On a similar note, check out our interview with Brett from the band that we…

Bill Nershi, String Cheese Incident front man and his acoustic duo Nershi-Law are making the final stop of their U.S. tour with rockers Van Ghost tomorrow November 25th at Chicago’s own Subterranean. And, this is not a show to miss! “Nershi-Law contemporizes the storytelling tradition while paying impressive homage to the genre.

VIDEO: Them Crooked Vultures – ‘Elephants’ (live @ Reading Festival HQ)
I know this is a bit late, considering it’s been almost three months since the Reading and Leeds festivals took place, but this high quality footage of Them Crooked Vultures playing “Elephants” live is just too good not to share. Homme is ripping it all the way delivering perfectly balanced guitar work, while also singing, John Paul Jones proves he lives up to the legend tied to his name keeping the bass line afloat with…
VIDEOS: My Morning Jacket on American Dad
As previously reported, yesterday night American Dad was all about Louisville’s finest, My Morning Jacket. I didn’t get to see the full episode yet, but from the couple of teasers and short rips on youtube it looks damn hilarious. A lot more humorous than one would expect anyway, even though they had plenty of material to go work with. Bellow you can find a few YouTube clips of scenes from the last night’s American Dad…
New Rain Machine video – ‘Give Blood’
If some of you became a bit disheartened upon news of TV on the Radio hiatus, know that Kyp Malone’s (vocals/guitar) debut solo album, released under the Rain Machine moniker, sounds and feels like a genuine TVotR record. Sure, it’s a deeply intimate and personal record, packed with influences and issues addressed by Kyp, but the vibe while spinning it is so strangely familiar that there isn’t any doubt in my mind – it’s TV…
Spoon announce official Transference release date and tour
One of my personal most anticipated release of the upcoming new year is definitely Spoon’s “Transference”. We’ve talked a bit about the new Spoon record in the past, more exactly about the few Transference tracks that have already been played live on the band’s last tour. It now seems people will get the chance to have a first hand account of the new Spoon sooner than one may think, as in the following months the…
Magnetic Fields map new tour for upcoming album
“Realism”, the third Magnetic Fields record in the “no-synth” trilogy (following i and Distortion) is slated for a early 2010 release, so evidently a grand North America tour has been announced to support it. Merrit and company can be seen playing their soothing indie pop starting from February, when the tour will kick off in DC, before coming to an epic end in London towards the end of March. A somewhat brief trek, indeed, but…
Charity goes a long way – ‘I Want a Goat’ (music video spoof)
SNL’s satire music video I’m on a Boat stirred a lot of comments when it first surfaced more than half a year ago, bashing auto-tune and the current MTV scene. Looks like some well intended good-doers decided to capitalize on the video’s viral success and produce a hilarious spoof to help raise money and donate goats for some of the poorest people and villages in India. People just have to head over to the project’s…
Megadeth and Slayer officially announce the 2010 American Carnage Tour
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 almost equal proportions in 2010, called the American Carnage Tour. They even brought on Testament as openers to re-create the…
Les Savy Fav featured on ‘Yo Gabba Gabba’
If only had to use one word to describe Les Savy Fav’s latest brand new song, titled “Shoes” and recorded for kids show Yo Gabba Gabba, then it would definitely be awkward. Hey, don’t get me wrong, they’ve made plenty of crazier stuff, but it’s this new cute side of theirs, which the band just unveiled as part of their soundtrack for the latest YBB episode, that really freaks me out. Even frontman Tim Harrington…
