We’re living in an increasingly tiresome world where our attention and patience is constantly being put to the test. Buy 50$ Converse snickers because that’s what’s hip, read NME because that’s where all the good music is, love this band because Pitchfork gave it a 8.4/10 review. Brands, advertising, media, sex etc. - it all [...]
You know Phoebe from way back when she started performing and touring with Nouvelle Vague. No long introduction is needed for this artist, as I'm sure you all know about her totally original and impressive performances of Human Fly, Bela Lugosi's Dead, Escape Myself etc., about her absolutely brilliant [...]
I’m not really into the whole pop rock scene, but every once in a while you come across somebody fresh and quite talented that’s really worth it; it’s this case with Alex Calise. The guitarist/singer/songwriter doesn’t have complicated songs, just urban edgy in your face pop rock. So, we’re gonna do an interview with her, [...]
A new, hip and alluring band, Stealth Like a Canoe, is bringing melodic love songs back to the windy city since Rue Royale left for the U.K. Indie/Folk/Pop duo SLAC has a simple equation that is definitely working. Honest love songs from ironic lovers. Coincedently, Adam confirmed that, “Nicollette is his.” (In my interview with the [...]
Welcome to Ashley, “one of Chicago’s best live bands,” was an energetic, crowd pleasing, good time at the Empty Bottle on October 23rd. This show in an effort to promote their new album, “Absent man” was fun and refreshingly new. Coley Kennedy, the front man for WTA took time out of his rock star day and [...]
A simple, maybe a little dumb question first: why did you call the band „Springfactory” ? A short description will do: "We saw a sign outside a factory that read ”Welcome to Springfactory” We just thought it could be a good name for a band. This was before we had even [...]"
Bellow you can read a very insightful Q&A with Rou Reynolds, the lead vocalist/keyboard player of the post-punk/hardcore band Enter Shikari, a band that’s only at is second album, but tah has already began to gather a cult-like following in the UK.
Info about the new Enter Shikari album, titled “Common Dreads” (out now in the [...]
Pocketbooks is lately, probably the most appreciated British indie pop band, if we were to consider the different reviews and critic it has received from various music websites and magazines (you'll read about it in the interview). They come from London, they have released [...]
tada tátà is a special musical proiect from Sweden, more exactly from Umeå/Falun. They represent a set of electro pop and folk, with songs mostly played on guitars and Ukulele. Listen to it and you'll notice that it's like music for toys. I know, it sounds a bit childish and blurry - it's probably just their toy piano and glockenspiel toying with my mind. They sound in fact very great and their [...]
This indie pop/experimental band comes from Amsterdam, the Netherlands. They're the newest band you probably know and have already released an album, that is [...]
