Now, while your phones may not be constantly ringing with blasts from Gossip Girl covering the latest news regarding Serena (Blake Lively), Blair (Leighton Meester), and their slew of family and friends' privileged lives (flawlessly balanced between turmoil and perfection), the phenomenal soundtrack is sure to stay ringing in your ears. From the drugs and partying to the twisted relationships full of lies, deceit, and love, CW's Gossip Girl has found the ideal tracks to set the backdrop and atmosphere for the fast-pasted, [...]
This week's S-25 is dedicated to a random pick of 2011 songs that we really enjoy - some are well-known, or new material from established indie and alternative rock bands - like The Strokes, Beirut, Peter Bjorn and John, and Bon Iver - but many others are songs that we refer to as 'rarely heard,' [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe

Way back in 2008 (wow that seems like a lifetime ago) I fell in love with a little band from Kansas City. The Republic Tigers first EP entranced me with their almost surreal take on electro-folk. The album that followed, No Color , quickly became one of my favorites and found itself perched quite high on my year-end list. Now in 2011 we're finally getting some new Republic Tigers material and just in time for Record Store Day. No Lands Man is a four-song EP being released April 16th (alongside a nifty 73 [...]
48 in all. Took a whole week to sort them out and upload them on the Youtube. Great footage from True Widow, Young Adults, new Friendly Fires songs from their upcoming album "Pala" performed @ the Fader Fort. The very short set (15 minutes) from The Vaccines @ the Filter Magazine day party which mark my words, them Brits [...]

Theophilus London @ Mohawk Theophilus London packed the downstairs room of the Mohawk as part of the Mog/Lexus Party. Theo did an A+ job at engaging not only a kinetic swath of fans but a room, perhaps not so familiar with his music. "Flying Overseas", "Why Even Try", "Strange Love", all the best examples of his unique Electro Hip Hop, hyped the crowd. His brief 30 minute set flew by, with multiple instances of girls-in-attendance brought on stage, numerous hilarious back-and-forths with the audience, and a few indie celeb-in-the-crowd shouts (TVOTR's Dave Sitek, for one). [...]

The Republic Tigers mp3: The Nerve [The Republic Tigers] myspace Joss Stone What a voice. I'm a big fan of the strong, jazzy voices and in my book, Joss Stone is a vocal pundit. She definitely lands on my list of favorite singers (along with James Morrison, etc.). But can we forgive her for being in the 2006 dragon movie "Eragon"? What were YOU thinking, Joss? [...]

click image to view artist in itunes Sounds like: Travis, The Shins, Franz Ferdinand, The Flaming Lips, The Stills, The Bravery What's so good? I originally reviewed this on my old website, but it recently made its way back onto my playlist, and I figure that it can't hurt transferring some of my old reviews over to Indie Shuffle. When I first started listening to The Republic Tiger's EP more than a year ago, I didn't realize that they had already released a [...]

Headphones & Cellphones , the album by Sam Billen is not like his previous band, The Billions . A soulful and basic encounter that is a welcome departure from the indie-pop flow of his last band. This seems for comfortable for him. buy it here . Retranslating seems to be his forte though, as he covers both Deastro and Republic Tigers from the cover EP, Removers . Release date is still unknown but these new songs have my attention. [...]

Last night's episode of Gossip Girl relied heavily (more than usual) on its music. It also featured plenty of low-key gems to keep you going until next week's episode. One of the most impressive playlists on the series. Gossip Girl, Season 3, Episode 8: The Grandfather: Part II The Plastiscines - I Could Rob You Quitzow - Cyclone Fred - Damn You Hollywood The Republic Tigers - The Nerve [...]

Since when did tonight become the night that everything happens? There is so much going on in Brick City tonight and through the weekend, it's almost enough to make up for the complete dearth of quality entertainment we've had since Sonic Youth experimentally jet set and trashed the riverfront back in July. So let's dispense [...]

Back on June 3, 2008, I sat down with The Republic Tigers for a chat. Okay, actually we all gathered around a dumpster behind State Theater in St. Pete. Ah, the glamour of rock n' roll. Anyway, this has been offline for several months and I thought it deserved to be brought back. To review, here are the members of Republic Tigers: Kenn Jankowski - Vocals, Keyboards, Guitar Adam McGill - Guitar, Vocals, Samples and Production Elements Ryan Pinkston - Guitar, Keys, Vocals, Auxiliary percussion Marc Pepperman - [...]
