Native Korean Rock & the Fishnets, the second show of the nite.
What one BV commenter said:
One of those moments in your life you will never forget! The songs couldn’t have been more beautiful and sincere. The MySpace demos are really the most basic rough draft of what was heard…

Since we’re all celebrating Independence Day today, it’s time we took a moment to remember the men, women…and animals in Iraq. Bust out your crayons and markers kids, Williamsburg illustrator Nick Manske recently published his Animals of Iraq coloring book. The book juxtaposes the innocence of a children’s coloring book, destructive scenes of [...]

When I first heard Aussie/LA/Londoner Sam Sparro a month ago, I immediately thought he was of black descent considering his booming soulful voice. I was wrong, this white boy can sing! Already a huge music chart climber in the UK, Sparro isn’t just a singer but a musician that writes, performs, produces and [...]

Oh brother. Justin will probably get one of these so it can go along with his U2 Ipod, he loves Joy Division (he has a framed photo of Ian Curtis next to his bed). New Order was always the better band anyways. To me Joy Division is as overrated as Radiohead. [...]

Uh, yeah. Jacksonville, FL’s Black Kids blew up the blogosphere last Fall but have since unfortunately suffered the backlash of gaining popularity so quickly then deciding to sign with a major label. You can’t really fault the kids for trying to get paid. What are they gonna do, sit around their [...]

Mates of State (or who I like to call, “Matt and Kim’s parents” or what every hipster aspires to be when they grow older), that festive, yupster husband and wife duo are out with their forthcoming release Re-Arrange Us on Barsuk Records May 20th. I totally dig the look and feel of their [...]

That’s Big Boi there on the left. This Outkast photo was just too delicious and juicy for me not to put up. I can’t stop staring at it. Anyways, Big Boi (aka “Daddy Fat Sacks”, “General Patton”, “Sir Lucious L. Leftfoot”, “Billy Ocean”, “Hot Tub Tony” and “Francis the Savannah Chitlin’ Pimp”) [...]

Tilly and the Wall, those crazy tap dancing kids who sing about making out and getting f*cked up are back (though they’re not that young anymore). The Omaha, Nebraskans are set to release their third full-length O June 17th on Team Love records.
I still think “Rainbows in the Dark” is a banger. [...]

[MP3]: Chromatics “I’m On Fire” (Springsteen Cover)
[MP3]: The Cribs “I’m A Realist” (Postal Service Remix)
I’ve been obsessing over my latest web discovery, the vintage photo site Square America. Its worth wasting a couple days of your job hours, I still haven’t been able to go through it all. The curator describes it [...]

Ladytron seem to be reaching darker and darker territory as they following up the Witching Hour after 3 years. The new one is out on June 3rd, titled Velocifero or “bringer of speed”. Its produced by the band and surprisingly also with Vicarious Bliss (Ed Banger Records) plus Alessandro Cortini (Nine Inch Nails). [...]

[MP3]: Low “Sunflower”
[MP3]: Phosphorescent “Cocaine Lights”
[MP3]: Rare Bird “Passing Through”
Guilt can be a Bitch. I understand it can make people act in strange and different ways. I forgive them. Sure they can call me an ‘asshole’ and be mad at me. Maybe it was [...]

If you’re still trying to recovering like us from last night’s Friction fun, wake up!!! It’s almost time for the weekend to start we guess. On April 15th, HEARTSREVOLUTION is releasing their hit track with remixes by Brodinski, Lauren Flax, CFCF, Lazaro Casanova and Dan Oh out on the iheartcomix label. Here’s [...]

The first thing I did after listening to a mastered copy of Crystal Castles new self-titled album was delete all of their bootleg and demo recordings off my computer. Don’t worry, I’m still a big fan of their work, that’s just how complete their new sixteen song album is. 1 | 2 [...]
