Baby Scream - Greatest Failures

Baby Scream is a project from Argentina led by Juan Pablo Mazzola - and to say it with his own words:

"Baby Scream…what is all about? A band from Argentina, weird chords, pop songs, Beatles, greatest friends, worst friends, a lot of comedy, a lot of drama, Fender gear, Marshall gear, a lot of cigarettes, red wine, Santa Monica beach, cheap recordings, fancy recordings, solo acoustic gigs, Hare Krishna musicians, a solo act from London, Power Pop, Cheap Trick, the winter, the spring, the summer, the fall, Identity Theft, really nice people, really fucked up people, late hours, life in general..."

Juan Pablo Mazzola

Baby Scream released Greatest Failures, their best-of collection in November 2013 (nice title for a best-of, is it?).
Greatest Failures may be a great start for those who don't know Baby Scream (you can listen to the record below).
If you even sligthly care for David Bowie, Bob Dylan, The Beatles or E.L.O. you really may like this record.

Great songs to start: Aching Eyes, Exile, Mars, Jekyll & Hyde

Jason Falkner - Biography & Discography

After the success of the first record ( Bellybutton ) he left the band and said he'll be never again a band member again (where he was clearly wrong). His solo career started in 1996 with Presents Author Unknown , followed with the fabulous Can You Still Feel? . I recommend to listen to Can You Still Feel? from start to finish - there's no filler song, no low point. 2001 was a good year for loyal fan...

Rooney - Kids After Sunset (The Lost Album): Interview with Taylor Locke & Ned Brower (Bandmates from Rooney)

Bandmates Taylor Locke and Ned Brower took the time to talk about a special chapter in the history of Rooney : the "lost" second album, Kids After Sunset ! I reached out to both of them separately and asked if they could answer a few questions - check it out below. Over the past 20 years, aplenty songs from this album surfaced online and were shared through blogs, fans, and social media. These were mostly demos or low-quality recordings, but in 2024, a seemingly final version of the album appeared on the internet! Kids After Sunset - cover art concept PPS: Around 2004, Rooney recorded a significant number of songs for their intended second album, Kids After Sunset - at least twenty-five tracks, as far as I know. The plan was for most of these songs to be included on the album. However, it is said that the record label rejected nearly all of them, claiming they didn’t like any of the tracks, and instructed the band to start from scratch with a completely new album. I...
