I’ve been really psyched about the new Mastodon album, especially after I’ve talked a bit about how the band’s hit the studios this week, with producer Brendan O’Brien. Since then I’ve been listening to Mastodon everyday, doing a re-run of their catalog from Remission, to Leviathan, to their last gem Blood Mountain. So you can imagine how the anticipation is building up for me and the thousands of other Mastodon fans around the world. Anyway…
The New York post-punk revivalist trio, Liars, dazzled us with their latest full length, self-titled album, from last year. Now Angus Andrew and co. are back with a new release, this time with a digital EP, in the form of the “Freak Out EP,” available on Mute July 8, 2008. Besides the track titled Freak Out, you won’t find any new songs in the whole tracklist, that numbers six items. The rest are either live…
We’ve written about Josh Groban before, about what would become Amazon best-seller Noel. I thought I knew him – I honestly did! But then, he did something to completely change my mind about him as a man: he appeared in this hilarious video (NSFW), along with Silverman, Kimmel, Damon, Affleck and many more. Now, after watching Awake, I had to change my mind about him as a musician too. Filmed in 2007 in Salt Lake…
In case you haven’t already found out about how Slash got snubbed by Dr. Pepper as part of the drink manufacturer’s recent “Chinese Democracy” promotion, I’m gonna give you a little heads up just so you know what I’m talking about. Dr. Pepper has vowed to give everyone in the U.S. a free can of the drink if Guns N’ Roses’ long-awaited new album, “Chinese Democracy”, is released this year. Everyone, that is, apart from…
The Flood is ending slowly but steadily (I can’t apologize enough for the long waits in between posts) so no more talking just listen. Props to GFC on this post.

Back in late October, disaster struck music fans and internet freedom fighters everywhere around the globe, as the largest music torrent portal, OiNK, was shut down by the Interpol, International Federation of the Phonographic Industry and the British Phonographic Industry. A heck load of commotion went through out the following weeks, with a shocking endorsement and pat on the back from Trent Reznor himself. Now, more then half a year since the incident, people have…
The drought has past, as the swarm of fabulously delicious new music rolls in. I think we’ve just, officially, entered the summer new music, badass festivals bonanza. First up is Weezer and their long awaited sixth studio release, “The Red Album.” Up next, we’ll be making a swift shift from geeky alternative rock to hard core metal, as Disturbed gears up for their forth installment “Indestructible”. Radiohead are also back; no, they haven’t released another…
Credits Is there a bigger musical event this year than the release of the Metallica album? Could be, but I can’t think of any other thing. They’ve got reclaiming, reconquering, and recreating to do – and that’s no easy job, even for them. After the disappointing not-so-impressive St. Anger, true fans are expecting a return to the roots; we’re waiting for the amazing music we know they can do. The amount of attention directed towards…
That’s right boys and girls, the British trio is working on something (we hope will be) just as good, if not better than ‘Black Holes and Revelations’. Back in their study in Italy, drummer Dominic Howard took the time to talk a bit about their work. “About a week ago we just started on some new stuff and actually started playing some new tracks and writing some new songs. So we are just getting the…
