Pedestrian 1980s comedy with supporting turns by Cherie & Marie Currie This is a kitchen-sink comedy that weaves stock characters and standard plot devices into an unremarkable 84 minutes. There's a scheming father, an offbeat militant handyman, horny desk clerks, kooky guests, and a business-savvy hooker. The story involves a failing Florida hotel whose revitalization is undermined by the owner's attempts to embarrass the prospective son-in-law he's installed as manager. Peter Scolari, who in 1984 had finished his run in Bosom Buddies and was just starting [...]
My shadow's the only one that walks beside me My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating Sometimes I wish someone out there will find me 'Til then I walk alone Green Day always makes me think of my friend Ade. She was totally a punk rock princess to me. Even before she was into Punk Rock. My memory, albeit addled with reckless drug abuse, is that I introduced her to Green Day. I set her life into motion in a way. She now had a purpose. It was not long after this introduction [...]

Runaway - Use Me Well, once again, I'm happy to be able to post about our friends Jacques Renault and Marcos Cabral, aka Runaway, who have had an incredible 2008, with three great releases spread across four excellent labels, I'm A Cliché, DFA and REKIDS, and finally they're back with their second release for Wurst Edits. I've been lucky enough to be able to post about My Cousin Roy's Wurst Edits label a number of times here on Music For Robots, so when this release came up, I was glad to get to do it again - both sides...
While browsing at Vintage Vinyl yesterday, I found out that the store recently bought a collection of records from somebody. This buy was a bit different than others, however. For starters, clerks fou... Continue reading "Vintage Vinyl Sells Rare Punk Seven-Inch LPs on eBay" >
As some of you may have heard, Twilight star Kristin Stewart is slated to play Joan Jett in an upcoming movie about The Runaways. As writer Gil Kaufman aptly put it in an MTV.com article , this raises the question, "Just who were the Runaways?" I assume, reader, that you know the answer to this query, but what about the Twilight fans? And will they care? If biopics are going to vacillate from better-known figures, like Harvey [...]

MUSIC NEWS - Kristen Stewart (Twilight) has been signed to portray Joan Jett in "The Runaways," the rock n roll biopic of the influenetial '70s all-girl rock band. The Runaways were the first commercially successful all-girl hard rock band; their members were; guitarists Jett and Lita Ford, drummer Sandy West, bassist Jackie Fox and singer/keyboardist Cherie Currie. The band was formed in 1975 by music impresario Kim Fowley, who thought a novelty act of teenage girls performing in leather & lace would be an easy sell. But the members were serious about their craft and performed their own music so found a rock audience with songs like "Cherry [...]

Jacob Thiele , the mind behind the synthesizers of The Faint was kind enough to take the time to answer a few questions for MIA . Formed in Omaha, Nebraska, The Faint create a collective blend of new wave, dance and punk melodic sensations. The quintet was once named Norman Bailer and originally involved Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst. Over the years, Connor went his own solo way and the members decided to make a few fresh musical changes including their band's name. Together The Faint have released a total of five studio albums [...]
Una vieja y una nueva de Marcos Cabral y Jacques Renault A.K.A. Runaway.

A lthough our Friends Jacques and Marcos of Runaway are currently in Quebec sipping red wine (hopefully not from a pbr can this time) and probably over indulging on Poutine with Brennan Green, Let's not forget their memorable set at Akult from about a month or so ago. Although the night didn't end at the Goodlife Bar, here for y'all is the set that was played [...]

The reason I have loved DFA so sincerely for such a long time is because they have always stayed true to their sound, always consistently pushing it to new levels, releasing/discovering some amazing acts (alot through their Death From Abroad offshoot label) and never losing out to over commercialization of the brand. Mock & Toof are two dudes from London who release tunes on the aforementioned DFAbroad label (plus a few others). Honestly I didnt really dig these guys until I heard their new 123 Underwater, a catchy bass driven number with some great [...]
As a blogger I get mp3s e-mailed to me all the time. This week I got a bunch of stuff that I actually got a chance to listen to, and more importantly, liked. Tom Jones has been given a bit of the Winehouse treatment on his new record and is taking it back to the old school. 2 Hot 2 Sweat are a boy/girl synth-rock duo who deliver a snotty, scuzzy robot rocker - fabulous. Shrag deliver a snotty,
