Musings: A Look at August 2003 Releases
Well, now...it looks as though
the dog-days of summer are going to be filled with some new music from
a number of Tollbooth faves. Starting off the month of August we'll
have new releases from Juliana Theory (a live disc) on August 5th, as well
as a new Ween disc. Then on August 12th it's the long-awaited new
disc from Dashboard Confessional, as well as one from Neil Young, which
he calls "a musical novel." On August 19th you'll want to check out
the new double-cd release from Over the Rhine, and then on August 26th
look for a solo release from Bill Mallonee, and the final album from the
legendary Warren Zevon (featuring an all star cast of musicians).
Also out that day are new releases from MXPX, Innocence Mission, Josh Rouse,
and the Rock & Roll Worship Circus.
