Pardon the vertical video, but, if you haven't caught this footage of a student berating his teacher for going heavy on the uninspiring workbooks, it might give you a sense of how unimaginative the American classroom has become. Or always was. In Duncanville, Texas, a classmate took out his/her cell phone and recorded another student named Jeff Bliss as he verbally tore up his world history instructor in front of the classroom for her lazy attitude. "If you would just get up and teach us instead of handing 'em a packet yo, there's kids in here that don't [...]
Around about a month ago, Delaware trio FIANCÉ all too fleetingly arose to the surfaces of our attentions with the intoxicating amalgam of electronic and organic that was the therefore inappositely entitled Division though back vying for that same attention, adoration, and all else below can now be found its follow-up in the again beguiling form of For Now. This time that bit more straight-up, the indubitable Local Natives influence sticks about though as the samples subsequently abate, their refined ear for a debonair melody lingering lonesome about the key of despondence becomes that bit more [...]
Yes, I've been waiting for the moment to write about this! One of the largest albums that dropped last year actually came from Sweden's Max Peezay and dropped via a collaboration between All Out Dubstep and Peezay's own label Devrim. Old followers of this site know that I haven't exactly been on his cheerleading squad in the past, quite the opposite... But "F.A.S. 3", that aims on " Phase 3, or employment phase, the name of the last part of the job and development guarantee, labour market programs provided by the Swedish Government in July 2007 ", is well, perfect.

Qualche giorno fa il cast di The Voice U.S. ha cantato il brano " Hallelujah " in memoria delle vittime del Connecticut. Questo pezzo per l'intensità e per l'originalità è noto anche per le molteplici cover realizzati da vari artisti, che accentuano ancora di più la bellezza di questo brano.

Il brano fu pubblicato nel 1984 e inizialmente non ebbe alcun successo commerciale, ma dopo alcuni anni, è cresciuto di popolarità. Ad oggi sono state registrate e pubblicate ufficialmente oltre 200 cover del [...]

Hoy el periódico inglés The Guardian ha publicado una noticia bastante llamativa sobre Jeff Buckley : ya está en fase de producción en Nueva York un musical inspirado en la música del cantante que se estrenará en enero del año que viene. En realidad, el musical será una reinterpretación del clásico de Shakespeare Romeo y Julieta . Las canciones de Buckley serán el hilo conductor y parte de las letras compondrán la obra de teatro. Entre otras, usarán canciones básicas en su discografía como “Lover, You Should Have Come Over” o [...]

It appears that JEFF the Brotherhood are a bit tired of all the partying they did in the clip for “Sixpack” , so to calm things down, they head on over to the always reliable green screen for their latest video for “Leave Me Out”. In true non-fucking giving fashion, the duo put images up of everything from lions to slot machines. Get their latest record, Hypnotic Knights here .
Ostensibly from New York, but very possibly hailing from a galaxy far, far away, Coheed and Cambria return with the latest instalment of their multi-faceted science fiction prog-rock saga. Lead track ‘Domino the Destitute’ features newly reinstated drummer Josh Eppard, back in the fold for the first time since 2005. Punctuated with guitar work and [...]
Fey-voiced and starry-eyed, Tori Amos returns with an album that revisits her back catalogue with an orchestral treatment that is both lush and haunting. Teaser track ‘Flavor’ strips out the downbeat trip-hop elements, and augments her ethereal vocals with an emotive score instead. The result is a very different brew; here is the original stood by [...]

A little while ago one of my four favourite Katzen, Solveig Heilo, cooked up a little home-made version of SBTRKT's 'Hold On' in her kitchen. Bringing Katzenjammer's delightfully quirky, bohemian approach to the song, she gives it a very cool lo-fi interpretation. It's probably making musical history too, being the first track to employ an [...]
School is Cool give us a reason to explore their album ‘Entropology’ with their first UK single release. A bittersweet dose of masterful baroque-pop, the Belgians celebrate 2012’s alleged Mayan apocalypse early with ‘The World Is Gonna End Tonight’. Sprightly strings wrestle with downbeat vocals as lead singer Johannes Genard contemplates the futility of petty [...]

On his latest, Griffen, known for colorful slang, shines a spotlight on the latest Chicago synonym for Air Jordan basketball shoes with, "Jeffs".

"Do the right thing until they get stepped on." Griffen made some major news a couple years ago when he announced that he was signed to Scarface's Facemob label. Since then he's been putting in work on his Facemob debut Apotheosis, and also just dropped the very solid, Ashland Chronicles . Today we get the first leak from his long awaited Facemob debut in the sneaker-themed track, "Jeffs", which slyly utilizes classic audio from "Do The Right Thing". Check it out below.

Produced by Eric Kovaks. With a Do The Right Thing sample playing the background, Griffen pays tribute to Chicago's shoe of choice.

Running a site like this, one thing is for sure; you have to care. I work full time and then spend the majority of my spare time painstakingly checking features, making sure that everything is in its right place, that the pictures look good, that youtube embed codes have the correct ratio... Yep, it gets that exciting. But it does matter. It matters because it's a representation of me - and our contributors - and if I get to the point where I'm half-assed about it then there really isn't any point in doing it anymore. The [...]
