Suicide Sundaes – stop your grinnin' and drop your linen. Every Sunday electblake and jsully of Earmilk will bring you the weeks dirty servings, and some old favorites through a throwdown-throwback to simpler times. A time when bangers were big, remixes were bigger, the bassline bled, and we didn't care about anything as long as came in kicking and left screaming. To hell with sketchy sunday, we want to shove another dragon down the hole. This week comes in a Neapolitan - We start off with some bangers, a few mashes [...]
we know next to nothing about these guys except a) they're from spain & b) they rock. la casa azul has also apparently been around for a few years now (their debut album dropped back in 2000), but we just stumbled across them the other day & they're sound is completely legit: they're like ABBA + the beach boys + the shangri-las, i.e. amazing, & also spanish. check out a few of their tunes below, but if we have anything to do w/ it, these won't be the last you hear from la casa azul!! via [...]
Whether you're a pining romantic, fading dance pioneer or violent dictator (see below), everyone deserves a second chance at love. Listening to songs pleading for another try makes you want to know the addressee's response. Some we know – Sandy and Danny reconciled their differences at the fair; America decided yes, it was ready to twist again – but the rest leave you wondering. Was Warren
My niece's reaction to David Bowie got me thinking about musical variety. Kids haven't been programmed to think that weird music is weird yet. In the hopes of coaxing her away from the insipid oldies music that my mom makes her listen to, I wanted to craft a mixtape that would introduce my niece to stuff that I liked when I was younger.
I am in the funkiest mood ever today. The hair looks great, the clothes = on-point and after a shaky start to the day yesterday, the final hours of the day prior turned out mega super rad. But more on that later. Naturally, when good stuff happens for us, we love paying it forward. Hell, you were getting these links anyway, but after all my words, I'm dumping a ton of tracks that I love on you...some for [...]
Originally posted May 15, 2008 "Selling all my records. $40. Call 555-5555 for more information". He could've saved himself the $3 he spent for the newspaper ad and simply emailed me directly. Two hours later, I was in Dick's living room looking at "all" his records: three boxes of albums and a couple of boxes of singles. Turns out Dick sold cars from his front yard for "20-some" years and had some experience stretching the truth. Turns out that "all my records" were the [...]
Here is the second part of musicians who died in 2009. Part 3 will follow early in the new year. I make no claims of having arrived at a complete and exhaustive list of musicians who left us the past year. Some I didn't include because their names or output is unfamiliar to me, or just not my scene; and a few I left out because I have no music by them, and could not find any. Finally, in response to an e-mail, the photo gallery follows the order in which people are [...]

Believe me when I say wtv situation you're in, could be worse...& there is someone out there doing worse then [...]
Christmas-time in Motown hopefully looked a lot more cheery than the picture this compilation paints. Michael and Co. try spicing up tried and true holiday jingles with some R&B lovin', but even classics like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer end up sounding forced, like Santa wasn't coming to Detroit after all. Reminds us of: Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipmunks Greatest Christmas Hits | being stuck in the mall at Christmas | wobbly fruitcake Jackson 5: ( Fan Club ) jackson 5 [...]
Filed under: The Hit List As Cain and Abel could tell you, it ain't always easy for famous siblings to get along. Between artistic temperaments, egos, money, fame and temptation, it's a wonder the bonds of brotherly love can ever survive rock 'n' roll. Here's a ranking of our favorite brother bands -- from saccharine-sweet bromance to stage-brawling near-fratricide. Hanson You think the Hanson brothers couldn't get any more adorable? Well, this [...]
Filed under: News , Exclusive When Michael Jackson passed away earlier this year one of the most moving tributes came from Lenny Kravitz , who penned a touching memorial for Spinner. It got us wondering about some of Kravitz's other musical heroes. The range is as diverse as fans of the singer would expect. "As you read in the Michael Jackson thing, I wouldn't be sitting here talking to you now if it wasn't for Michael Jackson, the Jackson 5 , Berry [...]

Anybody seen the new Jackson Bros. show on A&E? Premiered last night. It can't be as good as The Jacksons: An American Dream (seen above) but compared with Jersey Shore ...?

Yesterday the Rockerfeller Christmas tree was lit up, last weekend people flocked to malls trying to grab up gifts for their beloved, and we are firmly entrenched in yet another holiday season. At this point I'm sure you're being inundated with holiday music whether in the car or in the mall or wherever, but I am here to tell you that not all of it is the unbearable garbage they shill on most of those stations, some of it is truly enjoyable and will only make this season better for you! Remember good music soothes even the most savage of [...]
From Rap Radar : " We're still celebratin' the King. This is the best tune off his finest posthumous release that I've heard thus far. Stevie Wonder wrote the following and how it didn't end up being on an Michael Jackson album before is beyond me. If you don't like this one, get the f-ck off my site and don't you ever come back ." You know me : I co-sign this 1000 - GET AT THIS!!!! Jackson 5 - "Buttercup" (written [...]
