During a pivotal scene in American Psycho, Christian Bale's character manically waxed poetic about the music of Huey Lewis & The News , declaring "Their early work was a little too new wave for my tastes, but when Sports came out in '83, I think they really came into their own, commercially and artistically. The whole album has a clear, crisp sound, and a new sheen of consummate professionalism that really gives the songs a big boost." It was that album that propelled the Bay Area-based band into stardom, spawning four Top 10 singles - [...]
The 121st most acclaimed album of all time is cold as ice cream but still as sweet. Dry your eyes, Sunday girl, and join us for another edition of Counterbalance. Mendelsohn: Well, Klinger, I didn't really expect to come across Blondie's Parallel Lines hanging around just outside the Top 100 on the Great List. The only thing I really knew about the band up until a little while ago was that they had helped push hip-hop further into the mainstream consciousness with 1980's "Rapture" and that Deborah Harry worked as a Playboy Bunny waitress in the 1960s, neither of [...]

Good bands, throughout our lifetimes, have been, and will continue to be: a dime a dozen . Great songs, the kinds that spark that instant hint of familiarity within you right away, well those—those aren't so frequent in life, so when they come along it's important to snatch them up and stash them away in our vaults for those times when our souls require simple moments of: feel-good . Wings immediately hits us with that much embraced familiarity of an 802s pop record, the type where the female tones of Stevie [...]

Behind the creative juices of every artist are the musical influences that have helped mold their sound. In order to pay homage to the music that has impacted their maturation as musicians and songwriters, the Melvins decided to record and release a 13-track covers album titled Everybody Loves Sausages, which ...
Editors' Selections is an opportunity for your favorite Dancing Astronaut contributors to talk about some of the music they're listening to that we might not always get an opportunity to post about from week to week.

We've compiled a list of some really creepy songs to celebrate Valentine's Day in style. This is the mixtape that you want to slip under the door of that special someone, but you don't really want them to know. 1. 'No Man Will Ever Love You, Like I Do' - The Raghu Dixit Project Yeah. This is that song. It sounds all good and awesome and about love and you're thinking "Hey, I'm going to sing this to the first person I fall in love with and then they'll think I'm [...]
Vi abbiamo da poco dato l'anteprima di una trentina di secondi sul nuovo brano dei One Direction . One Way or Another è una cover che la band inglese ha inciso per beneficenza in occasione del Red Nose Day di Comic Relief. Il singolo sarà disponibile dal 17 febbraio 2013, pochi giorni in anticipato rispetto al 20 febbraio quando, durante i Brit Awards 2012, il gruppo si esibirà per la prima volta live con il pezzo. Al brano sarà affiancato un video ufficiale che mostrerà le immagini dei One Direction durante il loro viaggio in [...]
The One Direction boys will be releasing this year's Red Nose charity single. The former X Factor contestants opted to cover Blondie's ' One Way Or Another '. The rock track suits the boys very well, however the glossy make-over of this track sorely lacks Deborah Harry original gritty delivery. One Direction’s charity single is out 17th February.
After One Direction announced they'd be covering Blondie 's "One Way or Another" for charity, Daybreak host Richard Arnold asked , "Whose dad came up with that idea? It was 1978, lads." (Their response: "Seems like yesterday to me.") A 30-second snippet of 1D's cover has since surfaced online, and for now, it's enough proof that the British boy band embraced the challenge, generational gap aside. Their take is a more stadium-ready rendition, featuring heavier guitars and a more dramatic build-up at [...]
Queen's "Crazy Little Thing Called Love" New Wave had fully infiltrated the top of the singles charts by the time 1979 had rolled around. Here are the Top 10 Rock Hits of 1979, guaranteed to inspire the return of skinny ties. 10. Fleetwood Mac - "Tusk" Actually one of the few songs to make the Top 10 that wasn't from the world of New Wave. Though people dancing around with tubas is a touch punky, don't you think? http://youtu.be/cma0uziW8DE [...]
