Review - Lazerfest 2012 @ The Central Iowa Expo - Boone, IA 5-13-12 Review - Lazerfest 2012 @ Central Iowa Expo Another Lazerfest has come and gone. It was moved to the Central Iowa Expo Center in Boone, Iowa this year. The old location had a lot of traffic problems and was notorious for being a hellish mud pit when the weather didn't cooperate. The decision may have kept some fans away (not knowing how the new location would pan out), but those who [...]

Your wonderful Wednesday: ► It's a night of crackling modern power-pop at the El Rey Theatre — Ben Kweller headlines behind his new album "Go Fly a Kite," supported by Kentucky's Sleeper Agent , fresh out of Coachella and getting some ink from the Times , and NYC's the Dig , whose sophomore album "Midnight Flowers" is on the way in late May. That's Sleeper Agent's video for "Get Burned," above. ► Talk about your dry spells: Vintage psychedelic rockers Strawberry Alarm Clock play the Satellite behind their first [...]

Win Tickets: Chevelle @ Club Nokia – Los Angeles, CA – 4/25/12 Its been several years since I have seen Chevelle live, but from what I remember these guys rock! If you don't believe me just watch the killer vid at the end of this post. They have released six studio albums and sold over 3 million albums in the United States alone. Chevelle has toured with bands such as Sevendust, 30 seconds to mars, Filter, Machine Head, Powerman 5000 and Evanescence. Chevelle's music is often described as a mix of Tool [...]

Well, I've never done a countdown like this before. It was certainly an experience and there's (appropriately) not much more to say about this. It's an enjoyable episode and I think you'll enjoy it a lot! Thanks so much to my sister for all her help and contributions this week. Countdown #94 ***Featuring*** AWOLNATION The Black Keys Chevelle Foo Fighters Foster the People Fun Gotye Grimes Grouplove Janelle Monae Kimbra Rise Against Young the Giant

By Michel Dussack Back in December, Chevelle released their latest record 'Hats Off to the Bull' to overwhelmingly positive critical reception. On February 29th, they brought the 'Hats Off to the Bull tour' to New York's legendary (and intimate) Irving Plaza to deliver an energetic 90 minute set to a sold out crowd that touched upon nearly every release in the band's 13 year discography. Directly supporting Chevelle on this tour are the Californian rock band known at Middle Class ...

Well, this is when I would prefer to be finishing up a countdown. It's currently Friday evening and it's not even 11 yet! Woohoo! So my sister is coming to stay with us for a week. It's going to be lots of fun and I'm certain we'll listen to lots of music. I can't wait until I have a computer of my own again so that I can DL all these episodes I've been making for like the last 6 weeks and listen to them on my iPod! Countdown #93 [...]

You'll see what I mean when you listen to the episode. I feel like I'm in one of those situations where I'm playing catch-up. I mean, it's not as bad as it used to be, but this is the latest I've been putting a countdown together in MONTHS. I suppose it'll get better, right? Countdown #92 ***Featuring*** AWOLNATION The Black Keys Blink-182 Chevelle Coldplay Foo Fighters Foster the People Fun. featuring Janelle Monae Gotye featuring Kimbra Homer Simpson Rise Against Sleigh Bells Young the Giant

That's right. We have a couple more songs debuting on our chart this week and I'm pretty excited about both of them. One is by an old friend of the countdown and one is by someone we've never seen on the charts before. Listen and enjoy! Also, in a couple of weeks, I'll be hitting Countdown #100. Any ideas about what I should do, if anything, to commemorate the occasion? I'll try to remember to ask on the next podcast, too. Countdown #91 ***Featuring*** AWOLNATION The Black Keys Chevelle Coldplay [...]

We had one new song last week and this week we have two more! So exciting! We also have a very mellow segment on this one, so remember to relax during that part. (I was going to have an exclamation point, but a period is just so much more mellow, you know?) Countdown #90 ***Featuring*** AWOLNATION The Black Keys Bush Chevelle Coldplay Foo Fighters Gotye Featuring Kimbra Foster the People Red Hot Chili Peppers Young the Giant

So, I started recording this one on Friday night. Pretty typical. Then I finished up this evening (It's Saturday night as I type this) and for some reason I got myself worked up about a particular issue. I mean, don't get me wrong. There's not a blue streak of cursing or anything, but I definitely work some stuff out over the course of a couple intros. It'll either be interesting to you or not, but I hope you'll enjoy the music that happens in between! Countdown #89 ***Featuring*** Ben Folds Five The [...]

I think people tend to forget about the Rock On The Range festival. Even though it brings big acts to Columbus, OH on a yearly basis, it's not one of those festivals that sticks out in one's mind when you're planning what fests to head to in the summer. Regardless, ROTR is back this year with a pretty interesting line up. Incubus, Rob Zombie, Shinedown and Marilyn Manson will be headlining the three-day festival which runs from May 18-20 at Crew Stadium. Other acts playing this year include Mastodon, Megadeth, Slash, Chevelle, Volbeat, Theory [...]

JANUS - singer David Scotney, guitarist Mike Tyranski, bassist Alan Quitman and drummer Johnny Salazar - experienced great success with their 2009 debut album, Red Right Return, but the band's new album, NOX AERIS, reveals how far they've come. That musical revelation is the self-produced NOX AERIS, which drops March 27 on REALID Records (through Warner Music Group's Independent Label Group). The first single, "Stains," is already getting spins at WIIL (Chicago), KPNT (St. Louis), WBUZ (Nashville), WJJO (Madison), WWBN ...

We're only a few weeks away from the launch of Chevelle's headlining winter tour with Middle Class Rut and Janus.

Chevelle didn't play in New York City last time they were on tour but they'll be at Irving Plaza on Wednesday February 29th and we want YOU ...

The week went by so fast and yet it was full of stress for most of the people I know. Weird, huh? Well, I know what I always do to destress: Rock out to some Alternative Tunes. The funny thing about this countdown is that the songs can take on a comfort food feel to them. So, pull up a chair and enjoy! Countdown #88 ***Featuring*** The Black Keys Blink-182 Bush Cage the Elephant Chevelle Coldplay Foo Fighters Lifehouse Red Hot Chili Peppers Switchfoot Young the Giant
