Julian Plenti- Fun That We Have (Link 2) Paul Banks is a most introverted frontman. Brooding, melancholy and with his distinctive baritone voice, he cut a lonely figure, even amongst the other members of Interpol. He is, however, willing to put out and take risks. Banks (along with the rest of us) has clearly become disillusioned with Interpol's sound, seemingly stuck in a time warp. As an escape, he created 'Julian Plenti', an alias. There were no attempts to hide his identity, so I'm saying this is just a process he wants [...]

"Now it is time for you to call. It is time for you to do The Right Thing. It's time for you to testify ." -- Tom, kicking things off with his classic Volcano Suns-inspired pledge plea "I will say this, guys: if you want to talk to a G-I-R-L, call 800-989-9368." -- Tom, tempting the male demographic with some ultra-rare female interaction "We're 35 minutes into the show, and I have raised a total of $3. That's not true. I'm not gonna lie that bad." -- Tom, [...]
With summer on the horizon, everyone is always looking for something to do. As a college student, low cost and minimum travel is a plus. What else could be better then a BBQ? Call up a few folks, get some ribs, chicken, hot dogs and burgers.

According to a source that asked to not be identified, Deftones will be playing this year's Reading & Leeds Festivals. Apparently, the band will be using a stand-in for bassist Chi Cheng, who has been in a coma since being involved in a car crash late last year. Interesting. The appearance will mark Deftones first appearance at Reading & Leeds since 2000, and their first UK festival appearance since Download 2006. Watch Deftones play 'Change (In The House Of Flies)' at Reading [...]

Our friends over @ the Vulture have cracked the DaVinci code of the hip hop blogosphere. The mystery behind Kanye's Blog has finally been revealed.. Did he have Ghostbloggers? Why is the blog so heavy on design / fashion / avant-garde music / models?.. Why did Jesus walk with him? The code has been cracked.. the templar has summoned the white knights of the covenant, and many theorists are debating whether this information is true, or if it could be a plot by the blog illuminati [...]

Today the contrast podcast is all about secrets. Go here to hear what everyone's got to say. I'll bet there are a few juicy ones. I thought hard about this, because of course there are things about me nobody knows. The tricky part was deciding which one to share. After all, this will live on in perpetuity, so I don't want to reveal anything too incriminating. I decided to go [...]

Well, we were the first to get wind of it back in November , and now here we are as the first to concrete-confirm it - Thrash Hits can exclusively confirm that Metallica are indeed booked to headline at a new two-day festival at Knebworth this July. The Thrash Hits team is nothing if not dedicated to deep-cover investigative journalism (ie, drinking whiskey in the Cro Bar ), where our investigations (ie, eavesdropping) means we can also confirm that Linkin Park will be headlining the other day of the festival. And that's not all [...]

McClain & the Intruders - Just Another Pop Song MP3: Secrets - Get Your Radio MP3: Scott McCarl - I Think About You NOTE: Today's contribution comes from Matt Giordano, who is probably missed around these parts more than constant updates. Fuck yeah! Well, with a slight aside from their fantastic Eccentric Soul series, the [...]

So last week, I started you all off with a few old school Armand Van Helden tracks and remixes . It got a pretty good response, actually. Well, except from the Strictly Rhythm folks , and we can understand why, so we took down the mp3 of "Break Night". Hopefully if you guys trust my opinion, you'll buy the track, anyhow! So this week, we're bouncing ahead a little further. After his seminal album 2 Future 4 U , he has just sort of gone downhill, unfortunately. The edge isn't there, any more. That's a [...]

01. Artist and friend Sherill Anne Gross made the above Pinup , which incorporates more than 6000 pieces of hand-cut paper for the shag carpeting. Obsessive but awesome. 02.

Good-bye unclogged arteries!" 03. Reception for my Four Characters show is tomorrow. Many of the cool kids will be making an appearance. Big ups to The New [...]
