The Language of Cities is the second studio album by Maserati, released in 2002.

Brad Haywood wrote for Pitchfork:

"... Though they don't break new ground, they walk field adeptly, boasting superior execution and occasionally impressive moments of fusion. "Being a President Is Like Riding a Tiger" is one of those moments, where a solo guitar meditates for three minutes until drums enter, hastening a Godspeed-like tempo and flavor. After another minute-and-a-half, the composition draws back, shifting gears to steel itself for crescendo: a recurrent two-measure melody carried by the bass alternates one measure in 16th notes and a full measure of rest. Spiraling above the bass are a pair of charged, supernal guitars that gradually swell as the bass modulates to play both the melody and the rests. At full bore and full volume, the band musters a powerful climax."

37:29:24 by Maserati, released on Allay Records in 2001.

Originally released in a very limited capacity in 2001, Maserati’s debut album finally gets reissued on all formats to commemorate the band’s 20th anniversary. Remastered from the original master tapes by Josh Bonati, 37:29:24 featured Maserati’s original lineup of Coley Dennis, Matt Cherry, Steve Scarborough, and Phil Horan, and includes many of the most placid and medicative moments in Maserati’s storied catalog – a darker, more pensive night drive than they would come to be known for on their later albums.

I don’t know what kind of reaction he expected wearing an SS Nazi uniform in public. Honestly it went better than I would’ve thought. I know a lot of people that would punch a Nazi without any regrets.

This weekend is the 25th annual Athfest (https://athfest.com/), a huge celebration of the music and creative culture of the Classic City. To go along with that, here's an online exhibition called "A Glimpse of Athens" that our museum studies students put together last semester, focusing on different themes and different views of our home over time: https://georgiamuseum.org/virtual-gallery/a-glimpse-of-athens/
