That’s right: we STILL think that those overhyped Columbian alums with that really cute lead singer Ezra are the shiz. Are we alone in our principles? Maybe so, but that’s okay. While the rest of the world moves on, we (proudly) continue not giving a fuck about an Oxford comma and wanting to get out [...]

Not to brag or anything, but that Santogold name-game discovery I made recently (and wrote about) came at a pretty funny/coincidental time…check out this Stereogum article.
Headline: “Santogold Sued by Santo Gold.”
Oh Santi White…you can’t say I didn’t warn you.
We “Heart” Zooey (and M. Ward)

Zooey Deschanel has seemed to have been unanimously (among the media) declared the winner of the Zooey vs. Scarlett CD smackdown, and she TOTES deserves it. ZooDesch was very smart in her decisions related to her musical crossover, first of all enlisting indie/freakfolk dude who doesn’t have a first name, M. Ward, to form the [...]
Broadway’s Slow Painful Death: An Update

Regis and Kelly’s Taylor Hicks-Grease live performance/fiasco this morning was actually quite timely, considering my recent rant about “the next (OMG) Elle Woods.” But believe me, that was genuine shock I experienced when Rege (or was it Kelly?) announced the final musical event of Broadway Week would be starring our man Soul Patrol.

UGH UGH UGH EW EW UGH EW UGH. That phrase…

But moving on, the oldy/goody I would like to highlight today is from March- not [...]

June 25: Au Revoir Simone will be DJ-ing at a fundraiser for the New York Civil Liberties Union. This fundraiser will “help the NYCLU continue to defend and promote the fundamental principles embodied in the Bill of Rights, the U.S. Constitution…” blah blah blah.
YAY for charities though! If any of us were lucky enough to live in [...]

We are soooo ready for that upcoming/forthcoming/in-the-works (translation: not coming out anytime soon) Strokes album!
It was nice (?) hearing them on Gossip Girl, and that Converse mashup was…interesting…but new material would be even nicer, Julian Casablancas & Gang.
Well anyhoo, in appreciation of what they’ve already done, check the music player for “Last Nite.”
