I don’t really have a blog of the day…moment, or year thing going on, but Trees Lounge is a really cool site I stumbled on. Robert there has a cool theme going: The States…songs about the state, etc. And how! Check it out! (link)
Also, the reason I dig the site is because I’ve [...]
Drowned in Sound is breaking the story from an interview with Bloc Party bassist, Gordon Moakes, noting that the band is preparing to release a new album within six months. Pretty big news considering they were on a vast majority of critic’s top albums lists last year.
Bloc Party “Banquet” (mp3)
Bloc Party “Helicopter (Whitey remix)” [...]
I was actually pretty excited to see Rock Kills Kid. After hearing their latest album, Are You Nervous?, I had a good idea of the electronic-based rock that I was going to here. Before the show I was able to head backstage and I meet RKK guitarist Sean, which gave me a cool [...]
I was lucky enough to be invited to join in on a pretty cool podcast put together by Tim of The Face of Today. Some real cool tracks on here, all revolving around the interpretaion of “One.” Check it out rockers: (link).
Nardwuar has long since made a name for himself through his unique, high pitched interviews with which he is known to delve into areas of pop culture history generally unknown to amazed masses. His band, The Evaporators follow suit, living in obscurity while playing music reminiscent of a parade of caffeine induced indie-geeks (the [...]
Here’s an update on DJ Shadow: new song which is a little too crunkish for my taste (not at all), but here it goes:
DJ Shadow “3 Freaks (Feat. Keak Da Sneak & Turf Talk) (mp3)
DJ Shadow “3 Freaks (Feat. Keak Da Sneak & Turf Talk)” (quicktime stream)
The Sword are one of the best new bands this year (new to me) and I can’t seem to get enough of the Iommi-riffs and Ozzy-vocals…without all that pesky Black Sabbath baggage to deal with. “Winter’s Wolves” doesn’t much offer anything breaking in the world of videos, but the tune is rockin’! (link)
Manning checks in with sounds reminiscent of mid ’90s pop-glory along the lines of Matthew Sweet. How fitting as he was a member of indie pop-rock darlings Imperial Drag. Manning’s career has been amazingly expansive, but I first remember seeing Manning as a part of Beck’s band in the Sexx Laws video (which completely blew [...]
I don’t think that there’s an album that I’m looking forward to this year as much as I’m waiting for Tool’s 10,000 Days. The band always delivers something that fascinates me, and I don’t see why the new release would be any different. Though some make the comparison, Pink Floyd, they are not. Every time [...]
Matt Costa’s history seems to precede him coming into the new year. After touring with Jack Johnson, Fader magazine named Costa the #3 thing “You didn’t appreciate enough in 2005.” All that while it’s becoming increasingly popular and acceptable to explore relationships and emotions through acoustic ballads and slow winding lullabies. However, with few exceptions [...]
Gorilla vs. Bear reminded me about the forthcoming Gnarls Barkley album last night, and I thought I’d kick it up a notch and offer a bit of what’s to come. (Official Website) (MySpace site)
Gnarls Barkley “Crazy” (mp3)
Gnarls Barkley “Go Go Gadget Gospel” (mp3)
Gnarls Barkley “Gone Daddy Gone” (mp3 sample)
Gnarls Barkley “Smiley Faces” (mp3 sample)
The Noisettes, hailing from London, have a lot of hype to live up to this year. NME has called them “One of rock n’ roll’s best kept secrets.” URB magazine listed Three Moods of the Noisettes as a 4-star recording. And recently Bloc Party drummer, Matt Tong, said that The Noisettes were the best gig [...]
This 3-song release from the French duo, Justice, dazzles without becoming prey to the electronica of the over-glorified club scene. “Waters of Nazareth” is absolute tech-funk; a hybrid of entirely synthetic, late stage industrial with a late blooming progressive beat. Creating a dreamy sequence while staying miles away from ambient, “Let There Be Light” and [...]
I’ve been a fan of Danko Jones since the release of their single “Bounce” around 1999. With a tight knit, pounding funk rock, I was introduced to the band initially through the music video for the single. I remember being blown away by an abundance of sexually intensified power and I was greatly impressed [...]
From the ruins of the self proclaimed squat-core band Choking Victim emerged the ska & punk influenced Leftover Crack. The band continues to persevere through political persecution and corporate neglect and personal tragedy. I had the opportunity to ask a few questions of lead singer, Stza, and he was gracious enough to take some time [...]
