Grizzly Bear combats album leak with tour dates leak
What better way to combat the recent leak of your new album, then by leaking the tour dates that will be supporting said, right? At least, that what Grizzly Bear appear to be thinking. Fresh off the illegal leak and ahead of the legal release of their new studio album, Veckatimest (May 26th via Warp [...]
Jacko is Back-o?
Michael Jackson‘s a legend. Scrape away the media hoopla that’s stained his career and you’re left with Off The Wall, Thriller, and Bad. Not too shabby of a discography — and that’s not even including the ’90s classic, Dangerous. Well popsters, it’s time to start moonwalkin’ again, because it looks like ol’ Whacko Jacko is [...]

Album Review: Neko Case – Middle Cyclone
Perhaps the highest compliment an artist can receive is admiration from his or her contemporaries. If you sat through any of the boring awards shows over the last couple of months, you saw actors and musicians ecstatic to be recognized by their fellow artists. Sure, the millions of dollars in their bank accounts and screaming [...]
Doves finally ready to hit the road!

In support of their forthcoming studio album, Kingdom of Rust, due for [...]

Watch: Jimmy Fallon sweats, Van Morrison plays “Sweet Thing”
Seriously, I’m not sure what was more exciting about last night: Jimmy Fallon making his late night debut or that the Jimmy Fallon tag on CoS went live! I kid, because in all sincerity, once you get past the sweat dripping down his face and the few moments of awkward nervousness, Fallon wasn’t half bad. [...]

Recently, this past Friday the 13th to be exact, writer Andy Keil had the chance to sit down with Parker Griggs, vocalist, guitarist and fellow Iowan of Radio Moscow.
