The next step for the MySpace generation - revolutionary new website puts unsigned bands in the palms of the Industry's biggest players. New and unsigned bands are finding it increasingly difficult to get their music heard by the right industry professionals that could really get them the help and advice they need. Given this, a brand new revolutionary website has been launched with the sole purpose of bridging the seemingly large gap between talented unsigned artists and heavy weight industry decision makers. The Unsigned [...]
So honestly I have been sitting at my computer every day just contemplating how to get all the music I've missed out on to you and I figured whatever I'd just make a huge list. I'll do something like put a scale out of 5 next to the song so you know what I think about it. It would take way too long for me to post individual posts for each and every song that I have. So here is the master post and then you will see me back on my grind fo sho, fo real, I am back, [...]
Common sense would tell you I should put these posts together on Sunday and have them live first thing Monday morning. However weekends are made for more debaucherous activities, and Monday's are at least intended for more productive work. Got an interesting mix of last weeks music that didn't make a post on EOLA, download the entire zip of em, or take what you like: MP3: Right Click > Save As Download: The Monday's Week 27 (Mediafire, 78mb). Music: 1.) [...]
For a cover to be good it doesn't have to necessarily be better than the original but it certainly helps if it takes a slightly different route. This is why my favorite ones are often gangsta Hip-Hop songs interpreted by poppy musicians. There's just something about white people rapping about money and hoes that gets me every time! A special shout out must go to I Call Shotgun 's cover that not only [...]
If you come here often you already know this: I'm a sucker for covers of hip-hop songs. I don't know why, but it just seems like a good idea to me. Maybe it's the simple, to the point lyrics about getting high, making money, and fucking that is missing in indie rock. Whatever it is, I need more of it. Here is I Call Shotgun covering Nelly's "Ride With Me". Saw it here . It picks up around 1:05. I Call Shotgun - Ride With Me (Nelly Cover) | [...]
Just a quick post today - something from our email that was far too good to pass up. We may have a more lengthy feature on this band in the coming days, but this is all we have to go on for the moment. Like we said, oh so good, though it doesn't appear to be of the same style as the rest of the band's music . Check it. I Call Shotgun - Ride With Me (Nelly Cover) (mp3) And, in case you were wondering, we're pushing back [...]
Axel: Holy shit Train, where you been at? Train: You know son, the models and bottles lifestyle keeps me pretty busy sometimes... Axel: Yeah, whatever you say. Anyway, I brought my friend Billy along, I told him we were going to a cover song party. Train: Then you're at the right place...though I ...
Just got back from a weekend in Bologna, which is absolutely amazing. Italy has been a blast, but it has contributed to the decrease in new material here. You'll be hearing more from Ryan and Claire in the future, and who knows what Adrian is doing. Also, be sure to check the posts we're making over at mtvU (Zack and Adrian). Now onto the meaty part of the post. You may remember the old punk cover of Snoop Dogg's "Gin and Juice" or the painfully ironic Ben Folds cover of "Bitches Ain't Shit" (honestly though, Ben Folds himself [...]

i didn't know much about these british alternative rockers at all until my man albert whose studying abroad in europe put me on. and their music all rocks a lot (check it all at their myspace ), but this song stood out to me in particular because they took nelly's "ride wit' me" and acoustified it to the fullest. imagine if this version dropped first before the hit single?

Friska Viljor - Old Man Razorlight - North London Trash Final Fantasy - Horsetail Feathers I Call Shotgun - Indie Sweat There is not much that can be found on I Call Shotgun on the Net, however the 3-man-group from Leeds have a really cool sound going on, and this song sounds like a real floorfiller to me and their other songs are not far from. Keep an eye, or better an [...]
