Robyn Hitchcock "Love From London" Out This Spring
I have never heard a bad song by Hitchcock and on the contrary have hummed along for some time now. Robin has never really left the scene but hey now, new material makes me very happy.

What the heck with this latest buzz that Ian Watkins got busted for some heavy duty sex crimes. The front man is seems to have got himself in a heap of trouble. I am a firm believer in ‘innocent til proven’
Considering these songs were recorded along the same time as “Waiting For Sirens Call”, I’m not overly optimistic. They say you cant go home again-but you can drive by.
I would say this is a good time to go out and hit your local clubs but that may be tough since Christmas is sitting on a Tuesday this week- the scene is dead, buried in gift wrap and tinsel.
I have never been more disgusted with an audience in my life. I wish we hadn’t played. We, lamb of god, asked for sixty seconds of silence during our 1st set break to honor the dead children & teachers in CT.
It always saddens me just a bit to see those so young with such turmoil. At their age the world is on a string, whatever has transpired in their lives to cause them to lose this fact is a robbery of innocence too painful to endure. We forget how young these guys are.
I’ve written it here before anyone who ever heard him say ‘knowwhatImean?’ as one word…it clings to your heart as one of the most adorable sounds in the world.
There are no found details of what exactly caused this ruckus, but I would love to know what establishment would have glass tables and allow Manson in to begin with. High five to the person who felt compelled to whip a table at the rocker, that must have been a damn sassy altercation.
Hey its Mumford and Son, theres a big surprise. Who would have ever thought that a band as folksy and plinky as they would crack the charts in such a big way? Proof that mankind is starved for something new
Wow! The charts this week are as stale as a fruitcake but then again so is popular opinion. Did you happen to catch Michael Buble when he was on Saturday Night Live doing Christmas Duets? Could well be one of the most hilarious bits of all last season. Buble is the new Harry Connick Jr- pure Christmas material, plain and simple.
The offer you now their free Winter Sampler filled with alt bands the teens will love. Bands such as Never Shout Never and Chelsea Grin offer two completely different genre’s but, like PETA it serves diversity so its perfectly suited.
Since that whole move to France thing he’s been odder than usual and the nonstop Disney Pirate films- well hell, it was just a matter of time that he would take this addiction and pair it up with music.
This whole ‘play an album’ concept is one of the most lazy ass things I have ever heard. The trend is mounting too. Rather than throw down a nice hodge podge for your work just put the bitch on auto piliot and sail through.
The gold press of 1963’s “Please Please Me” was estimated at about 18,000 euro but it missed its mark and was pulled from auction at 12,000 (appx $18,000). The records owner Chris Collins calls the disc a ‘burden’ that has been in his sock drawer.
It is rare and wonderful when a singer has proper clean vocals in a hardcore band. Often the pitch is just too high bordering on the same tone you get when you kick a guy in the nads. Not the case with Mabbit who actually has a beautiful singing voice
I can’t imagine a summer without Warped Tour or Projekt Mayhem. I can’t fathom the thought of no Scream it Like You Mean It or Take Action, let alone the infamous Camp Bisco or Wakarusa.
Anyone who knows depression and the aftermath of such knows that any ounce of assistance means hope. To be acknowledged that you’re ‘not alone’ can often mean the difference of not giving up.
that freak Cee Lo. For the love of Jesus can someone just shut that guy up? That’s what I want for Christmas, one damn week without that hobbit on my screen
As I searched out the photo for this weeks chart I was disappointed to see Gabrielle Aplin dolled up like a mini Del Rey. I suppose this little songstress who just recently burst on the scene will be allowed her own look. Shes adorable and has a heck of a set of pipes.
Ollie Murs is hanging tight to that top spot and Andre Rieu is holding up the rear. Inbetween we have the same old stuff and plenty of it. I do love that Neil Diamond is hanging out here and looky there’s Rod Stewart as well. The potential end of the world has no place here- the UK
That being said, Who the hell did the picking and choosing this year? I won’t list the entire list but just a few categories to help you utter “WTF?” repeatedly as you read.
Driver Friendly just cheapened themselves so much that there is no turning back unless someone scrubs my brain with bleach and I forget I ever heard it. The worse part is how great it could have been if it weren’t written in the back of a Prius on the way to the studio (or basement)
The rest of the dudes just wanna chill. Maybe Tom is just an ass to tour with. I can see that in him… like seriously cork it and have a beer.
Filmed in Rida’s home town of Miami the sites are obstructed so it basically could have filmed anywhere. The long boarding kids are fun enough and the roller blade girls all have nice boobs. Flo? He is on roller skates
This song is from their Tooth and Nail Records release of April 2012 LP ‘Secrets Don’t Make Friends’, releasing a new video of a semi ballad on an album that is nearly a year old is a very questionable career move. There is a great sing along of BFF’s in the basement at the end
I find this stance to be inspirational if not downright finger pointing to the lesser performers who cancel a show for a hangnail. Rock on Glen, you’re the man.
