Remember way back in November when rumors popped up that Sublime, thee Sublime, was entertaining the idea of a possible reunion? Yeah, well, the madness has failed to cease. In fact, if you believe the latest round of rumors, the Long Beach based outfit could be getting back together as soon as tonight. Speculation centers [...]
I firmly believe that Kansas is the greatest American progressive rock group of their generation. Throughout the 1970s they composed some of the most memorable prog-rock songs of all time and achieved mass appeal. “Carry On Wayward Son”, “Dust in the Wind”, and “Point of Know Return” are legendary tracks. Even beyond these well-known hits, [...]
We owe Fordham University an apology. Vanderbilt University ain’t the only ones offering a music event for the ages these days. As first reported by the Hartford Curant, U2 is set to descend on Fordham next Friday (March 6th) for a “secret show.” According to Eric Danton, who penned the story, Bono and company will [...]
Weren’t one of those lucky New Yorkers to sneak into Bowery Ballroom a few weeks back for Lily Allen’s Turbo Tax sponsored, MySpace Music presented secret show? Well, now’s your chance to experience at least three minutes of the performance, courtesy of a brand new professional recorded video. There’s isn’t really much to say about [...]
February may be the shortest month of the year, but by no means is it the slowest when it comes to news. Between festival lineups and reunion news, showcase announcements and new albums, the last 27 days certainly brought many sleepless nights and vivid memories. So what better way to cap off the month then [...]
I am a soul man. Not many twenty-something, white guys from rural western Pennyslvania can lay claim to that title, but I do. Soul is the music I grew up on. Even as an infant, the radio in my family’s car was always dialed in to the oldies. While my nursery school friends were being [...]
Considering that Chicago’s Empty Bottle recently announced a date for Mogwai at the Congress Theater (as well as 3 nights running at Music Hall of Williamsburg for our right-coast readers), it’s high time we at CoS put up a good video of the Glaswegian lads strutting their stuff the way they do it best–live on [...]
It’s official. Whoever is scheduling the acts for Vanderbilt University’s Rite of Spring Festival deserves a job with Goldenvoice, Superfly, or any other production company upon graduation. If last year’s bill of Feist, Spoon, Lil John, Grace Potter, and The Avett Brothers didn’t convince you, just take a look at their lastest work. The Flaming [...]
They say bad things come in threes. Think back real quick. Any personal truth to that statement? If so, compare that to where you are now. The feeling of coming out the other end a stronger, wiser (maybe a little bit cynical) person is the exact mind frame to be in when listening to Brooklyn’s [...]
Let’s be honest. For as much anticipation that proceeded the release of Cold War Kid‘s Loyalty to Loyalty, the California natives’ sophomore effort didn’t really leave much of an impression in our memories. In fact, at last count, it hasn’t even hit over 10 plays on the ol’ iTunes play count. That being said, we [...]
