Mumford & Sons Share New Single, “Believe”

So the news earlier last week was that the beloved banjo boys of Mumford & Sons were abandoning the banjo and taking the new music that they were working on to the shop and adding a little bit of edge, which means they were going electric. As blasphemous as it seemed to fans, they weren’t […]

Hozier Releases Video for “Someone New”

If Hozier could get any bigger, this song will do it. After the huge single, “Take Me to Church,” and an incredible performance at The Grammys, Hozier gives us a video for “Someone New.” This song is arguably more catchy than its predecessor, and maybe more lighthearted. The song discusses brief promiscuity as well as […]

A name drop for sure. […]

Since around August, we have steadily been dished out new songs by Bloodhound Gang. First was “Chew Toy,” and then in October, “American Bitches.” And now, this week, the band gave us “Dimes.” The song is classic Bloodhound Gang, with potty humor mixed with insults and hip-hop beats to drive the song inside your ears […]

Aside from all the annoying guacamole posts and media exaggerations that have been posted about him in the past two weeks, Jack White has come up with another, incredibly innovative manner of distributing his music to the consumers. Apparently, his ultra deluxe vinyl of Lazeretto wasn’t enough. This time it comes in the form of […]

REVIEW: Marilyn Manson – ‘The Pale Emperor’

Artist: Marilyn Manson Album: The Pale Emperor Genre: Goth Rock, Alternative, Metal Label: Hell, etc. “The past is over.” That line says it all. This is not your older brother’s Marilyn Manson. And if you spend about fifty-five minutes with The Pale Emperor–or even just five–you’ll know it. But let’s not be hasty with that […]
