Singer/songwriter Robbie Fulks was i of the more heralded talents in the alternative state motion, displaying an offbeat, sometimes dark sense of humour in many of his topper moments. As time passed, Fulks stirred away from the country twang of his former work and into a crunchier roots rock loanblend. Fulks shared out his puerility betwixt Pennsylvania, Virginia, and North Carolina, and received his schooling at Columbia University. He moved to Chicago in 1983 and first base served as vocalist and guitar player in bluegrass band the Special Consensus, appearing on their Grammy-nominated 1989 album A Hole in My Heart. He after performed in the musical review Woody Guthrie's American Song and formed his possess rock striation, the Trailer Trash Revue, with whom he cut a topically popular undivided, "Short King" b/w "Dungaree Arthur."
Fulks got his first base substantial exposure via Bloodshot Records' 1994 compilation Guerilla Country, Vol. 1: For a Life of Sin, which included his track "Butt State"; the 1995 follow-up, Guerilla Country, Vol. 2: Hell-Bent, featured Fulks' "She Took a Lot of Pills (And Died)." Both cuts were produced by Steve Albini, world Health Organization also helmed Fulks' Bloodshot debut, Rural area Love Songs, in 1996. The album received highly electropositive reviews and featured financial support from roots bikers the Skeletons, as well as sometime Buck Owens steel guitar player Tom Brumley. The follow-up, South Mouth, took a similarly retro-minded approach shot, drawing from hellenic whitey tonk and Bakersfield country. With a growing cult reputation, Fulks earned a major-label shot with Geffen, just many critics felt that his 1998 label debut, Let's Kill Saturday Night, undermined the organic strengths of his premature work with too slick magazine roots tilt production. A merger 'tween Universal and PolyGram shortly after the release of Let's Kill Saturday Night light-emitting diode to a gutting of the Geffen artist roster, and the album died on the vine as Fulks establish himself without a label.
Fulks opted to start his have label, Boondoggle Records, distributed by his friends at Bloodshot, and launched it with The Very Best of Robbie Fulks, a jokingly titled compendium of demos and unreleased recordings. In 2001, Fulks followed with 13 Hillbilly Giants, in which he covered a bakers' 12 songs of the 1950s and '60s, and later that year he issued his about challenging set to date, Couples in Trouble, a bleak just compelling assemblage of original songs about a variety of flunk relationships that constitute Fulks adding new dimensions to his interest in rock and leftfield pop. In 2005, Fulks gestural to the roots-oriented Yep Roc label and dug back into his land roots with his first gear album for the judge, Georgia Hard. It was followed by the live compendium Revenge in 2007.

‘Battlestar Galactica’ Approaches Nerdgasm
Photo courtesy Sci Fi
As a serious remake of a campy seventies sci-fi show, Battlestar has defied expectations from the start. So it’s fitting that as we move closer to the big finale, this season is becoming something we never expected: a love story between two of its oldest characters.
Love Boat Galactica
In a continuation of last week’s episode, where Adama finally acknowledged how much he cares about Laura Roslin, we see what happened to the Cylon Basestar once the reconnected Hybrid jumped away with Roslin and Baltar and the other soldiers.
We’re still sick of dream sequences and visions (not to mention parallel realities), but the imaginary scenes of Roslin’s death were an acceptable way to show her realizing that she hearts Adama — and that protecting the fleet needn’t stifle her basic humanity. When she reunites with Adama, it's a four-hankie moment — the sort of emotional scene the show handles so well by underplaying it.
They Have a Plan
Now that D’Anna/Xena has been reactivated, the question on everyone’s mind is “Who colors her hair? It’s fabulous!” That and who the last of the Final Five is. A hat tip goes to the writers for the exchange where D’Anna responded to Roslin’s inquiry by acting as if she herself were one of the Five — and then mocking Roslin’s worry. It was a nice acknowledgment of the show's having become dominated by coy mysteries and big revelations. Or maybe when the producers were shooting they didn’t realize how the moment would at this point seem self-parodying.
D’Anna’s information makes a good bargaining chip, so we’re probably not going to find out who the last Cylon is for while. (We’re still going with Lee, by the way. But our favorite left-field prediction? Zak, Adama’s son, who died long before the show’s beginning.)
Roslin did, however, get a great morsel: Baltar’s admission that the destruction of the colonies owed to his sleeping with the enemy. Roslin considered just letting Baltar die from his stomach wound, and although the narrative played out a little too neatly — she figured her kindness would get her closer to learning the Final Five — it’s a plot point that’s clearly going to matter later. We’re an episode away from the mid-season hiatus, and things are really starting to get interesting. At last. —Tim Grierson
