The second album that I know will make my favorites of the year list. Fun.'s Some Nights doesn't really try to be more than it is and there's a beauty in that for me. A good clean pop album should be celebrated and like last year's Real Estate album, that's the territory where this album is landing in for me. There's some serious Queen moments (especially during this indie pop album's onset and title track Some Nights ). C'mon, let's be honest-I didn't stand a chance when they threw in the tribal [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-13T09:21:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4056848/review-biophilia-live-by-bjork-at-museum-of-science/
Photos by G. Bjork Oh Bjork! The Icelandic singer has made an album combining science and nature with the latest in sound technology called "Biophilia." She's promoting the record witha series of concerts at New York's Museum of Science in Queens. I attended the show on February 12, 2012 and when it comes to putting on an amazing live show, Bjork does not disappoint. Backed with a choir, who sounded like a chorus of angels, Bjork performed her entire album "Biophilia" while trippy visuals were shown [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-12T15:25:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4055676/queen-elizabeth-60-years-on-the-throne/

I thought that soul has passed it's time long ago... Suddenly all that changed with Emeli Sand. Her awesome voice and catchy melodies make a perfect blend of modern pop-soul and the video to the song Next To Me represent the artist in her grace. There are also some interesting electro remixes on her youtube [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-11T00:38:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4052758/mambo-queen/
So here's some of that new Gloria Estefan that I blogged about a few weeks back. It's so cheesy, with an appearance by Susan Lucci no less! It's a purposely campy, different direction for Estefan and I don't hate it, I don't think? Unusual, but not totally out of her wheelhouse. And does it sample the Americano beat? If not, it will be remixed with it... One thing's for sure, she looks fantastic and like she's having the time of her life. Get it girl.]]> text/html 2012-02-07T22:52:42+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4044327/riob-episode-february-7-2012/

Four albums deep and our first introduction to Foxy Shazam has been their latest effort and best album of 2012 (so far) sorry Chairlift, ' The Church Of Rock and Roll .' Surely we're not complaining, that just gives us more material to listen to after we've worn out this album. The best modern day attempt to Queen if you ask us and Eric Nally is playing his Freddie Mercury part very very well. Enjoy their latest single + visual for 'I Like It,' and for you newbies... your band crush can begin.]]> text/html 2012-02-07T07:57:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4042371/10-shin-joke/

This disc is being sold by major retailers as a Japanese EMI import but is allegedly a Russian bootleg. Regardless, it is a beautiful package and the two live shows on this disc document what a powerful live act Queen was early in their career. Both shows are sourced from radio broadcasts and are bookended around the release of the band's under-appreciated Queen II album. The first show captures the band a month after Queen II was recorded but six months prior to the album's release. During this show, the band [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-06T20:08:01+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4041399/wezz-wood/

Tweet Warm Weather are exactly what you want them to be - a dancey synth pop LA based band with plenty of boyish charm and heart-crushing soaring harmonies. I was first introduced to their heartthrob drum beats and looping silvery harmonies by Lydia from Sunset In The Rearview . It was their EP "Dances" that I heard initially, and I was completely mesmerized by the twirling synth sounds, only to be distracted from these by quilted vocals in [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-06T15:30:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4040713/theesatisfaction-queens/

En su lugar, el vocalista que deber defender el puesto de Freddie Mercury ser Adam Lambert , el concursante subcampen de la octava temporada de American Idol. El 6 de noviembre de 2011 actu junto a Brian May y Roger Taylor en los MTV EMA's.

This sounds pretty good, a lil snippet from the latest release by Queen Size Records, a small Polish label but I quite like them. This is part of a 7" series with Polish producer Metro, which has featured prominant names such as Rakaa of Dilated Peoples, MED, Wildflower and Guilty Simpson, so it's worth checking out.

I'm struggling to think of under what circumstances 'giving his job to Adam Lambert' could be considered a tribute to Freddie Mercury . -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch]]> text/html 2012-02-04T00:08:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4035930/adam-lambert-is-the-new-frontman-of-queen/
Yeah you just read the headline and probably started shaking your fist and screaming. Calm down, son, it's not bad news at all. Rolling Stone has confirmed that American Idol alum Adam Lambert will be the new frontman for the legendary rock band Queen. Now I know some young, ignorant rock fans will shriek in horror at this news and will call for Lambert to perish in a terrible way while pining for the spirit of Freddie Mercury to return to earth and take his rightful place [...]]]>
