Yes, it’s true. I will admit that I still don’t fully get Grizzly Bear. True, I have not listened to their records enough, but that covers record kinda sent me farther down the wrong path. Also, an EP? I just can’t wrap my head around their lo-fi, form-free business. However, any […]

I remember Nine Inch Nails doing something like this about a year ago, and it was really cool. Radiohead is offering four separate instrument tracks, or “stems” (bass, drum, guitar, string, voice), along with their “Nude” single for sale via iTunes for about $6. The challenge? Remix the tracks and upload them for consideration, judgment […]

The Hype Machine has done a nice little thing by compiling a Music Blog Zeitgeist of 2007, listing the best 50 songs, best 50 albums, and best 50 bands based on content from the music blogs in their index. No major surprises since we’ve seen these bands and songs covered by every music blog, but […]

There is a band called Public Relations Exercise, from the UK.
Their myspace page features music that would likely fit right into one of Howard’s workout playlists.
They describe their sound as the future of metal rock. I can’t yet agree to that, but I dig their name. Can’t wait for Revenge of the Media […]

A free podcast of tracks from two of Radiohead’s webcasts (Thumbs_Down from November and Scotch Mist from just a week ago) is available via iTunes. Click here to go directly to the subscription page.

The AP reports today that 62 percent of Radiohead fans did not pay for the download of In Rainbows, and the average the other 38 percent voluntarily paid was $6
RTP is shocked an appalled by the senseless act and we are doing everything in our power to give a shit. /sarcastic remark
Honestly, what […]

Trust me. It feels good. And everyone else is doing it. Plus, your first time is free so they can really get you hooked.
Previously having nothing officially released, Daytrotter.com recorded a live session of which four Vampire Weekend songs are free for download. Who knows how their songs will sound when the […]

According to an article on MTV.com, perhaps the most well respected music news outlet in all the universe, some Radiohead fans “feel duped by In Rainbows‘ poor sound quality” and “possible ulterior motives.” My guess is that the people complaining are the same people who chose to pay nothing for the downloads.
For the record, the […]

Just a friendly reminder to make your way to Radiohead’s site to pick up the new record, In Rainbows. Someone’s not going to get much work done today…

I’m too excited to give you any more details than those contained in the title of this post, but let’s be honest, that’s really all you need to know, right?
Alright fine, the details are:
1) The band is releasing the record themselves (as opposed to via their label).
2) You get to choose how much you […]
