These eleven artists were all featured in the past, most several years ago. Yet there's always a topical excuse to revisit something memorable. Combine this mix with rewards you can win from Caesars Entertainment's ''Total Rewards" program, and you're set for a damn good time

Here are a handful of songs I put together for my drive to work last night..
I'm tired of writing. It's a beautiful day outside and I want to go out and enjoy it. So here are some picks that I have for tomorrow night. I've included some links to the band websites. Hopefully you'll enjoy some of my picks. Young Lions Music Club CMW Showcase. 19+. Doors at 7PM. Young Lions Music Club is showcasing some great [...]
Inspired by the return of one of my favorite TV shows, the hyper self-aware Community (whose Abed could be considered the patron saint of meta-humor) and the self-referring "Simple Song" on the new Shins album out this week, I've made a mix of my favorite meta-referential songs. By this I mean songs that include specific references to themselves in the lyrics (stuff like "it goes like this, the fourth, the fifth...", "take it to the chorus" and "Second verse, same as the first verse" are out). It turns out there are a [...]
SXSW along with its few musical offshoots and massive swarm of unofficial acts are gearing up for the weekend, with the city streets clogging up tonight as a whole new dynamic sweeps over Austin; for better of for worse. If you blinked over the course of the past few days you likely missed several thousand varied performances, although there's still plenty of time to take in two sets from the great St. Petersburg Florida indie rock band, Alexander & The Grapes. Alexander & The Grapes are playing this Friday afternoon at Dogwood @ 2:15pm and at their [...]
This is Rivers Cuomo (of Weezer) covering The Beach Boys “God Only Knows”. Jammer. Had to re-up this vid. Enjoy.
It’s hard to believe that, on one fateful Sunday night, playing FIFA 12 on my PS3, I would be introduced to one of the most underrated bands that fall under the psychedelic indie genre: PORTUGAL. THE MAN. Despite the worldwide and mainstream popularity of the FIFA video games, developer, EA, do an emphatic job of carefully selecting artists who are often little known to gamers, to feature on their annual soundtrack. Over the years, this has opened the door to fame for many artists including Kasabian , Editors , [...]
Following hot on the steaming heels of Best Fit Recordings' first release in I Ching's It's Me is the budding label's follow-up, and a beastly creature L.A. is too. The melodic, if spasmodically mucky stylings of Fanzine render the Weezer-esque outfit the bestest of fits for the label and, although straight outta London, the entitling of the release feels equally apposite for it is irrevocably drenched in an exceedingly blithe estival aesthetic, thus just like that stereotypically renowned of California's capital of degradation. BESTFIT002 is out April 30th and can be pre-ordered here as [...]
You've probably heard the sad news by now that 602s teen heartthrob Davy Jones, leader of The Monkees, died today at age 66. Although the band was formed as what we'd consider today as a marketing ploy, a sort of Americanized Beatles, their appeal grew astronomically, and young girls and boys all around the country would run home from school just to watch Davy and the band on TV. While they wrote few songs of their own, they placed an enduring mark on a number of pop songs they covered from others, making them so recognizably theirs that you'd most [...]
La música por naturaleza es íntima, ya sea viendo a una banda tocar en el escenario de algún festival o sólo viendo sus videos en línea, pero cuando Jono Stevens, Chris Patinsson, Gen Stevens, Johnny Madderson y Will Evans crearon Black Cab Sessions , llevaron esa intimidad a otro nivel. Black Cab Sessions parte de la misma ideología usada por otras series musicales en línea, como el Take Away Show de La Blogotheque, pero lo hace de una forma más eficiente en un formato y locación constantes, tal como su nombre lo indica, en un taxi negro. Simple, directo, [...]
23 If you grew up anywhere near the same time frame that I did, Weezer 's Blue Album probably has a solid place in your adolescent memory. I assume that's a part of the reason why Bomb the Music Industry! decided to play The Blue Album and Pinkerton in their entirety a couple years ago. I 100% support this venture and wish I could've been there. Anyway, from the recordings I've heard, it was pretty amazing. Here's a video from our friends at If You Make It of [...]

All good things, apparently, must come to an end. After a whopping three hours of "sleep" in which MEGABOAT rocks side to side (how is that even possible on a ship this big? Oh Sea, you are a powerful beast and I would bow to you if I didn't think it would make me puke) and "WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT BANGING AT 9AM WHEN WE ONLY GOT TO BED 3 HOURS AGO?", Cabinmate Terri and I slowly arise and extricate ourselves from Casa Weezer to go hunting for Breakfast Goods. We wander, then I sit [...]

Day Three of The Weezer Cruise. I have thus far survived Day One and Day Two , but Day Two only barely. I wake up, 6am, hanging off my single bed, half-naked (Cabinmate Terri must have been blinded by boobs), contacts still in. My AAA pass is at the foot of the toilet, and I feel like I need to kill myself quickly. My hangover, in fact, is THIS BIG: That's the motherfunking size of our motherfunking boat. It's enormous and so is my "I [...]
Day 2: I'm Never Drinking Wine Again. Herewith, a rundown of Friday, January 20th of the Weezer Cruise , in all its awesome and embarrassing glory. And if you haven't already , Read my Day 1 Weezer Cruise Diary , to get caught up. Here we go... Cabinmate Terri's and my plan to have "24 Hour Room Service" for breakfast fails miserably as it never arrives. We waste precious outdoor hangover time by waiting in our festy box, and finally bail on [...]
