STREAM: The Almost – “Ghost”

The Almost, the band lead by former Underoath drummer Aaron Gillespie, have released a new single on Youtube. The song, titled “Ghost”, is pretty rocking, and I’m enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would as I am not historically a fan of the band. There’s just something too catchy in it that […]

Mumford & Sons To Play Synths, Go Electronic?

Perhaps this is blowing an out of context quote out of proportion, but it seems as though Mumford & Sons have something new up their sleeves. After two albums of indie folk music, they have told NME that their next record may feature electric guitar and synthesizers. Rather than have you wonder the context, here’s […]

STREAM: This Town Needs Guns – “I’ll Take The Minute Snake”

In their own words, math rock band This Town Needs Guns are streaming a new song, “I’ll Take The Minute Snake” as a celebration for everyone surviving the non-apocalypse. The Sargent House band has a new album, 13.0.0.0.0, coming out on January 22. I look forward to it. In regards to line up changes and […]

Jake Shears (Scissor Sisters) Sings On New Queens Of The Stone Age Album

Some bands just know how to keep the spotlight. Between Trent Reznor and Nick Oliveri’s appearances and Dave Grohl‘s drumming on the upcoming Queens of the Stone Age record, we were already psyched for it. Add to that a false report on its release date and our anticipation couldn’t be higher. Or could it? You […]

STREAM: Diamond Youth – “Cannonball”

Earlier this year, Boston’s Topshelf Records signed Diamond Youth, and since then, I’ve been listening to them far too much for my health. That’s a good thing, though: they have another record, Orange, coming out on January 22. Today they released a stream of a song from the new album titled “Cannonball”. The song sounds […]

Jimmy Eat World Finish Mixing Album, Now Mastering

Jimmy Eat World constantly updates us through their Twitter account. Every step of the process, they’ve let us know where they’re at; and apparently today, November 30, they have finished mixing and are beginning to master the album. I’m sure in a week or two they’ll say they’re doing mastering, and maybe then they’ll finally […]

HOLY SH!T: Nick Oliveri Recording With Queens Of The Stone Age

Queens of the Stone Age fans everywhere are rejoicing. First, the band announced Dave Grohl was rejoining as full time drummer, then Trent Reznor said he was collaborating on a QotSA song. Now, former bassist/vocalist Nick Oliveri is officially rejoining the band. His role is most likely reduced, and perhaps not as a full time […]
