Photo by Matthew Field As previously reported the Californian super group [tag]Queens of the Stone Age[/tag] was set to play a gig in the cold deeps of a German salt mine. The concert took place, in front of a small and intimate crowd, on November 20, where the band played live 700 meters underground. The initial press release reported that the band was going to play a never before performed live track, but haven’t heart…
Mystery seems to be a [tag]Radiohead[/tag] trademark, from cryptic runes (those were fun though), to a sporadic out of the blue new album, to a basement gig footage and most recently details have surfaced of the band’s much anticipated 2008 tour. The dates for the summer European tour were announced yesterday and included some vague schedueling for Manchester, Dublin or Glasgow; at the time I didn’t know if this was intentionally put to confuse or…
This thing is huge; fabulous. Queen cleans the spider webs from their instruments and they start to sing again. Wait just a minute. What could they do about Freddie. Their website announced that the band was going to release their first single in ten years a few days ago and more then that it was announced that it will be for free as well. The rock band introduces again frontman Paul Rodgers and they recorded…
Well whoever said that [tag]The Mars Volta[/tag] music is “puzzling” is oh so right, especially when the Long Beach, CA based band, recently put out a brain challenging puzzle on their website. The puzzle is made out of 16 blocks, all forming the cover art for TMV’s forthcoming 2008 studio album “The Bedlam in Goliath,” the type where you have to move a block one at a time. Yeah I know it’s really frustrating. If…
Talented Jacksonville “heart breaker” is back with a new video, this time for the slow paced, chilling “Follow The Lights.” Much like the whole song, the video lacks passion and as result gets terribly dull. It features Ry chopping his guitar and singing the song, while a pretty down dude walks through a empty, uninhabited home. Although it’s a bright day, only a few portions of the house are lighted, the man follows these “lights”…
The fact is that the Guns are attracting massive publicity but they have not released anything for a long time. Numerous rumours have been started which are more or less true. A big part of the fans are interested in that so former Guns guitarist, now at [tag]Velvet Revolver[/tag], Slash wants to put things in the light with an autobiography. “It was the only format that I could find where I could get some of…
The reuniting saga has not stopped. But this time it is something different. They are not in the spot light as Spice Girls or Eagles were but James Taylor and Carole King are two very talented musicians and they have been making music for the soul for about forty years. Taylor and King were a match made in 1969 at Hollywood’s famed Troubadour nightclub. They were rehearsing there Tuesday afternoon for a series of benefit…
Ok, we admit, we got rick rolled. Apparently the highly publicized albumsix.com website that has sprung up news alleging [tag]Weezer[/tag] will be releasing its sixth album, is all a big lie, hoax, banana oil, bunco, con or plain old bull****. The dudes behind the website admitted they never believed things would go so far and expected the band’s official to close their mouths, but nothing happened. A few days ago they debunked Weezer’s new album,…
I knew the Whites had a thing for read, but their taking it to a whole new level in their new video, for the Corky Robbins-penned “Conquest.” Here, Jack is a matador in a hispanic arena, dueling a really bad ass bull. Soon Jack and the bull embark in a deadly dance of blood as he dodges and repeatedly stabs the oversized cow. Jack is however a man with a big heart and can’t manage…
They have been known for doing surprising things before. This time they went and sang as a warmup act at a charity concert in London. But just Bono and The Edge were there. The band members have invested time and money in good causes and it is obvious that charity is an important part of them. The show delighted the 250 people who attended the fund raiser on Friday night for Mencap, a charity that…
