Póster de 'Monsters University'. Dos terceras partes de Swedish House Mafia , Sebastian Ingrosso y Axwell , unieron sus fuerzas para hacer un track nuevo llamado "ROAR". Esta canción formará parte de la nueva película de Disney donde podremos ver a nuestros monstruos favoritos, Sulley y Wazowski , en la universidad, Monsters University . Esta inclusión en el soundtrack continua lo que Skrillex hizo en Wreck-it Ralph y reafirma que el EDM ha llegado para conquistarlo todo. Por ahora, [...]

Joe Sixsmith was adrift in space. Light years beneath him gleamed the tiny orb he was supposed to make contact with, but he knew it was an impossible dream. His muscles had melted, his lungs were starved of oxygen, and the only part of his mind not paralysed by terror was the bit that dealt with ’fonlies. ’fonly I’d done this … ’fonly I’d done that … ‘No use messing with ’fonlies,’ Aunt Mirabelle used to say. ‘’fonlies don’t get your homework done, Joseph. You miss your football [...]
Yeaaaaa thanks to Back2Pluto I caught wind of Japan producer Taquwami's new single. It's a long one, filled with awesomeness. Thanks to Soma's radio show I know a thing or two abt dude. Check his soundcloud / twitter for more.

With the holidays fast approaching and what would have been Jimi Hendrix's 70th birthday passing this week, have a look at some elusive footage from the Christmas on Earth Continued concert on Dec. 22, 1967 featuring Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Traffic and a number of underground British bands. Classic rock fans have been hoping to unearth the rest of this all night event for years, but there's been no sign of the rest of Jimi's set or any of the Pink Floyd performance (Syd's last major [...]

If you tend to like bands like The Killers or The National , but want a slightly tweaked sound, then A Lion Named Roar is what you'll be looking for. The Louisville, KY band makes some good alt/pop music and today released their new project, Foreign Land EP. The album features six tracks of tightly woven jams that are a nice listen for the coming Winter months. Fresh? Tweet

I cannot stress this enough: I LOVE getting cool vinyl in the mail. The only thing better is when it's completely unexpected, as took place with a recent package from Common Wall Media . The label just released Bogan Via's new EP, Wait Up , on October 29. Common Wall also sent along Put Your Sunshine Away , a forthcoming release by Gospel Claws out November 20. These are both on CD, but here's the bonus: I also received a 73 single from each band on colored wax! [...]

WQHS recently had the opportunity to interview Sean Bonnette of Andrew Jackson Jihad. Check out the conversation after the jump, and don't miss their show on Novermber 1st at Union Transfer! HH: Okay, so first of all, tell me about Knife Man . I’m sure I could look on the Wikipedia page and see where it was recorded and the process and all that stuff, but I want to hear it from you. SB: Okay, well, about Knife Man , what can I say? I wrote Knife [...]

Well hello there to you tasty new jam from Tempe, AZ based Gospel Claws . This song that's making my evening is called "I Want it All" and is a super catchy rock pop style number. The band have a 73 featuring this number that just came out recently and features a flip side from city mates ROAR . You should also stay tuned to November 13th for a full length from the band entitled Put Your Sunshine Away coming your way from Common Wall Media . Download: Gospel Claws - I Want It All [...]
Mount Eerie's Phil Elverum drops another track from what's going to be his second full-length album this year, Ocean Roar . It's a slow, serene ballad featuring the kind of atmospheric synths that were so prevalent on this albums predecessor, Clear Moon . Some of Phil's lyrics leave me scratching my head a bit, too, but in a good way. The reference to leaving the studio at night toward the beginning of the track was a bit surprising. For Phil to be so blatantly self-referential and mention a convenience of modern living-as [...]

Grilled slightly on the side of Billboard Top 100, with a Marmite (“love it, or hate it”) zesty vocal, the backing of The R.O.A.R.’s instrumental on ‘Touch Down’ soon begins to break on through leaving its competitors trying to figure out why ultimately their own individual work rate sucks.. and why if their competitors (as well as themselves) were given free rein to fire employees at will.. there wouldn’t just be total chaos on a weekly basis, but the mindset of “abuse of power” and true corporate, toolbox anarchy would instantly be born. THE R.O.A.R. [...]

