Tracks of the Week: Guitars
My Bloody Valentine "Map Ref 41° N 93° W" - The sound of guitars. Lots and lots of guitars. In the vein of MBV's utterly gorgeous Loveless, this track is a cover of a Wire song. And a beautiful cover at that. Swirling guitars and catchy melodies, the chorus will be stuck in your head for weeks. Buy It.
Bright "Point" - Bright's one of my favorite Boston bands. Their tight guitar work brings to mind groups of the Krautrock era. Fans of Sonic Youth would also dig this. I go back to this album once or twice a year and each time it's a refreshing listen. What a deal: It's 10 bucks from their label "Ba Da Bing!" Ba Da Bing! Ba Da Boom! Buy It.
