photos by Erik Erikson "While Bad Brains sound has shifted from hardcore and punk to dub and reggae, they still mix it up for the audience coming to see them. Opening with a pounding set of their signature aggressive sound, the music of guitarist Dr. Know and bassist Darrel Jennifer along with drummer Earl Hudson was tight and very intact. Yet, one of the more interesting experience's to everyone was watching singer H.R., dressed in a valor jump suit with a dress shirt and [...]

2011 n'a pas été une année grandiose. C'est p't'être vrai mais j'ai l'impression que ce sentiment est dû au nombre incroyable de disques sortis cette année (Sérieux, ça a toujours été comme ça ou c'est juste parce qu'on peut tout écouter grâce à Internet?) et donc au temps qu'on a pu passer à [...]

So everyone knows that Patti Smith is America's new media darling, and that Just Kids is going to be a movie. But the release of a new Blondie album, Panic of Girls , this week got us thinking about what became of the other denizens of CBGB? As the burgeoning punk nostalgia industry suggests, the downtown scene of the 1970s and early 1980s has officiallly become part of New York's cultural mythology – but as ever, it's a fairly narrow view that's entered the history books. While the likes of Smith, Blondie, and The Ramones are justifiably (if belatedly) [...]
After Iggy Pop, Suicide were the first true punks. Beginning in the early '70s Alan Vega and Martin Rev, heavily influenced by the Velvets and Silver Apples, created a brand new, post-apocalyptic electronic sound that pissed off everyone that heard it. No drums. Just Martin's synthesizer and Alan's gloomy, Elvis-like ...

There was always an element of rock and roll to Suicide so it's perfectly natural Alan Vega would go on to make a record like Jukebox Baby. For further listening check out this very interesting interview with Jarvis Cocker on 6Music . Alan Vega - Jukebox Baby
Watch the band perform 'Bye Bye Bayou' and 'Jump Into the Fire' in their last-ever concert.

All good things must come to an end, and it is with a heavy heart that we announce that LCD Soundsystem are no more. James Murphy's travelling collective did, however, go out in the best way possible: by playing a mammoth set lasting three hours, 41 minutes and 13 seconds at Madison Square Garden. The whole thing was recorded by Pitchfork , and there's a set list below the video. Enjoy. Set 1 Dance Yrself Clean (+ I’m Not In Love by 10cc intro) Drunk Girls [...]
