In rather unfortunate news, The Morning Benders have recently taken to Twitter and Facebook to announce that "this will be the last post/tweet from The Morning Benders." The news, while at first seemingly implying the demise of the band, was met with more welcome news. The band will not be breaking up, but instead changing their name to Pop ETC. On their former official website , band member Chris Chu explained that, "[w] hen we started this band in 2005 we had no expectations. From an early age [...]
The Morning Benders are no more! But before you start panicking that one of your favorite indie bands has broken up, rejoice in the fact that they're still together, just under a different name. The band has renamed themselves Pop Etc after learning that "bender" is a derogatory term for homosexuals in Europe. The band has also made a new mixtape available for download that may or may not include new material from the band's upcoming follow-up to 2010's Big Echo . Download the mixes and see what the band had to say about the [...]
Tweet vaso link I'm certain that you've heard of The Morning Benders. We were big fans of their last album, 20102s Big Echo. As it turns out, the band has ditched their previous moniker in favor of the all-caps POP ETC. On its face, it may seem like a move that doesn't make any sense, but when you read the band's reasoning, it's clear that the change was necessary. (You can - and should - read the band's explanation [...]
THIS is huge news. The Morning Benders made a formal announcement via their website that they will be changing their name to POP ETC and to celebrate they released a mixtape full of new music greatness. The band recently discovered in some parts of Europe the word 'bender' is a derogatory term for a homosexual and they could not go on any longer with a name that is disrespectful to the gay community. The name had also become a distraction in the areas of the world where it holds the negative connotation and they wanted to keep things about the [...]
I guess the lesson here is to vet your band name through as many filters as possible. The Morning Benders — the pop quartet started in Berkeley five-plus years ago by SoCal native Christopher Chu — have changed their name to POP ETC . "We simply cannot go on using a name that is demeaning to the gay community," Chu said in a statement released by the band, explaining that the band had no idea when they chose their name that in the U.K. "bender" is a derogatory term for a homosexual. And in the [...]
Tribute albums can be tricky. After all, the source material is often considered sacred by many fans - and it can be quite difficult to compile a collection of songs by different artists that will satisfy even hard core fans of the original artist. And despite these challenges, Stereogum previously managed to curate the best Radiohead tribute album (perhaps the hardest band to successfully cover) I've heard to date with their OK X tribute that featured Vampire Weekend, My Brightest Diamond, and John Vanderslice (amongst others). They even followed it up with excellent tribute albums for R.E.M. and [...]
Tweet It's been ten years since The Strokes released the raw, genre-defining album "Is This It", which has since been named the Best Album of the Decade by NME, among other titles and accolades. Holy shit! Ten years? It still sounds hip today, which cannot be said for a lot of other popular releases from 2001. Stereogum brings us this compilation of covers in tribute to the album, each track covered once by an artist from a different perspective. They've released similar [...]
Stereogum nous fait le plaisir de nous offrir un hommage au premier album des Strokes , Is This It sortit en 2001 et nommé "meilleur album de la décénnie" par NME.

YOU MAD? I don’t know when it officially started happening but remixes of Indie songs have become a “thing” that people “do” and they are all up on the internet. As we have addressed in the past, RAC and Star Slinger are DJs that always shine in their remixes of Indie tunes. The other day I was looking through some playlists I’ve made in the past few months and noticed an abundance of great remixes done by some other DJs that I figured I could share. Within the mini collection of [...]
Something is wrong with me. I noticed that lately I’ve been listening to only male vocalists or all male bands, hence the GIF of obscure boy bands (shouts to baucesauce for the technology lesson). I apologize if anyone has been aching for a new female vocalist or if that’s not your thing, a simple picture of an attractive girl on the site. Hopefully I can get over this phase soon but for now I’ll give you a quick roundup of some of the men I’ve been listening to in the past few weeks. Bon Iver [...]

Listen: POP ETC – POP ETC (Full Album Stream)
You've seen and heard and read us talking about the new album from the newly-minted POP ETC , a far-cry from their grandiose indie-pop as The Morning Benders . Eleven glossy, electronic pop jams, laced with Chris Chu's silky-smooth vocals, sometimes fed through auto-tune but not to the excess, it's well-done and well-placed. The band will undoubtedly lose fans with the new sound, but it'll also open them up to an entirely new fanbase, so it'll be interesting to see fans reactions to it. You might've [...]
