The Dead Milkmen Live at the Trocadero, Philly (Halloween, 2009)

The Dead Milkmen, a Philadelphia quartet known for their quirky underground hit singles such as “Punk Rock Girl,” “Dean’s Dream,” and “Stuart,” spent years making an art form out of not taking things too seriously during their late 80’s heyday. Twenty years later, the world hasn’t forgotten them. There could have been little more proof [...]

The latest and worst Foo Fighters song to date

Don’t get me wrong here, I love the Foo Fighters, I really do. “The Colour and the Shape” is one of my all time favorite albums, and I’m a huge fan of Grohl’s work, be it in the kit with Nirvana, QOTSA and Them Crooked Vultures or playing frontman in the FF, but recently it’s [...]

A long and arduous wait for the new Strokes album

Between so many solo projects by each of The Strokes‘ band members, it seems like their new album is the one left to suffer the most. There’s been so much talk and speculating around it, that I, for one, don’t even know what to say, or write for that matter, anymore. It’s almost the beginning [...]

Download: Thao with the Get Down Stay Down - ‘Know Better Learn Faster’

It’s only been until this summer that I finally got acquainted with Thao and the Get Down Stay Down’s incredible alt rock, when, completely by chance, I stumbled across their myspace. Boy, was I missing out! There’s something really special about the band, it’s almost like they have this sort of aura around them, something [...]

Hot Streaming: Julian Casablancas - ‘River of Breaklights’

Julian Casablancas‘ first single, “11th Dimension”, off his upcoming debut solo album, has been more or less unanimously voted the hottest track of the past month, based on the outrageous amount of reactions on blogs, twitter, facebook and all the other social networks that you can think of. With “Phrazes For The Young” being slated [...]

New These United States video: Everything Touches Everything

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 [...]

New but oldie - Nirvana’s Scoff (live @ Pine Street Theatre)

HOLY FUCK! The whole interwebs is packed with Nirvana all of a sudden, with every blog blogging  and every speaker popping over the band’s insane rocker “Scoff,” played live almost 20 years ago at the Pine Street Theater. The song was released yesterday for free by Sub-Pop, being featured on the upcoming re-master and expanded [...]

New Foo Fighters song: ‘Wheels’ (original studio version)

The Foos‘ ‘long break‘ is by any means far from over, especially with Dave’s involvement with Them Crooked Vultures in the studio and on tour. As the hiatus rages on, though, there’s no reason for the band not to market their brand and earn a few more hard earned dollars for their lengthy career by [...]

The Smashing Pumpkins new album (44 tracks!) to be released for free!

Actually, the title should read  Billy Corgan is releasing a new album, since everybody more or less knows the Smashing Pumpkins, at least the band you and me fell in love with, is long dead. I’ve been known to diss Corgan on more than a few occasions, whenever he was kind enough to give me [...]
