CoS at Voodoo Experience '09: Beware the Ghouls

CoS at Voodoo Experience '09: Beware the Ghouls Come one come all to the magnificent and frightening Voodoo Experience 2009 Halloween spooktacular held deep in the swampy bayous of New Orleans at City Park! From outrageous costumes to glowing praying mantises, this year's Halloween celebration drew in an outrageous number of people to catch some of this year's hottest acts. Fans braved the freezing rain, which hailed all throughout the first day, and even withstood the muddy after effects on Saturday and Sunday. And all but one small setback (K'NANN canceled his performance last minute on Saturday) made this an exciting and fun filled weekend [...]

Album Review: Slayer - World Painted Blood

The era of thrash has seen an outrageous turn of comebacks this past two years: Megadeth finally brought us the apocalypse it promised for decades with Endgame , Metallica resurfaced with a Guitar Hero volume in their name and the missing link between Justice and Metallica known as Death Magnetic . While Scott Ian's infamous Anthrax sits on the back-burner for now, another "big four" club member seeks to continue its reign as Slayer presents World Painted Blood via executive [...]

Es geht auch ohne (Hass, Waffen...)

Die musikalische Überwindung von Barrieren zwischen Israelis und Palästinensern - hier vertreten durch das Projekt 'Boogie Balagan'. BARRIER-BREAKING ROCK'N ROLL 'BOOGIE BALAGAN' BLENDS MIDDLE EASTERN VIBES WITH EXHILARATING ROCK'N ROLL TO CONVEY THEIR MESSAGE OF PEACE AND BREAK DOWN CULTURAL, LINGUSTIC AND PHYSICAL BARRIERS IN THE MIDDLE EAST. In the autoproclaimed Palestlsraeli duo Boogie Balagan, psychedelic rock'n'roll meets cool Middle Eastern vibes. Their first album 'Lamentation Walloo' is a message of peace and multiculturalism. First, imagine voices that combine Julio Iglesias drinking straight tequilas and Joe Strummer high on harissa. Then, imagine a Mediterranean Jimmy Page torturing his [...]

Ryan Dahle – Chop Chop

Ryan Dahle - Chop Chop (Vampire Knight Guilty AMV)
Does everyone remember last week when I posted the Young Galaxy song? It was the one that was set to the oddly intriguing anime video. Well I'm back on YouTube this morning, looking to see if anyone has uploaded today's Ryan Dahle track, and sure enough I find it... set to an oddly intriguing anime video. It appears that there is a YouTube user, with impeccable taste in music, creating these Canadian indie/Japanese anime mashups; I feel that I must meet this person. Anyways, as mentioned, todays track comes to us from the Canadian music veteran Ryan [...]

SELLING THE DRAMA (AND COMEDY)

SELLING THE DRAMA (AND COMEDY) T is the season to be jolly that the Oscar-hopeful films are finally hitting theaters (at least in the U.S. -- we'll have to wait a few more months for them to cross the Rio Grande and crawl their way into South American theaters), and the predictions are finally getting juicy (see my first batch here ). Of course, every year a solid Oscar contender or two gets left out in the cold: Jack Nicholson for Batman . Glenn Close for Reversal Of Fortune . Juliette Binoche for Blue . Nicole Kidman for [...]

Interview: Setting the Paces With BOAT

Interview: Setting the Paces With BOAT BOAT who are poised to release their third album Setting the Paces this week are like one of those new and improved products: Now better sounding and with more pop hooks! Not that the old version was inferior by any stretch of the imagination, and not to worry long-time fans, Boat is still Boat. The animal imagery, falsetto choruses, and sincere yet over the top delivery is all still there, only now it sounds so much better. Setting the Paces is like a rush of sugar to the head. The band is now officially a four piece [...]

The Answering Machine storms London's Borderline (10/16)

The Answering Machine storms London's Borderline (10/16) The best concerts are full of surprises. So when I read that Manchester's The Answering Machine would take the stage at 8 p.m., I hauled ass to arrive half an hour early. The band's set didn't start until past ten, however. The highly anticipated Friday night gig took place at The Borderline, a very intimate venue which is essentially an underground pub with a performing space tacked on. Hidden away down a small alley, there was no queue to speak of, and inside the venue it was essentially empty. [...]

Zodiac Toys - Galaxy High

Zodiac Toys - Galaxy <span style="color: #384E60; background-color:#84CCF2">High</span> There's certainly no messing about on this soon to be released tape from Joey Chainsaw and Hoist Ghost , as you're instantly plunged into a churn-bucket of sonic bladed Suicide repetition. A symphony of manic, dot matrix printers recorded through a battered cassette deck, the horizon filled up with Casio fuzzed / gtr alarm. Emergency signatures stuck together with gluey fingers. Ivory stabs hit across the solid note pulse. Sprawling out like some spiky mutation, all that treble making you dizzy… The spectrum, a deliciously dirty lo-fi as strung out illuminations blink from underneath [...]

