If you think about it, 2007 is looking like a long time ago. So naturally it makes sense to wonder when Radiohead will follow up its insanely successful album, In Rainbows. Though with appearances at just about every music festival in 2008 and the longevity of the album each single brings, some might consider it [...]
Way back in February of last year, we posted news of Heath Ledger’s involvement in the creation of a video for Nick Drake‘s Black Eyed Dog”. However, given the unfortunate and untimely death of Ledger just one month earlier, the irony surrounding to the project seemed to garner more attention than the video itself. This [...]
It had been a tiresome weekend in the best way possible for CoS: a hectic, eclectic few days filled with crowded music halls, blazing DJ sets, and an all around positive community vibe. But the final night of Tomorrow Never Knows was all about laid back vintage rock and roll with modern production values, showcasing [...]
It’s Inauguration week! That means Hope (patent pending) is in the air and reruns are not! (Well, except for one lazy talk show host—I’m looking at you, Letterman.)

On March 17th, Les will unveil this album with the release of Of Fungi [...]
Okay, I’ll officially say it now. Between the previously posted We Are One recap and the YouTube live post that will appear later, today is officially Bruce & U2 Day on CoS, which is a bit weird considering there is another holiday going on. But can you blame us? Both acts are gearing up for [...]
