Woe is Jill Sobule. Poor gal whines a bit in her latest tune, picking on record companies, out-of-style execs, plus her own indecisiveness about how to release her new music, and what angles she should be taking that will (we assume) get her back on another big soundtrack.
All the while she doesn’t revel in the […]

Because iTunes won’t allow Radiohead to sell their new record as a full album only (as opposed to being able to buy one song at a time), the band will not offer it up via iTunes at all.
Radiohead is one of the few remaining bands that still has the power to send me to the […]

First Paul, then John…now Ringo Starr’s solo wares are available for purchase from the iTunes Store.
Is George the last piece of the puzzle that needs to fall in place before the entire Beatles catalog makes its way to an iTunes Store near you? I hope so, but if it does I’m pretty sure it’s […]

Here’s one of the (many) things I don’t understand about Pitchfork. As you saw from Frazer’s post below, the wild wild internet experienced a bit of a false start this morning when an alleged leaked track from Radiohead’s new album surfaced on a random MySpace fan page. To everyone’s dismay, it was later revealed that […]

…ohhh that douchin’ feeling…
Okay, no you haven’t.
Our buds at Action-Squad have a funny piece about your favorite partner-of-a-mustache-stand and mine, Daryl Hall. It’s definitely worth a read, and perhaps even a douche-alert, but I can’t go for that nooo…

I know I’ve mentioned on this blog before that Eddie Vedder was perhaps singlehandedly responsible for me picking up a guitar. Note to guitar students: it’s very difficult to learn how to play Pearl Jam songs on the guitar by continually pausing their MTV Unplugged performance and trying to shape your fingers like Stone Gossard’s.
How […]

For those of us who spent the nineties honing in on and fine-tuning through trial and error what would eventually evolve into our current musical taste, there’s no arguing the importance of the role played by Billy Corgan and the Smashing Pumpkins. Remember the first time you heard the opening to “Today”? Remember going back […]

I know I’m not the only one who has enjoyed $1 records from Russian website AllofMP3.com, so I’m also probably not the only one who’s a bit saddened by the recording industry’s latest attempt at shutting down the site by eliminating its abilities to accept payments from customers, no matter how small those payment may […]

Boy oh boy do The Sounds know how to market. Anyone who has has either two sets of balls (eye and/or the testicle variety) has already peeked over to the right and seen that album cover of the two very attractive ladies seemingly oblivious to how attractive they are. […]
