1976 album, Station to Station, including the double CD
Live at Nassau Coliseum ‘76 concert as an additional bonus.

""Are you depraved or, or are you deceived?"" Lead singer Stephen
Christian's words evoke those daily, indefatigable thoughts which
examine our own sense of self. Dark is the Way, Light is a
Place is the title that just barely skims the surface of the
album's instrumental and lyrical intensity. Anberlin, an American
alternative-rock band formed in 2002, takes emotional pain and
prosperity to an innovative, avant-garde level. With comparisons to
major bands such as Jimmy Eat World, Taking Back Sunday and New
Found Glory, Anberlin's fifth studio album encapsulates the classic
sound of punk-influenced alternative, galvanizing the repressed
depths of your psychological inquisitions.

A 32-year-old Canadian with a doctorate in mathematical studies
certainly doesn't sound like someone who can throw a dance party.
But that's exactly who Dan Snaith is, and with Swim,
Caribou's fifth full-length album, that's exactly what he does.

If an album can serve as a pathway into an artist's mind, then
El Capitan Del Sol reveals Thomas Grathwol's brain to be
an extremely warped and psychotic organ. This is Grathwol's first
album under the moniker TASRU. From the dreamlike synthesizer on
opening track ""Rude Awakening"" to the extraterrestrial bass that
concludes ""Yamanashi Dub,"" El Capitan Del Sol sends its
listener on an aural journey through a strange and intriguing world
in a mere 37 minutes.

As we are introduced to Raquel, the titular character of ""The
Maid,"" she is sitting alone in the nook of a kitchen, eating in
silence as the family she works for puts the finishing touches on a
birthday celebration. As their stifled laughs echo over the kitchen
counter, Raquel looks up and for a moment stares directly into the
camera, breaking the fourth wall and momentarily sharing with the
audience all of the oddly affectionate animosity she feels for her
employers.

Many die-hard Lifehouse fans and music buffs alike remember the
2001 hit single ""Hanging by a Moment"" from the band's debut
album, No Name Face. Back then, the members of
Lifehouse—original members Rick Woolstenhulme Jr. and Jason
Wade—were unrecognizable faces. Now, nine years after the band's
first big hit, Lifehouse is a household name.

Suppose the Beach Boys' Brian Wilson, a group of African tribal
drummers and a Mexican folk group were put in a recording studio
together. The end result might be something close to the sound of
the Ruby Suns' 2008 release, Sea Lion. From the shimmering
glockenspiel on ""Kenya Dig It?"" to the thumping ukuleles on ""Oh,
Mojave,"" the Ruby Suns defined themselves with their global
approach to sunny pop. This approach directly stemmed from the Ruby
Suns' vocalist and songwriter Ryan McPhun—a guy who relocated from
his hometown in California to form the Ruby Suns in New Zealand—and
his knack for exploration.

Wisconsin women's hockey head coach Mark Johnson might be
thousands of miles away coaching Team USA at the 2010 Vancouver

Like a lot of Canadians, sophomore forward Carolyne Prevost and
junior forward Mallory Deluce feel a great sense of national pride
during the Vancouver Olympics and want to see their country do
well. Unlike a lot of their countrymen, however, Prevost and Deluce
have some close ties to players on the other side of a border that
divides two countries and creates one of the best rivalries in
hockey.

The Badgers have lost six games this year, and heading into
Saturday's contest, had rebounded from each of the first five
defeats with wins the next time out. So when Wisconsin played host
to a struggling Indiana squad just four days after suffering a
63-56 home loss to Illinois, head coach Bo Ryan had some simple
words.
(02/12/10 6:00am)
Coming off a weekend that saw two very different performances
from the Badgers against Bemidji State, the No.10 Wisconsin women's
hockey team looks to have a big weekend against another WCHA rival,
Minnesota State, as points become increasingly crucial.
