This week, vocalist/songwriter...etc Michael Wiener (The Children...) brings us Chicago's Red Red Meat and their 1993 Sub Pop release 'Jimmywine Majestic'. With singer/songwriter Tim Rutili's - later of Califone - impressionistic lyrics and the band's fuzzed-out bluesy swagger, it's a dark, menacing ride indeed.
