It's that time at last! Triple J Hottest 100 voting has opened. For those that don't let their musical intelligence be insulted by Triple J, this year promises to be another hard slog at getting those 10 tracks perfectly right, so that you can just tick them off as they come up one by one on the 26th January. Well... at least that's what it used to be like. It's been only 10 years ago now, that Queens of the Stone Age held the number 1 spot with their mental track "No One Knows", and only five years [...]

Suggested NYC Concerts The Best Indie Shows Hand-picked Each Week Photo credit: Shervin It's already Hanukkah and nearly time for Christmas, which means holiday parties and time off from school and work in the very near future. In some cities, I'd imagine that this could be a slower time of year for music. Not as many bands are on tour so you don't get the big names, right? Well, this is New York City so that doesn't [...]

Frank Yang Every good thing you've heard about Cat Power live is true, and also a lie; the same goes for every bad thing. The reputation that Chan Marshall gained as a fragile, erratic performer over the first decade or so of her career may have seemed overstated to mythic proportions, but few have made great efforts to dispute it. I can't speak from experience - though a modest fan since Moon Pix , I'd avoided seeing her in concert because of that reputation and reports from the Toronto shows I'd [...]

Kyle Dean Reinford Much has changed for New Jersey punks Titus Andronicus since they unleashed the grandiose historical allegory/saga of The Monitor on the world in 2010. On the plus side, the success of that record raised their profile by an exponential degree, expanding their audience well beyond the dudes looking for a soundtrack to their mosh pit demographic. But on the down side, after they wrapped the heavy touring regimen in support of The Monitor , guitarist Amy Klein - who despite not being on the record was [...]

Not much needs to be said this week. This might be the height week of the year in terms of good music. Not only are Band of Horses out with their highly anticipated Mirage Rock album, but there's tons more to listen to. Let's briefly rattle off some names since there's simply way to much to cover. B en Folds Five ... what's not to like? Each album they come out with is pretty darn good; the equivalent of Matt Pond PA for me, really. Grizzly Bear 's highly anticipated album Shields is [...]

Aimee Mann – Charmer (Superego Records) Até a gigante Billboard já definiu esse nicho como um gênero formado: o Pop Adulto. Se esse gênero se tornasse um verbete no dicionário ou uma seção de enciclopédia, ao seu lado, lá estaria uma foto de Aimee Mann . Aimee Mann é a definição máxima do pop adulto, fundindo sempre Fleetwood Mac , Joni Mitchell , Jazz e seu estilo próprio de "Singer/Songwriter". A cantora ficou célebre ao emprestar canções para a trilha do clássico moderno Magnólia , de Paul Thomas [...]
