Joel Frieders

Joel Frieders woke up three salmon streams by merely emitting a low frequency squelch out of his thyroid. We hope he continues with such impressive feats of science, because he for sure needs help in the tattoos of fruits in precarious situations category. Rob Campobasso for Athlete of the Month. If cream of tartar isn't actually creamy, then why the hell am I so meteor showered? Is it any wonder. IS IT ANY WONDAAAA!

Album Review

Big Mean Sound Machine - Contraband

Joel Frieders | October 5, 2014
There's this bank me and my kids pass every day on the way to school. The few times they've gone with me through the drive-thru, for routine financial actions bros, they've acquired a Dum-Dum of varying flavors bros. But the flavors of high fructose corn...

Caribou - Our Love

Joel Frieders | September 30, 2014
Caribou's new album has put me in almost a dozen precarious situations so far. Like getting caught masturbating by the neighbor girl you've been sucking in your gut around since junior high, or getting peeped smelling scented lotions at Bath...

Starcadian - Saturdaze

Joel Frieders | September 25, 2014
I remember the first time I saw Vision Quest. Besides nosebleeds and singlet crotch bulges, what the movie taught me most was that wearing a garbage bag was a necessity when trying to make weight. Also, if you put some serious synths and some partially cheesy...

Angus & Julia Stone - Self Titled

Joel Frieders | September 17, 2014
Let it be known that prior to listening, I knew nothing, and still consider myself one who knows nothing about Angus and Julia Stone. I don't know whether I should know them for any particular reason, but I get the feeling I should know who...

Escape To New York - A Long Time Between Monsters

Joel Frieders | September 10, 2014
Normally, if I'm going to describe a band as "reverby" I'm not necessarily using it as a compliment. I'm the grumpy old asshole that thinks relying on a guitar effect for every song is gimmicky, cheap, a cop out, a essentially a band aide to hide the reality...

Duologue - Never Get Lost

Joel Frieders | September 9, 2014
My experiences with Duologue are pretty specific. While not in actual situation, but feeling, their delivery is both creeped the Fuck out and desperate as fuuuuuck. I can always remember how I feel when their music is shooting through my head...

World Premiere: THEE OOPS in Asia! - Mini-Doc

Joel Frieders | September 4, 2014
Before Tim Baker left SYFFAL to pursue his interpretive dance degree from the University of Phoenix, he gave me two things to remember: 1. Never leave Del alone with an apple-corer and access to wifi. and more importantly, 2. THEE OOPS is the...

World Premiere: We Were Astronauts - Music City

Joel Frieders | September 2, 2014
I know nothing about WeWereAstronauts. Bro, I only know what I know bro, and what I know bro has nothing to do with WeWereAstronauts bro. Welp, I should mention that lately I've been waking up in the middle of the night with...

This Patch of Sky - Self Titled

Joel Frieders | September 2, 2014
I've never made any attempt at hiding my arousal for instrumental music. After having been in band upon band upon band, I always seemed to appreciate the unabashed joy I felt when there was no attempt at vocalizing anything. When communication took a turn for...

One Song: DAMEHT - Girl Jeans

Joel Frieders | August 26, 2014
Whoever the Fuck DAMEHT are, they're fucking KILLING me with this Girl Jeans track. At first I thought I was listening to a smooshwich of The 1975 and The Neighborhood, but without the "the", ALLS I HEARS IS THE FRESHIES. Seriously,...
