Did I tell you how much I love and admire Bob Dylan? Today? In my humble opinion, you can use your fingers to count those who have just half as much experience as him in the music industry. In fact, who doesn’t like him? Even the Counting Crows say in their hit “Mr. Jones” “I wanna be Bob Dylan”. So, here’s how he just rightfully bashed the music industry. Speaking to The Times, Dylan said:…

Pharell and co. were present yesterday night in full swing on the Tonight Show with Leno, where they played “Everyone Nose,” the first single off their upcoming Seeing Sounds LP (out June 10). I personally had the chance to see the band play live on both Letterman a few weeks back, as well as yesterday night and I can say that they’ve done a much better job with the performance. A lot looser and a…
Indeed, times flies when you’re having fun and let me tell you, it’s been one hell of a ride so far. Just one year ago I was having a beer with Andrei, when we both got the idea to materialize our passion for music somehow; writing, then, seemed the simplest way in doing just that, so, shortly after that, on a sunny June afternoon ZME Music was born. So here we are, exactly one year…
I’m a bit late with this, but I’ve just found out that The Raconteurs were featured on Conan O’Brien’s Late Night Show, where they performed two live songs, from their April surprise record Consolers of the Lonely. To be more specific the band unleashed a vole of roots-rock upon National TV first with the infectious rocker “Many Shades of Black,” which was then soon followed by the fiddle-boosted “Old Enough.” All in all the band…
The New York post-punk revivalist trio, Liars, dazzled us with their latest full length, self-titled album, from last year. Now Angus Andrew and co. are back with a new release, this time with a digital EP, in the form of the “Freak Out EP,” available on Mute July 8, 2008. Besides the track titled Freak Out, you won’t find any new songs in the whole tracklist, that numbers six items. The rest are either live…
In case you haven’t already found out about how Slash got snubbed by Dr. Pepper as part of the drink manufacturer’s recent “Chinese Democracy” promotion, I’m gonna give you a little heads up just so you know what I’m talking about. Dr. Pepper has vowed to give everyone in the U.S. a free can of the drink if Guns N’ Roses’ long-awaited new album, “Chinese Democracy”, is released this year. Everyone, that is, apart from…
The Flood is ending slowly but steadily (I can’t apologize enough for the long waits in between posts) so no more talking just listen. Props to GFC on this post.

Back in late October, disaster struck music fans and internet freedom fighters everywhere around the globe, as the largest music torrent portal, OiNK, was shut down by the Interpol, International Federation of the Phonographic Industry and the British Phonographic Industry. A heck load of commotion went through out the following weeks, with a shocking endorsement and pat on the back from Trent Reznor himself. Now, more then half a year since the incident, people have…
I may just have watched the best music video for the whole month of May, namely the video for Cut Copy’s latest single “Hearts on Fire.” I don’t know exactly what makes love this video so much, but I, personally, find it beautifully brilliant. Basically we’ve got a heartbroken dude, that can’t seem to shake the feeling of unfulfilled love, a sentiment that follows him around, literally, like a dark cloud. Sit back, stretch your…
