Wake up Call Show

Wake up Call Show

We need to hold legislatures accountable when they do wrong and break the rules and sham the people. We should not reward them. How can you reward Gov Palin in the wake of troopergate and the dishonesty and unethical behaviour. Are we looking for trouble? You would trust her to run this country when she has been found guilty of corruption while serving as Governor in the State of Alaska? How can you trust Mccain when he was one of the five senators involved in the Keaton Scandal that cost taxpayers, governemnt lots of money and cost countless of people thier retirement, and livlihood. People suffered as a result of Mccain's good old boy scandal. We should not allow thies crooks into the White house when they have already proven to us from past experiences how they have put this country last not first. How can we be so blinded by the cameras, action, the act of those who only use polished words and lies, hatred to destroy us. We have seen in the past through the civil rights era the hatred and divisiveness that was used by wicked men and now this similiar strategy being used by Mccain/Palin to instigate this same national terrorism. Just listen careful and you well see that Mccain does not fall far from that tree. Our economy is unstable and as if that wasn't enough now Mccain and Palin continues to ensue aggression and instigate anger, and fear where lunatics, radicals scream out hateful rederick to destablize our national security. Then to add insult to injury Mccain turns around and acts like he is being victimize after being called on the carpet about his hatred and irresponsibilty to host decent political campaigns. Palin cant even maintain control at these rallies nevermind this country. People are screaming out Kill Obama at these rallies like a 60s lynch mob. Instead of Mccain/Palin denounce or utilizing thier security he commend these individual and praises them during his debate tonight. What bigots, and how disgusting. These two do not represent America or country first. Palin should go back to Alaska and keep hanging out with her buddies Bill Ayers and Steve Stalle, and we will talk more about Mccains connection on the Wake Up Call show shortly. No apology should be given by Obama or Senator Lewis. We have to start acting like the head and not tail. You dont see Mccain apologizing for nothing no matter how wrong. We can talk about flag pins on one hand, call out Michelle Obama and host baby daddy talks, where is Michelle Malkin now on the Palins daughter baby daddy drama. We need to respect ourselves and stop always trying to go along get along when we know these folks are dead wrong. Why do we need thier approval? One thing I will say about Joe Biden has been dead on point and in your face with truth. More time and talk needs to be devoted towards the issues that American are facing with healthcare, outsourcing of american jobs, environment, alternative energy, etc. Mccain should be ashamed of ever speaking of himself as a hero. He does not represent America. He represents terrorist. Furthermore no more questions need to be asked about the citizenship of Obama who by the way was born in Hawaii and Mccain in the Panama Canal. Hawaii is one of our 52 by the way just like ALASKA. How about Panama Canal? Last time I checked that wasnt part of american soil. I am sure citizenship was addressed when SENATOR Obama ran for senate. Have some respect people. Those of you that cant see through Mccain/Palin probally couldnt see anything wrong with separate toilets, separate water fountains or the term "that one" as a human being was sold like cattle. Quite faking the funk if your mind and heart was really open minded and right you would see the spirit Hitler in the body of Mccain. I say keep Hitler/Mccain out of power

    Patrick Droney – The Other Side

    Life just isn’t fair.

    When you’re a fifteen year old boy, you’re supposed to be out playing stick ball, sneaking off behind the bleachers with your high school honey, and playing some interactive video game with a kid of similar age in Belgium. When you’re fifteen, you’re not supposed to be releasing your first album of guitar oriented rock tunes. Nor are you supposed to be two years removed from being awarded the Robert Johnson Star Award for being the country’s most promising blues player. Someone forgot to tell Patrick Droney all of this.

    In my hot little hands, I hold a copy of The Other Side. Not knowing anything about our young master Droney other than he was some blues protégée, I expected this album to be a straight up blues burner. But what I got was something so much more fascinating. The Other Side fits more comfortably alongside something from 3 Doors Down or label mates, Miggs, than your classic blues artists. However, with that being said, Droney can whip out the blues with the best of them. One part rocker, one part ballad, one part blues, throw in a touch of metal muscle and you have the album that made The Delta Mud Skipper peer over his copy of the Blues Review and take notice. That, my friends, should be enough for you to drop everything and track this sucker down! But please . . . continue reading. My feelings might get hurt if you don’t.

    Thursdays at Pooch's Place - Journey - Revelation

    If they've done nothing else with this release then Journey have re-written the book on how to introduce a new lead singer and re launch a career. Whilst their late 70's/early 80's peers seem stuck in a never ending loop of Greatest Hits packages and live DVDs Journey have certainly turned a more impressive trick by using those tools but only as "bonus material" to encourage the buying of the new album. That they're lumped it all together in a package priced so cheaply it actually makes more sense to buy it rather than download everything is even more credit to them.

    Of course, the actual discovery of new singer Arnel Pineda on the internet has brought it's fair share of coverage in itself, and whilst the DVD shows him not yet the complete frontman, looking a little awkward at times, it proves his competence for the role and makes for a good introduction to the revitalized line-up who, to be fair, seem to be enjoying the renewed spotlight. That he was picked mainly, if not completely, thanks to his voice's uncanny resemblance to "classic era" lead singer Steve Perry is also well documented and an eleven track bonus compact disc of re-recorded songs merely reinforces Pineda's credentials. It also can't do the overall campaign any harm for a disc full of well known tracks featuring the new frontman to land on desks in radio-land can it?

    Attack! Attack! UK - S/T


    Genres come and genres go, but true talent remains.

