MTV crea historia animadas de Nirvana y LCD Soundsystem MTV es una fuerza cultural potente, aunque en estos días ya no goza del mismo impacto que obtuvo en los 90 y ha sido fuertemente criticado. Ahora, ha creado un nueva alternativa de entretenimiento: MTV Other , donde surgirán pequeñas formas de programación disponibles tanto en dispositivos móviles como en iPad o en su página en internet . Uno de los primeros trabajos es una serie titulada Rock Stories , donde la música y la luminaria icónica [...]

Jack White para SNL. A lo largo de la historia de la música hemos encontrado músicos, compositores y cantantes que llevan sus aficiones más allá, convirtiéndolas en obsesiones. Desde las matemáticas más oscuras y avanzadas hasta descifrar la fórmula de Kurt Cobain para escribir canciones. Estas manías muchas veces son las que han puesto a estos músicos en la mira y han hecho que logren composiciones legendarias. A continuación una lista con cinco genios musicales que han logrado que sus obsesiones se conviertan en algo más que locuras o simples prácticas excéntricas.

I'm so sick, so sick of u. And of that awesome album I overplayed. The post Question Of The Week: I Don't Wanna Hear It Anymore appeared first on MetalSucks .

Courtney Love is like that splinter in your foot that never came out and to this day still hurts from time to time. From calling out Dave Grohl to being dissed by Frances Bean Cobain the last year has not been so hot for the former rock and roll goddess. At the end of the day however Hole was a damn good band that put out some great tracks in the early '90s. In a new interview with Bust , Courtney Love revealed plans for a new solo album, tentatively titled "Died [...]

A couple of weeks back, we amused ourselves (and hopefully you too) with a bunch of hilarious photos of debauched rock stars with cute kids . Ever since, we've been mulling over the natural follow-up — photos of debauched rock stars with cute animals. Click through for pictures of suitably party-loving musicians enjoying tender moments with dogs, cats, tortoises, three-toed sloths, and one terrified rabbit. Elvis Presley "Why yes, Elvis, of course everyone [...]

If you aren't already, it's time to follow The Mountain Goats' John Darnielle on Tumblr — his blog is as witty and entertaining as one might expect, and he updates it fairly frequently. In particular, it was interesting to see him recently post a photo of a very young version of himself at a Nick Cave show. It turns out he's quite the Cave fan, and that seeing The Bad Seeds play on the tour in question was quite the formative experience on both Darnielle himself and on [...]

Waxahatchee è un nome difficile da scrivere per dove è la acca, per quante e ci sono e a pronunciarlo sembra che stai per alzare un'ascia e ammazzare (o a tentare di) Tex. Io con Tex ci ho provato da ragazzino ma dopo un po' mi faceva due maroni, sono passato a Dylan Dog e Nathan Never, quest'ultimo abbandonato quasi subito. Mah. scritta una premessa abbastanza idiota c'è da considerare il nuovo disco di Waxahatchee, all'anagrafe Katie Crutchfield, titolo Cerulean Salt. E' uno di quei lavori in cui non intravvedi un potenziale da spaccaclassifica o da popola [...]

Today we flash back on another of our favourite labels: SUB POP RECORDS . They're responsible for the careers of a diverse range of bands, from Nirvana to  Dum Dum Girls   to our very own  Husky . And they're celebrating 25 years in the business on July 13.  That means that they've been around since 1988. Before that founder Bruce Pavitt started a fanzine called  Subterranean Pop about American independent artists and their labels. He started releasing compilations [...]

R.E.M.'s major label debut, Green , was released on Election Day in 1988. It was a canny move from a political band, making their mark on the public consciousness on the very day the Reagan administration turned into the first Bush administration. The record also happened to be the band's entry into the big leagues, going from a small-town Southern band with a knack for jangle guitar and art-punk posturing into a world conquering behemoth that would become one of the most popular bands of the 902s. While the album itself is [...]

There've been many awesome Stooges-related things that have come out of the last week or so, not least the band's new album (which is actually quite good ) and their killer performance at New York's Le Poisson Rouge. But perhaps most awesome all is the photo that's been making the rounds of Iggy clutching two kids in junior versions of his trademark sequined jeans. They look terrified, he looks delighted, and the whole thing is many kinds of awesome. So, in a similar [...]

For their new style feature called As Worn By, the immaculately curated British boutique GoodHood collaborated with illustrator Clara Lacy to draw rock icons like Ian Curtis, Kurt Cobain, Henry Rollins, Axl Rose and Malcom ... read more �

Suede has managed to revive a bit of interest in themselves amongst the general public by returning with a decent record. Robbie Williams has managed to pique mine by being a blowhard. Recently, Robbie has taken to his blog to remind us that boy bands are ok. I'm going to say something nice about him now [...] The post Robbie Williams Uses Both Sides Of His Mouth appeared first on Your Music Is Awful.com .

Time for a little bit of aural time travel. Let's look back, reflect, and contemplate... what were we listening to one year ago ? Listen to the April 2012 One Year Ago Mix and find out. You can stream (and scrobble ) all the songs in this mix using the ex.fm player at the bottom of the page OR you can just download any or all of the tracks at your leisure and play them using a digital media player of your choice.

Few artists resonate so strongly with KEXP listeners and all Seattle music fans as Kurt Cobain . His band, Nirvana, wasn't the first to break out of the Northwest or did their groundbreaking breakthrough, Nevermind , sell the most among their contemporaries, but Cobain probably represented more of the local attitude of the early 902s than anyone else. Born in Aberdeen, an old milling town near Washington's coast, and shuffled between fragments of a broken family, misunderstood and disenchanted at school, Cobain found a home in the 802s NW punk scene and would eventually change not only Northwest [...]

Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , Video , R.I.P. Frank Micelotta, Getty It was 19 years ago today that Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain was found dead in his Seattle home from an apparent self-inflicted shotgun blast to the head (or was it murder ?). Modern rock radio is full of tributes to Cobain today. As is social media. One such tribute came from [...]

Kurt Cobain allegedly killed himself 19 years ago today, leaving behind just three studio albums clocking in at under two hours. While his personal woes may remain somewhat of a mystery, his legacy has grown exponentially over the years – despite being dead for a hair under two decades, his net worth is now around $100 million, thanks largely in part to the royalties of his back catalog. While the video below isn't necessarily new, it showcases Cobain's undeniably distinct and raw vocal talent – something that usually gets glossed over by hairstyles and fashion sense when [...]

Il 5 aprile 1994 Kurt Cobain moriva, lasciando sconvolti i fan. Ecco l'omaggio di Soundsblog al leader dei Nirvana Il 5 aprile rimane una data davvero infausta per i fan dei Nirvana e per chi seguiva con costanza e passione il percorso artistico e musicale di Kurt Cobain. Solo l'8 aprile -tre giorni dopo- il suo corpo viene trovato privo di vita da Gary Smith, un elettricista della Veca Electric. Dopo l'autopsia venne indicata la data della morte il 5 aprile precedente. La scomparsa del cantante è sempre stata avvolta dal mistero e dalle [...]

Geçtiğimiz hafta sosyal medyaya bomba gibi bir haber düştü. Sözüm ona Nirvana’nın efsane solisti Kurt Cobain diriltilip Türkiye’ye konsere getirildi! Haber şöyleydi: "1994 yılında vokalist Kurt Cobain’in intiharıyla dağılan grup geçtiğimiz yıl Kurt Cobain’in iyileşmesiyle tekrar birleşme kararı aldı ve ilk turnesinde Türkiye’ye de yer vermesiyle sosyal medyadaki Nirvana grubu fanlarının yüzünü güldürdü.
