Video: Radiohead: All I Need- Chicago 6/20/06

A new joint venture company between Downtown Records ( Eagles of Death Metal, Gnarls Barkley, Justice, Mos Def) and journalist/entrepreneur Peter Rojas has been created and a plan to save the music industry has been put in place. The new blog-label, dubbed Rcrd Lbl , plans to monetize music through advertising dollars rather than through traditional retail sales. In other words, the label will be giving away unrestricted mp3 downloads of all their artist's music directly through their website , and through advertisting revenue, the label will pay the artists between [...]

We're lagging a bit on doing a post about these badical dudes (and dudette) from Chicago who play in a band called The Ponys . If you live for wailing guitar solos, a reverb drench wall of rock, and balls-to-the-wall vocal lines then you'll love The Ponys. Check out the band's new record from Matador called Turn The Lights Out, and catch the band on the road with Spoon and Chin Up Chin Up . Here is a free download of the single from the new jam...

All it takes is about 30 seconds of listening to The Teenagers lyrics to realize that they are bonified weirdos.... but in good way. The parisian trio's lyrics are off the wall and their obsession with Starlett err.. Scarlett Johansson (see music video) is borderline, but the indie-pop-electro band sure make some fun and lovable tunes. The Teenagers are headed west for their first US tour in support of a handful of demos and singles you can listen to here . "Starlett Johansson" Music Video [...]

The Bat for Lashes debut Fur and Gold has been on repeat in the Badical Beats offices the last week, so I thought I'd do a little video round-up on this wonderful band from Brighton, UK. The band just finished up tours of the US, Canada, and France, and are already at work on their next record. If you're not familiar with Fur and Gold, head over to their space and show em' some love.

Vampire Weekend is all over the music blogsphere right now, so I thought I'd show them some love by featuring their new music video for "Mansard Roof". The white color rockers will be releasing their self-titled debut through XL Recordings in digital, CD, and vinyl on January 29th, 2008. P.S. Peep the new video player from MTV which includes the Artist, Song Name, and Label. I never thought I'd say this, but kudos MTV.

It seems the Rumors Laid Waste that the legendary post-hardcore rockers from Seattle were calling it quits turned out to be true.

One could describe the music of the brooklyn based duo, Ish , as intelligent indie rock. Their combination of choice instruments, interesting vocal melodies, and clever transitions make their music most premium. I don't know whether it's the use of the children's vocal sample or the unexpected blaring horns that make the hook to "What Is It?" so memorable, but each time this track ends, my only thought is.... I gotta hear that one again. Ish is in the midst of finishing [...]

In case you haven't heard, music is evolving in a world where Internet is king. While many music companies are fighting this natural evolution of music on the net, DeepRockDrive is embracing it. With the growing presence of the web in music promotion, radioplay and record sales are becoming a lost cause, and many artists have turned to their live performance to connect with their fans and bring home the bills. However, it can be financially difficult for artists to tour through every market, and for fans to afford paying for the rising ticket [...]
