The Clash of the Titans 1991 tour was one of the most epic and spectacular series of metal gigs to ever have graced the planet, basically making various venues in the US and Europe the very center of the scene for a day. Now, Megadeth and Slayer are set to embark on a tour of [...]
Ah, finally! I’ve been nervously waiting for a follow-up to Made In The Dark, which is quite the pop gem, for ages now, and I can only rejoice at the news that Hot Chip’s new album, titled “One Life Stand“, will get released at the beginning of 2010. Here’s what I’ve read about the record [...]
Sufjan Stevens once had a plan so ambitious, so preposterous, that it seemed like one of those ‘just crazy enough to work’ things - write a concept album about each of the 50 states. He started off with the midwest when he released the lush “Michigan” in 2003, before carrying on with the magnificent 2005 [...]
Recently, the experimental three piece band Liars have posted a cryptic post on their MySpace blog, containing a new art work (posted above) and few links directing fans to thesisterworld.com.

Apparently, the tour will stretch across the whole year, with short breaks in between. Most [...]
Between so many solo projects by each of The Strokes‘ band members, it seems like their new album is the one left to suffer the most. There’s been so much talk and speculating around it, that I, for one, don’t even know what to say, or write for that matter, anymore. It’s almost the beginning [...]
Since the super-group trio of Josh Homme/Dave Grohl/JP Johns was first announced a few months back, Them Crooked Vultures have become the number one act in the scene, with all eyes turning towards them, watching the band’s every move. Be it secret live shows, teasers and cryptic messages, The Vultures haven’t been too generous with [...]
Rumored to be called “Google Music,” “Google Audio,” or “One Box, this latest search service targeted exclusively to the music niche, plans to revolutionize the way people find music.
Apparently, upon searching for a particular artist or song will bring up a box, hence the “One Box” name, where users will be able to stream songs [...]
