Derby
Derby has spent the past four years in virtual training, preparing and patiently waiting their turn to fight for the prize and win the girl. However some have wondered if Derby is ever going to really reach their moment of truth. Well, dear Derbsters, your time has come!
By the time their new record, Posters Fade, hits iPods and record stores this summer, you'd better take cover and try to catch one last glimpse of the Derby rocket as it blasts off.

A Kid Named Thompson
I Want To Wake Up
Self-released, 2007
A Kid Named Thompson brings to the collective rock table a uniquely Texas-punk meets emo-core CD that delivers the goods. I Want to Wake Up features quality production and thoughtful lyrics backed by a three piece that sounds like they’ve been around, although I suspect these Texas kids are new to the rock game.
The lyrics have the polish that reflects the agility of an Xbox generation eager to add to the already crowded room that holds Emo bands in the highest regard. I distinctly hear the talent and agility, but I also hear reflections of Sunny Day Real Estate arm wrestling with Motion City Soundtrack in the back-stage parking lot at a Van’s Warped Tour show in SoCal.

Sometimes it's hard to get above the clouds to see the rest of the world when you exist in such a musical circus like Portland, Oregon.
Not to exaggerate things, but thousands of bands and musicians are packed into this little-big city and I’m continually astonished that there seems to be enough room for everyone to coexist. It's definitely cool to look around and feel as if you're in the middle of an all-star film, like Ocean's Eleven, where something big seems to be going on nearly every weekend.
You already know the heavy-hitters like the Dandy Warhols, the Decemberists, the Shins, and the other kids on the block like Dolorean, the Thermals, Blitzen Trapper, Stars of Track and Field, and Viva Voce to name a few. Then there are recent transplants like Spoon's Britt Daniel and Death Cab's Chris Walla.

A Stylish Cape Never Goes out of Style
Q & A With Dave Vanian of The Damned
By Joseph Vallejos
Nada Mucho: How is the Grave Disorder tour different from those early tours?
David Vanian: I am answering this just after the New York City attack so I don't really know what to say to this one; before September 11th I would have said it’s a culmination of 25 years of hard work, now I feel like the ground has been kicked out from under me. We will all see what unfolds together. Those events are tainting everything right now. It’s a very difficult time for everyone.

NadaMucho.com Presents: 2007 Year-in-Review
What Other People Thought
Since we are too lazy and incompetent to create a collective "best of" for 2007, we decided to just augment A-Law's keen feature with a poorly-executed summary of what some friends, acquaintances and people we don't know thought.
