We cannot for the life of us recall who it was that tipped us off in a past conversation about the band Money . It was some time last year. We were managing a gig involving the band Binary and discussing prospects for 2012, (perhaps it was with their manager?), so the tip was kindly passed to us and once we got a few spare minutes when back at home we set about searching the band out. We've written plenty about the issue of SEO and terribly unhelpful band names at length, ( particularly on this post [...]

If you are a fan of 90's Brit-rock Gods, The Stone Roses, today was a big day for you (to say the least).
Finalmente lo revelaron. Una de las bandas que hizo lo posible para que el britpop que conocemos, como lo conocemos, naciera, anunció que volverán a juntarse . Sí, estoy hablando de los mismísimos The Stone Roses quienes volverán a tocar con la formación original.

Catch it below now (via Some Kind of Awesome ) and put on those dancing shoes. That is, if they match your khaki slacks and autumn skirts. [...]

The wait is over for those of you yet to hear the new Justice album and after they performed a DJ set this past weekend at the Creators Project, only to have it shut down by Police, I think this will be welcomed by open armed fans the world over. Although we've had several previews of what this may sound like I think, as a package, the album is a well rounded progression for the duo, but hey, you may disagree. Audio, Video, Disco isn't set to drop until October the 25th so preview the album [...]

Right, now I will grant you that this was not a story that really warranted almost 1200 words. However, it came time for me to write CMU's Beef Of The Week column and this was the pop scuffle that most made me laugh this week. My second choice was Rihanna v an Irish farmer . But other than obsessing over his comment that she and her team should "acquaint themselves with a greater God", I couldn't see much scope for stringing it out for longer than I had in the original story. Bloc Party not knowing if they'd [...]

Lady Gaga for NME (click to enlarge) Lady Gaga has been called every name in the book: weird, crazy, kooky, a freak, and many other colorful terms. But one name she won't stand for being called is "manufactured." In the latest issue of NME magazine, which Gaga covers wearing a see-through catsuit with zippers to hide her naughty bits, Gaga strikes back at the critics who call her the "M" word by dropping the "F" word - many, many times. "If you want me to be a manufactured act, [...]
