Field Music is a band striving for reinvention. After a self-imposed three-year hiatus, the group has returned with new members and a new sound for their latest album, “Field Music (Measure).” Afraid of boxing themselves into an indie pop corner, Field Music has taken their new record as an opportunity to explore a wider range of style and sound. While the effort to diversify certainly helps develop a degree of ingenuity and surprise, the album’s almost schizophrenic nature is at times confusing and strangely unsatisfying, despite its undeniable musical...
...have to entertain yourself. They're not going to do it. Most people respond to [being asked], "Are there people whom you really just don't talk to?" It's a strange topic of conversation. But I found that it's almost foolproof. Of course, you can't just pop it on somebody. You have to introduce it in a way that is relevant and makes sense, but almost everyone responds to it. Top tens are good. CDs on a desert island. Then you get into arguments about whether you can have whole catalogs of CDs or just...
Charles Schwab Corp. launched the opening shot when it chopped commissions on online equity trades by about 30% to $8.95 from $12.95 a pop for individual investors, and, more importantly, streamlined the fee so that it applied across the board regardless of how frequently someone trades, how many assets the investor holds, or how many shares a person buys.

Also, under the new rules...
...earlier that morning, Jackson died of "acute propofol intoxication." It said the standard of care for administering the drug, which typically includes equipment for patient monitoring, precision dosing and resuscitation, was "not present." Propofol, an anesthetic normally used in hospital settings for surgical procedures, was allegedly given to the pop icon at his home by Murray to treat insomnia in the hours leading up to his death on June 25. If convicted, the Houston-based cardiologist may face up to four years in state prison. Murray pleaded not guilty and was released on $75,000 bail. He is due back...
Thankfully, Legrand and Scally haven't. The great musical innovators notwithstanding, it's generally disastrous to effect a radical stylistic shift. (I know there are hard-core defenders of U2's electro-experiment album Pop out there somewhere ... but they're wrong.) No, the key is change and more of the same. So while Legrand's voice, easily one of the most beguiling ones in rock today, has until now been weighed down by the band's reverb-heavy atmosphere, Teen Dream simply lightens the load. The results, as on "Lover of Mine," are vocals that soar with joy while...
