By Chris Gedos Stereogum unveiled last week The Hairs' new single, "I've Been Working Out", a song with such a facile understanding of the canon it's deserving of several encores within the blogosphere. The refrain lyric, "I've been working out, I get to wear a Jesus crown", is rooted in the iconoclasm and sacreligiousness which has permeated Rock since Bill Haley. Be sure to check their bandcamp for a collection of ditties which clock in at less than two minutes, in preparation for [...]
Only last week we were ranting on about a northern band, called Citi Petts , that in parts reminded us of The Gossip , with oversized guitar riffs and lots of punched-with-a-run-up beats. Today we are fishing in the same pond, as we've recently had contact from another northern band who's new single can have it's genetics traced back to that same American band, giving us a case of blog ditto inside of just a few days, (Ed - perhaps that should be Beth Ditto ). If you like your guitar music to drive like Ryan [...]
I could've made this list twice as long but I capped it at 50. Most of these are actual singles. The rest should be. Beyond the top ten, ordering is fairly arbitrary. Metronomy - The Look ( MP3 | Video ) I first heard this song back in February and I have yet to tire of it. I wish the keyboard solo outro lasted forever. Exlovers - Blowing Kisses ( MP3 | Video ) Rocking shoegaze pop of the highest order. [...]
Delicate and unrefined, jangling all the way, the Hairs resemble Flying Nun bands of three decades ago rather than the current crop scattered through their home-base of Brooklyn. The musical composition is straight-forward and fetching: crunchy drums and hissing organ tones lay the ground work while the guitar and male/female vocals take the forefront. "Picasso vs. Frankenstein" might not be about the two famous characters, but more about how the Kiwis handed down a recipe for uncomplicated musical enjoyment. The Hairs - Picasso v. Frankenstein The Hairs have a [...]
It seems that Lady Gaga is continuing her streak of bad single choices. Born This Way , which has strong tracks like "Heavy Metal Lover" and "Government Hooker," will get yet another horrid song for a single. "Marry The Night" is it. As id "You & I" wasn't enough torture, this song, which first launched on Farmville, will get the video treatment. It sounds like a mid-902s dance song by Corona or JX.

Lady Gaga performed at the iHeartRadio Music Fest in Las Vegas over the weekend with a stunning 1 hour performance. Gaga performed her chart topping singles Bad Romance, Just Dance, The Edge of Glory, Born This Way, Poker Face and more. But during her performance, the singer took a moment to dedicate her song Hair to 14-year-old Jamey Rodemeyer who unfortunately took his life last week because he was being bullied about his sexuality .

photos by Amanda Hatfield The Hairs is the latest music project from Kevin Alvir who has previously masterminded NYC indiepop bands The Lil' Hospital and Knight School. Even though the band is pretty new, The Hairs already have a 7" on Portland's fine Magic Marker Records that contains four scrappy, charming songs. One of which, "Duh x 12," has gotten some attention for its video which was directed by Dean Fleischer-Camp who made internet sensation Marcel the Shell. [ Bill Pearis [...]

Ty Segall, White Fence collaborate on new album, plan tour
Here's a collaboration I can really get excited about: Ty Segall and White Fence (aka Tim Presley) plan to release a new album, Hair , April 28. What's more, these guys are heading out on the road together. The shows will feature separate sets and some songs played together. They hit Chicago's Lincoln Hall May 10. That show also features Presley's other band, the Strange Boys .

The Hairs – "I've Been Working Out" (Stereogum Premiere)
The Hairs' Kevin Alvir has a great feel for those warm-sounding, catchy indie pop songs that recall the era of cassette singles and the type of fare that would get heavy rotation'd at college radio stations of yore. Former SGum staffer Brandon Stosuy called the outfit "a twee Wavves, a less punked-up/still snotty Cloud Nothings, an extremely polite Happy Flowers," which is a pretty good jump-off. They've got a single coming out later this month on WeePOP!, and today we have that release's A-side "I've Been Working Out," a fun jangle of a song with a nice pop [...]

Radical Dads – New York
The name may sound like a trio of suburban fathers who move the people-carrier from the garage on Sundays so they have room for a Deep Purple jam session, in reality Radical Dads will make you think of the bands you used to like from the nineties. Wearing their influences on their sleeve the band recently released the rather good Mega Rama , an enjoyable combination of declaratory vocals, reverberating guitar echoes and punk rock-meets pop-sensibilities. Yet when they bring their gen-x nostalgia to Brooklyn's Shea Stadium (a tiny club rather than its famous namesake), they find [...]
