If you happen to be have a 'thing' for punk rock music, then you may want to celebrate your Christmas (if you want to celebrate it at all) in a punchier, grittier way than most people do, with riffs and drums and all. Well, Zeon got it covered here at his blog. Normally, I wouldn't really get a kick out of listening to these bands, but it's the holiday season, and here they've done quite a good job of rocking up holiday songs, traditional and new. Good enough to make you nod your head and bodyrock to. So if this [...]

February 6th should be a very large day. Not only does the new Bloc Party LP drop, but so too does the new Fall Out Boy record. Love 'em or hate 'em, the CD is destined to sell an infinite number of records. The first single has hit the airwaves and is entitled This Ain't A Scene, It's An Arms Race. Upon first listen it reminded me of a My Chemical Romance kind of tactic but with each listen it becomes more and more Fall Out Boy. It is different [...]

I've got a busy working week ahead of me, so there won't be many updates. Really depends on how much motivation I'll have left by the evenings to turn on the computer at home and search for new stuff. Well, no use moaning already. But I know that I'll be happy when Friday comes... hope it comes quickly! Men At Work - Down Under [...]

Now, let's just sort this out if we can... Jessica Simpson's headline-cluttering relationship with John Mayer (the American James Blunt) seems to have lasted only as long the press release took to read, presumably to allow Jessica to adopt her lucrative new character as "unlucky in love": "I think I'm too hard to be in love with. It ends up on the cover of every magazine. I scare people away. I'm a lot to take on." "I wish I was in love, I need to be in love." "I regret [...]
There's some good news about the state of the planet: Pete Wentz reckons the fourth Fall Out Boy album will reduce temperatures by one degree . Unfortunately, that doesn't factor in the environmental waste of producing large numbers of albums that lose their appeal the moment their owners hit puberty, but we're sure that every little will help. music fall out boy pete wentz

Girl Talk's Night Ripper , this summer's hot blogness, has inspired many conversations between us music geeks. When I got the CD, I grabbed my pad and paper and started scribbling down every sample that I thought I recognized, however challenging it was. So then I e-mailed Heather of I Am Fuel, You Are Friends and after talking about a collaborative post lo and behold she sent me the wiki link to a list of samples and it made our [...]
Well, I'm doing a whole lot better today, thank goodness, though I'm still resting up at home and not in the office. The main agenda for the day has been eating dry toast, listening to Nilsson and The Format, and sending way too many emails. Thrills! That being said, doesn't that make it a remix kind of day...? Robots! Robots with vocoders are talking over the world, I tell you! MSTRKRFT -- Work On You (Para One Remix) I love semi-crappy [...]
