In Justice as fairness, then, the equal basic liberties are the same for each citizen and the question of how to compensate for a lesser liberty does not arise. But the worth, or usefulness, of liberty is not the same for everyone. As the difference principle permits, some citizens have, for example, greater income and [...]
Hello Handsome is the one-girl garage pop project of Sarah K. On her MySpace she lists influences from the TVPs to Sonic Youth. What I'm hearing on "Courting Song" are things like Cub, Bunnygrunt, and a little bit of Bratmobile. It's pretty solid grrrl pop and the totally fantastic, almost blues-y, lead-in to the song's finishing coda is surprising and pretty memorable – memorable enough for me to...

Reviewed by Daryl Loomis Quote: "Director Susan Dynner's documentary Punk's Not Dead captures the spirit of punk rock from its grass roots inception in the late '70s to its mainstream, Hot Topic current state."
The documentary film THE GITS has been confirmed for theatrical release on July 7 [today], the 15th memorial anniversary of death of lead singer Mia Zapata. For all you unfamiliar with the band of the same name, this is the...
Riot Grrrl was probably the ultimate zine-driven scene. While punk, for instance, threw up fanzines written by people who wanted to document the new music of the late 1970s, with riot grrrl the zines came first. Molly Neuman and Allison Wolfe, who formed key scene band Bratmobile , first put out Girl Germs zine in 1990. They then gave a name to the emerging movement with Riot Grrrl zine, the first...
On July 7, 1993, The Gits' fierce front woman Mia Zapata was raped, mutilated and murdered while walking home late at night in Seattle. Fifteen years later to the day, a rockumentary about the band will finally be released theatrically...
Two days of intensive writing has set my brain on fire. (I may never sleep again.) # Broke from writing for dinner & to hang w/ BFF & his sister, which meant being subjected to American Idol on DVR (which I’d not seen before) # …And all I have to say about the experience is, "Holy shit [...]

A-side: Huggy Bear’s “February 14″ featuring punk pioneer Allison Wolfe (Partyline and Bratmobile) B-side: Leonard Cohen's “Memories” with Allison Pierce (The Pierce)
Several things struck me tonight while I was watching the documentary "American Hardcore," including the rampant use of the f*** word by all of the old, retired punks interviewed and just how critical the 1980s hardcore punk movement was to...
I'm in love with chilly weather and I don't care who knows it! The title pretty much says it all, guys. I got my first breath of brisk Fall air today and I was ecstatic. I love more than anything in the world, I've been waiting months for it and I'm sure I'm not the only one. So that's why I made this mix. It's the essence of Fall, it's got lows and highs, acoustic guitars and fuzzy electric ones,...
Indie rock adorns this post of ‘Daily Digs’ with choice selections from Arab Strap, Band Of Horses, Now It's Overhead, The Pipettes & several more.
