“They just kicked out another band member? Is there anybody left?” “What in the name of all that is good would possess him to move in with Courtney Love?” “Is THAT really metallica?!” “So they are finally releasing Chinese Democracy…. again?” These questions say a lot about recent years, as well as this one, in music.

Athens, Georgia garage rock band The Whigs, came under my radar 1 year ago, when the southern duo, back then a trio, were featured on Rolling Stone as “possibly the best unsigned band in America.” A righteous claim I might add, considering they’re surprisingly talented, mixing a blend of late 60’s garage rock and contemporary [...]

Recently we had the chance to have, a really short but concise, e-mail conversation with Jeff Stinco, the lead guitarist from Montreal based punk-pop quintet Simple Plan. We pondered Jeff with a few questions, about the band’s new album, sound, new video and their upcoming 2008 tour and he was gracious enough to give some [...]

They have a way of staying in the center of attention even without releasing music or without singing at gigs or in fact without doing anything.
