Them Changes

Being billed as the UK's answer to Kings of Leon immediately lumps a rather large weight on the shoulders of London trio Them Changes. But nevertheless, that seems to be the word about town. Not bad for an act that started its life as Michael Kiwanuka's backing band. They eventually decided to form their own [...]

The Wandas

Thank You Note - the WANDAS
The crisp, jangly guitar-pop that The Wandas produce recalls the playful power-pop of Teenage Fanclub and Big Star. It is touched with a dose of modern accessibility, with the familiar song structures and sweet harmonious vocal backings bringing to mind '90s alt-rock acts like The Verve Pipe, Collective Soul, and – during The Wandas' more [...]

SOJORN – Bittersweet Collage (ft. The Verve, Ice Cube, Eightball, 2pac, Biggie & Warren G)

Check out "Bittersweet Collage," another jam from Sojorn. The track has a real old school vibe, taking the Verve Pipe's "Bittersweet Symphony" and adding tons of old school rappers on top of it. Sojorn complements the mash-up with a funky, electr

Summerstage Starts Officially Tweeting It's Lineup Today, Verve Pipe Are Playing Too

Songs About College: 10 Tunes to Get You High on Education

Former 1990s alt rock buzzband The Verve Pipe headlines ACL Music Festival

Former 1990s alt rock buzzband The Verve Pipe headlines ACL Music Festival Link: http://2010.aclfestival.com/ba nd/verve-pipe It seems like music festivals are 'getting ironically retro.' As opposed to booking huge bands to be the major draws, they are booking 'ironic 1990s one-hit-wonders' to take the stage. The band The Verve Pipe had one hit called "The Freshmen" which was a popular alt rock song, back in the alt rock 1990s era. Not sure why Austin City Limits booked them. Seems like a questionable decision, like no1 will show up to their stage, or maybe people will 'walk by [...]

Concert Review: The Verve Pipe

Concert Review: The Verve Pipe Thursday, February 18, 2010 -- The Basement in Columbus, OH Hank here. I've been searching for a great small venue ever since I moved to Columbus in 2008 to see a good show (I wanted a place that reminded me of the now closed Reverb in beloved Cedar Falls). Sure, they have some good venues that I've been to here -- The LC , Schottenstein Center , Nationwide Arena .... There's also been a couple that I have wanted [...]

Jay Brannan Releases In Living Cover

Jay Brannan Releases In Living Cover Singer/Songwriter Jay Brannan is releasing a new cover album this week. The album includes 2 Brannan originals along with 7 cover songs. The album is definitely enjoyable, but nothing to write home about. It's a very simple album, with nothing more than Jay's guitar and his voice. The lead single from the album is his rendition of the 90's hit "The Freshmen", by The Verve Pipe. I like it, but only because the song was great to begin with. He brought nothing new or original to the song, other than his own voice. One song that I do really enjoy [...]

Brannan is now offering an exclusive listen to the second single off of the record, his cover of the Verve Pipe 's 90s hit, 'The Freshmen.'

This Week's Top 5 Most Played Songs From Swap's iTunes

This Week's Top 5 Most Played Songs From Swap's iTunes If you've been following me this week on Twitter (my new semi-obsession), you probably read that I listened to Abbot Hayes' song, "Earth Gently Rolls," over 100 times this week. That song is 4:37 long… you do the math. I spent a LOT of time listening to that song. Speaking of Twitter, if you're not following us yet, here's your chance! Since I already wrote about the tune here, it became ineligible for the Top 5 list, which means all the rest of songs got moved up one notch… make sense? Knowing all of that, here are [...]

vanity plays

vanity plays What level of ego is sufficiently necessary to distinguish our individuality - how much is too much? Societal mores teach us that we should put others ahead of ourselves, but for a myraid reasons, that proves to be an irrelevant task for those with an inflated sense of self. These are the special people the universe and our theme revolves around, the silly solipsistic amongst us. In Greek mythology, Narcissus was cursed to fall in love with his own reflection in a pool of water. Luckily, not bound by spell, modern day narcissists freely decide to indulge in [...]

It came from the nineties (Vol. 31) [1]

Oddly enough the first time I ever hear "The Freshman" was at an open mic night at the UIUC Courtyard Cafe back in the fall of 1996. Some guy was playing the song when I commented to Kris, "That is a really great song," only to hear him reply, "It's a cover." That doesn't change the fact that the song is good. That and I really hate Lenny Kravitz. Really. MP3 | The Verve Pipe - The Freshman [...]
