Christopher Victorio/OC WeeklyRadiohead certainly had the most pre-festival buzz for Saturday, but once we got there, we found there was so much more to be excited about. Be it the seeing the reclusiv
We have another show by a Coachella artist to kick off the week! Manchester Orchestra will be performing at Coachella on Saturday, April 14 and Saturday, April 21 at the Empire Polo Club but have a headlining show at the...

Although the gig was late last year my memory of it is still as vivid as ever, not because I was a huge fan prior to the event but instead how it made myself and the others in the audience feel towards the band. Manchester Orchestra as some may know are an alternative rock band hailing from Georgia in the United States and despite not achieving much commercial success on this side of the Atlantic the fans they do have appear to be infinitely more passionate than the majority of British artists. I stood with a few of [...]

Here's some crazy footage of Manchester Orchestra playing this past week in Brazil at this year's Lollapalooza festival. Really kinda mind blowing to see them completely tear through the near hour long setlist in front of such a huge global stage... Humbling really, to see that band in your back pocket reach that pinnacle of success. Good for them. /tear

Alguns refrões ainda ecoam na cabeça daqueles que curtiram as apresentações do primeiro Lollapalooza Brasil , nos dias 07 e 08 de abril, no Jockey Club em São Paulo. O festival acabou, mas para quem estava lá, certos momentos serão sempre lembrados com carinho. Já para os que não puderam prestigiar o evento, fica aquela pontinha de tristeza e a esperança de Perry Farrel realizar outra edição do festival no ano que vem. Mas, para todos os interessados ficam os vídeos. A internet está aí para te ajudar a ver os detalhes que em meio ao [...]

It's another day closer to the first weekend of Coachella! So we thought now would be good time to throw a another contest out there for you guys to score some tickets.

Tickets are still available to purchase online through Ticketmaster for $18.00 plus any additional service fees. But we know why you're here so lets get to it. All you have to [...]

Foto: Fernando Galassi/Rock 'n' Beats " The dirtier the sound, the best I breathe ". Essa não é apenas uma frase criada por Andy Hull para criar uma rima ou sonoridade na violenta faixa I've got friends , de sua banda Manchester Orchestra . Essa frase é um verdadeiro lema de vida, uma declaração de identidade, para o frontman e compositor, e para os seus fãs, que aguardavam em pequena quantidade, dispersos em um grande público de curiosos ou de fanáticos por Arctic Monkeys e Foster The People , [...]

If you missed the not-very-secret-at-all Manchester Orchestra show at the Earl last Friday, I'm going to take a second to rub it in and let you know that it was every bit as epic as you would think it would be. From the opening moments of their performance it was clear that the band was thrilled to be playing in front of their hometown fans in such an intimate venue, and about two dozen gushing Andy Hull thank yous later, the group wrapped up what is sure to be one of the local live music highlights [...]
Wow, this video is incredible. From DANIELS (the same directors who made the equally mind-blowing video for Manchester Orchestra's "Simple Math") comes the first new Shins video in years. Why should I attempt to explain anything when you can watch it right now? Enjoy.

THIS WEEK'S BEST BET: Manchester Orchestra w/ Chris Staples Friday, February 24 The Earl - 466 Flat Shoals Avenue in Atlanta 30316 SOLD OUT! It took me a while to work my way into Simple Math , the third full-length from hometown heroes Manchester Orchestra . My initial reaction was one of disappointment because it seemed to lack the ramshackle pace and sonic heft of their breakthrough LP, Mean Everything to Me . The melodies were certainly there, bold and anthemic, and it [...]

Don't get me wrong; I love Mumford & Sons. But I was thinking... Why have they been to the Grammys twice and received a spread in Rolling Stone, when Manchester Orchestra hasn't been noticed by the former and has barely been given a nod by the latter? Manchester Orchestra has been on Letterman four times. I believe Mumford has only appeared once. Why am I comparing the two? I appreciated the reaction I experienced when hearing a Mumford album about a year ago. It was similar to the pain that is evoked [...]
