As we first announced here last March, Muruch’s musical mascot Allison Crowe has recorded an all-new, live album of her annual Tidings concert. The album features 19 in-concert performances and previously unreleased audio from Crowe’s popular "Hallelujah" video. Though Tidings does include some holiday songs, which I'm not into, it has several other great, non-seasonal [...]
How Cohen's 'Hallelujah' Became Everybody's 'Hallelujah' Alan Light's new book traces the bizarre cultural history of that very unicorn: "Hallelujah," metamorphosed over the years from a cheesy, reverb-heavy B-side oddity on an album Cohen's label rejected to a mystical, soul-stirring pop canticle that's played today at just as many weddings as funerals.
One of the more exciting runs in post-Dead history came to a close last night when Phil Lesh, John Medeski, John Scofield, Warren Haynes and Joe Russo finished a three-night stand at Terrapin Crossroads in San Rafael, Calif. As they did on the first two nights, the extremely talented combo mixed classics from the Grateful Dead songbook with assorted covers. [Photo by Scott Gordon] Among the quintet, Warren Haynes was the lone member known for his singing so he handled vocals for most of [...]

From the forthcoming Jesus Piece album. Game still got it! IMHO, at least. FIYA!!! [h/t: MP3waxx.com ]
Toronto concerts worth knowing about in November, 2012. November in Toronto is a bit of a trip back to the late 60s / early 70s with The Who , Bob Dylan and Neil Young all passing through our suddenly cold city. Of course there's the usual barrage of up and comers as well — DIANA , Mac DeMarco and Paper Diamond are acts garnering significant attention right now, despite their relative youth. Halloween might be over but that just means you have to look out [...]
In case you hadn't heard, Local H are back with Hallelujah, I’m a Bum , which our own Audrey Leon described as reflecting,"...more of the characteristics of a Chicago winter: harsh, depressing and a bit bleak." But that reflection is positive one and possibly their best produced yet as her review reads . The Chicago mainstays recently dropped a video for the record's first single, "Cold Manor," a hard rocking take that showcases their prowess for injecting melodies within the riffage. The video is a bit is a scrapbook as it combines [...]
As ironic as their band name makes this sound: Fiery Crash 's timing couldn't be any better. With a new Helio Sequence album called Negotiations set for release on September 11, there is nothing that gets us more amped than some beautiful covers such as this one. Sans drums, computer and with the addition of some folk-styled vocals, Fiery Crash dropped a great chill acoustic cover to add to your summer beach mix. The one that you'll be relaxing to, that is - not the other one with all of [...]
In occasione del concerto tenuto al Forum di Kentish Town, Londra, i KISS hanno suonato dal vivo il brano Hell Or Hallelujah , primo singolo estratto dal nuovo album Monster . Potete ammirare l'esibizione nel video amatoriale in apertura. Monster , in arrivo il prossimo 25 ottobre , sarà il ventesimo album in studio nella longevissima carriera della band. Registrato a metà fra gli Conway Recording Studios di Hollywood e il The Nook in Studio City a Los Angeles, Monster è stato prodotto dal cantante Paul Stanley [...]
Tracking down the audio clip previewing Kiss' "Hello or Hallelujah," set for release next week, wasn't easy. But we've got one - for now. The single arrives in advance of Monster, Kiss' 20th studio project - and first in three years. Co-founding bassist/blood-spewing wildman Gene Simmons has described it as a lean, heaving-rocking album more in keeping with their original [...]
This is the first in a series of new features on Listen Before You Buy , written by our own staff members but also other bloggers and site owners as well. Each writer will pick one artists who is no longer making music and provide an overview of their work as an Introduction to their music for new listeners who may be unsure of where to start. First up is Andy from the (sadly) now defunct blog Tympanogram and his Introduction to Jeff Buckley , a musician whose [...]
