Yesterday night Trent released a new single over the airwaves and interwebs, titled “Discipline.” This comes just barely a month after his NIN released their most recent LP, the instrumental Ghosts. I’m a bit confused by Trent’s new strategy of releasing mass music, seeing how the band’s members are free agents, free from any label restrictions, this shouldn’t be a problem, but too much can really be too much. This can most obviously be seen…
When I heard Porcupine Tree were going to release this mini-album of 4 tracks and 28:44 minutes, I thought it was going to be great. I was right. Since they’ve signed up with Roadrunner Records they’ve made wonders and achieved the success they deserved so much. Roadrunner are notoriously good at getting their acts out there and we’re happy to see such a great colaboration. About ‘Nil Recurring’ there is a lot to be said;…
It’s a Radiohead frenzy mates! They do absolutely nothing for years and years and then they just go and go and go and you just have to talk them. After just yesterday we told you that they’re gonna play a free gig, and a few days ago we let you in on how to ‘Radiohead’ an album, now they’ve launched Nude as the next single from their In Rainbows album. Whatsmore, it will be backed…
The [tag]Depeche Mode[/tag] frontman sophomore release, Hourglass, is fast approaching and as a teaser for things to come Dave has released yet another single. After the first melancholic synth infused single from Gahan’s new album, “Kingdom,” it’s time for a more thrilling track and “Deeper and Deeper” does well to lighten up the mood. It’s sound reminisces the golden years of Depeche Mode, same aggressive sampling and excellent synthesizers toped by what seems somewhat Dave…
This is a few months late but the point here is not to talk about the single itself but how the talented Anette Olzon is able to replace the almost legendary Tarja Turunen; she was asked more or less politely to leave the band in October 2005. Having listened to every track they recorded and admiring their work it is hard to not talk about that. So after about a long search lasting not far…
Regarded by many as the Princess of Pop [tag]Kylie Minogue[/tag] has been on a long hiatus for four year now, due to her dreadful brest cancer illness. She is a strong woman though and she managed to fight with the disease and eventually conquering it; those who’ve watched her live shows part of the Showgirl Greatest Hits tour know what I mean. Now Kylie is preparing to release her 10th studio effort some time in…
Yesterday, 20 August, [tag]Beck[/tag] released his latest single “Time Bomb” via iTunes at 0.99$, you can buy it from other download and retail stores starting 28 August. The old man’s still got it, and hits us with a classic Beck single, with electro vibes, annoying piano line, and a ga-ga-ga chorus. At first listen its quite annoying, but it’s grown on me now, quite fun actually, with doom’s day lyrics about ticking bombs, red alerts…
So you’re having your daily stroll with the car, heading to your local Wal-Mart, listening to your favorite radio station, when all of a sudden a strange deja-vu hits you like a punch to the kisser. You stop the car and say to yourself ‘Man this a [tag]Eagles[/tag] song, but I’ve never heard this before’. That’s because this is their first single in 14 years, called ‘How Long’, released all over the air waves and…
After we had a little sneak preview on [tag]James Blunt[/tag]’s magnificent cover-art for his third album s, his first single of the upcoming LP, suggestively named “1973”, has been released recently. Now James joins the ranks of other famous artists that have named their songs of particular years, whether for it’s significance or just for their plain cool name. Some of you may remember, to name a few, [tag]Smashing Pumpkins[/tag]’s “1979”, or “1985” from the…
‘An End Has A Start’ is the selftitle track of Editors newest album, the second single after ‘Smokers Outside the Hospital Doors’. The single will be out on September 3, and will include the b-side “Open Up” as well, which you may recognize it as the bonus track off the Japanese album edition. The song has a classic Editors sound and vibe, with the trademark exploding guitar wall and Tom Smith commanding vocals. As for…
