In 1998, when Golden Smog released their second full-length album, Weird Tales, they were the premier supergroup of the alt-country movement, featuring key members of two of the scene's biggest acts, Wilco and the Jayhawks, as well as roots-friendly guitarist Dan Murphy from Soul Asylum. Eight years later, things are different for everyone involved with the band; alt-country never enjoyed the commercial breakthrough many were expecting, Wilco evolved into a noise-friendly prog-pop band, the Jayhawks got less twangy and more expressively hooky on the road to breaking up, Soul Asylum effectively dropped off the map for close to a decade, and 2006's Another Fine Day audibly reflects the many changes these musicians have gone through. Jeff Tweedy of Wilco is now easily the biggest name in this band, and significantly, he's more stingy with his time; his songwriting credits amount to two songs penned with Jayhawk Gary Louris, and he only appears on six of the disc's 15 tracks. However, the more adventurous musical palate that Wilco has embraced is certainly felt, with a veneer of tastefully applied noise noticeable on numbers such as Beautiful Mind and You Make It Easy. The real creative movers behind the album are former Jayhawks Marc Perlman, Kraig Jarret Johnson, and Gary Louris; they wrote the bulk of the material as well as dominating the instrumental credits, and their work here suggests a slightly more out there variation on the expressive pop textures of Sound of Lies and Smile. (Oddly, Listen Joe, which Louris wrote with Tweedy, more closely resembles the more subtle approach of Rainy Day Music.) In this context, Dan Murphy sounds more like a hired gun than anything else, though he's clearly simpatico with the other players and when he gets a chance to come to the forefront his rock gestures and well-controlled feedback are a welcome part to the band. One of the results of Tweedy's lesser degree of participation on these sessions is Another Fine Day sounds less scattershot and more unified than Golden Smog's earlier efforts, which makes sense since the core of this band had been working together for years, and the results seem less like a genially thrown-together side project than the work of a real band. The only drawback for fans is this Golden Smog doesn't bear much aural resemblance to the band that made Down by the Old Mainstream and Weird Tales; then again, the bands who make up Golden Smog's membership don't sound much like they did back then, either, so that shouldn't come as much of a surprise. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

I ain't got no sob story to write, Kate Voegele admits during A Fine Mess, a seasoned album that owes much of its success to One Tree Hill. After joining the show's cast in 2008, Voegele tackled the recurring role of Mia Catalano -- essentially a televised, aliased version of herself -- and used the opportunity to promote her own songs, many of which were woven into the episodes' plotlines. It was an invaluable introduction to an established TV audience, one whose affinity for photogenic actors and heartbroken drama neatly dovetailed with Voegele's music. Sales of her album appropriately spiked, and Voegele returned to the drawing board soon after, looking to strike while the iron was hot. Released in May 2009, A Fine Mess proves to be a fairly veteran production, performed with radio-minded gusto by the songwriter herself and, once again, promoted by a semi-biographical storyline on One Tree Hill. Voegele doesn't stretch her boundaries on these nine songs -- despite posing with an acoustic guitar in the album's liner notes, she only strums it during Manhattan from the Sky -- but she does write the material herself, helming the bulk of the tracks on her own and partnering with outsiders on two numbers. Despite those two collaborations, Voegele's own songs are the strongest ones here, particularly the alternative rocker 99 Times and the breezy, Nashville-influenced Talkin' Smooth. Her voice is similarly competent, perhaps a bit commonplace in its soulful inflections but agreeable nonetheless, and producer Mike Elizondo highlights the melodies with tight, tasteful arrangements. The only hang-up, then, is the fact that A Fine Mess isn't messy at all; rather, it wields the same combination of saucy strut and well-scrubbed pop/rock that we've heard on previous albums by Michelle Branch, Vanessa Carlton, and the like. That's good company for most aspiring songwriters, of course, but Voegele may need another few albums to distinguish herself from her predecessors. ~ Andrew Leahey, Rovi

Little Frog was living happily with his mom on the pond—just the two of them. Then some strange things began to happen: blobs of black spots appeared in the water, which grew squiggly tails and started swimming. Before too long it’s very clear: mom has a multitude of new frog babies. How will Little Frog ever cope?In his first picture book, author and artist Algy Craig Hall has crafted a gentle, charming, and witty story that shows exactly what it means to be a good big brother. Thoroughly delightful illustrations—many featuring a deluge of tiny frogs leaping, dancing, somersaulting, and flying across the page—add to the joy.

While Spalding Gray was a gifted actor who gave fine performances in the films TRUE STORIES, THE KILLING FIELDS and KING OF THE HILL, he was at his best playing himself, without a supporting cast. Gray was a master of the seriocomic monologue, and he rose to fame with a series of one-man-shows in which, seated behind a desk, he would speak at length about various events in his life -- his experiences making THE KILLING FIELDS in SWIMMING TO CAMBODIA, his struggle with writers block in MONSTER IN A BOX, and his health issues in GRAY'S ANATOMY. While Gray's performances were often quite funny, he didn't shy away from difficult subject matter, and never hesitated from revealing the painful side of his past and his own personal demons as he spun his tales before an audience or a camera. Filmmaker Steven Soderbergh worked with Spalding Gray on two pictures, and he's allowed his former collaborator to speak for himself in AND EVERYTHING IS GOING FINE, a documentary drawn from footage from Gray's monologues and inte

Hailed as one of the greatest Egyptian comedies of all time, EVERYTHING IS FINE stars Egyptian theatre legend Naguib El Rihany as Salama, a humble office clerk whose routine bank-deposit errand quickly evolves into the adventure of a lifetime. As in the early films of The Marx Brothers and other timeless screwball comedies of the 1930s, EVERYTHING IS FINE pokes fun at society's elite while taking viewers on a fast-paced comedic romp that will leave audiences of all ages feeling fine.

Golden Smog started in 1992 as a one-off project with the EP, On Golden Smog, followed by Down By the Old Mainstream in 1995 and 1998's Weird Tales. They have now returned after an eight year hiatus with the more-than-impressive album, Another Fine Day. Recorded mostly in Spain by Paco Loco, this album falls a little less alt-country and more on the power-pop side than previous releases. Melding the personality, musicianship and lyricism of these revered songwriters, Another Fine Day is an album of personal reflection and timeless optimism. It will find its way into your head, heart, and ultimately it will save the world.
