Each month For The Record is here to bring you the best places to find your next favorite band in different cities all over the world—right to your screen. This time we’re in Paris, the City of Lights.
The holidays are here! For the month of December, we’ll be looking at two Christmas greats, old and new, and some of the best covers in between. First up? A personal favorite: Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas Is You.”
The Punk Goes Pop series is six volumes deep at this point, celebrating the release of its most recent compilation this week — but what if we were able to flip the script and pull in artists from the world of mainstream pop to take on music from our scene?
Every music fan has a closet full of band tees — but how many can say they douse their lunch in a band’s branded hot sauce and eat it with a band’s branded plastic fork?
What exactly makes an artist a certain genre? Here’s a handy guide to help you figure it out.

Why are Gerard Way, Bombay Bicycle Club, and Foster The People all in NYC this week? For the CMJ Music Marathon of course, and you should be here too! There’s nothing like the thrill of discovering a new favorite band, and with over 1,400 artists playing more than 300 showcases at 80+ venues throughout the city, CMJ surely has one for you. The music marathon welcomes veterans like Cold War Kids, newcomers like Zella Day, International acts including the famous Japanese all girl punk band Shonen Knife and countless up and coming artists all hoping to be discovered. These acts are brought together for five days of music and featured speakers from the industry. For each day, idobi Radio will be bring you the CMJ “Four Playâ€: four can’t miss events for each day of CMJ.

While Lil Wayne has, to the best of my knowledge, spent around 70% of his career so far behind bars, you don’t need to share his level of passion for drugs and weapon possession to end up in an orange jumpsuit. In this week’s Tuesday Ten, we look at some of the other crimes that have landed musicians behind the ever-so-flattering lens of the mugshot camera.
