THIS WEEK'S BEST BET: Thurston Moore w/ San Agustin Wednesday, February 8 Goat Farm - 1200 Foster Street NW in Atlanta 30318 Admission $15 / Purchase Tickets I don't really pay much attention to anything Thurston Moore does outside of his work with Sonic Youth , so this choice isn't based on any great love for him as a solo artist. And, really, nobody needs me to vouch for his talents as an artist, collaborator and performer, do they? I [...]

They Might Be Giants Do Conan

Jan 27, 2:28pm Stereogum

Fans of dorkily comedic things, take note: Nerd-rock veterans They Might Be Giants were on Conan last night, and it's hard to imagine a more generally simpatico host. On the show, they played the recent track "When Will You Die." And as a web exclusive, they also pulled out a noisy version of the 1988 relic "Ana Ng," a song that you just know got major play in the SNL writers' room when Conan was working there. Watch both below. Read More...

20 Songs Named After The Bands That Played Them

Jan 19, 11:46am Stereogum

Self-titled albums are one thing. But when a band names one of its songs after itself - or, alternately, when a band names itself after one of its songs - it's a pretty big deal. The song itself comes off looking something like a mission statement, an encapsulation of everything that the band means. When Bad Company names a song "Bad Company," they want you to know that this song is what they're all about . Not too many bands have been brave enough to attempt this trick throughout history. For some reason, a lot of [...]

#137 – They Might Be Giants 'When Will You Die?'

Jan 11, 2:50pm Safety, Fun & Learning

So They Might Be Giants are going on tour. In the US though. Lucky you, unlucky for those of us living the wrong side of the Atlantic. It all kicks off in California on January 27th and they'll be having their wrap party on the 10th March in New York at Terminal 5. If you get ticket, you should go. Every live video I've ever seen, review I've read and generally most things I hear about their shows are awesome. They are one of those bands who seem to be having a good time while playing, as opposed to some [...]

Houd Dare Dukes in de gaten!

Dec 30, 2011, 3:59am Ketelmuziek

Ik ben iemand die bijna altijd vooruit kijkt, zelden achterom kijkt. En dan heb ik het over muziek- niet over mijn rijgedrag. Zo luister ik nooit naar de Top 2000 op Radio 2. En zal ik me ook niet laten verleiden om een lijstje met mijn favoriete albums van 1980 of 1981 in te sturen naar het Platenblad. Er is natuurlijk niets mis met de Top 2000 of het Platenblad - ik ben simpelweg met andere dingen bezig. Zo loop ik in deze periode de lijstjes met de beste platen van 2011 door om er zeker van [...]

Filed under: Video of the Day Artist: They Might Be Giants Video: 'Electronic Istanbul (Not Constantinople)' Highlight: "Every band member is playing a synthesized instrument in this version of the song -- and notably John L. is playing a circuit-bent Speak-and-Spell from the '80s," co-founder of the group John Flansburgh tells Spinner. "Dan Miller is rocking a microKORG vocoder, which turns his voice into a chord of voices, and John F. is filtering his guitar through a synthesizer. Except for the Casio [...]
