Even though the Echo stops running from the end of June until the end of summer, I’ve been hard at work, listening to music, studying other reviews and writing. Part of the pleasure of music to me is writing about it. So I figured, rather than post online material throughout the summer, I could just put my opinions on all the music I’ve been listening to this summer into a couple very long articles. Part two will come at the beginning of the school year.

How many of you still have to go to the Academic Advising Center? A lot of students do.

So when a space opened in the Student Center, she and the rest of the Board of Regents jumped at the chance to put it there.

Imagine a United States of America without crime. Imagine our country with an employment percentage higher than Steve Nash’s career free throw percentage (90.42 percent as of today). Now imagine working in customer service and knowing that for one day out of the year, you could legally murder every cheap, ignorant idiot that stiffs you out of a tip on a $200 bill. The key to this utopian United States with rock bottom crime rates and sky high employment rates is that for one day out of the year any and all crime is legal. You can murder, steal, loiter or even solicit next to “no-soliciting” signs.

With a new My Bloody Valentine album, a new Replacements EP and a new David Bowie album, it became clear early on in 2013 that this was going to be a year full of comebacks. What’s followed has been a barrage of albums from artists you wouldn’t expect to see dominate 2013.

Comprised of anti-folk singer-songwriter Kimya Dawson and indie rapper Aesop Rock, The Uncluded have been my favorite new band of 2013 since I first heard their album, “Hokey Fright.” So when I heard they were performing in Detroit on June 5, I had to go.
