Charitable Monsters
If you have ever seen Columbus’ favorite band of 2011 live in concert, it’s very likely your face was melted off your skull by their fiery electro-rock tunes.  The Town Monster is back and making plans to turn up the heat on 2012.  Their first mission of the year:  take a monster bite out of hunger.  How will they complete this mission? By throwing a rockin’, drunkin’,...

Fanfarlo - Shiny Things On Monday, NPR premiered Fanfarlo’s mind-bending new music video for their single “Shiny Things” from their upcoming release Rooms Filled With Light. The band also released a trippy video for the song “Replicate” last September.  After these amazing teases, I am incredibly antsy to hear the rest of the album! Rooms Filled With Light hits...

Have you hosted a touring band at your home?
Are you a band that prefers to stay with friends/fans while on the road? Tell me about the best times you’ve had hosting/staying! Tell me about the nightmare guests/hosts!  I’m compiling these tales (including my own) for a special Jack in the Pocket article. Being on the road is quite expensive so I’m always down to help touring bands out by offering them a free place to...

Max Wax :: Columbus, OH
Whenever I travel to a new city, I always try to seek out a record shop or two.  When I was in Memphis last October, I was lucky enough to be staying half block away from Goner Records. In Pittsburgh, I stop by Jerry’s Records. If you find yourself in Columbus, Ohio, or if you happen to live in this awesome city, I recommend exploring the following shops… Used Kids: 1980 N....

Jack in the Pocket's TOP 10 ALBUMS of 2011
Let me break it down for you guys… I normally avoid making “Top” lists. First, because I suck at describing why one album is musically superior to another.  I’m the type of person who listens to something and I either love it or hate it.  I don’t enjoy analyzing their qualities. Music is so tightly wound with my identity, I find it almost impossible to be objective....

Bear in Heaven slowwwws doooooown the jaaaaaams
Original photo by Ed Luna, edited by Katie Pierce What do you get in an age of illegal downloading, stream rips, and a struggling music industry?  A beautiful, clever, entertaining, iron-clad album tease. Bear in Heaven has released an early, slow, and steady stream of their new record, I Love You, It’s Cool.  Catch is, it’s slowed to 400,000% below it’s normal speed. Leave...

Jack in the Pocket Recommends ...
On my roof… photo by Chip Willis It’s common knowledge that I am a total nut for live music.  Here is a list of shows coming up in Columbus, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Cincinnati that I recommend attending.  If I could clone myself and had a flying car I would be at all of these, but the bolded concerts are the ones that I will (or try my darnedest) to attend.  If you know of any...
