One of punk's omnipresents and with that one of its most perennially innovatory practitioners, Mike Watt is of course a man worthy of utmost reverence. He co-founded the Minutemen, fIREHORSE, makes up one of two in dos, and has lately had The Stooges' lower end covered. His bass has shuddered ATP to its core more times than most onsite stomachs have grumbled, and now he returns with his most intriguing (and I'd go so far as to say momentarily ingenius) project in yonkers, with that being Il Sogno del Marinaio . Translated to  Seaman's Dream , Watt this time [...]

Filed under: News Vimeo With the presidential election drawing near, activists around the country are still fighting to get people motivated to head to the voting booths. And one PSA is utilizing music and celebrity to urge women to vote against Mitt Romney. "You Don't Own Me" is a lip-syncing montage set to Lesley Gore 's 1964 hit of the same name. You'll recognize a lot of famous faces in there, including Carrie Brownstein [...]

Machete Gang Holiday - Firehorse It's been said that having a breakdown leads to a breakthrough. It seems Leah Siegel would agree. A musician living in Brooklyn (down the street from where her grandfather grew up), Ms. Siegel has spent the last couple of years breaking out her most recent musical project, Firehorse   (@thisisfirehorse), and last year released her first album as such ( And So They Ran Faster ) to much acclaim. “I can’t remember which happened first,” Siegel says over the phone, on a break from a recording [...]

Filed under: Monthly Mixtape Flickr For the past 30 days, we've sat here wondering what next month will bring. Will July bear more jobs, better pay, less zombies and no more EDM? Will my 16-year-old brother actually pass his driver's test? Will we accept that Anderson Cooper is a gay man? Who's to say? What I do know is this, we have 30 songs for you to plunder and ponder. We started off June with a [...]

Midway through an epoch culturally formulated according to obsessional compartmentalisation into which supergroups slot in order that they may systematically perpetuate the careers of the already-perennial and predominantly tedious, it's not only a relief but also a wonder a band such as Anywhere even exist. Needless to say Zwan this ain't and although the likes of Cedric Bixler-Zavala, Mike Watt and Christian Eric Beaulieu certainly reinsert the 'super' into the aforenamed term, perhaps the greatest strength of this eponymous debut is that it wholly literally sounds as though it could've come from Anywhere whilst simultaneously, quite gloriously, seeming [...]

Filed under: News , Exclusive , In House Gino DePinto, AOL I first met Leah Siegel, the Brooklyn-based mastermind behind Firehorse , on an RV, of all places.

Filed under: Video of the Day Artist: Firehorse Video: 'Charlie Darwin (The Low Anthem Cover)' Highlight: "Having done work with charities that aid Africa before, I was drawn to and deeply touched by what the Voice Project does," singer-songwriter Leah Siegel tells Spinner.
