Nirvana - Nirvana In the span of about eight hours, split between two lengthy plane rides between Madrid and San Diego, I read the entirety of Chuck Klosterman's tome on '80s glitter metal, "Fargo Rock City." In one of its most fascinating chapters, Chuck draws numerous parallels between Nirvana's Nevermind and Guns `n' Roses' Appetite for Destruction, stating that the albums are sequenced similarly, the music at times shares some sonic likeness and, hell, Kurt Cobain and Axl Rose even sort of looked alike at the time. Odd as it may sound, he's got a point. Nevermind was a mainstream smash for... Manchester Orchestra - Manchester Orchestra - Shake It Out - Music-News.com Atlanta's Manchester Orchestra are a well travelled, finely tuned beast of a live machine and on this single Shake It Out taken from their second album Mean Everything To Nothing, they bring the intensity to the record. Having supported the likes of Brand New, Kings of Leon and most recently Biffy Clyro here in the UK, the band are ready to surpass the shackles of support heroes and take the lead on their own. With suggestions of late Nirvana, Sonic Youth and the aforementioned Scots, Manchester Orchestra play emotive, loud and honest rock music with a nod to a pop element... Atreyu - Atreyu - Congregation Of The Damned To call your band after the character of The Never Ending Story is probably not the most metal thing to do. Certainly when you play a music style that is dominated by angry dudes who just want to smash in ugly faces. On the other hand it would do good with the girls and I have to say it turned out pretty well for them. Especially since they would move away from the typical metalcore sound over the years and create a more open and softer rock sound. To be honest I did like some of the early work of Atreyu... Arctic Monkeys - Arctic Monkeys WEEKEND VIDEO "Cornerstone"Humbug2009iTunes The stage presence and allure of a band's frontman is surely an important ingredient to any musical dynamic. Their captivating movements are usually one of the main components people remember. Enter UK foursome Arctic Monkeys and their latest video, "Cornerstone," featuring their likable frontman Alex Turner.The concept behind "Cornerstone" is extremely simple, a one-shot clip that finds Turner in oversized vintage headphones behind a sea of white. The heartbreaking lyrics illicits interest, but it's Turner's subtle swagger and facial charms that truly engulfs your senses.~ Filter Magazine ...Groove Armada - Groove Armada - I Won't Kneel Andy Cato and Tom Findlay funkmaster fingertips recreate and continue to stylishly evolve with Groove Armada�s stunning new release 'I Won�t Kneel�.

Morrissey - Morrissey leaves concert after getting drink tossed at him Lots of Morrissey drama popping up as of late. The latest is that he was performing only his 2nd song in Liverpool, UK when some ass clown threw his glass bottle at Morrissey. Not sure what’s true or not, but some reports are saying the glass bottle hit his head. Morrissey said goodbye to the ...Nirvana - Nirvana WEEKEND VIDEO / A FAVORITE FROM 15 YEARS AGO "The Man WhoSold the World"MTV Unpluggedin New YorkOriginal release date:November 1, 1994iTunesThe last Nirvana collection recorded before the untimely death of Kurt Cobain, Unplugged caught many by surprise with its stripped down, neo-acoustic offerings with a bridled fury. When Cobain sings, "I swear I don't have a gun, I don't have a gun" with clenched teeth (instead of an open howl) and when the haunting strains of "About a Girl" â€" from their earliest LP â€" chills even with quieted guitars, you discover a new...

This track is the first to be taken from her forthcoming second album (Echo) and tells the tale of everyone wanting to be happy with their life but always striving for something else. It is a great track to again showpiece Leona's amazing vocal capabilities. The dark message is to some extent countered by the vocal range and power Leona delivers. This is another strong track, and having... |
