Awesome news, everybody! No Doubt is finally re-grouping after a very long absence and is set to embark on a new tour, probably, right after their new album is out – as reported by nodoubt.com. Last year we reported that the band was working hard in the studio on a new album, but because Gwen was busy with her solo tour, progress has been slow. The band last played together in 2004 and since then…
Krist Novoselic and what’s (maybe) the worst bass throw in history
The year is 1992. Nirvana is in full swing by now, after releasing what would become one of the decade’s most influential record – “Nevermind.” Of course, back then the annual MTV Music Awars was something every artist and teen alike was looking forward to every year, but something really weird happen in ’92, which, to this day, after 16 years, still remains one of the most awkward moments in televised history. If you remeber…
Coldplay set fot a break up next year [?]
Some news broke up earlier on NME, concerning a possible Coldplay disbanding, sometime next year. The whole thing was and is still considered only a rumor, but from then till now, it has been taken down by the NME officials, thus giving us reasons to believe there must be some spark of truth to the story after all. After a bit of diging around, we come across this quote. “I’m 31 now and I don’t…
The Strokes to return next summer with a new album
The garage rock revivalists have been on hiatus for quite a while now, but, apparently, the band’s going to get together soon and try some new things out, at least that’s what The Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti recently stated. According to Fabrizio, the band will reform and hit the studio to start working on a follow-up to their previous 2006 effort, “First Impressions On Earth”. “We have plans of meeting up all of us together…
Rick Astley: best. act. ever
If any proof was relevant or even need, Rick Astley received the Best Act Ever Award, yesterday night at the EMAs, proving his fans ‘never gave him up’ either. Sadly, Rick wasn’t present at the EMAs to pick up the award or even sing his smashing hit song, “Never Gonna Give You Up.” In his absence, though, the Award was picked up by Katy Perry and Perez Hilton who charmed the audience with a quick…
Will.I.Am writes new song in honor of Obama’s victory
Finally, it’s over! After months and months of politically blabbering, when where ever you turned you’d hear only Obama vs McCain vs Palin vs Clinton vs bla bla, talks. I was beginning to have it up to here, you know. I can barely express how much I’m glad this whole elections mambo jambo is over. As expected, everybody’s homeboy, Barack Obama, won easily over his republican counterpart today, open a new era of “Change.” Or…
Led Zeppelin, Robert Plant, a soap opera and a bag of chips
Chinese Democracy album art and tracklist revealed
I didn’t want to believe it when I first heard “Chinese Democracy” was gonna finally go live sometime this year, but it seems more and more veridic that the fact is, indeed, happening! The 14 years album in the making by what’s left of the Guns N’ Roses, just a shadow of its former, glorious self, is, as previously reported a while back, going to officially hit BestBuy stores (where the album will be released…
In Rainbows sale stats unveiled
The so called Radiohead In Rainbows model has been praised, criticized, analyzed, turned over and regurgitated so many times I’ve lost count myself. Their act of musical revolt against the major labels and conventionality for that matter, has lead to a wave of enlightenment among similar bands, who’ve since then released albums under the same technique. Trent Reznor’s Nine Inch Nails is the first example that comes to mind, mimicking the Radiohead effect not once,…
Led Zeppelin to reform with Myles Kennedy on deck ?
And the saga continues… Yes, I know this Led Zeppelin reunion crap has been going on for too long. Ever since their infamous O2 gig, things have been hectic, to say the least. First the band met for some talks in January, then various people began to hint towards a reforming and even possibly a new album! This despite their long time frontman, Robert Plant, denied the whole things repeatedly, because he wants to concentrate…
