Everclear Show Focuses On Second, Third Albums

The Mod Club is poor at letting people know about opening acts and set times on its website and in its advertisements. So when I arrived just after 9 p.m. and was told Tracy Lyons was on stage, Paper Tongues would follow and Everclear wouldn't go on until after 10:30, I beat a retreat across the street to Metro to buy some groceries.

Everclear — In A Different Light

When I was younger, I'd watch MuchMusic waiting for videos of songs I liked to come on so I could record them on blank VCR tapes. I came across one of these tapes while moving a couple years ago and watched it for fun. Everclear's "Wonderful" must have been on there at least five or six times. Nine years later, the band have...

Everclear — The Vegas Years

I saw Everclear at Toronto's Horseshoe Tavern in the early '90s and thought they were a great live band. Sparkle And Fade came out and "Santa Monica" became a huge hit in 1995, and that momentum continued through 1997's So Much For The Afterglow. Two separate volumes of Songs From An American Movie followed in 2000, and 2003's Slow...

Everclear: "Jesus Was A Democrat"

Art Alexakis, frontman for California alt.rockers Everclear, has written a song lashing out at right-wing Christians. The song, dubbed, "Jesus Was A Democrat," is streaming on the Everclear website and is also available for free download. The lyrics are also available on the website.  I wonder what Ted Nugent thinks.

Everclear's Art Alexakis Starts From Scratch With A Little Help From Jesus

There's a new side of Jesus that we haven't seen before, the one that smokes, drinks, gambles, knocks over baby strollers and dances with strippers. These antics, and more, are featured in the video for Everclear's new "Hater" single that introduces their forthcoming Welcome To The Drama Club album. "A lot of people get it, some...

Everclear Are Ready To Take Over Canada

When an American band decides to tour our great country in the middle of the winter as in the case of Everclear's upcoming cross-Canada trek in February, you have to wonder why. Frankly, we in the Chart House Of Frozen Ghosts thought they were crazy for not touring warmer climates. Hell, we're still trying to convince our bosses that we can do...

Everclear - Songs From An American Movie Vol.2

The first volume of Everclear's Songs From An American Movie included a batch of quieter, radio-friendly sweet pop-rock songs that sounded sugary-sweet. But some of us were waiting for the rockers to come out. Now Vol.2 is in stores and we can hear Art's wailing in full force. That rousing, thumping sound that Everclear is known for (not...
