Blink-182 confirms openers, divulges desire to be like Daft Punk
With all that green screen nonsense and talk about how there won’t be a new album for quite a while, it’s easy to forget that Blink-182 is going on tour sometime soon – the lack of actual dates probably have something to do with that as well. But the reunion tour is indeed still on [...]
Pearl Jam’s Jeff Ament injured in robbery
Pearl Jam is currently making good on its promise for a new album. You would think that’s enough to have the entire world collectively pumping its fist. Unfortunately, not everyone in the world is that cool. Per Rolling Stone: Pearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament was the victim of a violent robbery outside Southern Tracks Recording [...]
Modest Mouse has a new song which you can listen to right now
Not a Wilco fan are you? Well, how does some new Modest Mouse sound? Ok, so it’s not entirely new – the band did play it at Letterman a while ago, but from a release standpoint, “Satellite Skin” is brand new. On May 26th, Modest Mouse will release the song and another previously unreleased selection, [...]

Remember Broken Social Scene curated festival scheduled to feature Apostle of Hustle, Beach House, Explosions in the Sky, Rattlesnake Choir, and Thunderheist? Yeah, it’s been canceled.

You can stop rubbing those eyes. Yes, the Ginger King is back! After a two-month hibernation, the beast returns, and as usual, his temper is flaring. What’s bothering him? Oh, just a harmless little game that hardly hurt anybody. Of course, Mr. Michniak thinks otherwise. Folks, this could get ugly — but we like that [...]
Queen + Paul Rodgers loses the Paul Rodgers part
Let’s face it. With a reunion tour with Bad Company looming, Paul Rodgers won’t have much time for other things in the coming months, such as his work as part of Queen + Paul Rodgers. So, it should come as little surprise that English native has confirmed to Billboard.com that he will not take part [...]
Jay-Z goes intimate
Update: Five more dates to come… Jay-Z apparently wants to reconnect with his fans before he releases the long-awaited The Blueprint 3 later this year. Like on an super intimate, non-University of Arizona, personal kind of level. To accomplish this, the New York based hip-hop mogul will embark on a five-date U.S. tour in July [...]
Listen: The Perms
Do you miss the good old days of power pop bands? Bands like the The Beach Boys, The Kinks, or even later groups like Weezer during its “Buddy Holly”-heyday? If you do, then the wait is over. The Perms, hailing from Winnipeg, Canada, is quintessential power pop for the 21st century. Placing the focus on [...]
Watch: The Lonely Island takes the Boat to Fallon (Seriously, you need to watch!)
Last night, The Lonely Island stopped by Late Night with Jimmy Fallon to make its live debut. The result is perhaps the greatest performance late night television has seen in some time.
