Midnight Juggernauts: Changing Things One Beat at a Time: Sentimentalist Magazine Online Exclusive
Australian acts have historically had a harder time getting exposure than their north of the equator counterparts, so it’s fitting that futuristic electro-rock Melbourne trio Midnight Juggernauts are changing things.
Matt Costa’s Next Step: Sentimentalist Magazine Online Exclusive
Skate or die dude! A piece of Matt Costa literally had to perish in order for the folk popster we all know today to take shape. He was a few steps away from going pro until he shattered his leg and retreated to his Huntington Beach bedroom with a 4-track and an acoustic guitar.
What’s CMJ? Crashin’ In and Sentimentalist Magazine Party 10.19.07
Our friends at Crashin’ In had the fabulously insane idea of putting on a marathon-of-a-party during CMJ week. Naturally, we had to be a part of it. We had some of the top bands in town from near and far playing on our tiny(ish) Galapagos stage. Foals, Jay Reatard, Foreign Born, Blackstrap, Chairlift, […]

Athlete: Beyond the Comfort Zone: Sentimentalist Magazine Online Exclusive
It’s a gray, wet day and Athlete’s lead singer/guitarist Joel Pott has just come home after getting completely doused. He recently moved into a new house in the London suburb of Brockley, which is just a short walk from the band’s new studio where they recorded their gracefully anthemic third album, Beyond the Neighbourhood. The […]
Shocking Pinks: None too Shocking: Sentimentalist Magazine Online Exclusive Interview
I met with Mr. Nick Harte in the Astralwerks offices, which, as a label slowly learning to be a distribution company, is learning how to play the part with a reception area on par with a dentist’s office and an artist’s lounge replete with pool table chillingly covered in plastic… Nick Harte sat rigidly on […]
Schoolyard Heroes : Sentimentalist Magazine Online Exclusive Interview
When I was in high school, I had this good friend Gabe who would sometimes drive me home in his beat-up Honda Civic, blasting the Cramps and the Misfits through the streets of sleepy Tallahassee, Florida. We would talk at length about his obsession with Glenn Danzig, and I would natter on and on about […]
Rasputina: Toxicodendron Radicans
Toxicodendron radicans. Poison-ivy. Sure, you’ve seen someone with a poison-ivy rash, right? But have you ever really seen a really, really, really bad poison ivy rash? Where arms and fingers look more like charred meat and sausage links? Have you? No?
Well then, if you’d had the opportunity to see Melora Creager of Rasputina last […]
Genesis P-Orridge: Redesigner of Civilization
All right, listen up people! Genesis P-Orridge has something he wants to get off of his 38D chest.
That’s right s/he’s got 38D breasts and his/her other half and band mate Lady Jaye P-Orridge has had identical breast implants and chin implants, eye surgeries, silicon lip injections and a nose job to match Genesis’. Their plan […]
Luke Pritchard of The Kooks, Sound Fix, Brooklyn 8.26.07 : Sentimentalist Magazine Review
(Luke Pritchard)
Man and his music, the Bob Dylan comparisons abound from his moppish unkempt floppy locks to his nearly unintelligible, slurred quips between songs; then there’s the music and his voice. This was the third time in about a year I’ve seen Luke Pritchard of UK’s The Kooks perform a solo acoustic […]
