The Coral , one of Liverpool's downright coolest bands, just announced what many people are calling their "comeback" album, Roots And Echoes , arriving August 6th on Deltasonic Records . I don't quite understand how it's a comeback considering they've released four albums in the last five years, all of which landed 5th or higher on UK sales charts, but either way it's exciting news. They've also announced their first single from the upcoming album, "Who's Gonna Find Me," which they recently made available streaming from the band's MySpace page . We've [...]
Two favorite bands from the past made the unexpected return... I thought that Rooney had vanished along with The O.C. I had no idea a sophomore album was in the making. Of course, like most people, I wouldn't have known them if not for their guest performance on the show, and up to now, pretty much every time I want to hear Rooney, I will turn on 'I'm Shakin'' first. That song never gets old. So when I heard about the comeback single, I was quite [...]
Hmm, that's either a recipe for: a) disaster or b) extreme amusement. Let's hope for the latter! The Coral shares info on their upcoming album (recorded in Noel Gallagher's studio) via their MySpace: "We're just ending the album process with a few of us off to New York next week for 'mastering', then if all goes to plan then the latest long player from The Coral should be in your grubby little hands very soon... Zappa sharing a jazz omelette with Gnarls Barkley!" MP3: The [...]
Diagon Hljómsveitin Diagon er þriggja manna Reykjavíkurband sem legið hefur í hálfgerðum dvala undanfarið. Nú eru þeir félagar komnir á kreik aftur með breytta liðsskipan (bassaleikarinn tók að sér hlutverk söngvarans) og frumburðinn fullbúinn og klárann til útgáfu. Engum sögum fer þó af nákvæmum útgáfudegi plötunnar. Diagon stefna á tónleikahald á næstunni og geta áhugasamir fylgst með tilkynningum þess efnis á heimasíðu sveitarinnar eða MæSpeisinu þeirra. Nýja efnið lofar góðu. Metnaðarfullt alt-rokk sem sleppur að mestu við falla í klisjugryfjurnar sem leynast víðsvegar. Söngvarinn minnir mig einstaklega mikið [...]
Fun Facts About the United Kingdom: - The UK was established in 1801 by the Act of Union 1800, which merged the Kingdom of Ireland and the Kingdom of Great Britain. - The UK is made up of four constituent countries: England, Scotland, Wales on the island of Great Britain, and Northern Ireland. - The governmental system in the UK is a constitutional monarchy, and I'm not even going to go into that. - The main religion in the UK is Christianity. It has one of the lowest [...]
I guess my best memory of this album, or rather a preview to this album, would be back in 2002 when Sadie, Jen and myself saw the Supergrass/Coral doublebill at the 9:30 Club. The Coral was brilliant that night. All gazillion members of the band put on their best hats and completely floored the DC crowd. From that day onwards I've been a huge fan of their debut eponymous disc. The biggest hit stemming from this album would conclusively be 'Dreaming Of You' . This song will never get old, tired or [...]
