Our top 25 band names of 2011 (so far...) really made us smirk just reading them. As we mentinoed in our 25-50 best band names, band-name creativity is something that will be the band's trademark. Sure, the band could break up, dive off in a different direction and create a whole new pseudonym. But a band name lives on forever and depending on the band's stardom, becomes a household name. Just as we all have done in the past (and still do), creating a band name is almost as much fun as making the music itself. These bands [...]

Francis Bacon Twee keer Francis. Twee keer goed, maar wel twee keer anders. Duurt Lang heeft twee tips in de aanbieding waar Francis de hoofdrol in speelt: Benjamin Francis Leftwich en Francis International Airport.

I am accustomed to quality material from Twentyseven Media. The NYC-based label broke out local bands like The Drums and This Is Ivy League, exposed underrated Swedish gems (Acid House Kings, Irene, Pelle Carlberg) to American audiences, and are headed by people who are music fans first and foremost. If founder Clyde Erwin Barretto focused [...]

Apparently I'm a mix addict as of late. A real mixer of songs, if you will. I dont know if they're truly mixtapes since they're not full length, but rather than bore the few readers out there and myself with a full 10-12 mix, i think its good to keep it to 5-7 songs. Since its a summer Friday I thought it would be good to post some easy going songs, a few ambient ones, and a few that are good for a Friday / Saturday summer day. Give it a listen. These [...]
