Eminem readies multiple “relapses”
It feels like we’ve been talking about Eminem‘s upcoming studio album, Relapse, since the summer. Oh, that’s right, we have. Yet despite the “leak” of “I’m Having a Relapse”, the release of “Crack the Bottle”, and a multitude of release dates, Marshal Mathers’ fifth – maybe sixth? – studio album has yet to hit music [...]
The Whigs cross the Black Cat (3/4)
I haven’t been to Georgia for over a decade now, and even then I was only passing through. Thanks to last night’s show however, I got a taste of what it calls indie rock with The Whigs leading charge. What I learned is that there’s one truth to southern music, which is this: if you [...]
Pitchfork ’09 unveils its lineup
“Well lookie what we have here!” Bold words by a bad man (Back to the Future‘s Biff Tannen), yet a fitting reaction when looking at the initial line up for this year’s Pitchfork Music Festival. Thanks to the likes of Greg Kot (of the Chicago Tribune), the lineup’s out, the word’s on the streets, and [...]
Phish plans to hit the studio?
As if life wasn’t chaotic enough for the members of Phish these days (see: this weekend’s stint in Hampton, Virginia, the summer U.S. tour) now comes word that the legendary rockers will hit the studio next month to begin work on the long-awaited followup to 2004′s Undermind. In a recent interview with the New York [...]
What hiatus? Clap Your Hands Say Yeah debuts new song
Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t it just a couple months ago that Clap Your Hands Say Yeah was abadoning all upcoming plans in favor of a “long break”? So what was the Brooklyn outfit doing by not only appearing as the music guest on last Night’s Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, but debuting [...]
Guns N’ Roses and a summer tour?
With every piece of Guns N’ Roses news, there needs to be a spoonful of salt to go with it. It’s not like Axl Rose’s unit is the most reliable troupe of fellows — nor the most timely. How long did it take for Chinese Democracy to arrive? How long did it take for Axl [...]
Beale Street rolls out ’09 lineup
Long considered one of the spring’s best kept secrets, the Beale Street Music Festival has evolved recently into one of the premier events of the season, consistently offering a lineup for all ages, backgrounds, and taste. After all, where else are you going to find Al Green, Elvis Costello, and James Taylor sharing the same [...]
YouTube Live: Everyone is a “One Track Lover”
Back in the 1980’s Garth Marenghi wrote, produced, directed and starred in the television series Darkplace, or at least he’d like us to think so. In reality, Darkplace only exists within the confines of the British television series Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace created by Matthew Holness (aka Marenghi) in 2004. Starring the fictional, but loveable horror [...]
Jacko takes over London’s O2 Arena!
As we reported yesterday, Michael Jackson scheduled a Thursday press conference at London’s O2 Arena, inviting both fans and press alike, and today he held true to his word. The former global pop sensation came out on-stage with a summer agenda, and some hard to handle news. While he’ll be returning with what may add [...]
Bob Dylan and Neil Young taking over April
Move over Silversun Pickups, Super Furry Animals, The Thermals, and all you other outfits set to offer new releases in April! Sure, we still love you, but perhaps it’d be a wise decision to follow in the footsteps of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and move up your respective release dates. Ok, so maybe the forthcoming [...]
