El cartel es insuperable, con tres bandas de lujo que confirman a BBK Live como uno de los festivales más interesantes y exclusivos [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , New Music , New Releases RCA No less a wise man than Homer Simpson once declared, "To alcohol, the cause of... and solution to... all of life's problems." In the case of Smoke & Jackal , the hastily assembled side-project of Kings of Leon 's Jared Followill and Mona 's Nick Brown , you can also add "catalyst" to [...]

This week sees the release of the utilitarianly titled Banks , the first solo release under his own name by Interpol singer Paul Banks. It's not his first solo release, though — Banks has already put out an album and an EP under the pseudonym Julian Plenti. He appears to have retired the alter ego now, which only makes the whole thing more bizarre — despite the fact that Julian Plenti's records sounded awfully like Interpol, Banks even insisted on being interviewed in character, reputedly refusing to answer questions that weren't addressed to "Julian." In memory of Julian Plenti, [...]

Entre rumores de que o vocalista Caleb Followill precisava de uma rehab para se livrar do vício em álcool, oficialmente a banda alegou que Caleb estava sofrendo de estreese e exaustão, e precisava parar um pouco para cuidar da voz. A pausa fez bem ao Kings. No show que encerrou as apresentações no palco principal da sexta edição do Festival Planeta Terra , a banda se mostrou bem [...]

Jared Followill, il bassista dei Kings of Leon ha anticipato qualcosa sull'uscita del prossimo album della band. In un'intervista alla BBC 6Music ha rivelato che il loro nuovo lavoro dovrebbe essere pronto per il 2013 "Adesso siamo nel processo di scrittura e stiamo procedendo abbastanza velocemente. Entreremo presto in studio ma sapete che non abbiamo progetti nel finire quest'anno ma decisamente nei primi mesi del 2013. Perciò, penso che la gente potrebbe aspettare qualcosa da noi 'più prima che poi" La band sta lavorando al sesto album, [...]

En una entrevista para BBC 6Music , Jared Followill, bajista de Kings Of Leon , ha comentado que los seguidores de la banda deberían esperar un nuevo disco de la formación 'más pronto que tarde', y es que, al parecer, el proceso de composición y grabación está siendo muy rápido. Aparte del hecho de un nuevo álbum del grupo, es una buena noticia porque deja entrever que los problemas que experimentaron en el último tercio de 2011 -con aparición estelar de Caleb borracho incluida- están superados. En concreto, la palabras [...]

Em 6 anos, o Planeta Terra ganhou um espaço especial na agenda de festivais brasileiros. Conquistando a cada ano novas dimensões, fazendo todo mundo se acostumar com ingressos que se esgotavam rapidamente. E a edição de 2012 vem com mundaças. Depois das primeiras edições lendárias na Vila dos Galpões e da temporada lúdica no Playcenter, o Planeta Terra tem um novo começo, com uma nova casa (e maior) e o desafio de preenchê-la testando a fidelidade de seu público e apostando em atrações de emoções: do fanatismo de qualquer geração, dos hypes dos últimos anos ou da esperança [...]

Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder continued his recent string of on-stage guests spots in San Francisco last night, joining Kings of Leon for a performance of "The Bucket" from the latter's 2004 album Aha Shake Heartbreak . If you're wondering why these guys were in the same room, it's because Oracle paid PJ and KoL lots of money to play their Oracle Appreciation Event. This latest guest spot follows Vedder's recent appearances at Tom Petty's concert in Amsterdam , Bruce Springsteen's back-to-back shows at Wrigley Field and The Gaslight Anthem's [...]

The Presidents of the United States of America photo by Ron Henry Wondering where a certain record might land in KEXP’s countdown of the top albums of the last 40 years ? You’re not the only one. KEXP reached out to some of our favorite Seattle music writers and asked them to predict what records they anticipated seeing in the voter final results. These aren’t personal Top Ten or Best Of lists, but “educated guesses” based on each individual’s expertise in a certain genre as well as his or her familiarity with the musical universe [...]
Musicians make mistakes, too. They're only human, after all. But that doesn't stop us from delighting in a bit of good-natured Schadenfreude when a performance devolves into a total train wreck. This week has seen its share of disappointment when it comes to live music, including an abrupt end to Jack White's concert at Radio City Music Hall and the Biebs losing his lunch in the middle of a 105-minute-long set. In light of such mishaps, we've put together a list of some of the most notoriously awful, embarrassing, or otherwise disastrous live performances in recent [...]
Letchworth's Blonde Louis have been hard at work behind the scenes on a four-part video series that I was informed about just days ago. The Cover Story series will consist of stripped down songs, some new by the band and and some incredible cover versions of other artists' masterpieces. First up is a gorgeously filmed cover version of Kings of Leon 's 'Pyro'. Watch it below. Click here to view the embedded video.
