Somehow, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs have become the most consistent band to spring from that early '00s New York scene. The Strokes sputtered their way into mediocrity, while Interpol could never break away from the shadow of their impressive debut. Meanwhile, the group who seemed the likeliest to combust not only survived, but continued to thrive, churning out three excellent records that each had an individual identity. In a live setting, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs played to their strengths: Karen [...]

Holy fuck this is what an epic song sounds like! After all these years Swans prove once again why they are one of the greatest with " Mother Of This World ." Sure I could spend the next hour explaining how important Swans are, if you don't already know Google them it's going to save us both some time, instead I'm going to make this little post as short as possible so I can listen to this track on repeat uninterrupted for the next hour. There are songs that [...]
The downside to writing about new music everyday is that the whole process can feel rather daunting from time to time. Hours upon hours spent shuffling through hundreds of songs looking for one more diamond in the rough, it's a perpetual never ending cycle and it saddens me how numb things begin to sound with so many bands doing similar things, every couple of months though some song will come along reminding me what it is that keeps me in love with music and why I began doing this so many years ago, " The Match " from The [...]

![[Listen/Watch] – Trent Reznor And Karen O – “Immigrant Song” (Led Zeppelin Cover)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3483623_lg.jpg)
Tweet So, David Fincher, the first trailer for your last movie The Social Network featured a cover of Radiohead 's "Creep" by Belgian girls' choir Scala and Kolacny Brothers. The popularity of that inspired scoring choice broke the choir in the states and led to their first North American performance at SXSW this year and a slot at Coachella - how could Fincher possibly one-up himself after that one? Believe it or not, he's done exactly that with the [...]

![[Ones to Watch] – Introducing – My Gold Mask](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3399879_lg.jpg)
Tweet My Gold Mask is a duo from Chicago whose austere sound is dynamic and infectious. Gretta Rochelle sings lead and plays drums to Jack Armondo's stripped-down guitar chords. His backup vocals give "Violet Eyes" an additional eerie feeling to Rochelle's piercing vocals that could probably actually and metaphorically "drive nails into your heart." Despite the similarities between Karen O of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Rochelle, "Violet Eyes" adds something almost sadistic and dark - the lingering guitar strokes, the repetitive clanging, [...]
Santigold feat. Karen O - Go Santigold will always have something to say about society. Even though she has been relatively quiet for the past three years, Santigold is ready to open her big mouth once again. Joined by with Yeah Yeah Yeah’s frontwoman, Karen O, and producers Q-Tip and Switch, Santigold’s new single is a post-apocalyptic punk sounding track that comments on deteriorating evolution of the American Dream. “This song comments on the era we live in and the NEW American dream. [...]

Continue reading: Santigold x Karen O - "Go" [...]
Who would have ever thought this gnarly of a collaboration would have ever seen the light of day? Santigold, whether you like her or not, makes some catchy ass music. With the help of two more of my favorite artists, Karen O on vocals and Q-Tip on production, "Go", is a fun little jam that has me all sorts of excited on this beautiful day. With additional production from Switch, and guitar work from Nick Zinner, I can't help but compliment this cast of musicians on how well this project came together. This song will appear on Santigold's Santogold [...]
