Filed under: News , Exclusive , The Hit List Getty Images (2) If it seems like the hip new bands of 2012 remind you of something you've heard before, one, you're old, but two, you're right. The adage "everything old is new again" is particularly applicable to modern music and there are a lot of acts who feel mighty familiar right now. Sensing a time-based forensic piece, we jumped in the Official Spinner [...]

RUINMYTUNE - Breathing in Pain [ mp3 ] House Of Pain – Jump Around Basement Jaxx – Where's Your Head At The Prodigy – Breathe no pain innit, only sonic joy
Helmet & House of Pain - Just another Victim The soundtrack to the 1993 film, Judgment Night, is in my opinion, one of the best motion picture soundtracks ever made. Here is a personal favorite of mine off of the amazing soundtrack. Peace. http://www.helmetmusic.com/ http://www.lacokanostra.com/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/J udgment_Night_%28soundtrack%29

Aww yeah, what's that rising inside you? It's the Friday feeling. End of the week and time to blow out. We're dead pleased to say that this week at GIGANTIC is going to be DJ Andy Campbell 's first solo headline show at the club. We have it on good authority that he has been working on his set all week, and that, in his words, he "has more bombs packed away than Iran for this one". Kaboom! We've had the man himself pick out a few tunes that you can expect to hear at the [...]

Last night the Kano (and Scorcher and Ashley Walters)-starred tv-series "Top Boy" premiered on Channel 4, more about that in a later post cause let's focus on the music.

Watch Justin Timberlake and Jimmy Fallon run through their favorite hip-hop jams on 'Late Night.'
I really miss the sounds from my high school days. Those years of music have become my referential point by which all music I listen to now is judged against.

The best things are worth waiting for though, eh? We sent Paul Caudell to Sonisphere a little over a month ago, and here's his review. Photos by Ben Gibson ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/h ideoutbenphotography/ ). Sonisphere was back for it's 3rd year and we couldn't have be more excited. It was bigger, it was louder and it was thrashier than before. We set off from London to Knebworth House with the Muso's Guide 'Palace of Dreams' in hand and a whole lot of jagermeister to embark on a metal encrusted rock'n'roll weekend, we did it just for you, [...]
It has been a long time since I last visited a proper music festival. I have always hated camping. An attachment to home comforts – colour TV, hi-fi stereo, designer sofa, electricity, running water – exposes me for the materialistic 80s brat that I am. So it was with a degree of apprehension that I [...]

Au départ dubitatif quant au fait que cette édition soit aussi prenante et épuisante que les précédentes quant au fait que le plateau général ait été divisé par deux, nous nous sommes rendu compte lundi matin que 2011 n'avait rien à envier aux autres. Et oui c'est plus d'un mois après le festival que nous lâchons le live report, c'est pour tenter de battre des records de retard, ne vous inquiétez pas ! Cette année nous modifions le concept, chacun de nous sélectionne une série d'artistes et mets ses impressions sans pour autant entrer dans le détail du [...]

Saturday witnesses the emergence of an army of Friar Tucks (largely barring bowl cuts) as sandy robes and naff plastic crosses outnumber bows, arrows and leafy tunics for the weekend's requisite fancy dress day, this time around of a Medieval persuasion. Whilst high-spiritedness remains all-pervasive for the duration, perhaps the merriest of men encountered while down towards the Dorset coast is Howard Marks , who takes full advantage of an early evening vetoing of live music for the sake of a local church service. Delivering warped takes on children's classics from Little Red Riding Hood to Alice in Wonderland, [...]

Na de moeilijke keuze van gisteren, is het vandaag een stuk makkelijker. Mijn minst favoriete nummer, al de afgelopen 15 jaar is House Of Pain's Jump Around. Het is onbegrijpelijk dat de best goede blueszanger Everlast zo'n verschrikkelijk verleden heeft gehad. Wat vind ik dan zo slecht aan het nummer? Tja, de lelijke samples die niet op elkaar aansluiten, het monotone herhalen van steeds hetzelfde lelijke geluid, de matige raps, het weinig creatieve refrein "jump around, jump around, jump up, jump up and get down, jump, jump, jump" en vooral het effect dat het blijkt [...]

In the famous words of Default........ It's been awhile. It's been awhile since I've posted anything on this website but I'm here on this special edition of Thrashing Thursdays to break that dry spell and open the flood gates on some spankin' tunes that have been burning my ears lately. This week's offerings include a MASSIVE banger from Pretty Lights that shows no mercy, a dirty remix of the classic 'Jump Around' from Jantsen who dishes out ample wub wub and a genuine 'get-crunk-to-this' track from Rico Tubbs [...]
