New Jersey singer-songwriter Jessica Poland (better known as Charlotte Sometimes ) has released a new track entitled "Stay In My Heart"

Es viernes y como cada semana ha llegado el momento de presentarles las actuaciones en vivo más interesantes de los últimos días, ocurridas en todo lo largo y ancho del globo terráqueo y traídas a nosotros gracias a la magia del internet. Comenzamos esta semana con uno de mis grupos favoritos de toda la vida: The Cure . La banda comandada por el gran y único Robert Smith no ha lanzado nada nuevo desde el 2008, sin embargo, tiene 35 años de material con el cual deleitar los oídos de cualquier aficionado a la música, [...]

JEMINA PEARL REVEALS DEBUT LP Jemina Pearl , our favorite rioting, rambunctious, rancorous ex- Be Your Own Pet frontwoman shotgunned our faces off last week with the announcement that her debut LP sits ready and raring to rend our ears straight from our smiling mugs. We've already listened to the excellent ' Get Awkward -era' tracks posted on JP's Myspace page (the summery, subversive edge of "Ecstatic Appeal", the bouncey, shredding brain-addled boogie of "Heartbeats", and the croony, garage-rock mashup of "Nashville Shores") and with the release [...]
LISSY TRULLIE LIVE IN AUSTIN Pretty amazing show this week care of NYC garage-rocker extraordinaire Lissy Trullie whose unique brand of smoldering, soulful tunes took on a new life in a live setting, punching up the volume and adding depth and passion to already heartfelt songs. Playing through every single track off of her Self-Taught Learner EP including the rare b-side "You Bleed You", the band sounded confident and adventurous, cranking up the tempo on some songs and implanting feedback-laden riffs into others. Dressed in tattered jeans, a wife-beater, and six-inch heels [...]

CHARLOTTE SOMETIMES INTERVIEW New York-based, Jersey-born singer-songwriter Charlotte Sometimes defies easy explanation. A regular on last year's Warped Tour and a favorite of Alternative Press Magazine, some might mistake her music for scenester pop or Dashboard Confessional girl edition until they actually hear the incredibly clever, insightful, and soulful creations that are her songs. Which isn't to say that she's too good for those crowds, more so that she takes their sonic palette and expands them into a delightfully precocious world that's a mixture of darkly humorous alt-rock and catchy pop-hooks. Suffice [...]

THE KILLERS REVEAL "HUMAN" Straight off the announcement their new LP will be entitled Day & Age comes the first leaked track from the upcoming third album from Las Vegas' own The Killers called "Human". Reminding of Elton John ballad with extra synth and Brandon Flowers' warbly, emotive voice, the track finds that sensitive balance between the electro-rock of Hot Fuss and the Springsteen-bombast of Sam's Town . Definitely leaves us wanting more, check it out below. The Killers - "Human" [...]

I've got to tell you guys, if you could read the blog that I write everyday in my head , you would be impressed. Instead, Captain Procrastinator (TM) fights evil and tyranny, and listens to lots of cool stuff, and thinks deeply about the pressing issues of the day and then - duh! - forgets to tell anyone. Here are some of the things I've been meaning to mention recently: Common Reaction is the new CD by Uh Huh Her and has helpfully been reviewed by [...]
