighting past releases that have flown under the radar and now deserve a second look. With the dual benefits of time and familiarity, listeners now generally know what to expect from a Lambchop album. This wasn’t the case in 1994, however, when Kurt Wagner and the band’s first incarnation released its full length debut, …

Interview: Kurt Wagner from Lambchop

By David Harris
May 15, 2012
in :  Music, Music Features, Music Interviews

I asked Kurt Wagner if we could talk about his friend Vic Chesnutt, who committed suicide in 2009, before I started recording our discussion. To be fair, it would be somewhat cathartic for me because Chesnutt was not only an artist I loved and respected, but someone I had interviewed and talked with on the phone on a few occasions. …

Lambchop: Mr. M

By Kyle Wall
February 23, 2012
in :  Music, Music Reviews, Recommended, Recommended Music

[xrr rating=4.25/5]Sweeping strings bordering on the hokey have long been a crucial part of the Lambchop experience. On “If Not I’ll Just Die,” the opening song from Mr. M, they enter as if they’re transplanted from a minor-key bridge that might come later on the band’s 11th album and not during the album intro. But the strings here have a …

PLAYLIST: Lambchop

By Spectrum Culture Staff
February 21, 2012
in :  Music, Music Features, Music Playlist
Lambchop

Welcome to PLAYLIST. The idea is simple enough: make a playlist (with mix tapes and CDs becoming so unfortunately passé) centered around one artist or band with a deep catalog. There is only one parameter, however. Our charge is to limit our playlist to just one song per album per discography. This time around we decided to pick the best …

Concert Review: Lambchop

By David Harris
April 8, 2009
in :  Concert Reviews, Music, Music Features

Why oh why isn’t Lambchop playing to bigger crowds? Kurt Wagner’s songs have the right blend of aching melodies and sardonic, black humor and he has one of the most distinctive voices in indie music. But mention the name Lambchop and most will give a passing comment on Sheri Lewis and know next to nothing about this Nashville band. The …

Lambchop: OH (Ohio)

By Bob McCarthy
October 21, 2008
in :  Music, Music Reviews

Lambchop OH (Ohio) Rating: 3.0 Label: Merge Records Critics have always called Lambchop a country band. Opposition has replied, “Aw, C’Mon – you’re just saying that because they’re from Nashville.” I’ve always sided with the first set emotionally, but until OH (Ohio) I had no argument against the “just an indie band” contingent. Lambchop’s new album has made me realize …
