Queen are apparently considering releasing a new album with unheard demo songs recorded with Freddie Mercury. It was recently revealed that Freddie’s duets with Michael Jackson were set for a future release, but now guitarist Bryan May apparently wants to use them as part of something bigger – adding them to other (currently unfinished) songs from the band’s sessions for 1995 album, “Made In Heaven.” “We thought we’d exhausted everything that was around and could…
It took Soundgarden 16 years to write a new album, but now, apparently, they’ve got the ‘album fever’. After they finish their European tour which starts in September 4 in Helsinki, Finland and ends on September 19 in London, the band announced taking a break from touring. However, this doesn’t mean they’re taking a break from music, as frontman Chris Cornell says: “You know, I think that the overall attitude about keeping it going and…
A little piece of wisdom came today from the Arctic Monkeys, who took a couple of minutes to talk to NME about their new album, ‘AM’ sending drunk texts and practising yoga in Los Angeles. Good stuff.
Usually, we get guitar driven songs covered by electronic/pop artists, so it’s really nice to see it go the other way around. The Nashville band recorded their take on the electronic pop track from Robyn’s 2010 single ‘Dancing On My Own’. The song was actually recorded today, September 10, for BBC Radio 1 Live Lounge. Kings Of Leon will release their sixth album, ‘Mechanical Bull’, on September 24, an album which is more “complicated” and…
Arcade Fire have streamed their new single, Reflektor – the first piece off their upcoming fourth studio LP, featuring vocals from David Bowie. But wait – there’s more! The song premier was immediately followed by the premiere of two music videos for the song. Pretty interesting stuff, you don’t really see two videos for the same song… but then again, there’s probably a reason why you don’t. The first video you’ve probably already seen it…
Now now, don’t get your hopes up – this isn’t about Nirvana reuniting or something like this – it’s about another band with a Nirvana-like impact. “We meant a lot of different things to a lot of different people,” he told the Guardian. “That’s one of the great things about music. You can sing a song to 85,000 people and they’ll sing it back for 85,000 different reasons.” Dave Grohl went further, explaining that the…
We’ve been hearing rumors for almost a year now, but nothing official came out – until now that is. Singer Maynard James Keenan seemingly confirmed what fans have been yearning to hear: he is working on a new Tool album, probably set for release in 2014. Now mind you, this was nowhere near a statement with all the shebang – it is rather implied than said. Maynard waited for his jubilee 666th instagram post and…
The Pixies are on fire! Just a week after releasing their new video ‘Indie Cindy’, they performed two brand new songs at a surprise concert ahead of their forthcoming world tour. The two songs are “Blue Eyed Hexe” and “Green and Blues”, and you can see some fan footage of the band performing the songs here. This was their first live appearance together in almost two years, since November 2011, but fans need not worry:…
‘AM’ – the newest Arctic Monkeys album is up for streaming on iTunes. The album, which is set for release on September 9, is their fifth, and includes some notable guests, including Josh Homme and former member of The Coral, Bill Ryder-Jones. In an interview with Zane Lowe on BBC Radio 1, Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner said that the album title was inspired by the Velvet Underground’s 1985 compilation album VU. “I actually stole…
Source Picture from the Halfway There video The song Halfway There is one of the songs from the band’s latest album, King Animal. I have to remind you that this album is the first one released in 16 years actually (and it’s quite good as well). Even though it is almost a year since its release, the Halfway There video was released today. If you like Soundgarden you might want to…
