The rumors surrounding Led Zep seem more intense and close than ever. During this weekend, these rumors have been intensified by the fact that they have collaborated with Foo Fighters at Wembley Stadium. What should we understand from this? Well basically what happened is that during an encore requested by fans from the Foos, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones joined the band at the huge venue. I don’t know if anybody expected this (I…
Did I tell you how much I love and admire Bob Dylan? Today? In my humble opinion, you can use your fingers to count those who have just half as much experience as him in the music industry. In fact, who doesn’t like him? Even the Counting Crows say in their hit “Mr. Jones” “I wanna be Bob Dylan”. So, here’s how he just rightfully bashed the music industry. Speaking to The Times, Dylan said:…

Pharell and co. were present yesterday night in full swing on the Tonight Show with Leno, where they played “Everyone Nose,” the first single off their upcoming Seeing Sounds LP (out June 10). I personally had the chance to see the band play live on both Letterman a few weeks back, as well as yesterday night and I can say that they’ve done a much better job with the performance. A lot looser and a…
I was just scanning through Blabbermouth, a few moments ago, when I stumbled across a post, that just made go all WTF?! Apparently, during a more or less familiar interview for Norway’s NRK, the KISS bassist/vocalist Gene Simmons confirmed that him, as well as co-founder Paul Stanley will retire from the band, then jokingly or not, he confessed he’s planning to keep the band alive forever. It seems it’s all part of a diabolical master…
John Lydon, or Johnny Rotten as the Sex Pistols frontman is more commonly known, has always had an authority issue, after all the anarchist within him sparked the iconic punk movement, back in the ’70s. His latest mischief, however, is of a more serious manner. It seems Lydon, as reported by TMZ.com, has been sued for physical aggression, by his former assistant Roxane Davis. The lawsuit, filled at the Los Angeles County Superior Court, claims…
As most of you probably know this already, or not, the new Coldplay album, Viva la Vida and All His Friends, leaked out yesterday over every torrent. However, knowing all our readers are law biding citizens *cough, cough* , we decided it would only be fair to share the full album stream for the album and, of course, it’s all legal! Just head over to IHeartMusic and enjoy the ride; if you’re from outside the…
Indeed, times flies when you’re having fun and let me tell you, it’s been one hell of a ride so far. Just one year ago I was having a beer with Andrei, when we both got the idea to materialize our passion for music somehow; writing, then, seemed the simplest way in doing just that, so, shortly after that, on a sunny June afternoon ZME Music was born. So here we are, exactly one year…
Shearwater is on our top list of featured artists for this week, after the band has just released its fifth studio release, Rook. For today we’ve got something special for our readers, as Shearwater’s record label Matador were kind enough to release the mp3 format, for what I like to consider Rook’s standout track, “Leviathan, Bound.’ The song is a real chiller, with delicate, robust and melancholic melody and lyrics, that’s sure to sooth even…
I’m a bit late with this, but I’ve just found out that The Raconteurs were featured on Conan O’Brien’s Late Night Show, where they performed two live songs, from their April surprise record Consolers of the Lonely. To be more specific the band unleashed a vole of roots-rock upon National TV first with the infectious rocker “Many Shades of Black,” which was then soon followed by the fiddle-boosted “Old Enough.” All in all the band…
