The annals of music history are filled with once-specific genre names that are now functionally meaningless. "Indie rock" and "EDM" are some recent examples, but back in the '90s, it was "alternative" that got so overused as to become meaningless. In fact, these days it's a term whose non-nostalgic use is largely limited to various music awards shows - including the Grammys, whose 2013 nominations were announced last night. Perhaps more than ever before, this year's crop of "Best Alternative Album" picks raises the question: What does "alternative" even mean in 2012? [...]
Once again, Taylor Swift and LL Cool J came together for a little Grammy co-hosting pomp and cheesiness — this time for The GRAMMY Nominations Concert Live!! , which was broadcast from Nashville. Swift herself, no stranger to racking of industry nods and statues, found herself up for Record Of The Year (for her Hot 100 chart topper "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together"). But it became clear early on that a pair of artists were favorites with capital Fs — well, at least [...]

I just wanna leave the office (it's 7:30pm), go home and have dinner, whilst the GOTYE wants to know WHAT DO YOU WANT ? in new video.
Pop songs are not only catchy, but fairly to-the-point when delivering a message. For the last three years, Dave Werner has been out to remedy that with his annual "Extraneous Lyrics" medleys, whereby the San Franciscan adds in all the words our favorite artists "left out." To wrap up 2012, Dave has served up another highly enjoyable helping by weaving together the year's biggest hits including: Carly Rae Jepsen 's "Call Me Maybe," Taylor Swift 's "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," Gotye 's [...]

Did You Hear? :: Gotye 's smash hit "Somebody That I Used To Know" was the most-streamed song of 2012 based on Spotify's global numbers. He beat out Carly Rae Jepsen 's "Call Me Maybe," with fun. 's "We Are Young" in third. As for album streams, David Guetta 's Nothing But The Beat came out on top, followed by Gotye's Making Mirrors and Drake [...]

Se acerca el final del 2012, un año que musicalmente nos ha dejado grandes momentos: desde el regreso de bandas legendarias como The Rolling Stones o Soundgarden, a la publicación de nuevos trabajos de grupos como Bat For Lashes, que están empezando a labrarse un hueco propio dentro de la complicada escena musical. Sin embargo, si repasamos el listado de las canciones más escuchadas en la plataforma de música en streaming Spotify , es imposible no utilizar la palabra decepción para definir los gustos de más de 15 millones de usuarios en todo el mundo.

In reality, preparing for (and cleaning up after) the holidays can be stressful. But on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon , this time of year is a reason to sing — One Direction , Flo Rida and Rihanna , that is. On Thanksgiving night, Fallon burst into song with Parks And Recreation 's Rashida Jones about the feasts, decorations and drunk uncles that can either make or break the holiday season. Watch particularly [...]

Lotte Kestner: Extra Covers Collection - Warning: listening to this album may cause you to feel some serious emotions and will quite possibly change the way you listen to music. Anna-Lynne Williams’ voice cuts through all the bullshit and fits nicely into the cold, black part of your heart that you thought died long ago when all music started to sound the same. OK, so that may seem a bit melodramatic, but when you are listening to the Extra Covers Collection no other music matters, actually, nothing else in the world matters. You [...]

Whether it's the Grammys, VMAs or AMAs, music awards are notorious for their loose definition of the word "new." Whenever they narrow down the field of worthy emerging artists, there always seems to be at least one wily veteran who weaseled his or her way into the mix. At least for the New Artist Of The Year nominees at this year's American Music Awards (airing November 18), pretty much every act had been around the music biz block by the time 2012 rolled around. If you go by releases, [...]
