 The Lo-Fi Threat
The biggest threats facing the rise of surf music are the proliferation of cover bands, the invasion of the no lyrics=surf bands, and lo-fi.
The no lyrics=surf bands are more dangerous because their product will be bought by folks getting their feet wet for the first time, and the resultant boredom in listening to melody-free backtracks will turn them off forever.
Bands would do themselves, the music, and us all a favor if they waited until they were really ready to record before doing so, and release only the best tracks they can muster, instead of the cheapest.

 Lo-Fi Sucks! - Temporary Burn-Out
Lo dimostra alla perfezione la splendida "No place like home", ballata piena di indolente magia, forse la canzone migliore di un disco eccellente.
Oppure si incontrano episodi che stanno giusto in bilico tra le due atmosfere, lo splendido rischiararsi del ritornello di "All beautifull angels", o il fascino di "Me and Nick Drake" (anche solo per quel titolo), essenziale prima della lunga coda rumorosa.
Nomi che servono più come punti di riferimento che altro, perché sia chiaro che la musica che sta su "Temporary burn-out", per il lavoro sui suoni, per come i brani arrivano diretti, per l'ispirazione che traspare in ogni traccia, è assolutamente personale.

The band came from Rio de Janeiro to play a couple of shows and we couldn´t even realise they were kinda tired after the long trip and the soundchecking: they were singing and dancing and playing like if it was the most special thing they´ve been doing for ages!
Surealy, Dangerfive records is such the perfect choise to people who, just like me, are tired of all those old guitar bands...

 Interview with Guided by Voices
The Dayton band has been around since the mid-80s, originally writing tunes reminiscent of classic rock bands such as Led Zeppelin and Cheap Trick and immortalizing them via a shitty four-track recorder.
That band is Guided by Voices, and the man behind it all is Bob Pollard.
Plus, more so now then ever, Guided By Voices is a band, and I want input from my band and I want to take my time on the songs and I want them to come across really well live, so we take a little bit more time [to prepare before recording].

 Tooting Our Own Horn
It seems as if so many bands have forgotten how significant it can be to use dissonance but the Mitchells make full use of it here and it works augmenting the song.
This is a pop band with bouncy rhythms and melodic vocals in a baritone range.
On the fourth song, "Giddy," the band shifts gears and gets spacey, revealing yet more layers of solid musicianship, intellectual wordplay, and pop edge one could only expect from more established bands whose names are continually dropped in only the most reverent of whispers.

 PopMatters Columns Pomo Audit Maim That Tune: The Moldy Peaches and the Apotheosis of Lo-Fi
One reason is obvious: lo-fi tunes foreground the song (more specifically, the lyrics) at the expense of technical mastery.
Listen to the classic singles of Louis Jordan, or the Mercury sides of George Jones, and you get a clear sense of a brilliant artist transcending an ill-rehearsed band and one-take studio technology.
The album is a crazy, loud, muddy mess, and you wonder what engineer John Brierly must have thought, since the record sleeve says "Many thanks to John Brierly for his trust".

Another interesting aspect of the band’s current marketing status is Nadine’s regular participation on the Postal Blowfish mailing list, informing the die-hard how the marketing effort is going (in very specific terms of what radio stations in what parts of the country are playing singles, etc.) and letting them know how they can help.
I used to love to find bootlegs of old ‘60s bands that were just outtakes and unreleased songs.
This solo/band split also became a problem with the band’s label, Matador, who thought flooding the market with Bob’s music could alienate fans who are trying to keep up, at the same time dilute the buying power of the potentially wider popular music audience.

 Lo-Fi Revolution
The fact that Mariah Carey and The Backstreet Boys sell millions of Records, and bands like Guided by Voices, Neutral Milk Hotel, and Superchunk barely can approach the 100,000 mark is proof enough of that.
This revolution is made up of Artists and Bands who are appalled at how the music industry is ruining music and stifling creativity.
There was a time in this world when (with only a little exception) those bands who were the best, got the most airplay, and bands who weren't that good, didn't make it.

More significantly, he had recently formed the ground-breaking rock band, Living Colour, an all-black heavy rock band that would eventually score a string of minor hits on rock radio.
However, indie rock was effectively launched when Nirvana broke into the mainstream along with several other bands, taking the "alternative" label with them, ironically enough.
Each of these golden ages was followed by an era of "re-alignment" in which creativity was replaced by sell-out, as the record industry (and commercial bands) capitalized on the innovations of the previous years.
