2007 was the year of reunions, but 2008 doesn’t fall too much behind neither, with more and more previously iconic acts getting back together. One of these acts is also the shoegazing pioneers My Bloody Valentine, a true sensation of the late ’80s. Back in November, frontman Kevin Shields, announced the band’s reforming and moreover fueled rumors that a new LP is in the making. Soon after fans were ecstatic to find out the band…
A while backed we listed the dates for Plants And Animals’ brief tour, in support of their debut full length album, Parc Avenue. Now, the fun continues as the Canadian indie rockers have added a string of new tour dates, including West Coast venues. This the first time the band will play on the West Coast. Tour dates after the jump.
I already bought my ticket for the Iron Maiden tour! Hope you have yours, cause there’s pretty much sold out; except for ebay perhaps, but that’s always taking a chance. Anyway, what could be better than going to an extraordinary event such as an Iron Maiden gig? Going to an Iron Maiden gig and seeing Anthrax too! That’s right, the metal legends have announced a short spring tour, kicking off with a warmup club show…
For those of you a bit unfamiliarized with the band, here’s a quick rock history lesson. Mudcrutch was mid ’70s rock band from Florida, that was packed with potential and talent, but unfortunately never made it big. The band apparently broke up prematurely, as they didn’t even record a proper studio album debut, but while Mudcrutch didn’t manage to achieve success, it did however spawn one of the most popular acts ever seen in the…
Judas Priest’s much-anticipated new album, “Nostradamus” will be released in Germany on June 13 via Sony/BMG, on June 15 in the rest of Europe and June 17 in North America. It promises to be really something; aside from the music it will be delivered in a ewel case, as a deluxe digibook and as a special box set containing the new album on three LPs, a 48-page book and a poster. But fans are concerned…
Yes, you’ve read it right folks, Prince has been added to this year’s Coachella lineup, as a Saturday (4/26) headline, joining other acts like Breeders, Portishead, MMJ, Kraftwerk, or Roger Waters. When he’s not suing fans, his royal majesty, Prince, actually makes some music. To be honest I pretty much despise Prince for all that he represents, but while it’s clear I’m not anywhere near being a fan, I have to admit he’s a great…
Is this the summer of vanity or what? Believe it or not ego-lords Oasis and master of arrogant hairdos Ryan Adams are teaming up for a joint tour, at the beginning of the summer. The dates have been mapped and apparently the two acts will be seen play through out the great white plains of Canada and a bit of the USA. Actually this is Oasis’ first ever Canadian tour and the first time the…
It’s official mates, STP are back together, and the Weiland saga continues. After a five-year breakup and nearly eight-year absence from the concert scene, Stone Temple Pilots will reunite for the North American tour. Monday, the band members (Singer Scott Weiland, guitarist Dean DeLeo, bassist Robert DeLeo and drummer Eric Kretz) made the details of their North American tour public. The tour will include 65 gigs and it will begin in Ohio. “The story’s not…
Well we haven’t heard anything about Oasis for quite a while, that is if you don’t count the fact that Noel Gallagher sold his house because of James Blunt. But we know they’ve been working hard on their album. Whatsmore, now they announced that they’re going to hit the road again; actually they are coming to North America this summer for a short run of dates that will culminate with a headlining performance at Toronto’s…
A few weeks ago we unveiled 13 of the 41 scheduled bands to play at this year’s Pitchfork Music Festival, in Chicago’s Union Park from July 18-20, including Animal Collective, Public Enemy or Vampire Weekend. Yesterday night the P4K officials just released a list of 13 more acts, that are set to play at the festival, among which Dinosaur Jr., Ghostface and Raekwon of the Wu-Tang Clan performing together, and Jarvis Cocker (on his first…