    Back when I was DJ back at KSPC FM, I always loved it when a band came along and found a way to breathe new life into a genre that had grown moribund and stale. In some ways Husker Du did this with punk. Jesus and the Mary Chain did it with post-punk doom and gloom. The Cult did it for psychedelic hard rock and now we have Attack! Attack! UK, forcing the corpse of pop/punk to suddenly convulse and draw a fresh breath.

    Hailing from Wales, Attack! Attack! UK bring a fresh dose of enthusiasm, a lorry load of hooks and an entire factory's worth of Red Bull to the pop/punk world, keeping a keen eye towards the past and avoiding all the annoying contrivances of emo. In short, this is a rapid fire attack of punchy, high-NRG rock, just begging to take the world by storm. And judging by their touring schedule and concert mates they're playing with, it seems the boys are already well on the way to doing just that.

    Tuesday's Zen - Four Dead in Ohio

    Ok waveriders, we've got a new and special treat for you. Always on the lookout for new music, we've partnered up with a couple of websites to offer you the biggest and best selection of music to satisfy your appetite.


    As many of you know, we've had a long association with our good friends over at peacedogman.com, a fine purveyor of all that is heavy, punky and crusty. Check out their links often to see what Head Dog Mark finds next over there. He's got an amazing crew of talented writers besides himself gathered under one roof, like Death Metal Douglas, Russ Cardona, Two Tub Tony, Mark Micheals, Tom Murtaug, Bill "Rock of Ages" Leslie, Finland's Devamitra Porceddu, and our buddy from The Small Takeover, Chris Carr. Heck, you can even hang out in the forum and chat with Ripple favorites, the JPT Scare Band. From features, to interviews, to reviews, there's no end to the peacedog madness and you can lose yourself for days on end exploring it's many corners. We're starting Thursdays at Pooch's Place to keep you posted of some of the new peacedog discoveries.



    Now, to expand the musical horizons of what we know and love, and to add a decidedly British flavor to the music we ripple, we're starting a new feature courtesy of British music blogger extraordinarie Winston. Check him out at Winston's Zen to get the full flavor of all that this maniac culls from the U.K. music scene, but each Tuesday, we'll be running a featured Winston's Zen review, bringing you the word on a new, undiscovered, up-and-coming U.K. band that you need to keep your eyes open for. Called Tuesday's Zen, come back and check often to see what the Zenster discovers next.





    To start things off from Winston, welcome to Four Dead in Ohio

    Rumors Heard in MySpace, Episode 9

    Well, here we are again, my friends. Sifting through the constant barrage of information that flutters across my screen, via the MySpace phenomenon, could seriously be a full time job. However, it doesn’t pay well enough. Heck, nothing these days is paying all that well. Have y’all been watching the stock market? Here’s a tip for all of the entrepreneurs out there, or anyone who’s 401k took a massive hit. The trampoline business. What you do is, take this typical backyard physical catastrophe waiting to happen, and lug it to every financial district that you can think of. Strategically position the trampoline under the windows of the CEO’s of these institutions and wait. These lug nuts who have driven the country’s economy into the crapper will eventually pitch themselves out the windows, right into the waiting elasticity of your trampoline. Sure, you could sit back and watch them plummet to their deaths, but wouldn’t it be more satisfying to get your hands on them after they’ve bounced safely back to terra firma? Just a random thought from your friendly neighborhood Pope. Enough of this banter . . . on with the report!

    A Sunday Conversation With Trettioariga Kriget

    After thirty years of creating sonically lush and emotionally charged music, Trettioariga Kriget are preparing to release their first double live album to the world. Tearing himself from his busy schedule, bassist and lead spokesman for the band, Stefan Fredin made himself comfy on the Ripple interview couch and gave us the low down on the bands approach to songwriting, the new live album, and on stage mishaps.


    When I was a kid, growing up in a house with Cat Stevens, Neil Diamond, Johnny Mathis, Perry Como, and Simon & Garfunkle, the first time I ever hear Kiss's "Detroit Rock City," it was a moment of musical epiphany. It was just so vicious, aggressive and mean. It changed the way I listened to music. I've had a few minor epiphany's since then, when you come across a band that just brings something new and revolutionary to your ears.

    What have been your musical epiphany moments?


    My defining musical moment without any comparance washearing The Beatles "She loves you"...only 10 years oldat the time it was like suddenly discovering a new worldfull of colours and hope and joy....nothing was the same after that...And where would we all be today if The Beatles had not laid the foundations for pop/rock as we know it today...Of course later in the 60s there were some other mind openingalbums showing that the boundaries of rock could and should be broken...The Doors 1st album, Disraeli Gears-Cream, Are You Experienced? - Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelins 1st album, Ummagumma - Pink Floyd and last but not least In the Court of the Crimson King - King Crimson . . another very important album for me was "Touch"..Touch was a very underrated American band..they only made one album....but what an album...a complete masterpiece!! Highly recommended.

    Siena Root - Far From the Sun

    Come with me, oh waverider, into Professor Racer's incredible, stupendous wayback machine. That's it over there, the one shaped like a road-worn blue and white VW bus, but trust me, that's all part of the ambiance of where we're going. Today, we're turning the dials way to the left, scooting right past the eighties all the way to the seventies. And just for the fun of it, let's give it a little extra turn and see where that lands us.

    I'll tell you where, smack dab in the middle of the amazing world of Siena Root.

    While most rock retro-ists/psych revisionists set their sights on the mid seventies to find inspiration for their muse, Siena Root bypass most of the post-Sabbath inspired proto-metal, turn on their lava lamps with gobs of green bubbling fluid and bring us right back to the dawn of the decade. Shades of the '60's still lingering through their beautiful, at times ferocious, always mesmerizing retro-psych rock.
