Se ve un tanto bizarra, pero no deja de lucir original la idea de recrear clásicas portadas del rock de todos los tiempos, como si hubieran sido diseñadas con los recursos amateur del Clip Art. Clipartcovers.tumblr es el responsable de este atentado visual tan raro como divertido. The Smiths Kate Bush Kraftwerk Joy Division [...]
Above is a trailer for the upcoming LCD Soundsystem documentary "Shut Up And Play The Hits." Directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace, the film focuses on the band's breakup in 2011, in particular the days leading up to their last shows at Madison Square Garden . If you couldn't fly to New York and pay $957 to bid them farewell, this could be the next best thing. It will debut at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival . Heartfelt indie folkster Justin Vernon, also [...]

Longtime Everybody Taste favorites Luna have digitally remastered and released the LPs Romantica, Rendezvous and the 2002 EP Close Cover Before Striking over on Bandcamp . Word on the street is the band may even try and repress a few of these classic records onto vinyl (we've got our fingers crossed over here). If you're a fan of the band's dreamy and mesmerizing pop music, former bandmates Dean Wareham and Britta Phillips have also been keeping busy as the duo Dean & Britta with the acclaimed and spectacular 13 Most Beautiful: Songs [...]
The Youth skriver i en pressemeddelse, at de er fast besluttede på at prøve at få 60'ernes bluesprægede garagerock tilbage på teenage værelserne. På dette cover af Low's "Just Like Christmas" gør de en så god figur, at det ikke er usandsynligt, at de kan nå i land med den ambition. Bandet har rumsteret i undergrunden en rum tid og forsøgt at finde frem til deres udtryk. Efter en turbulent padlen mellem forskellige genrer — bl.a. den elektroniske musik, er The Youths endelige udtryk nu blevet etableret, bl.a. hjulpet [...]
He was the first president of the Czech republic. But what really marked out Vaclav Havel , who has died at the age of 75, was his passion for the Velvet Underground: -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch

Human Switchboard's Who's Landing in My Hangar? is one of the few tenuously Cleveland connected punk/new wave classics to lack a proper reissues. Bar/None Records thankfully rescues this great album from a future of shitty YouTube vinyl rips. The reissue includes close to everything the band released. A droning John Cale type synth drones over
El artista británico Aaron Savage, fan del lego y del rock, recreó algunas portadas famosas tanto de la música indie, como de las grandes bandas del rock de todos los tiempos. Por si no te has topado con las imágenes de esta divertida idea, acá te dejamos con algunas de las mejores fotos: The Smiths Pet Shop Boys Nirvana John y Yoko [...]
"under review", es un (muy buen) documental de casi hora y media, que rescata material raro e inédito de the velvet underground , proveniente de colecciones particulares, como la del mismo warhol. fotografías privadas, entrevistas, clips de televisión, films promocionales... todo estupendo si obviamos un patinazo tan flagrante como el de presentar a nico como "beautiful hungarian chanteuse".

Serras não são instrumentos exclusivos para lenhadores e serial-killers de filmes B. Elas também funcionam como um instrumento musical curioso, que nas mãos do grupo folk Little Scream , projeto da canadense Laurel Sprengelmeyer , adicionou um ingrediente especial para uma reinvenção de Natal (!) para a clássica Jesus , do The Velvet Underground . O bom cover foi gravado para o projeto A.V. Holiday Undercover e funciona como um bom exemplo da mistura de folk, pop, glam e psicodélico (com a adição, é claro, da sonoridade própria de Lou Reed e [...]
All the Wrong People Are Dying is not actually an album, but a collection of the earlier Styrenes album A Monster and a Devil alongside several 12"s and a compilation track. Somehow, despite the cobbled-together nature of its assembly, the CD flows more cohesively than most properly assembled albums do. Go figure. The Styrenes, initially
