Registration for Glastonbury ’10 now open…
Because when you’re Glastonbury, you can do stuff like require registration for a festival some 348 days away, even if it won’t be as good what went down in ’09. Just remember to smile… and the fact that registration does not guarantee you a ticket for Glastonbury ’10 when they go on sale later this [...]
Drummers get together to not Drum for a band called Drummer
So back when Black Keys’ shredder Dan Auerbach started talking about that solo album of his, I remember feeling a little bad for drummer Patrick Carney. He wasn’t included on the studio album and wasn’t found in the guy’s touring band. It seemed a bit weird for a member of a duo to “ditch” his [...]
MGMT’s Time To Pretend gets re-release treatment
To put it bluntly, in the years that have followed the release of MGMT‘s debut EP, Time To Pretend, in 2005, the Brooklyn duo of Ben Goldwasser and Andrew Van Wyngarden has exploded beyond probably even their wildest imaginations. So, it makes sense that Cantora Records remastered the EP’s six tracks and is selling the [...]
Album Review: Gossip – Music for Men
Gossip’s first major label studio album, Music for Men, is a beverage made with natural sugar, lacking the sickening sweetness of other propulsive dance friendly music; but still containing the familiar, and expected, carbonated sting. Produced by bearded wizard, Rick Rubin, the album is sparser than most dance records, leaving more than enough room for [...]
Times New Viking proves VHS is still cool, readies Born Again Revisited
Well, leave it to Times New Viking to up the ante. Just hours after Cheap Trick made headlines with news that it will be release its new album on 8-Track, comes word that the Columbus, Ohio lo-fi rockers get this… delivered the master recordings of their latest studio effort to Matador Records on a Video [...]
Nine Inch Nails delay farewell… add a few more dates
Their appearance at Bonnaroo last much was supposed to be Nine Inch Nails last ever performance in the United States. Note the word was. Today, Trent Reznor announced that following its remaining European engagements, the band will return to the states for few more shows. “Getting right to the point, we’re going to play a [...]
Album Review: Bowerbirds – Upper Air
Find a college campus in any town and within a four-block radius, you’re certain to find a coffee shop holding an open mic night. We’ve all been to that coffee shop in some form. We all know the sound of a sad guy on a bar stool strumming his acoustic guitar, eyes squeezed shut and [...]
The Used looks to paint new picture with Artwork
The Orem, Utah quartet known as The Used has wiped the easel clean for its latest studio effort, a 11-track LP titled Artwork. After all, the band parted ways with long time studio producer John Feldman in hopes of bringing “something different” to its fourth full length studio release. That “something different” turned out to [...]
YouTube Live: Temple of the Dog says “Hello” to Seattle
If you saw a legend in the making, would you know it? For us music-aholics we see countless shows with even more bands hitting the stage all vying for our attention. Out of all ‘em it’s hard to discern just who we will be talking about in the months or years following that set, and [...]
