Photos: I Can Haz Party 2 at Hope Lounge




With the likes of Bad Decision, Kids With Snakes and DJ Holla on the decks, plus some other party's cupcakes, the porch and grills being open and our new lens, we'd have to say it was a quite good night.  We're still figuring out some of the in's and out's of the new …

mp-FREE: new The Streets - "The Escapist"




Six years into his career, four albums completed (as of the dropping of September's Everything Is Borrowed LP), Mike Skinner is still not done chronicling the life and times of a British citizen.  The loves and losses, the heartache and wonder, the drugs and sobering …

Tours: The Hives do South America + US dates with Eagles of Death Metal




The world shall go on!  The saviors of our culture are coming back!  The Hives, those bastions of moral and social order (and musical enlightenment), are coming back to the Western hemisphere, and, more importantly, to our hearts.  They may or may not write the most …

mp-FREE: Buffetlibre presents Rewinded mixtape




Those Spanish blog-house provocateurs in Buffetlibre never ever stop.  Every week is a new surprise and every new project is so good, we're still trying to figure out why they even bother wondering what people will think of their material.  We haven't seen one …

Tours: Animal Collective in Europe this fall



(photo by Adriano Fegundes)



Avey, Panda and the gang will be spending about two weeks stamping their passports through Poland, Austria, Slovenia, Greece, Israel, Turkey and the Czech Republic.  What?  Seriously.  Their playing All Points West on August 9 in Jersey, in …

News: Tricky to release Knowle West Boy, his first album in 5 years




We can't lie.  We love love love us some Maxinquaye.  Still.  And though Tricky, the man born Adrian Thaws may have released that record a staggering 13 years ago, he's since become a legend among musicians for his take on the world of sexuality, paranoia and the …

mp-FREE: Oldschoolreunion make a squelchy masterpiece




When you find yourself listening to three straight tracks of beat-ific, pitch-bending vibes that are equal parts Ed Banger and Commodore 64, you're listening to Oldschoolreunion, a duo of UK hardcore electro-trippers whose new EP, High Five, is killing us.  It's a …

Tours: Ryan Adams takes The Cardinals on the road + opening for Oasis




The new website design for Ryan Adams is totally lame.  There's no puzzles, rapping or blog posts about ex-girlfriends and (to be honest) we don't know what to do.  We mean, sure, there's links to Tibetan resources and Humane societies and such, but, you know, that's …

mp-FREE: Plagiarists - "Wooden Horses"



(photo by Seth Page)



Okay, but seriously.  Stop making so much music that we can't stop loving.  Please!  We seriously can't keep up with how good these guys called Plagiarists seem to be getting.  Poppy in the right places, laced with so many hooks you lose count, …

Live: Max Richter and friends do Wordless Music Series tomorrow night




We will be here tomorrow night, so you may want to come by.  Just saying, is all.  We got bat-shit crazy last year when we found out that Max Richter was making his stateside debut, so now is just another opportunity.



Wordless Music Series presents
Max Richter,

mp-FREE: Kid Sister - "Pro Nails (Soda & Suds remix)"




Leave it to a crew of three Belgians to want nothing more than to remix Kid Sister.  During this summer of endless remixes, no less.  But that's just what Soda & Suds wanted to do, and far be it for us to tell them otherwise.  Plus, the track is a guaranteed banger …

mp-FREE: new Kings Of Leon - "Crawl"




The first track taken from the Southern-fried boys' upcoming release, September 23's Only By The Night, "Crawl" finds the band searching for bigger rock hooks than ever before, complete with all sorts of distortion and a never-quitting drum line.  We have good …

Cinema: Snoop Dogg does Bollywood




"I'm coming to take over Bollywood," Snoop Dogg promised during the
video shoot. "I've never been able to come over there and do shows for
you all, but now I'm going to come and do shows," he said in a clip
that the video's promoters put on YouTube. "This is just …

Emerging: Neon Hitch




Here's a snappy, ringtone-ready track that we're sure will sit well with the Katy Perry lovers and Timbaland rockers.  Neon Hitch (alarm! actual given name!) is currently living with Amy Winehouse, compares herself to early Nelly Furtado and spent her youth as a …

News: You Say Party! We Say Die! do remix record




We were gushy gushy about this Toronto's band's video for "Monster" last year, and now that we've caught wind of them returning to retreat and remix the excellent Lose All Time, we're back at that same point.  Appropriately entitled Remik's Cube, You Say Party! We …

mp-FREE: Katy Perry - "I Kissed A Girl (Ol' Head Inc remix)"




Once again making us die because we're not in Philly this summer, the dudes from Ol' Head Records made this remix that we can't stop listening to on repeat in our headphones.  It's retarded how good this is.  We don't think Katy Perry will outlast this whole summer …

Leave it to a crew of three Belgians to want nothing more than to remix Kid Sister.  During this summer of endless remixes, no less.  But that's just what Soda & Suds wanted to do, and far be it for us to tell them otherwise.  Plus, the track is a guaranteed banger …

Covers are murder #9




That's right.  It's back.  "Covers Are Murder", one of our most beloved pieces to write, makes its return.  And we have such a good one, it's almost unreasonable.  Let's take one of the most popular girl anthems in the history of recorded music (not to far behind …

Live: Full line-up announced for ATP's "Release The Bats" Halloween show




Totally worth checking out this Halloween if you're in London (or thereabouts), as the first act to play the night will be Lightning Bolt.  And as it turns out, the promoters of the event are letting the manic duo play in their usual positioning that they do at every …
