Considine’s Corner

These are two of this week’s New Releases we’ve chosen to review in the inimitable style of defunct Musician magazine’s J.D. Considine’s Short Takes page.

THE FIERY FURNACES Widow City (Thrill Jockey)
Hipster pin-up and her brother release latest snooze fest. [yawn]

KID ROCK Rock n Roll Jesus (Atlantic)
With Skynyrd and Seger filling in for Abraham and Moses, right? We’d rather be atheists.
