Los escoceses de Primal Scream están ofendidos por la utilización de su hit de 1994 Rocks en el popular programa televisivo británico X Factor . La canción fue interpretada el pasado sábado (22 de octubre) por el concursante Frankie Cocozza, como parte de la "semana rock" correspondiente al mencionado reality show. Pero la banda de Bobby Gillespie no tardó en expresar su descontento. En su cuenta oficial de Twitter [...]

Time is a valuable thing, and the musicians who can make a quick point in a short amount of time deserve their props. We've put together a quick list of ten excellent songs from indie's past (and from a few associated genres), all of which end in 120 seconds or less. These tracks throw their shit on the table right away, drive their points home as fast as possible, and end quickly enough that they're still rattling around in your head long after the next track has already started. The best part: You can listen to the whole playlist in [...]

Once the perpetrator of internal ear destruction with a vitriolic brand of hard-as-knuckles, penetrative hardcore, The Icarus Line has incontrovertibly become the Joe Cardamone show. It's gone ten by the time he cocksurely struts onstage with the canny conviction of a gambling, toothless jailbird, flouting the smoking ban as the perfume from his roll-up washes over his admirers. And admire is precisely what many are here to do: the agitated fidget, commenting on his petite stature: "he's smaller than I imagined" and the like, garbled anxiously and excitedly. However while Cardamone's more contemporary material makes Mono and Penance [...]

If Screamadelica-era Primal Scream had happened upon Cults' Madeline Follin two decades ago (may seem somewhat implausible, although she did reportedly sign her first recording contract only slightly later at the tender age of nine), kept Andrew Weatherall onboard, and roped in another contemporary prodigy on production duties in the form of our fave Finn, Drifter , there's a whiff of a possibility that the result would come out sounding something like Illuminations, the first track to be lifted from a forthcoming EP entitled Making Waves, by London-based trio Sunless '97 .

Primal Scream bring their Screamadelica show to Dublin live at The O2, Dublin on Thursday 29th December. Tickets are on sale this Friday at €44.05 plus fees.
It was the Conservative Party Conference this week, the third of the three main UK political parties' annual get togethers. As you'll probably have seen, Prime Minister David Cameron sparked controversy when he suggested that everyone should help out the economy by just paying off their debts. Aside from the fact that he apparently thinks we're all just in debt for the fun of it, we've previously been told to help the economy by spending more money, so I don't know what to believe any more. I guess I'll just pay off all my debts using a credit [...]

La banda, que recientemente estuvo de visita en nuestro país presentando Screamadelica Live , está "totalmente disgustada" luego de que el Partido Conservador inglés utilizara su hit de 1994 Rocks para cerrar un acto político. Primal Scream emitió un comunicado luego de que la Ministra del Interior, Theresa May , pusiera la canción al final de su discurso del día 4 de octubre. El comunicado dice: " Primal Scream está [...]
Cougar scribe Olivia was already heading to the Isle Of Wight when we asked if she could write a short account for us. Here is what she liked: If there was one festival I was looking forward to this summer it definitely had to be Bestival. The Isle of Wight based festivity boasted an incredible lineup [...]

Someday, Diana Nyad will swim all the way from Cuba to Florida - or she'll die trying, going down in a fit of fins and shark teeth and blood and waterproof flashbulbs on some Jaws 3D&n
Hace una semana Primal Scream saltaba de nuevo a las páginas de noticias ya que su vocalista desvelaba en una entrevista que la banda escocesa ya se encuentra ultimando los detalles del nuevo disco. Se tratará de la primera producción después del aclamado Beautiful Future , una delicia de trabajo que ya tiene 3 años y que nos dejó grandes canciones como "Can't Go Back" o "Zombie Man". Con 9 discazos de estudio a las espaldas, volverán con un décimo trabajo, aunque no sin antes haber vuelto a explorar el territorio de los [...]

Reissues and boxed sets. If you've been paying any attention to industry news, the world is being completely inundated with them as of late. With the recent 20th birthdays of two of my all-time favorite records by * Primal Scream and Ride it is hard to avoid them. There is one stand out this autumn, however, that blows all others out of the water. With all the bells, whistles and sleeves-a-plenty, one might say that life is imitating art . Sort of…I mean, no dead stars, literally. You guessed it - The Smiths. The [...]

Después de una larga espera para ver al grupo inglés Primal Scream, ayer pudimos asistir al concierto en el Centro de Espectáculos Premier, ciudad de México.

Por que vienen presentando integro uno de los mejores discos de la historia del rock a 20 años de su lanzamiento, así de fácil. Aún quedan algunos boletos disponibles, no pierdas esta oportunidad histórica. "El punk fue divertido pero odiábamos la música de los 80.

Por Juan Pablo Lima Alguna vez tuve un contrapunto con un profesor de la Universidad, por un ensayo que debía entregar para su materia. Básicamente, el conflicto surgió cuando traté de explicarle que mi composición no era el fiel reflejo de mi pensamiento, sino que éste se tuvo que amoldar a la consigna de trabajo establecida. La respuesta que recibí fue tajante: "no te preocupes por eso, uno es lo que escribe, siempre" . Renegué entonces y reniego ahora de esa sentencia. ¿Cómo que uno es lo que escribe? Yo soy yo, y lo que [...]