As the intake of extra high digital & analogue releases just keeps on flowing through at AN headquarters on a daily basis, we reach the conclusion that being inundated with newer and semi old tunes will never be an old fashioned or frustrating prerequisite. With the endless flow of global talent that always never fails to amaze, its productions and mindsets like these that challenge the soul always, and relinquish the heart continually. Turning the impossible into the possible, is the man that they call Steve Narvaez . Aka The R.O.A.R. he’s continues [...]

My feelings about the end of March in the Denver area are conflicted: I don’t quite know how I’m going to be standing at the end of it and there’s a lot of “THIS IS GOING TO BE SO AWESOME” happening. I suppose spring has officially arrived in the music scene, even though we’ve still got a few months of snow in these parts. 23 March / Andrew Jackson Jihad / Marquis Theater / [ tickets ] Andrew Jackson Jihad were a huge part [...]

Género: Indie pop. Owen Evans, aka Roar , nos enseña su chino tatuaje. Chinese Tattoo es primero de los cortes de su reciente EP I'm Not Here to Make Friends puesto en circulación el pasado 28 de febrero. Con su EP nos lo dice claro, "No estoy aquí para hacer amigos", pero a tenor de lo que desprende Chinese Tattoo parece que sí. Refrescante sonido, moderno y clásico a la vez, discurre a trompicones, y cuando empiezas a acomodarte con el sonido, se [...]
![FIRST AID KIT’S THE LION’S ROAR [7.3]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4077558_lg.jpg)
The Lion's Roar - First Aid Kit // Buy The Soderberg sisters' ability to wonderfully capture/recreate the sound of Americana may almost seem unfair given their Swedish origins, but First Aid Kit’s (@firstaidkitband) The Lion’s Roar is too sweet to stay bitter for long. Johanna and Klara’s voices blend together in a harmony only possible from people of similar genetic background, and this is the focus of the duo’s second full-length album. The songs are all simple, traditional folksy sing-a-longs that serve to showcase their [...]

I have been pretty excited about this tour since it was announced. Andrew Jackson Jihad ! Laura Stevenson and the Cans ! Denver ! And last but not least, ROAR ! (By which this post is brought to you today.) This track makes me long for summer even more than the usual February blues. It's got that Brian Wilson magical quality that makes pop music great. The jangling keyboards and fuzzy guitar give it a unique twist. The arrangement of it all makes for [...]

Mashup Monday - We're back again with some of the freshest mashes to start your week off right. These are the mashes that are worth hearing, so stop your searching and instead settle down at your computer... turn up your speakers... and get ready for that sweet nectar that only EARMILK can give ya. Let's GO. Oh and speaking of mashups, did anyone catch the mashup that was aired during the Super Bowl? Looks like mashups are starting to go mainstream, and Budweiser possibly may be leading the charge. Flo Rida with The Cult? Gotta say [...]

Este artista del Mashup de nombre THE ROAR hace algo mas que mezclar dos canciones diferentes en 1, el usa su propia voz y añade un toque personal e inusual, y creanme lo hace bastante bien!. Al formar la mitad de "The Fire and the reason" el nombre a la banda electro de la cual es miembro, es facil sentir sus influencias las cuales en este tipo de menesteres funcionan como anillo al dedo. Aqui la version cantada de "I love you so" de CASSIUS (aunque algunos crean que es de JAY Z con KANYE) con algunas vocales de THE [...]

Local indie band ROAR just released a new music video that manages to be funny, heartwarming, and highly entertaining at the same time. It also does a damn good job of selling the band as a local act that you should pay attention to. "I Can't Handle Change" is the title track for the band's EP, that you can download right over here . After you watch this video, you should be primed and ready to come see the band open up for Andrew Jackson Jihad at Crescent Ballroom on December 17th. The [...]
