Dave Grohl is a busy man. Since putting out 2011’s Wasting Light, he made a documentary, made music with people from that documentary, started planning a tour with some of those people, played drums for a few different bands, and sorta kinda got Nirvana back together for one night. Well, apparently we can add to that list the fact that new FF music is coming. He recently told MTV News: […] we have a plan, we…
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie
Michael Belsar and Guy Chappell from Twinsy Almost a year ago the water works began at the announcement that Jet was breaking up. The sun seemed to be setting on Australian alternative rock music. However, new innovative bands are arriving on the scene and providing a fresh sound that is giving hope to everyone’s inner-Aussie. Last Dinosaurs was the first band to really step out of the outback. These young indie…

President Obama released a playlist for Inauguration Day
The president’s second term starts next week, and he’s released a 17-song playlist on Spotify in order to celebrate it. Included in it are Alicia Keys, Smokey Robinson, Brad Paisley and Stevie Wonder. Not bad. The one complaint I have is that he included “The Edge of Glory” by the Glee Cast, and not the far superior original. You can hear the playlist here, and view the playlist below. 1. “Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I’m Yours)” – Stevie…
Justin Timberlake also put out a new single, “Suit & Tie”
Yeah, so another artist from the Aughts put out a comeback single of sorts. But, unlike the one earlier this week, JT’s “Suit & Tie” is worth hearing more than once. You can hear the song on his site, or you can stream it below. The good news is, this song’s old-school. He ain’t looking to the future with this, but instead going to music before he was born. (Ya know, the good stuff.) Horns…
Destiny’s Child return with new track “Nuclear”

So there’s apparently a band called Fuckhammer
Yup, you totally just read that. There’s a band from Belfast, Ireland called Fuckhammer. This is not a joke. There is an actual band making actual music called Fuckhammer. And they have an EP from 2011 called Hammered to Fuck. And they have some really, really fucked up art to go with it: In case you were wondering just what they play, it’s metal. Which was probably your guess. They mix a little D-beat, a…
Dave Grohl wants to create super-supergroup, with members of Nirvana, Fleetwood Mac, Rage Against the Machine and many more
Supergroups are not really a novelty or a shock, but what Dave Grohl is planning is just crazy: he wants to create a group called the Sound City Players, with Fleetwood Mac’s Stevie Nicks, Nirvana’s Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear (long time colaborator, Creedence Clearwater Revival’s John Fogerty, Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins, Nate Mendel and Chris Shiflett, Alain Johannes, Chris Goss, Cheap Trick’s Rick Nielsen, Rage Against The Machine drummer Brad Wilk and more (not…
First song from the new Jimi Hendrix album released [listen here]
There’s been a lot of discussion about the upcoming posthumous Jimi Hendrix album “People, Hell And Angels” – and I know I’ve been really holding my breath working for it. Now, we can listen to the first song, simply called “Somewhere”. Go ahead, listen to it. This is classic Jimi, classic drenched guitar sound, classic solo – it’s got it all! Also, the bass from Stephen Stills is just spot on. After listening to it…
