Refused en Coachella 2012 / Foto: Toni François Texto: @rulobn Desde sus primeros años , el festival de Coachella se ha caracterizado por tener una capacidad de convencimiento enorme y lograr que muchas bandas de diferentes tamaños, decidan volverse a reunir y presentarse en alguno de los escenarios que forman parte de este famoso evento de música y arte. La credibilidad que ha conseguido el festival y su creador Paul Tollett a lo largo de los años, así como el impacto internacional que ha desarrollado, es sin duda [...]

Daft Punk en Coachella 2006 El festival Coachella es uno de los que provocan más emoción e historias de todo el mundo, además del exorbitante ruido que genera alrededor del cartel, aún semanas antes de ver la luz. Toda esta euforia sólo sucede por una razón: las memorables presentaciones de los artistas que pasan por Indio, California, cada año. Coachella se ha caracterizado por darnos conciertos especiales, conciertos que no podremos ver ni vivir en otro lugar. Algunas son reuniones que creíamos imposibles, otras presentaciones únicos o actuaciones que jamás se habían visto. [...]

From the grinding fuzz opening of "Ecstasy" to the guns-blazing closing title track, Iceage's You're Nothing is anything but a sophomore slump. Building on the youthful exuberance of their debut, New Brigade , Iceage have managed to create a record that ebbs and flows at the drop of a hat, churning out twelve songs of delicious punk that will enthrall listeners. In a year that has already seen the hardcore stylings of Pissed Jeans and The Bronx [...]

Portada del nuevo álbum de AC4 El pasado 2012 fue el año de la reunión fugaz de Refused . Después de ofrecer varios conciertos alrededor del mundo y en varios festivales, sus integrantes devolvieron la banda al baúl por tiempo indefinido. Pero esto no significó el fin para Dennis Lyxzén , líder y vocalista de Refused , ya que reinició actividades con su otra banda AC4 y publicó una nueva canción titulada "Extraordinary Rendition" , la cual aparecerá en el primer álbum en cuatro años de nombre Burn the [...]

La banda lanzará su primer disco en cuatro años, Burn The World , el cual será distribuído en Estados Unidos a partir de la próxima semana a través de Deathwish Inc , aunque ya se puede escuchar un adelanto, " Extraordinary Rendition ". [...]
![[Listen] AC4: "Extraordinary Rendition"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4782029_lg.jpg)
Tiempo después de que Refused llegara a su final, Dennis Lyxzén decidió armar una nueva banda de nombre AC4, la cual tal vez no tiene la misma intensidad que Refused, pero si sigue portando con ese espíritu honesto y apegado a las bases del punk que tanto se agradece que se siga manteniendo vivo en la actualidad. Ahora, después del tremendo año que tuvo con la reunión de Refused , parece que de nueva cuenta han puesto a dormir a la banda para enfocarse en cada uno de sus proyectos alternos, entre los cuales obviamente se encuentra [...]

What are the guys of Refused up to now that their reunion tour has concluded? Singer Dennis Lyxzén is returning to his post-Refused hardcore band AC4 for the release of their first album in four years, Burn The World . It'll be distributed in the U.S next month by Deathwish, INC, but already you can stream the ferocious cut titled "Extraordinary Rendition" below (via The PRP ). Lyxzén is also recording an album with a band called Invasionen. Meanwhile, Refused drummer David Sandström is collaborating with guitarist Kristofer Steen and [...]

Prior to Saturday night, My Bloody Valentine hadn't released an album in 21 years. Here's what music was like when Loveless was released way back in 1991: Tyler, the Creator was born Justin Timberlake turned 11 Jack White turned 16 Whitney Houston sang "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the Super Bowl New Kids on the Block headlined the Super Bowl Halftime show [...]
My “best of 2012″ is coming to its end. Last words to some Swedish artists I love. All of them answered three questions from mine about: What they liked in music this year, especially within Sweden. What they did ... Continue reading
#35: The Head and the Heart @ Forecastle [Original Post] I'd heard a song or two by Head and the Heart going into their show at Forecastle, but I'll admit that I was really just seeing them because there wasn't a lot of competition for their time slot at Forecastle. But just like what happens [...]

I was waiting to see if the world ended, before I posted this - thought it could save me some time - but here we still sit. It's Christmas morning, everyone's already done a list of some sort and I was hoping the list-y dust would settle before I posted mine. Happy Yule to y'all! The last half of this year for me sucked donkeys for a variety of intense, life-changing personal reasons. Admittedly, my output on BSR took a bit of a hit while I was struggling with real life. But in 2012 music was here, there [...]
Our very earliest associates and supporters may remember that the origins of The Cargo Culte lay in a collection of mixes that BaddBob and I began sharing in the late fall and winter of 2008. A few scant months after the banking meltdown I found myself back in Los Angeles after eight years of wandering, [...]
We spend a wholly inappropriate amount of time at gigs- missing all kinds of obligations, end up crawling through the next day exhausted, battered, and bruised. It's a lot of travel, standing in line, out of pocket expenses, and the occasional mediocre experience that leaves us cold. Then there are the times when you feel more alive than ever while shoved into a dive bar with a load of screaming strangers or a bearded man with an acoustic guitar makes you weep like a baby, having feelings you didn't know you were capable of. This is why we do what [...]
With their 2012 reunion completed, Refused vocalist Dennis Lyxzén has posted an update on what he and his bandmates have planned for 2013: I am recording a new record with my band Invasionen. In January. Invasionen is a post-punk sort of project [and our] record is being done in Swedish and English. It should be out by the summer. I am also doing [my] hardcore band, AC4 . We will have a record out in March called Burn the World on my label Ny Våg Records . [...]
Featuring new releases from Circle of Contempt, Kowloon Walled City, Mogwai, and more.

Here's a good problem to have: Too many acts on the road. This year, we spent a lot of time at venues or festivals worldwide and not one of us is complaining. Several entertained, several disappointed, but the successes far outweighed the failures. Because there are so many engaging talents out supporting their music these days, we decided to expand our choices to five and create a shortlist rather than just any one resounding winner. We know you're just as avid as a concertgoer, so please feel free to share your choices in the comments below. Who knows? [...]

Foto por Daniel Patlán Texto: @folkmetender Portugal. The Man es uno de los grupos que formaron parte de la primera edición del festival Indio Emergente en las ciudades de Querétaro, Guadalajara y Cholula. Después de tres conciertos consecutivos en México, tuve la oportunidad de platicar en persona con Zachary Carothers (bajo), Noah Gersh (guitarra) y Kyle O'Quin (teclados) sobre el verdadero significado de mantener las cosas reales, seguir haciendo música que te guste y ser una persona sincera y honesta contigo mismo.

Words, Photos, and Video by Ricky Everyone’s already told you … Austin, TX remains a kickass, music-obsessive city despite it being surrounded by a dirt-filled desert of conservatism. The massive SXSW and Austin City Limits Festivals flood the town with traveling music dorks each year, but a younger, cozier, and (dare I say) FUN festival crept into the scene seven years ago. The Fun Fun Fun Fest! The name says it all … organizers strive for a festival devoid of pricey, overcrowded Coachella or Lollapalooza vibes. Their gift for assembling lineups [...]