Junior Boys Chop Suey

Junior Boys Chop Suey And chop it, did they ever. Junior Boys , from Toronto and the electronic blue abyss, put on a deft display of chilled electro ballads and thumping dance inducers Saturday night. This was my second time in their presence and they didn't disappoint. Lack of disappointment is inherent to their impassioned synthetic craft . Chop Suey, on the other hand, I've kind of come to loathe attending shows at given how headliners rarely take the stage before midnight. Which, fine, it's [...]

CMJ Posts 2009 Schedule

CMJ released the band schedule for its 2009 Music Marathon & Film Festival yesterday, which is about as good a sign of fall hitting New York as the return of apple cider at Greenmarket. The festival runs from Oct. 20 - Oct. 24 and includes various venues throughout the city, and the list of featured artists would probably take all four days to read through. But skimming the selection reveals a fairly equal distribution of well-known acts like Atlas Sound and Deer Tick , anonymous locals (including krautrock-y Jeff Buckley-channelers Pocketknife), twenty-two bands who [...]

Full CMJ Schedule Released Today

The press release below doesn't actually list all the acts performing at CMJ this year, so you're probably better off checking out cmj.sched.org to get a true idea of what's happening during this year's marathon. Of course, sched.org is a little confusing too and it doesn't list unofficial events and day parties (as far as I know), so you'll have to wait a little bit longer for info to trickle out from the blogs and other unofficial sources. Lastly, even though the press release says the schedule is "final", you can pretty much bet that things will shift [...]

Slaid Cleaves Covers: Fred Eaglesmith, Del McCoury, Ana Egge and a bunch of other musicians you've never heard of

Slaid Cleaves Covers: Fred Eaglesmith, Del McCoury, Ana Egge and a bunch of other musicians you've never heard of I was introduced to Austin-by-way-of-Maine singer-songwriter and unmatched musical storyteller Slaid Cleaves at the turn of the century through local radioplay, and the subsequent purchase of then-new release Broke Down. But I was grateful to be reminded of Slaid's genius last week through a thorough and appropriately celebratory look back at Broke Down over at This Mornin' I Am Born Again , where fellow folkblogger and Star Maker Machine co-contributor Payton uses Slaid's setting of Woody Guthrie's lyrics as a namesake song. To the extent that anyone [...]

Justice Team Up With Lenny Kravitz

After 90 minutes of car chases, pregnancy scares and high strung drama you've shoot the villain in the head and gotten the girl - so what happens next? High fives? Sexy times? Celebratory protein shake? Nope you walk around like a schmuck while the end credits ruin your life. At least that's what happens in the Keith Schofield directed video for Justice and Lenny Karvitz's "Let Love Rule". You'd think Lenny Kravitz's pipes and Justice's bombastic stomp would soundtrack only the most uplifting of victories but after some amusing visual tricks the clip's protagonist breaks [...]

Is Lady GaGa Going To Choke On The "Fame Kills" Tour?

Like the Timex Social Club, I spend a lot of time lamenting the rumors that surround me every day. How do they get started? And where do they get crazy? In Truthmonger, I'll try to suss out the kernels of truth in the rumors that are taking up airspace in gossip columns, blogs, and our tips inbox. THE RUMOR: Despite defending the high-strung MC over his weeks-old Video Music Awards outburst , Lady GaGa has had it with Kanye is pulling out of her "Fame Kills" jaunt with Kanye West. [...]

Sleek - Fall 2009 Dubstep Mix

Sleek - Fall 2009 Dubstep Mix Shawn Lee from the Bass + Kicks camp is a man of many trades. He's a blogger , DJ , graphic artist and promoter for the Cool Shoes monthly (just to name a few). Recently he's picked up yet another hat : dubstep production under the Sleek alias. Here's his fall mix of rugged, aggressive dubstep, complete with metal breakdowns and industrial motifs. Check for a bonus Sleek remix after the jump. It's quite an impressive little choon, especially for someone who's just taken [...]

Fresh Squeezed: Tristen

This Chicago native has packed up and moved to a town that better suits her brand of high strung pop-filled take on country music. Tristen Gaspadarek is a fireball in the body of a pixie, and has spent the last year pacing the streets of Nashville and clearly absorbing the rich musical history. Despite her slight and slender appearance Tristen packs a big deep throated punch. She currently has a tour ep that can only be purchased at her show, but is hard at work on her debut LP currently called Charlatans at the Gate . [...]
