Junk Yard Dog
Producer and Earlimart frontman Aaron Espinoza shares stories of drinking on the job – while drinking on the job.

It's not easy finding information on indie rockers Earlimart – which is a shame, because vocalist/guitarist/producer Aaron Espinoza has some incredible tales to tell. A Fresno native, Espinoza eventually headed south to Los Angeles with several friends, musicians and creative types to establish a career in music – for better or for worse. (more)

Imperialism
One-on-one with Imperial Teen's Roddy Bottum.

Due to recent circumstances beyond our control, "pop music" (see: MTV definition) has become a very bad, bad phrase. In fact, children have been punished for publicly stating that they like it (well, they should be). But pop doesn't have to be bad. Case in point: Imperial Teen, the irresistibly charming two-boy, two-girl "bubblegum pop" group originally from San Francisco. (more)


Jeopardy
M. Ward phrases all his musical answers in the form of a question.

Ten TV Theme Songs that Impacted My Life
Who says television is a bad influence?

Pop culture critics, overprotective parents and Bob Dole all advocate that there isn’t enough substance in today’s television entertainment.

When I was growing up, whether the shows I watched were first-run or in syndication, television's wealth of wise, graceful and totally artistic theme songs always filled me with a warmth unattainable through any other outside force or influence. With that said, allow me to enrich your lives with a rundown of 10 television theme songs that shaped me into the intelligent and PERFECTLY sane individual that you've come to know and love. (more)

KAZAA-m!: The Anatomy
There's good music out there – you just have to sit on your ass all day and find it.

Using peer-to-peer file sharing programs to deconstruct the music industry can be quite time consuming. But there are more advantageous uses for programs like Kazaa than just downloading Bay City Rollers MP3s in the privacy of your own shame because you're too embarrassed to buy the albums at the store (we won't point fingers, so neither should you).
