In solidarity with thousands of other websites, we won't be publishing any other new content today in protest of The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA). While we here at Sound on the Sound take piracy and copyright seriously, we believe this proposed legislature will do much more harm than [...]

Humorously named Lightninging can create some loud rock 'n' roll, but yet aren't afraid to pull back the reigns and show a little more of the introspective side to their songwriting abilities. The combination of Mark Cruttenden, Greg O'Neill, Dave Pope and Matt Williams swap vocals and instruments like guitars, bass, percussions, and even a trumpet while drummer Greg Foran remains the steady backbone of the group. But let's be honest. The guys are really more about having fun on stage. They'll be headlining an early show at Kung Fu Necktie tonight so swing on by and get [...]
Elephant Six Collective associate Andy Gonzales returns to the Marshmallow Coast moniker and re-records his debut, with some new bits added. After the rest of his M Coast band left, ex-Of Montreal member Andy Gonzales reverted to the Marshmallow Coast name under which he released his first two albums. Taking the concept even further, he decided to re-record his debut, 2000's Seniors & Juniors, with a few new songs mixed in. Seniors & Juniors Strikes Back relies on a much more electronics-driven, fuller sound than its lo-fi predecessor. It also features a lengthy guest list, including...
Song of the Day #30 is for #j30 . Good luck and solidarity to all strikers and protesters today.
Always proudly contrary, I thought I'd post some pictures of unusual wedding cakes today, since I already covered divorce cakes in a previous piece . But to be even more contrary, I decided to show pictures of just the little figurines they put on top of wedding cakes. They're called - appropriately enough - toppers. And of course, some appropriate music. Jeannie C. Riley - "The Wedding Cake" Click [...]
GOOD-Ness.. GOOD-Ness.. Strike-Me! This is a throwback from the past! But in an extremely refreshing n' wickedly nice way! (May the 90's samples-wave keep on rolling & flowing by the way ...) First heard from back in the year of 1994 on Fresh Records, this track remained on the radios, the music video channels and all the various fairground playlists for many, many years after... But sliding those EFX knobs right up to 2011 quite smoothy, Xtopher's enhances and teases the original Original quite expertely, and churns out a house remix which would [...]

Beyoncé - Bauer Griffin Bey Season is officially underway after the release of Beyoncé 's scorching girl power anthem, " Run The World (Girls) ," this week. And looks like Bey is already on the way to gracing the covers of magazines for this project. First up, or at least first to shoot, is Harper's Bazaar. Bey was spotted looking gorgeous in a flirty dress on the balcony of the Hotel Ritz in Paris shooting a spread for the magazine. See photos below:

What's that saying? "Life is full of regrets, so eat your chocolates now?" (Close enough.) Well, my latest regret is not buying tons of stock in Kurt Vile . For three years, I've known about - and heard constant praise of - Philadelphia's psych-folk rising star, yet I've skipped a half dozen of his shows and mostly overlooked Constant Hitmaker and Childish Prodigy as too lo-fi and folky for my tastes. I liked him, but rarely gave each album repeat listens. (The lo-fi gave me an auditory motion sickness. I swear!) [...]
Congrats are in order for Lupe Fiasco, as today it was announced by DJ Busy that "The Show Goes On" has already struck Gold, moving 505k units. If you're keeping track at home this is Lu's second Gold plaque (alongside The Cool ), which he can hang next to his Platinum award for "Superstar". RR
At the 2011 NBA All-Star game in Los Angeles, Kobe Bryant, of the Los Angeles Lakers was in fine form. He dropped 37 points, grabbed 14 rebounds and won his record-tying fourth All-Star MVP award. "You could tell he started out from the start, he wanted to get the MVP," Amare Stoudemire said . "He was not passing the ball, at all. But that's Kobe." To celebrate vintage Kobe turning into the Black Mamba in front of the home crowd Sunday night, here's the Robert Rodriguez-directed extra-long-Nike-commercial, which stars Danny Trejo at The Crippler, Bruce [...]
Paige and I have a fondness for all things Star Wars. I have been a massive fan since I was a kid; I saw STAR WARS pretty much every weekend until the day THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK came out. My Mom even let me ditch school to go see Empire on its opening day which also happened to be my 12th birthday! Paige's young son is addicted to his very realistic light sabre and lives, eats, sleeps and breathes all things Star Wars. Needless to say, we get on well because of our small addiction! Beginning (and most [...]

I've never really understood the phrase 'strike while the iron is hot'. What is the relationship between the action of 'striking' and an iron? I have ruled out the possibility that it is an old phrase used in order to gain motivation to do the ironing, as I am an experienced wielder of the iron and can safely say I have never struck any of my clothes with it, only smoothed or pressed. Maybe the iron in question is not the same utensil we associate the word with in the 21st century? Furthermore, the verb 'to [...]
Former-comedian and current has-been Jerry Seinfeld recently took to the press to make fun of Lady Gaga's love of press. Jerry went on a tirade in which he says he hates the Gaga, yes as deep as "hate," and that he is mad she was allowed in his section at the game when he wasn't there himself. Jerry, keep to your jokes and get out of things you know nothing about, like pop culture. Click below to read his tirade against the lovely Gaga. "This woman is a jerk. I hate her. I can't [...]

Vorige week reageerde er een meisje op een van mijn blogs. Ilse, uit Groningen, werkt voor een Amerikaans PR buro en was onder de indruk van Duurt Lang. Dat horen we natuurlijk graag, en toen ze me een kijkje gunde in de portfolio van haar artiesten nam ik die mogelijkheid natuurlijk graag aan. Van de artiesten in de lijst kende ik er welgeteld geen. Afgaande op omschrijvingen en titels downloadde ik wat nummers, waaronder een van de zangeres Jennings. Umbrella is natuurlijk bekend door het origineel van Rihanna, maar Jennings kan er ook wat van.
