New 90s Episode
that dog. - Retreat from the Sun
The third record by that dog. almost didn't happen, but luckily Retreat From The Sun found the light of day loaded with fuzzy goodness.
The third album by that dog. album didn't happen. 1997's Retreat From The Sun was intended to be lead singer Anna Waronker's debut solo album, but after pressure from her record label, it turned into a full-band effort. The result might be the highlight of the that dog. catalog, and one of the best guitar pop albums of the decade. Three minute mid and uptempo radio-friendly tunes with enough grit and subtly layered instrumentation allow Retreat From The Sun to work on two levels - a catchy pop record for casual fans, and a headphone experience for those desiring a deeper listen. With the talented Hayden sisters on vocals and multiple instruments, the record manages to find the balance between crafted and fresh.

Fake Bands of the 90s
For our November roundtable, we're talking fiction! Movies and television shows in the 90s were full of bands or musical artists that were sometimes so good we wished they were real. The Lone Rangers, Citizen Dick, The Wonders, Wyld Stallyns, and Stillwater are just some of our favorite fake bands that we discuss.
