The other day at dinner (a delicious vegan "chicken" sandwich and edamame at Native Foods, since I know how y'all love when we talk about food), I was bonding with a new co-worker over Chilean pop music. After gushing over Javiera Mena and Alex Anwandter, inevitably, Club Fonograma came up. When it did, she had a minor flip-out and had to text her friend in D.C., who, like her, is a big fan of the site. "You totally have a fan club in D.C.," she said. Even though I have been able to see the impact of the [...]

Contributed by James Giblin I Get Wet, Andrew W.K.'s first big studio album was released in 2001 about a month and change after 9/11. Pretty much everyone had other things to worry about at the time. We all got to it at our own pace. The music on the album itself is not simple to categorize. It's music that Fox Network can and will use in programming bumpers until the end of time. It's music that lends itself as well to a session of Playstation hockey as it does to a mid-afternoon minivan [...]

I've been reading it since it was not as good as it used to be, and it's remained not as good as it used to be, consistently, since. I've been lucky enough to have had some stuff published in there in the past, which was always a teenage dream. For all its faults, it remains the best weekly pop paper - okay, it would be by default, but you know what I mean. It still has some great people writing for it; it can still surprise and often delight. However much I might wish for a different NME, [...]

This past Friday marked the 19th anniversary of the release of Stain - Living Colour's 3rd album and last before hanging up their cleats for the better part of a decade - so the band's been tweeting some audio and videos odds and ends pertaining to songs on that album. Stain might be my favorite [...]
Earlier this week, I mentioned to my grandmother the 50-year-anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game. Why? Because she's the best storyteller I know and it's always exciting to here her [...]

Together, they are WALK . WALK is a pop rock band from Los Angeles that has been around [...]

words & photos by BBG Integrity @ A389 Anniversary After Weekend Nachos played Sonar's smaller stage on Saturday , the party then moved to the larger stage, where Young and In The Way played their blackened-crust on a candle-lit stage. Black Metal aesthetics and a taut set made YAITW's performance one of my favorites of the day. Make sure and check out the band's new LP V: Eternal Depression [...]
