fun. Streams New Song for HBO’s ‘Girls’ Soundtrack
•
If you haven’t heard fun. by now, you must be living under a rock (or you don’t own a tv- seriously, did I miss the memo where advertisers were only allowed to use songs by fun. or Lana Del Rey last year?). For the uninitiated, fun. might seem like a radio rock construct that appeared…

‘Roo Clue Number 2!
•
We’re a little late on posting this one, but Bonnaroo released their second official lineup clue a few days ago. Along with the clue, the festival announced that they’re going to make the guessing game a little more complicated this year. This clue came in 3 parts (which are each lines to a haiku):…

The Coasts release new Santa Fe EP
•
Do you remember us chiding you to get to know our pal’s The Coasts a while back? They are from nearby Little Rock, and dropped their totally under the radar, lo-fi, psychy, surfy pop, self titled debut release in the Summer of 2011. That record was on heavy rotation for quite a while around…

New Release Spotlight | December 2012, Part 2
•
Now that the holidays have settled and everyone’s back in the swing of things, I wanted to go ahead and bring you the second part of our December Release Spotlight. As I mentioned in our New Release Spotlight | December 2012, Part 1, December is the slowest month for record releases. Rather than scrape together…

Ill Patriot, Sexx, The Tendoor, and McKenzie Gregg & the Tangles @ Exit/In Tonight
•
Ill Patriot is bang-your-head, politics-on-your-sleeve punk/hardcore music that is reminiscent of the melodic in-your-face approach of punk rockers Propagandhi, although Ill Patriot certainly has an aggressive hardcore side that sets them apart. I can see the mosh pits forming in my mind, and I’m trying to avoid them until I can’t take it anymore…

•
Yesterday on their official Facebook page, Bonnaroo posted this, their first lineup clue: Any guesses as to what it could mean? Here’s our best bet: I’m going to go ahead and call this one for Japandroids. Lots of people are making claims like David Bowie (wouldn’t that be rad), Tom Petty, Fleetwood Mac, Atoms for…
