Mates of States re-arrage Re-Arrange Us
Want to know just how cool Kori Gardner and Jason Hammel? How many parents do you know are currently gearing up for the release of their very own 12″ EP full of remixes? That’s right. As if the lovely duo better known as Mates of State hadn’t already done enough to solidify their status on [...]
Paolo Nutini makes a Sunny Side Up
It’s pretty hard to fathom it has been three years since the world was first introduced to Paolo Nutini and his “New Shoes”. What isn’t very hard to believe is the fact that the Scottish singer/songwriter is about to return with a brand new studio album – after all, he’s had plenty of time on [...]
Café Tacuba celebrates 20th anniversary with world tour
Café Tacuba, the Grammy and Latin Grammy winning outfit out of Naucalpan, Mexico, is getting ready to celebrate its 20th anniversary. And what better way to celebrate/get fans in on the fun as well then with a twentieth anniversary tour that will take the rock legends across Latin America, North America, and Europe over a [...]
Watch: McCartney and Starr reunite; Vedder & others tag along for the fun…
I’ll preface this by saying the following: The Beatles did not reunite on Friday night at Radio City Music Hall. So, for all those saying they did (cough cough NY Daily News), you’re wrong. What is true, however, is that the 1/2 of the The Beatles – the two surviving ones – did reunite on [...]
Album Review: UGK – UGK 4 Life
I usually live by the credo, “If the Beatles couldn’t make a double album devoid of filler, what makes (fill in the blank) think that they can?” But UGK‘s Underground Kingz was a sprawling artistic masterpiece. Pimp C’s death only added pathos. Had this been the conclusion of the UGK story, Underground Kingz would have [...]
Fall Out Boy goes hip-hop
A lot can be said about Fall Out Boy‘s recent decision to “invite” 50 Cent on the road with them this month. Some could say its just Universal Music’s attempt to publicize two of its biggest artists, the latter of which will be celebrating a new album this June. Others might point to the fact [...]
Watch: Phoenix takes “Lisztomania” to SNL
Continuing its trend of tapping musical guests that no one outside of the musical blogosphere has heard of, Saturday Night Live brought Phoenix stateside last night to introduce the America to the splendidly catchy “Lisztomania”, the first single off the French outfit’s forthcoming studio album, Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix. There isn’t much to say about the [...]
Telepathe takes Dance Mother on the road
A few things to know about the future goings on of Telepathe: First, after a short delay, the noise pop duo will finally release its debut album, Dance Mother, on April 14th. In other words, their spacey, rhythmic pop music is set to invade your head and hearts soon. As an added bonus, the nine-track [...]
Low vs Diamond continues road trip
A lot of bands spent a lot of time on the road, but it’s pretty hard to argue that anyone rakes up the millage as much as the rockers of Low Vs Diamond. Since the release of its self-titled debut last April, the Los Angeles outfit has basically been touring nonstop, splitting time between festivals, [...]
Dusting ‘Em Off: Electric Light Orchestra – Eldorado
Electric Light Orchestra was formed in 1970 by Roy Wood and band mastermind Jeff Lynne with the purpose of crafting pop songs with classical overtones that, as Lynne famously declared would be “picking up where The Beatles left off.” While their self-titled 1971 debut was a true tribute to the later stylings of the former [...]
