Also the Love Pushers (Howard Wuelfing, Jim Testa, Jim DeRogatis) from Hanging Out at Midnight, but I mistakenly grabbed the album next to it off the shelf. I would have played Red Dark Sweet if I’d had anything to play. Ditto fanzine editor Shane McGowan, possibly, although probably not.

And Greg Tate’s Burnt Sugar (and isn’t former critic Vernon Reid in them). + Sasha Frere-Jones’s UI.

One album, produced by Mike Chapman….

Balm (aka Lauren Agnelli?) in a band that actually had a record or two out on a major label at some point?

Nervous Eaters, maybe? Saw them live once, and they weren’t horrible…

This, of course, isn’t counting musicians who tried their hand @ being critics.

Canadian MC Cadence Weapon, makes great music. He used to write reviews for Pitchfork, Stylus and probably others.

No Let’s Talk About Girls (or L-TAG, for short), not to mention the Motor City Mutants?
