Album Review: Dr. Hollywood – Dr. Hollywood EP
If your sick of LMFAO, like most other people, there is a healthy alternative for you that comes via the city of angels and it might just be the perfect prescription for your dance rock blues. I am of course talking about LA duo Dr. Hollywood who have just released their debut, self titled EP. [...]
Our Interview With The Constellations
Last Week, I, with my good friend Phil, had the pleasure of interviewing Atlanta pop group The Constellations. Phil was there on behalf of Philly’s Basement Show, a blog where they bring you into a more present reality of living now through art, business, and complete bullshit, and we had a intimate interview with the [...]
Grizzly Bear & Allison Schulnik – Forest
Artist Allison Schulnik has released two claymation short films set to the music of the ever-awesome Grizzly Bear. “Forest” is by far my favorite, an Avatar for the surrealist clowns inside all of us. It’s simply stunning.
Click HERE to watch “Forest” and her other film “Hobo Clown”.

Album Review: Infight – The Discoland EP
A lot of times, I get emails from artists saying that their sound falls into the genre of electro-punk/rock, but often times that is the furthest thing from the truth, probably just a marketing ploy, or rather, they don’t know what they are talking about. So when I got this EP from Infight called The [...]
New Smashing Pumpkins Track: Widow Wake My Mind
The 2nd free (of 44 ) track from the new Smashing Pumpkins’ album, Teargarden by Kaleidyscope, “Widow Wake My Mind” has been released for the world to enjoy.
The track, I feel, further moves away from that grungy sound that we all knew them for and puts it on the softer side of the SP world. [...]

Shayna Zaid & The Catch
NYC band, Shayna Zaid & The Catch, blend elements of folk, jazz, indie-pop and just plain awesomeness into their music. They have shared the stage with Norah Jones’ ‘Puss & Boots’, Emily King, the Kin and G-Love to name a few and even were in a nationally aired cotton commercial.
With Violin, mandolins, guitars, and even [...]
Manu Chao – Baionarena
If you know anything about world music or good punk music, you know Manu Chao. This man has traveled all over the world, collaborating and touring with many musicians, indeed even producing an album for the famous duo Amadou & Mariam. His oft-politically charged music transcends language; it’s not unusual to find Chao employing the [...]
Project E.A.R. – Marabahaya
Project E.A.R. has raised a new awareness in me about the state of rock in Southeast Asia. It is actually a supergroup of Malaysia’s famous hip hop rock group Pop Shuvit, Filipino rap metal group Slapshock, hip hop group Ahli Fiqir of Singapore, Indonesian rock band Saint Loco and Thai hip hop groups Thaitanium and [...]
Cafe Tacuba – Volver a Comenzar
Mexican rock bands have a penchant for being f*cking awesome. Bands like Cafe Tacuba, Molotov, Zoe, Plastilina Mosh, Kinky to name a few – these folks bring it and they bring it hard. They incorporated electronic music into their rock for years before it became the thing to do, but never sacrificed rock. Rock is [...]
Beardo – Snort Ur Drugz
Beardo is joining up with fellow friend Micky Avalon to finish off the rest of his 2009 tour. In honor of this occasion he has released a bonus track called “Snort Ur Drugs.” The track is an instrumental version of M.I.A’s “Paper Planes” with Beardo singing/rapping. And like the rest of Beardo’s tracks it s [...]
My Very First Show
So, when i had gone home-home this weekend, my dad tells me that he found something that he thinks I should have. It turns out it was the ticket stub to my very first show– The Smashing Pumpkins w/ garbage.
I was quite ecstatic to have gotten this ticket because I thought it was lost with [...]
Free Download: Joy – Do You Know What It’s Like
Singer/songwriter Joy first came on the scene three years ago with her debut Set Free (available on iTunes). Her music, always full of energy and well written both musically and lyrically, is a combination of rock, funk, and soul.
Joy is back on the soundwaves and has graciously provided a free download of her new song, [...]
Throwback: Smashing Pumpkins – Destination Unknown
So, I was very happy to receive the Smashing Pumpkins Box set, The Aeroplane Flies High. I originally wanted this back in 1996 when it first came out, but since I was only 13 at the time, i didn’t have any money. Fast forward 13 years later and that random memory of me wanting that [...]
Bone Sauce Part II: Dots Make Lines / Lines Make Sounds
Bone Sauce, who we have talked about before on this blog, have released their new album entitled Chooklyn.
The album is good mix of rock and roll with many songs that are very pop worthy. Its funny, listening to them, they sort of remind me of Jimmy Eat World, which is never a bad thing. [...]
New Music Video for Gliss’s single Morning Light
Gliss is a fuzzy, experimental indie rock trio with a bright pop edge straight out of LA. They have previously toured with The Smashing Pumpkins, The Ravonettes, The Editors, The Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and We Are Scientists to name a few.
The first single, from the new album titled Devotion Implosion, is called Morning [...]
Peter Bjorn and John – Living Thing
Finally got a chance to listen to the new Pete Bjorn and John Album. And after a first listen I think I like it.
The songs on the album have the same over arching feel as the first one, but this time around, I felt they experimented a little more with their sound. I couldn’t help [...]
