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…
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…
Josh, dude, that was freaky!
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…
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…
It’s no secret I’m a huge fan of the upcoming Quantum Solace flick, who’s soundtrack is under more then capable hands with Jack White and Alicia Keys onboard. Now, it seems Jack and Coca-Cola have team up for the new Coke Zero commercial, that has Bond theme and vibe to it. The song in the background was obviously made by Jack White with Bond-like themed riffs and heavy beats. Oh, and guess what the predominant…
Bon Iver took Conan O’Bien’s Late Night show by storm, last night, after Justin Vernon and the rest of the gang made their US nation-wide television debut with a stelar performance of “Flume,” as part of their 08 tour in support of the debut album. A well deserved shout out to Conan for the impecable pronounciation (obviously, I didn’t know it right, till now.). Also, if you’re looking for more Bon Iver goodness check out…
Man, Bloc Party’s taking the whole surprise, out of the blue effect a bit too serious, to the point of exaggeration even. After releasing their latest LP, “Intimacy,” on a very short notice a few weeks ago, the band has now premiered a new single, “Talons,” that off Intimacy, but the thing is it wasn’t present on the digital release, as Kele were saving it to add an even greater effect to the spontaneous album….
Haha, you gotta give it to those Canadians, they really know how to crash a party. During Oasis’ set on last night’s Toronto Virgin Festival, right in the middle of “Morning Glory,” a dude from the crowd came from out of the nowhere and put a good shuv on Noel Gallagher, causing him to fell off the stage. The band took some good 10 minutes to recover and then returned to complete their set. In…
When we unveiled Metallica’s first single off the new album, “The Day That Never Comes,” a few days ago the song was met with mixt feelings both by me and you, the readers of ZME. A part of me feels the song is quite good with some awesome pre-black album metal hooks, but the other part feels like this is just another black album re-hash with the same old riffs over and over again. Alas,…
