Back in 2009, Lotus Plaza (just one of the many projects of Deerhunter guitarist Lockett Pundt) quietly released The Floodlight Collective , a Kranky records long-player comprised of ten loop-based tracks equal parts bedroom-pop and bliss-out ambient. On February 14 th , in celebration of that project's forthcoming follow-up, Spooky Action at a Distance, Portland based label Audraglint will release a limited 10" featuring two tracks for two separate projects – both Lotus Plaza and Nice Weekend, a project comprised of Pundt and his fiancé Shayda Yavari, are presented – of the musician's exo-Deerhunter material.

D'Angelo By Joel Stagg February 3, 2012 Back last autumn when I purchased tickets to see D'Angelo at the slightly generous price of £40 a pop, the normal feelings of excitement and anticipation rubbed shoulders with some less usual ones. D'Angelo's so-called sabbatical since the year 2000 when he dropped Voodoo, inhabited by well-publicised dalliances with drugs, alcohol abuse, rehabilitation in Antigua and dalliances on the wrong side of the law, led to a certain morbid curiosity and also a sense of trepidation. It [...]

Hotpants Romance - who have been on maternity hiatus - are back. They're returning on Valentine's Day at Salford University. (Sorry - that should be 'Salford University: Manchester', shouldn't it?) This is what we've been missing: -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch

Well, we have some news to cheer anyone up whose been embracing Blue Monday (aka the most depressing day of the year) The first "official" single from Sleigh Bells upcoming 2nd LP, Reign of Terror ! "Comeback Kid" has all the elements, you have come to love from the duo in the last couple years. Allison Kraus spitting melodic vocals over ear exploding guitars. So good. I must add that's some pretty appropriate and wonderful artwork. Comeback Kid by Sleigh Bells

The second commercial album from Sleigh Bells, Reign of Terror, is set to drop on February 21st, and they're just released their first "official" single off the album in preparation. "Comeback" has all of the elements that we've grown to expect from Sleigh Bells' unique style - if you're a fan of old, you'll be into this. Tweet

After a five year hiatus, James Mercer is back as The Shins with an entirely new cast of band members. But thankfully, though much as changed in the blogosphere, Mercer hasn't lost his penchant for gushing power pop and lovesick poetics. A first listen to "Simple Song," off the forthcoming Port of Morrow , and it's clear that Mercer is back to his old tricks. The pinning pipes of his voice are still there, the jangle of his guitar lines still ring true, and his melodic twists and turns are as infectious as [...]

Finally, we're blessed with new music from The Shins . "Simple Song" is the first single off the band's upcoming record, Port of Morrow . The last time we've heard from James Mercer, he was busy working on Broken Bells with Danger Mouse, so we haven't had new Shins material for quite awhile. The sound on the new track is some of the biggest production I have heard out of the band, and some of the highest notes Mercer has ever hit before. Defintely makes me reminisce about the Oh, Inverted World Era. It comes off quite anthemic, and not [...]

Gordon brings news of an attempt by Paris Hilton to relaunch her music career with a house album. House, Paris? She said: "I have a huge passion for house music. It always has been my passion. I just haven't been able to focus on it, because I have been doing reality TV for so long now. Yeah, I could see how you'd have to do a bit of TV, in order to get a few quid behind you before launching your house career. Oddly, though, IMDB suggests she made eight episodes of [...]

It's hard to get that excited about the fourth coming of The Happy Mondays , especially as there's a tawdry attempt to try and shoehorn it in onto The Stone Roses comeback, as Gordon explains: A source said: "After the success of The Stone Roses reunion, there's a real clamour to get the group back on the road and document it properly."[...] [T]his time they want to do it properly, with full tour dates and possible slots with The Stone Roses. You'll bet they want to sneak onto the Roses' dates, which will turn this latest reunion [...]

This was always going to happen: After the Steps reunion, here comes the S Club 7 reunion . It's not quite out of the blue, as there's already a rump of a band: J O'Meara, Bradley McIntosh and Paul Cattermole still play gigs at universities and clubs, as S Club 3. In other words, nearly half of them haven't even got any dignity to lose. The plan is to copy Steps' every move make a reality TV show the heart of the reunion. Reality TV? Yeah, that worked out well for Jo [...]

The Family - one of those strange creatures flung together by Prince when he was at the height of his powers - are back, back, back . Only, erm, they're now trading as fDeluxe. Sure, The Family was a better name for a cult than a band. But fDeluxe? It sounds like a probiotic product. To give the band their due, they're under no starry-eyed confuison about their creation myth: Paul Peterson: [Prince] wanted to create something that would be funky but get into some of that Duran Duran money at the same [...]

American Nightmare announced 2 reunion shows yesterday. For every person massively excited, there was one asking, "WHO??" Tom Doyle loves this band. Here is why.

You know that other kind of comeback? The one where a band gets together to do unfinished work rather than because of unpaid solicitor's bills? Mazzy Star are about to release their first record in 15 years . It's a single called Common Burn , and has an Amazon download page waiting for its release on Halloween. -- Visit No Rock & Roll Fun to comment, complain and kvetch

Are you a woman who has been out of the workforce for sometime and needs to re-enter the career world? Perhaps you have taken time off due to child-raising or caring for a sick or elderly family member. Maybe you are feeling some anxiety because you know your skill set is out-of-date or even nonexistent. If this describes your situation, the first thing you'll want to do is take one or more career aptitude tests. The information you can get from these tests will enable you to build a road map to your future [...]

Released today on Think 2Wice Records is the much anticipated Star Time EP by DJ Melo . The EP features 6 original tracks as well as remixes by Sazon Booya , Boyfriend and Fellow , all of which have done a great work on making this release a must-have. Current favorites of mine off this EP are "Lunar Eclipse" and "The Comeback" which are two big bangers and also "Corrosion", a beautifully crafted track that has been on repeat for the past 20 minutes or so. Preview some tracks taken from Star Time [...]

Not saying this is going to be the magic wand that resurrects Method Man's career - but don't you feel like dude deserves ONE more chance at a comeback? I mean. I loved Mr. Mef growing up. (Who didn't?)

I try not to post too much music that's readily available at other Internetly places, especially when it comes to "hot new releases". But the new Rapture album came across my radar, and hearing this comeback effort, I couldn't help but remember the music climate of the early 'aughts, when you couldn't throw a stone in New York and not hit a dancepunk band of variable cruddiness. It was a nice triumph of the erudite music nerds taking over the dance floor and dictating the soundtrack. But at the same time, this band [...]
