Missed Miscellaneous Masterpieces
Miscellaneous Masterpieces: Miracle Legion – Drenched
Rarely do any acts trace their roots to Connecticut, but that’s exactly where Miracle Legion found its home throughout the ’80s and ’90s. The college-based rock band would eventually be known for its work with Nickelodeon’s The Adventures of Pete & Pete (under the pseudonym Polaris), but their one commercial album, Drenched, should not go [...]
Miscellaneous Masterpieces: John Fahey – The Yellow Princess
John Fahey was a man of few words. At least spoken ones, anyway. Throughout his forty-two-year career as an instrumental folk guitarist, he wrote thirty albums’ worth of liner notes, a master’s thesis on Charley Patton, and How Bluegrass Music Ruined my Life, a collection of short stories.

Kevin Morpurgo, Mike Morpurgo, Carl Hinds, and Dante Cimino, also known as Dandelion, were stuck on the east coast going [...]
Miscellaneous Masterpieces: Sharon Stoned – License to Confuse
The Germans have always had some kind of influence on American pop-culture. We have seen the musical influences of Krautrock flourish outside of its native country, as well as its weight on industrial and metal to name a few genres. What we tend to forget, however, is what the musicians from this country are still [...]
Missed Miscellaneous Masterpieces: Mark Mulcahy – Fathering
Consequence of Sound would like to welcome new writer, Matt Melis, who is writing his own new feature, “Missed Miscellaneous Masterpieces.” Each month, I delve into both my record collection and the miscellaneous sections of my favorite record shops to recommend an artist and album that might be missing from your playlists. After you’re done [...]
