This Wild Life have revealed the details of their new full-length, and it features a special guest on every song. Can you guess who?
Following the release of her summer KANDY EP, with hits like “DOPAMINE,” Kami Kehoe is unleashing a brand new era with the release of “Fade Out.” And yes, this new offering will punch you in the gut with its brutal honesty and even more intense riffs. She notes, “‘Fade Out’ was definitely a harder song for me to write. I was going through a really low point, and all I can remember was feeling like it was never-ending. I ended up calling my mom during the spiral, and she told me, ‘It will all fade,’ and, ‘One day you’ll look… Read more »
“Invisible” is clever. As a pop-punk banger, it would be easy for As Time Fades to rest on the laurels of the track’s catchy hook and euphoric breakdown. But the real beauty of “Invisible” is the clever way the music gives life to its lyrical meaning.
Sometimes you need to make a fresh start, and GROVES’ new track “Faded Love” is gonna spark that change.
Disclaimer: Whenever, If Ever is a love/hate record. If you “get it,†you will be completely floored by its use of vast atmospheric textures and timbres, as well as its nostalgia factor. If you don’t, it will be a whiny, fragmented, enigmatic record that will be a struggle to listen to.
Pink’s marriage was apparently not a feel-good time. The pop-punk princess and her husband of just two years, the motocross-racing, Surreal Life-starring Carey Hart, have separated. And by the sounds of things, rather amicably. “This decision was made by best friends with a huge amount of love and respect for one another,” said the singer’s publicist, Michele Schweitzer. “While the marriage is over, their friendship has never been stronger.” Indeed, in a post on her official site (pinkspage.com), Pink blames dueling careers for torpedoing the union. “The most important thing for you all to know, is that Carey and I… Read more »
Fans don’t have to worry about the Rolling Stones’ 40th-anniversary tour being their final performances. As long as the music sounds good, the legendary band’s keyboard player told The Associated Press, why stop? As for their advancing ages, Chuck Leavell said bluesman B.B. King and “Godfather of Soul” James Brown still perform, and no one thinks twice about whether they should leave the spotlight. Leavell did acknowledge that even singer Mick Jagger has expressed his doubts in the past. While on 1997’s “Bridges to Babylon” tour, Jagger said he never thought people would want to see them 35 years after… Read more »
Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich may have a shining future as an art dealer, having recently unloaded five paintings by Jean-Michel Basquiat for millions of dollars apiece, but maybe he should reconsider his side career as an A&R man. During an online chat last week on the band’s Web site, Ulrich confirmed that he had folded his record label, the Music Company, an imprint distributed through Elektra. One band Ulrich signed, Systematic, will find a new home at Elektra. Systematic’s debut, Somewhere in Between, has sold almost 70,000 copies since its release in May 2000. The drummer’s other acts, which fared… Read more »
It is 3:30 p.m. and Patrick Stump is sitting cross-legged on the balcony of his hotel, looking out on the Austin skyline with a smile on his face. He is wearing a gray button-up tucked into skintight black jeans. He looks ridiculously fit, not to mention pretty content. The smile never fades, not even for a second.
