The Cardigans singer Nina Persson has announced that she will be releasing a new album this coming February with her side project band A Camp.If you haven’t heard of them before, A Camp is a collaboration between the Scandanavian singer and Niclas Frisk of the band Atomic Swing. They came together because they had in [...]
While we’re here and on the topic of J Mascis, I would like to let you all know how much Guitar Hero actually enrages me. Is nothing sacred any more? So many reputable bands and artists have succumbed to the game, handing over their tracks (and their dignity) for a cash prize. Which I’m sure [...]
It cannot be contested that J Mascis is a legend. He’s a very proactive guy too. In 2005 he put together and released the album J + Friends Sing + Chant For Amma which was a collection of tracks inspired by Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi (otherwise known as Amma) - A humanitarian with a healing [...]
There has been a barrage of oddly confusing news surrounding Prince over the last week. To offer a little clarity, and brevity, on the situation I will summarize in short sentences what everyone seems to be clamoring about (I fell asleep last night reading the Pitchfork article on this whole ordeal, so if you want [...]
James Murphy, frontman of LCD Soundsystem is a secretive soul, so it seems. In an interview with the NME he squashed rumours that the group were nearing the end, by revealing that he has already written eight tracks for the new album.

While I will still hold doubt about the album’s existence until the very day I see that awful bicycle-and-basket cover art in Best Buy, I will refrain from joining the masses of snickering critics-in-waiting and give fans [...]
Premiere has released a list of what they are calling the 20 Punkest Films of All Time. Since this site is based on lists, I thought this was particularly appropriate. It’s not really an F10 list, but, for once, it’s not a bad list from Premiere, who has had some rather questionable lists in the [...]
Ah yes, the election is here, and stories like this will be gone when you wake tomorrow, maybe.
What remains of The Ramones, and their benefactors, and family, have been publicly squabbling over the political bent of the bands legacy, in regards to the current election. Linda “Ramone” wife of the late Johnny Ramone, is palling [...]
So, did you miss Sonic Youth’s July 4th show at Battery Park like I did? Are you still whimpering into your cornflakes each morning after hearing about how utterly spectacular, awesome, intense, brilliant, blah it was?
Well never fear, WFMU is here and are streaming the complete set for your listening pleasure from their site. WMFU [...]
