When Viva la Vida came out back in June, I was wrongful to hastefully criticize the album without putting enough consideration into it. Thing is, I really didn’t want to put that much thought into the band’s music at the time, since I’ve never been a fan. I don’t know what happened next, but I decided to give the album a chance and gave it 6-7 consecutive runs one day, and it totally got stuck…

Bloc Party get way too ‘Intimate’ on their new LP cover
The above …err… caption, is the new covert art for Bloc Party’s third LP, “Intimacy.” However, this new version is for the record’s physical release of October 28th, as the old cover was for the already out digital release. Compare the two, and then let me know which of them seems more prettier. The old serif font on a dull background or two passion lovers engaging in fluid exchange (you can even see the saliva!…
New Against Me! video: ‘Borne On The FM Airwaves of the Heart’
With all this political mambo jambo flying around lately everywhere, Florida punkers Against Me! couldn’t have picked a better time to exist. In their latest video for “Borne on the FM Waves of the Heart” Against Me frontman, Tom Gabel duets with Tegan Rain Quin, from the sister act Tegan and Sara, on a black and white background, whilst the rest of the band’s rocking out, more or less, uninteresting. Btw, I’d like to add…

New Department of Eagles video: ‘In Ear Park’ (live on DUMBO session)
Few weeks back, I told you about the new Department of Eagles album, “In Ear Park,” as well as shared a song off it. By the way, I’ve been playing that particular track, No One Does It Like You, a lot lately, in anticipation for the October 7th release date, but now I’ve been treated to even greater goodies as the duo, Fred Nicolaus and Daniel Rossen, performed “In Ear Park” live at the DUMBO…
New AC/DC video: ‘Rock N’ Roll Train’
There you have it folks, the first official AC/DC video in a very, very long time is finally out! “Rock N’ Roll Train” is the first single off the Aussie hard rockers’ latest album, “Black Ice,” the first in eight years. As far as the video goes, it seems like it’s been copy/pasted off the rest of the bunch, but we don’t mind it all, because the song simply rocks! You know, it has the…
Pinback kicks off autumn tour
Pinback’s last year Autumn of the Seraphans was really awesome for me, with a lot of great hooks and memorable riffs. Anyway, what better way to promote the album then an autumn tour? No pun intended, of course. The tour kicks off tonight, in Dallas, and is set to keep the band all busy the whole months of September and October. Joining Pinback on stage, during the curse of the tour, will be Kylesa, sBach…
