Given the recent developments of his longtime friend and bandmate Clarence Clemons, a new studio album is probably the last thing on Bruce Springsteen 's mind. But as Blogness on the Edge of Town points out, a recent update on producer Ron Aniello's website seems to indicate that the follow-up to 20092s Working on a Dream might not be too far off. Aniello, whose resume includes work with Barenaked Ladies, Guster, and Springsteen's wife, Patti Scialfa, now lists himself as a producer on the "forthcoming album" by [...]
Is producer Mike Elizondo a weird match for Mastodon? Do you foresee Mastodon jamz with funky beats and cloying catchphrases? Is this pairing the result of label meddling, artist contrarianism, and/or ambition? Will Elizondo grapple with the Mastodon sensibility or is he a mute concession to a returns-hungry record label? Mastodon's triumphant 2009 album, Crack The [...]

En diciembre de 2009 algunos rumores comenzaron a circular acerca de la existencia de un disco solista de Brandon Flowers ; aunque al principio esto fue negado por los representantes de The Killers y por el mismo Flowers. En enero de 2010 The Killers anunciaron que descansarían después del segmento australiano y asiático de la gira de su album Day & Age ; así lo confimaría más tarde el guitarrista Dave Keuning, al apuntar que ya llevaban 6 años sin parar de tocar y que necesitaban un [...]

La notizia era nell'aria da tempo, ma adesso, finalmente, ha assunto tutti i crismi dell'ufficialità: direttamente dal portale dei The Killers apprendiamo infatti che "Flamingo" , la nuova creatura solista del cantante della band, Brandon Flowers , comincerà ad appiccare il fuoco del rock nel cuore dei propri fans a partire dal prossimo 6 settembre . Come ben sapranno coloro che ci seguono appassionatamente (e siete tanti, vero? ...VERO? ... :D ), in questi giorni abbiamo avuto un piccolo assaggio di "Flamingo" attraverso la diffusione in streaming (sempre dal portale della band di [...]
Yeah, that's right. Brandon Flowers . The Killers frontman. New solo album Flamingo out September 14. (Following those DC News Feeds?) Lead single "Crossfire" hits radio on June 21 but we had to give listen. Big, arena-sized anthem worships, as expected, at the twin altars of U2 and Bruce. (No wonder he tapped Daniel Lanois and Brendan O'Brien to help shape the production along with Killer's studio guide Stuart Price.) Nothing groundbreaking stylistically but it does kind of creep out of the car speakers with nice kick. [...]

Flamingo , el disco solista de Brandon Flowers está dando que hablar ya que se tratará del primero que lanzará el vocalista de The Killers , una de las bandas más importantes de la década (al menos gracias a Hot Fuss ). Hace poco lo anunció y ayer les comenté que si bien algunos fanáticos tenían miedo que esto enfriara las relaciones entre los miembros del grupo Flowers comentó que hará exactamente lo opuesto y lo único que hará es fortalecerlas. Ahora, poco a poco vamos enterándonos de [...]

The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers recently sat down with NME to talk about his forthcoming debut solo album. Flowers is set to release the album, which he has titled ' Flamingo ', in autumn. Flowers told NME that he had worked with a handful of producers on the solo album including ' Day & Age ' producer Stuart Price , Daniel Lanoid , and Brendan O'Brien . The singer also revealed plans to tour the solo album later [...]
Up until now, details pertaining to Brandon Flowers' forthcoming solo debut Flamingo have been rather limited. In fact, the only thing we really know is that's he is releasing it. But compliments of a recent sitdown between The Killers frontman and UK magazine NME (via TwentyFourBit ) we now know a bit more of what to expect when he releases the album later this year. Yes, kids, you can finally sleep peacifully again. So what'd we learn? For one, if Flower had his way, this wouldn't be his album at all. "To be [...]

Aside from a brief audio snippet, album title, and Vegas-inspired logo, details about Brandon Flowers' solo debut have been scant ever since Flamingo was announced last month. In this week's print edition of NME (via ONTD ), however, Flowers revealed some specifics about his forthcoming record that make the whole project sound a lot more interesting. "[Rilo Kiley's] Jenny [Lewis has] helped me out on a couple of songs, and we also got to duet on a song called 'Hard Enough,' which turned out great," said Flowers. [...]

Filed under: News , New Music After rumors that Brendan O'Brien , who's known for his work with Pearl Jam , Bruce Springsteen and Rage Against the Machine , would be working on the Madonna record circulated last week , the producer told HitFix that he's made no plans to collaborate with the pop star. "No one has contacted me about working with Madonna," he said. "Someone actually showed me something today that said that Bruce Springsteen was going [...]

L'anno appena cominciato molto probabilmente ci regalerà un nuovo album di inediti di Madonna , il primo dell' era post-Warner. Vista la levatura del personaggio e la sua attitudine al trasformismo in fatto di stili, look e influenze, è già partito il chiacchiericcio sul progetto che vede coinvolti -come al solito- pezzi grossi del music-biz mondiale. Dopo la parentesi urban e R'n'B di Hard Candy , Madge pare sia decisa a fare un'incursione nel rap e nel rock: ecco dunque spiegata la chiamata a corte dei produttori A-Trak e Brendan O'Brien . [...]
No offense, but does anyone else find it hard to trust metal websites whose titles don't include the actual word "metal?" Take AOL's Noisecreep. To me "noise" is what fills Merzbow's fifteen yearly albums; "creep" is a moanthem by poutypants Radiohead. But only petty jerks care about names (cough). Plus, Noisecreep scribe Carlos Ramirez is [...]

The 52nd annual Grammy nominations came out last night with one glaring omission. Green Day's excellent 21st Century Breakdown was not nominated for Album of the Year. How is that possible? While I like the new Dave Matthews Band Big Whiskey and the Groogrux King album, it's not better than Green Day. The Black Eyed Peas The E.N.D. sure as hell isn't. While I'm sure Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift and Beyonce have their moments, song for song, there is no way they [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Holy Hell The hottest soap opera in rock right now is Aerosmith . The question of whether or not Steven Tyler is still in the band is a melodrama that makes the last days of Velvet Revolver and Scott Weiland look downright banal. First a recap of the week's events: Tuesday night in New York City, Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler joined guitarist Joe Perry onstage to announce he was not leaving the band [...]
When it was released in 2000, the critical acclaim for Bachelor No. 2 was immediate and fawning. Now, 10 years after the fact, it's a perfect time to look back at Mann's opus, via a song-by-song review.
