The Finnish quartet has delighted us once again with another great video: “I Don’t Care”. This time, they worked with Three Days Grace frontman Adam Gontier, which also appears in the clip. The video can be watched here. But if you think this is the only thing they’ve been up to, you’re really wrong. They enlisted the help of Fuel frontman Toryn Green to handle the lead vocals for their North American tour, which began…

Music Rising, is a world renowned charity organization, co-founded by the U2 lead guitarist The Edge, that seeks to bring back life and a spark of hope into people’s life, by reviving the local musical culture in the Central Gulf region of the U.S. in the wake of several disastrous hurricanes. Basically what they do is hold free concerts and give away loads of instruments to unfortunate artists. This of course costs money and with…
I wouldn’t dare to guess what will really happen to Led Zep; ever since their O2 gig (actually, even before that), there have been all sort of rumors and “certainties” surrounding the band. At first, a tour seemed almost certain, and it was set for September. Then the word was out that Led Zep will not tour. After all these things, now it seems there will be some shows. Yeah, as it turns out, they’ll…
Whoa there just for a minute; they didn’t break up or anything, they just decided to take a well deserved break, of at least a year. With the situation being as it is, Anthony Kiedis has taken on a new role as festival curator for Pittsburgh’s New American Music Festival August 8 – 9. Besides that, he took the time to talk to rolling stone, and he definitely has some interesting things to say: “We’re…
Artist name: Jason Mraz Album name: We Sing, We Dance, We Steal Things Label: Atlantic Genre: Alternative Rock / Adult Contemporary Release date: May 13, 2008 ZMErating: 7/10 Website: www.jasonmraz.com He’s sung, he’s danced, and I’m sure he’s stolen things.

Before the album was released, 3 EPs containing the rawest, original demo tracks of…
There’s no doubt about it, Tom Waits is a very cool cat. Few people are as slick and sharp as Mr. Waits, a man who’s virtually portraits the perfect entertainer role, but when you can successfully entertain yourself you reach a whole other level, and seeing how Tom Waits is the depiction of coolness there’s no doubt about we’ll be in for some fun. What I’m talking about is the latest interview that had Tom…
I’ve been really digging Death Cab For Cutie’s latest studio effort, Narrow Stairs, a very diverse record, with a lot of sound layers and a somewhat, new musical direction, as the band treads deeper into darker territory, a lot darker then anything DCFC has put out. All the songs are pretty awesome, with a personal emphasis for their first single, off the record, the stalker-like anthem, 8 minute long epic “I Will Possess Your Heart.”…
Right on the heels of their recently completed European spring tour and newly released album, the San Jose quartet Xiu Xiu are gearing up for yet another tour, this time in North America for some mid-summer performances. The tour will start up in mid August in the sunny California, after which the band will be traveling through out the country, playing venue after venue, before finally returning to California, San Fransisco, some time in September. …
Things are more and more shaping up like Beck is gonna release his upcoming Danger Mouse produced album, “Modern Guilt,” in a Raconteresque, out of the blue manner, as the singer/songwriter recently unveiled his first single off the album (or is it the second?), the haunting, psychedelic-like “Chemtrails.” Our colleagues from Rolling Stone, after a short preview, said the album channels British rock of the 1960s and upon our first listen of Chemtrails we could…
