El Salón de la Fama del Rock and Rol l eligió para este año a 6 bandas de apoyo que durante 3 décadas fueron pasadas por alto. The Comets, Blue Caps, The Crickets, Famous Flames, The Midnighters y The Miracles formarán parte del salón de la fama, a pesar de los años que su talento se mantuvo sin reconocimiento. Originalmente estas bandas de apoyo no fueron consideradas cuando sus respectivos frontmans (Gene Vincent, Bill Haley, Buddy Holly, James Brown, Hank Ballard, [...]
It's hard to consider Radar Eyes' self-titled debut anything other than a pop record. While Radar Eyes is an amalgamation of garage, psychedelic and punk rock, the band manages to tightly piece those distinct sounds together. The album maybe rough around the edges tonally, but it's crystal clear in delivering a melodic palette, which provides just the right amount of catchiness and accessibility without losing that rock and roll edge. While Radar Eyes touch on the acidic nature of Spacemen 3 or [...]
Apes & Horses are a 4-piece band out of Paris, France. Right now the band is somewhat of a mystery and a little bit undercover (See Picture Above). I did find a couple of videos online that had me gasping in excitement. The first video is for a song titled 'The Fields' and it was performed live in Paris while they were supporting WU LYF on tour. The song is a groovy french jam that shows the bands already strong stage presence. 'Miracles' is the other song that they have floating around online and it [...]

MP3 A track from the new 6-track EP from New York's Homeboy Sandman. He's got a pretty bold description for it, too: "6 rap songs with content no one has ever rapped about before in the history of rap music. Unfortunately not a very difficult thing to do." I dunno about that . I'm not saying everything's been said, and I do agree that hip hop has come clear lyrical cliches, but does Sandman bring my mind to newer lyrical planes? Well, sorta, I guess. He's definitely got some eccentric verses, loaded with [...]
Montreal based musician and producer Miracle Fortress (Graham Van Pelt) has been making poppy electronic tunes since 2005. However, just this past year, Miracle Fortress released their long awaited sophomore album Was I The Wave? The album was created in complete isolation like Graham's first, Five Roses , and reflects that in its intricate melodies that demonstrate themes of alienation, anonymity, and the desire for the assurances of intimacy. The tracks from Five Roses have an ethereal feel tinged with a childlike sadness. Was I The Wave? as a whole, seems to have [...]
I was introduced to The Smiles earlier this year through their insanely catchy, breezy "Cala Cola." Now under a different name , the band has a new EP that is free on bandcamp. Check out "Pretend" below and head over to their bandcamp page to find both their eps for free. Think beach rock with some Vampire Weekend preppiness, Beach Boys sensibility and a dash of Good Old War . MP3: The Miracles: Pretend Bonus: MP3: The Miracles: Cala Cola
So, I started recording one song per set at every show I went to this year (provided that I was in the mood to hold up a recording device) and put the recordings up on the youtubes on a channel called GIMMETINNITUSTUBE . And now here's more best of 2011 coverage with our favorite 9 GIMMETINNITUSTUBE recordings. Watch + Listen. Streamable: I Hated School (Live @ Legion Bar ) (youtube) by Night Manager [...]

The 7-inch single has been around since 1949. That's 62 years and counting! In my humble opinion the 7-inch single is still the essence, pinnacle and acme of pop perfection. Optimally, it's one song, one side (Some try to squeeze on more). That's no room for screwing up. You always hear that releasing a 7-inch is a money losing proposition, but that thankfully, doesn't keep pop geeks from doing it. In honor of true blue pop geek vinyl junkies out there, here is the fourth and final installment of the annual Finest Kiss top 40 7-inch singles countdown. [...]
I am here to apologize for slightly detracting from your concert experience all year long. Why? I take photos at shows. I know it can be annoying. That said, I try my best to keep it to a minimum and usually don't use a flash (and then ramp up the contrast and exposure later). Here are my favorite 12 photos from 2011. Look + Listen: Ghost Animal @ Glasslands Downloadable: Tired (A Ceremony) [...]

Heavy Planet hailed "Trails Out of Gloom" as one of the "best albums of 2010." Infernal Masquerade proclaimed "Trails" to be one of the "Top 10 Albums of the Year!" Imagine Echoes and Prognaut both raved that "Trails" was on their "Best of" year's end list, and Progressions Magazine gave "Trails" a perfect 16 out of 16 score, gushing that "Trails was "consistently enchanting from start to finish" and called it "Fantastic in every way" as they proceeded to give it their "highest possible rating!" So what does a band do for an encore after accolades [...]

The band began at Princeton University when vocalist/bassist Evan Younger and mandolinist Josh Hirshfeld discovered a shared boredom with the status quo of pop and rock.
