A lot of things can happen when your next door suburban couple gets sick and tired of all the bullshit in the world. Running away is the most common thing, somewhere around there’s stealing too, but if you want to go after you girl and then tag her along for your personal vendetta against your boss, always remember never to go into a pool with your cloths on. No, really. “There Are Listed Buildings” is…
Kiss’ first album in a decade got out this week, backed up by unusual favorable reviews, considering their previous record, “Psycho Circus”, was more or less a flop. Recently, the band paid ol’ Dave a visit at his Late Night Show were they performed live the first single off the new album “Sonic Boom,” the infectiously reminiscent “Modern Day Delilah.” Sonic Boom is out now on Universal/Roadrunner. At the moment Kiss is on an extensive…
In just a few weeks, Devendra Banhart new album “What Will We Be” is scheduled for release under Warner Bros., marking his first release under a major label. Naturally, he’ll be touring through much of North America, with his name stamped across most festivals’ posters. For now though, all we know is of his upcoming short trek in North America this November, but expect him to return to extensive touring after the holidays.What Will We…
Being a big music aficionado, I’ve kinda developed a very eclectic taste in music. I can go from punk to old school jazz to blues to classic rock to grunge, whatever with ease, depending in what mood I’m in. Lately, though, I’ve become more and more immersed into the electronic music scene. Up until a year or so ago, I had no idea how deeply rooted the electronic music genre, and community mind you, is….
I call voodoo on These United States’ latest video for the band’s infectious single “Everything Touches Everything.” Voodoo and all, you gotta admit that a charismatic scarecrow frontman, together with his skilled corn mates make up for one hell of kick ass band. They get a shit load of crows for groupies too. Life as a rockstar farmer is just awesome! Off the band’s recently released new album Everything Touches Everything out now via United…
Everyone’s favorite afro-pop indie band (ahem, this generation’s Talking Heads) has debuted their new single on their official website. You can stream it or you can download it just by supplying an email address. The song isn’t any real departure from their eponymous debut, and, in fact, would fit rather well towards the end of it. The track’s bouncy nature, however, displays the band in a more forward-thinking manner, embracing the Remain In Light influences…

I do believe that I’ve found the greatest debut single by any artist in the history of time. He goes by the name Boostalk, which is so awesome that suggesting it means nothing is irrelevant (I’m not counting Bradley Nowell’s personal meaning). It’s part of this new post-logic movement that my generation started. Anyhow, the ‘Stalk has the flow of a rapper many years beyond the talent displayed here. Seriously, he can spit words that…
A few days ago, Rolling Stone published their review of AIC’s latest record “Black Gives Way to Blue,” awarding it 2.5 stars out of 5, in a one paragraph long piece. Mr. Christian Hoard, did you even listen to the album or did you just stream a few tracks over AOL? Have you ever listened to an AIC album, in the first place? Black Gives Way to Blue is no masterpiece, I’ll grant you that,…
A totally unremarkable video for a totally mediocre song, maybe even subpar. I understand compiling a Greatest Hits record for the cheese and all, but did you guys really had to go round writing crap too? Oh, well, I’m pretty sure I’ll forget it by tomorrow. Good thing Grohl’s back in the kit, where he belongs. Greatest Hits is out November 3rd.
