Morrissey Debuts a New Song on Letterman; The Whigs Play Leno! (VIDEO)
•
In this week’s Music on Television post, I named the Pope of Mope’s Tuesday night stop on Letterman as the performance not to miss. Moz certainly didn’t disappoint, performing a theatrical new track titled “Action Is My Middle Name” from his forthcoming album (currently sitting in limbo and he figures out a new label situation). Hardcore…

•
This show isn’t until Thursday, but since I’m about to make the case for a 3 hour drive through Alabama, I wanted to give you a couple of days to plan for it. You might remember how much I loved Forgetters‘ self-titled debut LP back in November. At the time, just the record alone…

Rapper Kitty Pryde Descends from the Heartcloud with Her New Single “Dead Island”
•
It’s kind of mind-blowing to think that the bulk of rapper Kitty Pryde‘s career ascent has occurred over only the past 6 months. Dubbed “cloud rap” (a new underground movement in hip hop that borrows chillwave’s ambient, dreamy aesthetic), the self-described “rap game Taylor Swift” essentially exploded from Tumblr with her song “Okay Cupid.” She…
