The Album Crawl

Ready to get laid back and chilled out? Maybe not as much as you think on Washed Out's Third album Mister Mellow. Crawl with us this week as we wade through the relaxing but sometimes murky water of this psychadellic chill hop masterpiece. 

It's wrestlemania week here at the Album Crawl as we put two 70's rock albums head to head in our first ever Album Clash! On this inaugral episode we see Queen's A Night the Opera go against AC/DC's High Voltage. Its the battle of high vs low production and you'll have to listen to hear the winner!

One powerful voice. Sometimes that's all you need to carry a whole album. With Etta James' biggest album that is exactly what happens, and we enjoy every second of it. Crawl with us this week as we get swept away in the beautiful covers done by Etta and we both learn what a torch singer is. 

Epic choruses! Sweeping Atmosphere! Layers and layers of acoustic! This week were going through the blockbuster Tom Petty solo Album Full Moon Fever. Crawl with us to see how Paul and James tackle one of the kings of Heartland Rock, it's a good one!

OHHHHH OHHH YEAAAAHHHH. Did I sound like Valli there? I think I hit the note just like him. 

Crawl with us this week as Frankie Valli and the four seasons attempt to stay contemporary in a late period '67 album. We have a lot of fun on this one. Crawl with us!

We're talking guitar hooks. We talking snarky lyrics. We're talking the distance from Hunter's Bar to San Francisco. It's Arctic Monkeys week here on The Album Crawl and were excited to go through their debut album, Whatever People Say I am, That's What I'm Not. 

Funky synth. Funky Bass. Lanky dance moves. Not sure what else you could possibly need in life. This week we do our first back to back with the Talking Heads fifth album Speaking in Tongues. Crawl with us!

Buildings! Food! What more could you need? This week we do a silly walk like I imagine David Byrne would do through the Talking Heads' second album, More Songs About Buildings and Food. 

It's big! It's a band! It's Quincy doing Bossa Nova! This week we are continuing on an international trip (sort of ) with Quincy Jones' album Big Band Bossa Nova. We try something new with commenting right along with the album and have a ton of fun along the way. Crawl with us!!

Ever wake up early on a spring morning, go on a walk, and just don't know what to listen to? Well Paul and James are here to solve that problem. Listen this week as we pick our favorite songs to fit that exact mood.
