In case you might not remember, Atoms for Peace is a supergroup which consists of Radiohead’s Thom York, Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers, longtime Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker and Mauro Refosco. XL Records made a big bubu and published details about the album, something apparently they didn’t want to do. Thankfully, several fans took screenshots before they took it down, and sent it to us. Now, not only do we have a…
Lana Del Rey is absolutely gorgeous, and she has it all: looks, talent, and a huge fan base. Tickets for her shows practically vanished as soon as they were up for sale – which is why she added five new dates for her tour: Birmingham, Glasgow, London, Manchester, and Dublin. Del Rey, real name Lizzy Grant enjoyed massive success with her second album, with the LP alone selling 2.5 million copies. Here’s the entire…
Robbie Williams’ comeback single ‘Candy’ has become the fastest-selling single by a male artist this year after 137,000 copies were snapped up this week, but was banned from BBC Radio 1. I kinda like Robin Williams. Not really my kind of music, maybe not even my kind of guy, but he’s got talent flowing through his every pore, and he really likes to take it to the edge – and over it. This is the…
No Doubt came out after a decade of pause with a really good album (“Push and Shove”), but it’s a real roller coaster form them. The pop superstars posted and then immediately deleted a video of “Looking Hot” following numerous racist complaints. Many viewers complained it was offensive to Native Americans, trivializing their history and culture. Basically, the video looks like a game of Cowboys vs. Indians, and that’s the whole offensive thing. Here’s the…
The pop (sort of) punk band finished recording their fourth album, as frontwoman Hayley Williams announced on her twitter: Getting ready to walk out these studio doors for the last time. #album4 It’s already been three years since their past album, ‘Brand New Eyes’ in 2009, and for Hayley, this album is like “an answered prayer”. The band were working on the album in Los Angeles with producer Justin Meldal-Johnsen – who is most known…
This people, is everything that’s wrong with the music industry! Well, it’s not really everything, but it’s really wrong! UK music retailer HMV banned employees from having long hair and tattoos, claiming they want to attract a broader audience, one that might be offended by such traits. “We’ve got new management. It’s ridiculous and discrimination”, said one member of staff. This does seem discriminatory, doesn’t it? Plus, it just sounds like bad marketing. A big…
Max Cavalera, who also played in Sepultura, Soulfly and Cavalera Conspiracy is now forming yet another group which promises to bring something big to the table. So far, they don’t have a name, but the metal god will join Greg Puciato of the Dillinger Escape Plan, Troy Sanders of Mastodon and former Mars Volta member Dave Elitch. This however shouldn’t be confused Giraffe Tongue Orchestra, another supergroup in-the-making that features a rather suspiciously similar…
In case you’ve never heard of Atoms for Peace well then, it’s your loss! The supergroup consists of Radiohead lead singer Thom Yorke (vocals, guitar and piano), Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea (bass), longtime Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich (guitar, keyboards, synths), Joey Waronker (drums) and Mauro Refosco (percussion) – needless to say, the really rock. Now, they’ve released a new song, What the eyeballs did, one that doesn’t really stand out, but it does…
Oh boy, the Axl soap opera just won’t end! But, this time there’s something good to it: Axl admitted his recent writing is really bad not that good, but points the finger at former band mates (guitarist Slash and bassist Duff) and his supermodel girlfriend Stephanie Seymour. “To those three, it was all crap. It beat me down so much. At the time of the (‘Use Your Illusion’) tours, Slash and Duff said, ‘You’re an…
The country winners of the years were announced, and here’s something new – this year there are actually awards not won by Tailor Swift! Kenny Chesney’s duet with Tim McGraw – “Feel Like a Rock Star” got the big prize, being crowned the CMA Musical Event of the Year, while Toby Keith’s “Red Solo Cup” won CMA Music Video of the Year. Chesney — who has the potential tonight to set a record for the…
