Bruce Springsteen. Los oriundos de Boston, los Dropkick Murphys , llevan a cabo su segunda acción para recaudar fondos para las víctimas por el bombardeo de hace un mes en esa ciudad. Primero, hicieron una playera edición especial que pusieron a la venta a través de su sitio. Ahora, reclutaron a Bruce Springsteen para grabar un EP. Spingsteen y los Murphys se juntaron para hacer una nueva versión de "Rose Tattoo", original de los segundos. Además, el EP tendrá dos canciones acústicas en vivo: “Don’t Tear Us Apart” y “Jimmy [...]

On the night of April 19, when Boston Police captured Dzhokhar Tsarnaev inside of a parked boat found in a Watertown driveway, the Boston bombing suspect scrawled a note on the inside wall of the boat's cabin. CBS News reports that, as police were shooting up the cabin, Sam Peckinpah-style, Tsarnaev took a pen to one of the bullet hole-riddled walls to claim retribution for what the U.S. did to Muslims during the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. Tsarnaev called the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing collateral damage, much like how Muslims were [...]

Next Wednesday, May 22, Radio (381 Somerville Ave.) in Somerville will be playing host to a benefit show for the Boston Marathon victims. The event, titled "Concert for Boston: An Evening to Benefit Victims of the Marathon" has a line-up full of local favorites and newcomers alike. The opening act, Greater Fools, is a new side-project from Troy Ramey, previous front-man for the now-defunct In Like Lions. If his previous band was any indication, Greater Fools will be sure to start the night off with great energy and catchy hooks. [...]

Dylan Ewen // Alt 2013 Boston noisemaker Dylan Ewen is back with a four-song EP of carbonated fuzz pop. Last fall Dylan put out his album Fort Worthless , a cheeky little album full of snotty youthful angst that I liked a whole lot . Following in the same vein as that album, this new EP Alt 2013 touches on a lot of the same subjects: girls, failed relationships, self-deprecation and occultic imagery as reappropriated by a third-grader. He even follows up “You’re a Bitch” [...]

Had a good Mother's Day with mama ON&ON. She needed a new spring jacket, so I took her to Goodwill in Central Square. I copped her a Donna Karan lil sumthin for $7 and I was a hero. We sat outside on a bench building, while watching three Central Square homeless drunks take turns falling in the middle of the sidewalk in front of horrified fgt M.I.T. professors. We discussed the fact my mother is disgusted with the Cleveland Basement Rapist's mom declaring that she is sorry, and suffering with everyone else involved [...]

To those of us who have completely immersed ourselves in the realm of electronic music, a true appreciation for live instrumentation can sometimes come out of nowhere, slap us in the face and remind us that these are the pieces of equipment that made our type of music possible in the first place! So what/who made me come to this realization so recently?   Well the what is the electric guitar and the who...was none other then the almighty Grammatik and a little group by the name of Cherub. Cherub, an enthusiastic electro groove duo who embody the sounds of soul, [...]

From The Boston Globe: This week’s lightning and rain has brought some relief, but Quincy residents worry that the drone of small planes flying overhead will soon return. Residents say that since late April, they have suffered from the sound of low-flying planes, which are making continuous loops above their homes through the day and night. And government officials will not say who is flying the planes or why. “It was every six minutes this loop would take, and it’s doing this arch,” said Michael Gundersen, who lives in Wollaston.

While searching for new music I typically go to Spotify, because it has just about everything. The other day I came across the Boston based power-pop group Pretty & Nice , and man am I glad I came across them! The group recently released their second full length album,  Golden Rules For Golden People , and it has been in my everyday rotation ever since.  I was lucky enough to get the guys to answer a few questions for The Nosebleeds about their latest release, Boston, writing, and their future plans.

Samira Winter just received a degree in Broadcast Journalism from Emerson College, but has spent her college years cutting her teeth in the Boston underground music scene. Hailing from Brazil, Winter is one of Samira's side projects when she's not DJ-ing, producing short films, or working for her online zine "Wow & Flutter". Joined with fellow students Nolan Eley, Kyle Oppenheimer, and Ana Karina DaCosta to develop some of the dreamiest, most forward-thinking sound in the scene. The collaboration started solely with Winter and Eley corresponding, she with rough recordings and he with expert production skills, [...]

La data del Diamonds Tour era stata rimandata da marzo ma anche il recupero del concerto non ha evitato polemiche... Il tour di Rihanna sta sicuramente ottenendo attenzione. Oltre al buon successo di vendite delle date finora effettuate, ci sono state anche alcune problematiche legate ai concerti. Una delle prime è stata la laringite che ha costretto la cantante a cancellare alcune tappe previste proprio all'inizio del suo Diamonds Wolrd Tour. C'è stato poi un problema tecnico che ha provocato un ritardo di oltre novanta minuti nella tappa prevista in Canada [...]

Deli Readers, Last week, due to a sudden server emergency, we had to abruptly transfer our site to a new server, and because of this many features and pages are still not working properly. We hope you can excuse us while our programmers try to fix them - it ain't always so easy! The Deli's Staff

A few years back, a respected blogger of mine told me that if you don't have anything to say about a song, it's not worth posting. But for me, sometimes the music is all I have to say. I can usually wrap a story around a song or at least put some entertainment with it, but sometimes I haven't had enough time with the music and it's just too hot to sit on. Well, I've been sitting on Madeaux's EP for far too long now. The first two tracks are especially worth looking into, with [...]

Thank God people still know how to play rock n' roll. That was my first thought when I heard Whatever Forever , the latest release by New Hampshire-based quartet The Migs . After going to college in New Hampshire, I have become accustomed to associating that area of New England with smelly hippies and boring, repetitive jam music (my sincerest apologies to anyone who is a Trey Anastasio fan). Naturally, I was pleasantly surprised with The Migs' raucous, surfy, 60s-inspired tunes. In fact, the middle of "When She says My Name" immediately conjured-up images of The Kinks playing [...]

I'll come up with a cleverer title after some more coffee. For now, it's this week in Boston hip hop... Perhaps in your blind love for JTTS you've overlooked some other fine Boston-based music blogs floating around on the Interweb, such as HITPmusic.com , which stands for Hard In the Paint. When you open your laptop with your cup of coffee and morning blunt thinking to yourself "What is going on [...]
