April 2000 :: Ink Spots :: Drive-By Truckers (Matt Thompson )
DRIVE-BY TRUCKERS by Matt Thompson The South of the Drive-By Truckers isn't necessarily a pretty one. It's full of battered women, malcontents and rogues, holier-than-thou preachers and sinners both at their lowest. Poor, illiterate dirt farmers fight and lose against encroaching urbanization while ...

February 2000 :: Ink Spots :: Captive Audience (Isaac Airbourne)
... adore porn queen Traci Lords' 1000 Fires album. It's the sort of dreamy, spooky techno that I love, and the album was produced by Babble (a.k.a. the Thompson Twins). People are always asking me, "If Traci Lords is so good, why hasn't she put out an album since 1995?" And my response is, "Sheesh! Hasn ...

"Play some Skynyrd!," you yell? OK, we'll oblige. Hal Horowitz takes a look back at the career of the Southern rock icons through the eyes of the new rarities collection, Lynyrd Skynyrd Collectybles.
... white-trash rockers without an ounce of innovation or intelligence (preferring to embrace the lunkheaded, skinny-tie likes of The Knack or The Thompson Twins), have had over 20 years to re-evaluate their opinion. Universal has certainly fought for the Skynyrd cause, not only revamping their albums, ...

Joel Dorn has "been there, done that" in jazz for over 40 years. Ben Varkentine finds out about Fathead, Les McCann and... Michael Jackson?
... in the '80s, so for me it's a lot of...the first stuff was like techno pop and synth music like that was coming out of England in the '80s, like the Thompson Twins, ABC and Human League. What about Joe Jackson? Funny you should mention that. Joe Jackson came a few years later (for me), but I am a huge ...

Bill Campbell gets the lowdown on remixing, the Philly sound and interesting names from King Britt.
... producing? Well, I was producing back in high school with the band. I started collecting keyboards when I first heard bands like Front 242 and The Thompson Twins. That’s funny, I went to an all-white high school around that time, and I couldn’t stand that music. I could only listen to hip-hop. Yeah ...

Secrets (Ark21). Review by Ben Varkentine.
... the disco. And the fact is that it could be either. Having made one of the three greatest albums of the '80s techno-pop era with Dare in 1981 (The Thompson Twins and ABC made the other two), the League embarked on a five-year string of hits that stand as excellent singles, influential to this day. But ...

Tron: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Disney). Review by Ben Varkentine.
... of music I will one day call my favorite is nearing a peak -- The Human League have already released Dare, ABC's The Lexicon of Love is out, The Thompson Twins' Into The Gap is a couple of years away. But I don't care about any of that then. So I go to see the movie Tron, a new Disney film with groundbreaking ...

... teendom, and in a larger way, the sound of "alternative music" that followed. Flesh for Lulu, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Psychedelic Furs, the Thompson Twins and Simple Minds are represented here, as interpreted by the Bonaduces, Ninety Nine, Speedbuggy, Ciao Bella and b'ehl, respectively. Each band ...

October 1999 :: Live Ink :: Howard Jones (Rhoda Koss)
... that still purveys retro lunch hours, dance clubs, and "new music" stations around the country today. Howard Jones, along with artists like the Thompson Twins, Thomas Dolby, Talking Heads, Blondie, and many others here and in the UK fed us good party music. The yang to punk's yin. If the world is ...

Auto : Matic (Omega). Review by Ben Varkentine.
... pop would rise in a euphoric crescendo and cover the whole earth. Okay, so maybe it was only me who expected that to happen (I really liked the Thompson Twins' Into The Gap), but I'm not alone in knowing that some of the groups of that era deserved better than to be declared utterly disposable. Venus ...
