Nashville pop rock trio Paramore released an incredibly unique new music video for their track “Ain’t It Fun” yesterday, in which the group succeeds at setting an impressive TEN world records- the most ever in a single music video (Weezer previously broke five in their video for “Troublemaker”). “Ain’t It Fun,” which was seeded to radio…
Nest are a local band we don’t spend nearly enough time talking about. Like their peers in acts such as Daisyhead, Courtesy Drop, and Free Throw, Nest are helping shape Nashville’s indie/alt/punk/post-hardcore/emo scene in an unparalleled way, and one that, for whatever reason, is still flying largely under the local music media’s attention. Having formed…
If you followed the site at all last fall, you probably remember our collective obsession with “Ghost,” the latest single from Nashville’s Chelsea Lankes. Lankes has given us a live version and remix in the months since its release and, now, finally, she’s premiered the official music video for the track, directed by Alex Beh. Last we…
Last week we brought you the title track from Vinyl Thief‘s upcoming EP, Stop Motion, (thanks to Noisey) and today we have the entire thing for your listening pleasure (thanks to Paste). This long-awaited followup to 2012’s Rebel Hill is everything we hoped for and more. Channeling the same pop sensibilities, affinity for synthesizers, and eclectic indie rock foundation, Stop Motion is,…
This one managed to slip by us last weekend (shout out to Nylon for the premiere), but Nashville’s Tristen has premiered a new music video for “Catalyst.” The track is one of our faves from the singer’s amazing new album, C A V E S, which we’ve been raving about for months, and even named one of the Best…
In the time since we first announced that the Pixies would be performing at The Ryman, the group have premiered several videos, gone through another new bassist, and dropped their second surprise EP in the course of just a few months. Not bad for a group who spent 22 years without a proper release. The band are back with…
As we told you last week, Nashville-born Miley Cyrus aired her very own MTV Unplugged last night, Jan. 29, ahead of her upcoming Bangerz tour, which makes a stop at Bridgestone Arena on April 18. Between her Disney ties, recent affinity for club jams, and top 40 over-production, it’s easy to forget that, at her core, Cyrus was raised in…
UK trio White Lies have played Nashville exactly one time, in 2009, at Bridgestone Arena (then the Sommet Center) with two local acts: Kings of Leon and Mother/Father. Performing in a hard environment to make a first impression and supporting a band that’s a little out of their wheelhouse, it’s hard to say that White Lies have…
We let our Roo Clue solvin’ slip a little last week, so we’re back today with a double helping (if we make it to #7, it could be a triple!). Can you believe we’re already at the halfway point? In just a few short weeks, Bonnaroo will reveal their full 2014 lineup! This year’s Roo Clues,…
Hard rock/hair metal mavens Mötley Crüe have been been threatening to throw in the towel for quite some time now, and, finally, it appears that they’re actually prepared to. Though many bands bill their tours as a “farewell,” only to resurface for a “comeback” or reunion just a few years later, the Crüe have gone so…
