The folks over at Puddlegum have brought up the idea of a complementation between Radiohead’s OK Computer and the band’s recently released In Rainbows, claiming the two albums work together as binary components.
I’m always a bit skeptical about such theories without proof of origin, but nonetheless, it’s cool (in that music blog kind of way) […]

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 […]

I knew the new, all-DRM-free Amazon MP3 store would influence me directly at some point. Apple has decided to lower the price of its DRM-free tracks, which up until now cost $1.29, to match their price of their protected tracks at $0.99.
No official word on the reason for the price drop, but one can only […]

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.

Well, I didn’t see this live, after swearing off late night television once the Cubs left the West Coast for good this season, but it is worth watching none the less. Michael Jackson, Rod Stewart, Prince, Rick James and Stevie Wonder straight rocking on Jimmy Kimmel. Gotta say I love this, but I […]

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…

George Harrison was the final Beatle to have his solo work added to iTunes, which happened today. Still waiting on actual Beatles music…

Ever wonder where that awesome growl in Ratatat’s “Wildcat” (track 4 from latest record, Classics) came from? I have, so I listened to this “Weekend America” interview with the band and found out that not only did they actually record the sound using a real wildcat, but apparently the song is also a popular tune […]

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 […]

I may be the only person under the age of a billion who finds the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductions remotely interesting, but for some reason I do. The show on VH1 generally has some decent performances (although, more so when they were going through their Zeppelin/Neil Young/Janis Joplin all in the same […]
