According to a news post from earlier today, on [tag]Franz Ferdinand[/tag]’s myspace page, the Brits will attend a show in New York’s Bowery Ballroom on June 13th. Tickets for this show will go on sale at midday on Thursday 7th June through ticketweb.com. This show comes right after Franz Ferdinand’s excellent performance for their fellow town’s folk in Glasgow, at the Grand Ole Oprey Country And Western Club and comes as a great worm up…
Check out this RATM page, that’s what i call weird. There are 2 countdowns, one for 4 days from now and the other countdowns to August 24 of this year. What could this dates represent ? I have no clue, but i can only presume that the first date is for [tag]Rage Against The Machine[/tag]’s new website and the second most probably for a new tour, as a new album is a little out of…
Band name: Incubus Album name: Light Grenades Label: Epic/Immorta Gender: Rock/Alternative Release date: Nov 28, 2006 ZMErating: 4/5 Website: www.enjoyincubus.com I’ve heard some tracks of Incubus on the radio a while back, i’ve always fancied their style, their lyrics, i virtually liked them a lot as artists, so I decided to review one of their albums, namely their last one “Light Grenades”.
The singer [tag]Björk[/tag] could be described as a true alchemist as she finds harmony and balances the most pure feelings with fear and destruction; she does everything. What makes it special is the her way of singing, strong yet delicate. The opening track is “Earth Intruders” and the beat is also good, courtesy of Timbaland and Konono No. 1’s electric thumb-pianos. The track includes some incantations and the way she sings harder and louder is…
This year coincides with the 30th anniversary reunion tour in 2007. The band prepares a tour and they have also released a double compilation called “The Police”. The quality can not be denied but but this set falls just a bit short of being the definitive Police double disc. It feels a bit slim at 28 tracks. But the bad thing is not that it is slim but rather that some definitory tracks are missing….
[tag]John Lennon[/tag]’s former wife Yoko Ono has given permission for one of John’s greatest song “Imagine” to be immortalized as pop art. Imagine is a utopion themed song, that first appeared in 1971, as part of John Lennon’s album Imagine. In 2004 it was voted the third best song in the world by Rolling Stone Magazine, after “Satisfaction” by [tag]Rolling Stones[/tag] and “Like a Rolling Stone” by [tag]Bob Dylan[/tag]. The lyrics from this legendary song…

This special edition album will be released on June 25th on a two-disc set, containing 13 remastered songs featured on the original album plus 6 rare B-sides and covers tracks. The bonus tracks…
The English quintet from Buckinghamshire [tag]Tonight is Goodbye[/tag] has recently announced details on their forthcoming British headline tour alongside Death Can Dance and You Me At Six. The band has made a name out of itself, after winning a competition on Taste of Chaos tour, at the Brixton Academy, where they played alongside band like [tag]Taking Back Sunday[/tag], [tag]Underoath[/tag] or [tag]Saosin[/tag]. The band’s EP, called [tag]The Birds and The Bees[/tag] will be available on the…
The Southern Carolina indie band [tag]The Films[/tag] is set to release a new single from their debut album: “Don’t Dance Rattlesnake”, on the on the 11th of June through 7HZ Recording. The track is called “Belt Loops” and is their second single after “Black Shoes”. Produced by Tim Patalan, “Belt Loops” is being described, by lyrics man Michael Trent, as “a paranoid jealousy kind of song”. Besides “Belt Loops”, the single features two more songs:…
At the late ’80s heavy metal meant nothing but a good time. But then came [tag]Appetite for Destruction[/tag] and [tag]Guns N’ Roses[/tag] changed all that. The album is a dirty, dangerous, and mean record. They did that by going for a nasty edge to their songs and the lyrics made by Axl Rose make it very clearly that at the time he did not see much fun in the urban sprawl of L.A. and its…
