Want to listen to some Animal Collective concerts?
Yes? Well, then you’ll be happy to know that two of the Animal Collective‘s concerts, which took place at NYC’s Bowery Ballroom and Grand Ballroom respectively, are available for download or stream thanks to a one nyctaper. Having not been to either show, I can’t say how amazing or not amazing they were, but judging [...]
mp3 Remix: Friday Mixtape XL
To the Romans, XL means number 40. To consumers, XL means a clothing size, and potentially a diet. To Radiohead, The Raconteurs, and Beck, XL, or more specifically, XL Recordings, means home. To us, XL is just our latest Friday Mixtape, and a good one at that. As always, below you will find the week’s [...]
Drive-By Truckers split time between touring and new album(s)
Considering the Drive-By Truckers currently find themselves in the midst of a U.S. tour, which will continue off and on between now and April, the Atlanta based outfit’s recent revelation to The Daily Times that a brand new studio studio album is on the way came as a bit of surprise.

“Bowie heads back to Berlin to record”
During the late 70′s David Bowie released three records – Low, Heroes, and Lodger – both semi-recorded in and heavily inspired by the industrial city of Berlin.

When not performing in her dressing room (see below) and writing letters to President Obama, Ani DiFranco has been spending the majority of her recent time touring in support of last year’s Red Letter Year, a characteristic that will continue well into the coming months. Hot off appearances in Australia and Singapore, the Buffalo native [...]
Faces reunited, finish album; wait nevermind…
Sure, it may have been NME reporting it, but when word broke yesterday that Faces, you know that legendary rock outfit fronted by Rod Stewart who reportedly reunited last November, had hit the studio and completed its first new album since 1973′s Ooh La La, the story sort of made sense. But then we got [...]

Silversun Pickups ready to Swoon us…
Whether or not you listened to the band’s 2006 full length (and exceptional) debut, Carnavas, is not important. Odds are you’ve probably heard “Lazy Eye” a hundred or so times by now, especially if you’re a college student and have ever visited a gym that plays MTVu on rotation. Regardless of where you stand, the [...]
