J. Michelle Martin-Coyne So what are you doing June 16? Are you one of those so conditioned by years of Toronto Radiohead shows selling out in a heartbeat that you tripped over yourself getting tickets for their Downsview gig as soon as they went on sale, even though the new venue was over twice the size of the Amphitheatre and general admission? Or are you one of those conscious of the fact that this is a King Of Limbs tour and realistically speaking, they probably won't be playing the stuff [...]
Photographer, Renae Benavente, takes us for a cruise down memory lane. Pop punk and green hair may make an appearance on this trip.
San Diego photographer and Owl, Hooter Hicks, takes us all the way back with Mustard Plug and Face to Face.
Liz Phair: Turning Japanese [ purchase ] No Use For A Name: Turning Japanese [ purchase ] Asia represent! This well-covered and oft-parodied song is undeniably catchy, as noted by its long life in popular culture. The above image comes from the song's most recent incidence, a stylized art video featuring actress Kirsten Dunst first presented at a Tate Modern exhibit in London two years ago, seemingly in [...]

Tweet We don't write about it much but we love Punk Rock. Though, to be frank with you, it's an on and off relationship. We get on, we've not fallen out, and every-time we get together it's easy, natural and feels, you know, right. But then we don't talk again for a while, everything goes quiet but we never harbour any bad feelings towards one another and I know the door is always open for me to return. Punk Rock is so kind to me. [...]
Dal 25 agosto al 19 settembre torna al Parco Nord di Bologna la Festa dell'Unità , con un programma che anche quest'anno sarà ricco di musica e spettacoli.

Well, it's appropriate that today is my wife's last day of responsibilities at school and our Russian Roulette song is a punk song from Fat Wreck Chords heroes No Use For a Name. I am not too worried about this song getting me in trouble. Punk rockers are on our side, right? :) This album is a fast-paced rocker that's perfect for the first days of summer. Get the whole thing, listen to it, and wreck your living room.....or someone else's living room.....ok, maybe leave the living room alone. No Use For a [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , New Releases When 26-year-old Music 4 Cancer founder Jay Epinat approached No Use for a Name 's Tony Sly to contribute a track to his charity compilation, it seemed rather fortuitous that the singer happened to have a tune called 'Heal' waiting in the wings. "I already had a song recorded, which I didn't use for my solo record, '12 Step Program,'' Sly tells Spinner. "I had been looking [...]
DOWNLOAD: Chris Shiflet & The Dead Peasants - "Bandaged" Long-time Foo Fighter/Me First and the Gimme Gimmes guitarist Chris Shiflett just released his first solo CD (Le Coq Napoleon/RCA) on July 13th. Dialing back the arena rock sound of the Foo Fighters, this album is chock-full of soulful pedal steel and slide guitar-accented songs steeped in Shiflett's longtime appreciation of classic country artists (Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams) and rockabilly (Gene Vincent, Elvis, Eddie Cochran). Shiflett uses these artists as a jumping-off point to go [...]

Dialing back the arena rock sound of the Foo Fighters, Shiflett plays Americana-laced rock songs on his new disc. The album is chock-full of soulful pedal steel- and twang guitar-accented songs steeped in his longtime appreciation of classic country artists (Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams), rockabilly (Gene Vincent, Elvis, [...]
Horrible photo, I know, but I wanted to show you what my neighbours house looks like. We have tour buses, cars, police cars, and pedestrians on our street just to see this Christmas display. They do it for charity, I think they are raising funds for Sick Kids Hospital. It is overpowering but not to bad, it's just that when you drive up to the house your blinded by the lights of the display and cars that are parked looking at the house. Today we finally got our Christmas Tree, Wife picked me up at work (I took [...]

Oh, I feel old today. I went out last night to see Mudhoney and got home way late. Or way early this morning, depending how you look at it. Great show – I'll talk a little more about it in the days to come. But I'm tired as hell today. In the meantime, I've got what would seem at first glance to be an unrelated mix of music. I was looking for a song in my iTunes library and noticed something amusing as I scrolled through the I's: Song after [...]
This probably isn't news to anyone, but the Fat Wreck Chords Web site has a large sampler platter of music – for free ! There is at least a song or two from pretty much every band they have on their label. And pretty much every song is good – all killer, no filler, as they say. I've had the page bookmarked for a long time, meaning to check back and just never got around to it. The other night I was looking around for some information about Minneapolis rockers The Soviettes and saw [...]
No Use for a Name's new record has the sound of their old record, without the strong songs they used to deliver.
