Dredg announces next album, calls it The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion
Dredg has been at work on its fourth studio album for over two years now. So it makes sense that the first line describing The Pariah, The Parrot, The Delusion on the Los Angeles rockers recently released press release announcing the album says the following: “Aggressive and beautiful, visceral and thoughtful”. After all, the former [...]
Coming June 2009 – R.I.P. BMG
Yes, you heard it correctly. BMGmusic.com, the website which offered deals like “12 CDs for the price of 1,” and ultimately became a sensation in the 90s alongside Columbia House for is remarkably good deals will soon be laid to rest. According to Rolling Stone, in December BMG announced it would no longer be accepting [...]
Guilty Pleasure: dc Talk – Free at Last
I grew up Presbyterian, evangelical Presbyterian. Churched in the ’90s, as a teenager, you were handed two things – an NIV translation of the Bible and a copy of DC Talk’s Free at Last. You didn’t receive one without the other, and frankly, in hindsight, reading the Bible would have probably gotten me more chicks. [...]
High Sierra Music Festival unveils 2009 lineup
There’s one thing pretty evident about the summer’s upcoming music festivals: either jam band kids have it really good, or they all like the five or six same bands. I just haven’t figured out which one is the case yet. Whatever the case may be, thanks to the High Sierra Music Festival‘s recently announced 2009 [...]
Uh oh! Coolio charged with possession and battery!
If you haven’t kept up with the recent news, Artis Leon Ivey (aka Coolio) was collared for a scuffle at an L.A. airport. At a loss? Don’t remember Coolio? Well, unless you slept throughout 1995, you’re likely to remember a lil’ ditty known as “Gangsta’s Paradise” and, if you’re really reaching, you’ll recognize his theme [...]
Jeb Bishop Trio jazzes up The Hideout (3/11)
I’ve already chronicled my love for The Hideout here at Consequence of Love, but Wednesday night’s Jeb Bishop Trio gig piled on the awesome. Stepping out of the cold and through the door, I turned a corner and realized it must be Soup and Bread night, a semi-recent addition to The Hideout’s Wednesday night menu. [...]
Have a picnic with The Roots one week, find Harmony the next!
Let’s face it. One look at the ol’ Festival Outlook will tell you that there isn’t enough time to take in all of North America’s ever-growing festival circuit. Unless you have Tiger Woods money, a private plane, a teleporter, or your name is Perry Farrell, it just isn’t humanly possible. Fortunately, the best part of [...]
St. Vincent takes skills on the road
When Ms. Regina lying low for the better part of a year now, we at CoS are forced to look elsewhere for as catchy-as-hell sounds from jaw-droopingly beautiful female singer/songwriter. Fortunately, St. Vincent has stepped up to the challenge thanks to the forthcoming release of her new album, Actor, and the fact the women more [...]
mp3 Remix: Friday Mixtape XLVII
Lots of goodies on this week’s edition of our Friday Mixtape. In fact, so many that it’d probably be in your best interest to skip this introduction and get right into the below collection of the week’s best singles, remixes, and covers, along with mp3s from a few up-and-comers you may just want to check [...]
Listen: The Fake Fictions
Local bands are a dime a dozen. They can be found each night filling semi-filled clubs with their largely forgettable tunes, and plugging their middling existence on Facebook and Myspace. The Fake Fictions played Chicago’s own The Whistler on Thursday night and proved their worth as a local band ahead of the inconsequential herd. The [...]