Titanic-Per non dimenticare Hallelujah Dopo 100 anni. Song: Imogen Heap-Hallelujah
Oggi è il giorno della Pasqua di Resurrezione e il nostro blog, come sempre accade durante le festività sceglie di celebrarle in musica. La nostra scelta è ricaduta quest'anno su un bellissimo brano di pace, ovvero "Hallelujah" degli israeliani Gali Atari & Milk Honey , brano vincitore dell'edizione 1979 ospitata in casa, a Gerusalemme. Li vediamo però in una esibizione durante l'interval act dell'edizione 1980, svoltasi a L'Aia, in Olanda, dopo la rinuncia proprio di Israele. La canzone è in ebraico, q ui c'è il testo in lingua inglese . Come sempre il nostro augurio è che [...]
Tyler+Caroline | Hallelujah Tornata, con un altro video su asdjhckjfajhgd, indovinate chi? I Forwood Forwood Forwood. Questo é abbastanza triste, però. Giravo su youtube e per caso ho rivisto la scena della morte di Marissa (personaggio della serie the OC), e boh, ho ricordato questa versione di Hallelujah, a mio parere da brivido. E siccome questo é un periodo un po' critico per il mio fake di Caroline, perché Tyler mi é caduto giù da un burrone (? anche no ee), ho deciso di fare questo... coso. D: Si capisce, più o meno, no? E' [...]
R.E.M. has had one hell of a run these past three decades. They started out while college students in Athens, Georgia in 1980 and have been playing and performing ever since. Michael Stipe et al announced the band's split earlier this year. Their final album, Part Lies Part Heart Part Truth Part Garbage 1982-2011 (Warner Bros.), is a comprehensive compilation retrospective consisting of forty tracks. A strong body of work. Three new cuts accompany the trip back in musical time. On the sensual, philosophical "We All Go Back To Where We Belong," Stipe sounds impassioned but tired, yet not so [...]
If you spent your days combing through Facebook or Bandcamp for local artists it would take you months to sift through them all. And man, how many dead ends you'd travel down; bad bands playing even worse music. But every once once in a while you'd stumble across something that made you pause for a moment, something that would make such an ostensibly ridiculous quest all worth it, even if for just few minutes. I'm not sure what Lawrenceville's Avian own music actually sounds like. I'm also sure I don't want know, at least not yet. [...]
Você está preparado para sentir pela última vez a sensação de ouvir algo inédito do R.E.M. ? É difícil, definitivamente, mas também é tentador. A NPR liberou nessa manhã a coletânea Part Lies Part Heart Part Truth Part Garbage , retrospectiva caprichadíssima da carreira da banda de Athens, Georgia, para audição completa. Se a carreira da banda pode ser dividida em "antes e depois" do álbum Automatic for the people , a coletânea segue exatamente esse raciocínio ao transformar o primeiro disco em uma seleção de faixas que se inicia com Gardening [...]
Género: Progressive rock pop. Naturales de Nueva York, de Brooklyn para ser más precisos, Jason Binnick, Kevin Hudson, Geremy Jasper, Chris Sanchez no conocen el dolor, y nos lo explican con esta propuesta beattleliana que asimila pop y rock a partes iguales de forma progresiva. Pero las influencias son muchas más, setenta, ochenta... si te has quedado con más ganas, de su álbum homónimo por bandcamp nos regalan cuatro cortes, y si te ha gustado también lo puedes adquirir por tan sólo 5$. [...]
Tweet Sounding like a curious mix of Wings and a coterie of bands signed by Alan McGee for his Poptones label hardly makes Hallelujah as confusing a crossbreed like that should. They are New York cool (not just in a way that living in Brooklyn affords that status), no doubt, for even though they list all of their names we hardly ever see their faces (how very B&S of them). Not that it matters, given that you have the sun going down [...]
You remembered what I said and you wrote it on the fucking concrete Washington. Amazing. Why are we not hearing this in the States? Megan Washington is a musician from Australia who goes by the name Washington. Washington won two Australian ARIA awards in 2010 for the debut album, I believe you liar . She has called upon various talented musicians to back her up and was able to afford to take them [...]
Are they indie? Are they dance? Does anyone care anymore? A classic of its time. From the B Side of the Rave On single, with vocal support from the late-lamented Kirsty MacColl. I prefer this to the other versions, since Kirsty dulls the pain from Shaun's bawling. Hard to believe this is from 1989, for goodness sake: Happy Mondays - Hallelujah (In Out Mix) Buy
