The Zoo Incident: Lovely – All too often love stories become watered-down and commonplace. We take for granted the sheer forces at work to bring two people together in a world of literally billions of people. Whether it's destiny or coincidence, finding your soul mate is not something to take lightly, and in their new album Lovely , The Zoo Incident pays tribute to their poetic beginnings. Since their formation in 2009 in Tucson, Arizona, Alex Hamby and Andrea Alaniz have been the true mainstays and the roots of the band. More recently, they have been [...]
Feb was full of stuff. A hell of a lot of stuff. So this list is full of the stuff that Feb was full of, but not full of the stuff that I already wrote a whole heap of stuff about. I've also omitted quite a few things which I'm going to spend my time writing [...]

Transformed from the so-called "Louis Vuitton don" to the purported "abomination of Obama's nation" and back to being the kingpin of his very own G.O.O.D. Music label, there's never a dull moment in the erratic, if excessively well documented and tabloid-infecting life of a certain Kanye West . And over a night on which he nonchalantly rattles off the second of three sold out London shows in the space of a week in the crimson round of the Hammersmith Apollo, the same can certainly be said of his live portrayal. It is something of a portrayal after [...]
After our three years of Local Suicide party at Bartausend (check photos here) we locked ourself in the studio and started producing a couple of tracks and remixes with some friends which will be released in the next couple of... READ MORE
Photo by G. Mike Daisey I recently discovered the work of monologist Mike Daisey . A few weeks ago, the goddess of everything cool, Aphrodite in New York and I checked out Mike Daisey's show that dealt with writer/philosopher Ayn Rand (ingeniously entitled "Fucking Fucking Fucking Ayn Rand") and basically why anyone that worships her work is limited in their thinking. I could never explain as eloquently (or as humorously) as Mike Daisey described her devotees, but basically I walked away from that [...]
Video by G. The other night I saw the incredibly funny Fred Armisen in concert. It was a mix of music, videos and stand up comedy. He told the audience that he is a master of doing impersonations of accents. In fact, he encouraged the audience to request an accent and Fred would impersonate it. And it went a little something like this... [...]
Since Yelle’s higly anticipated new track “L’Amour Parfait” was released last Monday (you can get it on our webstore or on iTunes!), and that the title is the perfect Valentine's Day theme, we asked her her "love" playlist! And as you will see the "A Cause Des Garçons" 's singer can also be a sentimental sweetheart! Here [...]
It's Lundi Gras y'all! Party Tonight at the Blue Nile w/ Dirty Bourbon & The Soul Rebels! Starts at 10pm - Be There
It appears that Finland is the most metal country in the world, but Norway is unquestionably the home of black metal, which is pretty metal. Norway is also home to By:Larm Festival , which is occurring on 13-16 February in Oslo. It's a great place for showcasing the finest in fresh Scandinavian talent of all genres, but obviously there's loads of metal there. We'd have made a nifty "Thrash Hits goes to By:Larm" header, but we're not going. However, while you don't need telling to go and see bands like Turbonegro [...]

"You can see why Lord Huron’s sound is striking a chord at a time when rootsy indie-folk is enjoying its sepia-toned time in the sun..." Lord Huron | The Lexington, London 08.02.13. “Come on you son of a bitch.” It’s two songs into Lord Huron’s second ever London show and things aren’t quite going according to plan. The sound is lumpy, almost dipping out altogether on occasions. Lead singer Ben Schneider’s main vocal microphone seems to be the culprit, having decided tonight is perhaps one performance too far, and the [...]

The tendency to shy away from all things heavy happens every time a terrorist attack happens or a school shooting takes place. It is typical for people to want to be comforted by some crappy sappy tunes to console themselves in times of trouble, but with the recent round of shootings I have been disturbed with another trend happening. Guns, yeah, violent video games, yeah, mental health issues, all possibly culpable, but no one is blaming metal anymore and I am tired of being left out. I want to hear Diane Feinstein or Chuck Shumer [...]
We're proudly presenting to you Crayon & Pyramid's first EP "So Far Gone", out February the 25th on Kitsuné ! The two spearheads of a new generation of French producers unite, ready to take things on! And these two are no strangers to each other, and neither less to Kitsuné. Pyramid, on the one hand, has [...]
If you've heard the tunes that UV RACE exhibit, you'd know that they create some raw garage punk, or as they like to note themselves - "idiot savant punk rock". Starting out in 2007, the Melbournian six piece started playing gigs and releasing their music via cassette. After moving on up to a vinyl format, they have since released a bunch of 73 singles, a soundtrack to their debut film Autonomy and Deliberation (which they're currently working on the sequel to), a split live casette with Eddy Current Suppression Ring - Live [...]

With the first show being this Friday, we're beating the churning anticipation [...]
