Lower East Side vet Mike Rimbaud took the name of his new band from a set of cute cartoon signs that reminded 50s commuters not to smoke or spit. But its that dingy, subterranean, through-the-grate kind of glow that informs his scruffy-voiced rock songs, invoking 70s Costello and Springsteen along with an improbable hint of Brazilthe Baiana guitar (a surfy-sounding electrified acoustic). (Kamenetz)
The Village Voice
Mike Rimbaud, in basic black, wielded an electric guitar in songs that were terse, telegraphic and propelled by urgent strumming. Mr. Rimbaud has a rocker's rasp in his voice, and he knows how to get the most power out of verses with few words. His songs crackle with New York's nervy paranoia.

Let's go underground...
Youre in a tunnel and there's no escape. That screeching noise you hear is no train; it's music, rock and roll. You feel upside-down, going downtown, but don't look in to the light! It's coming at you, fast on a local line. You don't need a metro card, because you just hopped the turnstile. Try to understand the voice from those speakers, since this next stop has a new rhythm and the strangers sitting across from you might start looking good. Hold on straphanger, because this is the dawn of the SUBWAY SUN

Hi there The Subway Sun first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.
Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't loose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
Thanks for adding us. Your support is much appreciated.
What do you think of these newly discovered crime scene photos (viewed at Abu-Jamal-News.com)?
I have been personally contacting every mainstream media person I could find and still the only place that has published the actual photo is the national Black newspaper, The SF Bay View (click here).
This is just the latest episode in a long history of corporate media bias (and arguably racism) towards Mumia and other political prisoners.

This specially compiled 4 CD Box Set from Time Life features the best Folk Rock songs from the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s and ’90s! Includes 71 Songs That Defined An Era and Influenced Generations... In Stores September 11
Not just another genre, folk rock was born as a statement—of purpose, of taste, of superiority—the baby boom’s first imprimatur, a musical mission and a personal battle cry in a divisive time of racial tension and escalating war. For a generation of philosopher dropouts and drug-inspired visionaries, it was also the best way to partake in the era’s hippest form of artistic expression, in numbers previously unknown to man.
