Well it’s been a while since we said anything about Radiohead (yeah, right), and they would probably just die without the lack of attention. Yeah, guess what’s their next move? In their next internet assault Radiohead have launched their own social networking site at waste-central.com. I can just smell the lines…Hey, I’m a power user at the Radiohead social network! I made Radiohead front page, etc. So keeping things (as) serious (as possible), it’s not…
Well, Guitar Hero is back to haunt us again! It’s not enough that youtube is filled with kids playing Dragonforce tunes like gods, or that most kids would rather play guitar hero than a real guitar, now it’s even turned against the songwriters of the songs. Well actually, it seems songwriters have turned against the game. Charlie Daniels, writer of the song ‘The Devil Went Down To Georgia’, has slammed the makers of ‘Guitar Hero…
I was a bit skeptical on the success of the comedy folk duo’s tv show, because at first I found the premise a bit uninteresting and well … downright terrible, involving a foreign rock duo trying to making it big in New York. What a cliche. However I’ve been hooked ever since the show premiered on HBO, thanks to the New Zealanders striking good humor and spontaneity. Actually I think Bret McKenzie and Jemaine Clement…
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…
Robin Finck, the man who played in Nine Inch Nails in the mid 1990s then again in 2000, has rejoined the band. Well they say that 2 wrongs don’t make a right, but now they can do just that. After quite some years in which Chinese Democracy has not been released and after the pretty lame NIN release, Ghosts, there was a need for a change in both bands. Finck toured with Trent Reznor and…
April seems to be packed new music, with this week being flooded by new records from the likes of new and old acts alike. FIrst off there’s Nick Cave and his Bad Seeds, who’ve released their latest “Dig, Lazarus, Dig” LP in the UK, at the beginning of last month and are ready for US soil. Then there’s the indie veterans The Breeders, who’ve released their forth record in their long career, the highly anticipated…
Artist name: The Raconteurs Album name: Consolers of the Lonely Label: Warner Bros. Records Gender: Alternative/Blues Release date: March 25, 2008 ZMErating: 9/10 Website: www.theraconteurs.com Two years ago Jack White announced his latest side project, The Raconteurs, with a bang, after the group’s debut record “Broken Boy Soldiers” was very well received. Partly, of course, because of White Stripes’ high notoriety and cult like following. Now, the band has reached record number two in the…
Just yesterday I was saddened but not surprised to see Velvet Revolver kicking Scott Weiland out of the band. They claim that his lifestyle was almost unbearable, complaining about trips to rehab and that kind of stuff; but it’s only fair that the man speaks up for himself. dished Billboard reports that Weiland was very upset about the statement questioning his commitment to the group, when he said that the group was already dead, on…
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…
