Check Out: Of Montreal dabbles in new…and The Beatles
Let’s face it, Of Montreal doesn’t like to take breaks; since the release of Skeletal Lamping last October, Kevin Barnes and Co. have essentially been going nonstop, dabbling their time in every time from touring and the release of a new EP to “busking” and dare I say, work on another new LP. And when [...]
The La’s to la la again?
In the latest case of NME.com toying with our hearts by publishing a story that is either a.) potentially true because Pete Doherty is involved and the story and we all know how much NME loves Peter Doherty, or b.) is a complete exaggeration resulting from NME misinterpreting one line some random roadie said at [...]
Snoop Dogg gets Slightly Stoopid
It looks like Phish has a rival for the 2009 summer tour most likely to leave the DEA in a panic. Following a spring trek with K’Naan and a couple festival appearances, the one and only Snoop Dogg will join forces with Slightly Stoopid and Stephen Marley for the 18-date “Blazed and Confused” tour. Yes, [...]
Watch: Matt & Kim reveal their “Lessons Learned”
It seems like it’s been forever since the hopelessly adorable dance/punk couple Matt & Kim came out with their last music video for “Daylight”, but thankfully the handsome duo is back again with an all new and totally outrageous video for “Lessons Learned”. And this time, Matt and Kim bare it all! That’s right; the [...]
Ottawa Bluesfest pieces together ’09 lineup
Ottawa Bluesfest is basically Canada’s version of Summerfest: a 10 day music festival featuring an eclectic lineup of rock, alternative, country, and of course, blues. In other words, it’s something for everybody, and well, if one can’t find something one likes, one probably isn’t trying too hard. After all, just take a look at their [...]
The Avett Brothers explore I and Love and You
North Carolina’s The Avett Brothers have been blurring the lines between bluegrass, rock, folk, and even punk, for quite some time. Since their 2000 inception, the guys have been displaying their knack for beautifully crafted tunes through record releases and live shows alike, continually balancing raw energy and southern twang. It’s hard not to fall [...]
Internet Radio 2.0?: Blip.fm partners with imeem
To the heathens and unconverted, Blip.fm may be the messiah of internet radio. The idea is simple: allow everyone to DJ music by “blipping” tracks. (Isn’t that such a clever verb?) Each user gets to choose what songs they play, and also which other DJs they listen to. It’s essentially build your own radio with [...]
Album Review: KMFDM – Blitz
The industrial standard for five-letter words known as KMFDM returns this year with the album Blitz, and if we were searching for a phenomenal recording to top more lo toned replications like Cult of Static then this is it. Leave it to programming expert Tim Skold to have his hands in the cookie jar of [...]
The Cure unveils “secret show” via MySpace
Considering the rather “eh” reaction to their headlining set at Coachella last week (see: Spin Magazine‘s Best & Worst from Coachella), perhaps it’s only appropriate that Robert Smith and The Cure have chosen to focus their memories elsewhere, like the band’s performance at Los Angeles’ Troubadour on December 13, 2008. As you may or may [...]
Oasis hints at break!?!?
Say it ain’t so, Noel! In a recent interview with Q Magazine, the Oasis frontman hinted with one single sentence what all Oasis fans fear – that their precious Gallagher brothers may soon take a break, like a five years long type of break… “By the time we make another record we’ll be five years [...]