It cheapens the legacy, in my eyes. It really is nothing more than a money making tour scheme. I cant quite understand how legends such as May can even allow such a thing. After working so hard for so long, what’s the point?
There was the revelation that the 50’s were where I wanted to be. Before the ‘1-2-3-4’ of the scene. Before all the death, foam, blood and vomit. I wanted to live in black and white.
If Woe is Me is one of the first to be announced I can’t imagine how big this years show is going to be. With the announcement of allegiance to Fuse TV I won’t lie- I’m nervous. Granted as far as music TV goes Fuse is tops, if only because they actually show music.
He simply does not give up. A passionate vegetarian who never shuts up and has the stature and protocol to touch some pretty impressive governmental levels
By law a petition submitted to US Authorities shall have response within thirty days. But this is rock and roll and 105 days later Michael Posner throws us this bone, This guys salary is your tax dollar and he needs an assistant if it takes that long to issue this weak of a response.
I feel the end of the world is upon us. This is the second week where I cant complain about the boob tubes offerings! Hold on to your headphones kids.. is that ELVIS COSTELLO?? Yup, hes got that old hag wife of his (I’m kidding shes lovely I hate her) but Costello on TV! HURRAY!
Conor is the poster child for bad childhoods and bleak outlooks to a generation that is unable to do their own laundry. At age 32 his genius is more rooted in his ability to grab this demographic and hold them captive.
Tonight Jamie Fox hosts Saturday Night Live with Ne-Yo as his musical wing man. I prefer that Fox perform but hey that’s just me. Remember him on the show In Living Color?! That was a great show and before he was Ray Charles and shit.
His music has crossed cultures and even generations–the Beatles have sold more than 2,303,500,000 record albums, and in June of 2012 they hit number one on iTunes. They are as big now as they ever were and they’re half dead
Warped Roadies is a new show on Fuse showing a backstage and gritty look into the inner workings of this fabulous event. This ‘behind the scene’ look is going to fuel a zillion kids who will now want to be roadies
I mean there is Rhianna and Mariah and they’re all well and good but when you get some ‘alt’ bands in on the mix it sounds so much more refreshed and energized. Considering these kids are young enough to still believe in flying reindeer, there’s no doubt that the amplified enthusiasm is sincere.
Anyone with a half way decent phone (even my crap Blackberry) and be plugged in the car for nonstop tunes. Spotify, Pandor, even Iheartradio- all are better than SiriusXM.
This idiotic rant is courtesy of Esquire who really needs readers cuz they’re a glossy. White starts with Lady Gaga and fizzles his blabber to Clint Eastwood. If ever ‘shut up and play the hits’ applied, it’s with this guy.
I have one pearl of advise for LOG singer Randy Blythe- don’t go to the Czech Republic ever again. Screw your fans have them fly over to see you, you will never be found innocent.
I don’t suppose anyone ever thought hard rockers such as Led Zeppelin would be involved with this type of thing back when they were starting out.
Qello, the digital streaming service, along with Eagle Rock Entertainment are hosting a Facebook Digital Premiere of The Doors 1968 live concert at the Hollywood Bowl.
Facebook ate MySpace and spit it back up and bands realizing that have really spruced up their pages adding loads of content and info. Recommend.ly an online research page has some interesting statistics. Musicians and bands seem to have the most ‘likes’ or ‘fans’
What does this add up to? Some of the most ‘so last year’ performers on a show that didn’t have the courtesy to revise its title. ABC used to be THE place for New Years Eve but now? Well aside from Pitbull, yeah no I’m not in.
I found these figures rather surprisingly low. The order of value even more confusing Who would ever imagine that selling headphones for $110 million bucks. All he had to do was swing a pen around for that wad. Poor Adele.
In a society that gives people awards for waking up it’s a sad thing that the nomination announcement warrants an hour of your life- let alone with your ears being assaulted by Maroon 5.
It’s as if the television Gods have glanced down at the huddled masses and offered them a week of pleasure for the hard time served. Its a wonderful thing. Yes of course, there is crap Reba and Richie Sambora seem to be hitting it with a vengeance but there is also Big Boi and holy hell is that Led Zep on Monday?
The Kraft Group just happened to own the property where the drinking took place. They did not supply it, nor is it a ‘over 21’ parking lot. Their only liability here is not catching it in the act and with the expanse of this venue there is no surprise in that.
Despite snorting ants, eating bats and being the prince of darkness, he’s just a regular guy. His band Black Sabbath has been around for what seems like forever and is in the studio now with their eye on April for release
When you’re dropping $80.00 for a zipped hoodie you can’t help but wonder where the DIY of rock and roll has gone. They call this ‘lifestyle’. I call it cash in on the kids while their parents are still paying
