Bleachers, the new solo project from fun. (and formerly Steel Train) guitarist Jack Antonoff, have just released their debut album, Strange Desire, and, already, it’s one of our favorite records of 2014. Infectiously catchy and stadium-primed, Bleachers lets Antonoff’s guitar-laden pop tendencies run wild, landing in a territory that is distantly different from the band…

Fresh off a three-year hiatus, New York post-punk revivalists Interpol are back with a new single, “All the Rage Back Home,” an accompanying music video (watch it below), and a highly-anticipated forthcoming fifth album, El Pintor, set to arrive Sept. 9.

Amidst a massive co-headling tour with Paramore, alt-rockers Fall Out Boy will be making a solo stop TONIGHT at Nashville’s Woods Amphitheater at Fontanel (Paramore are absent from this one, presumably due to Fontanel’s size) for their first large-scale Nashville show since their surprise 2013 comeback (the rockers did, however, play The Ryman and Rocketown last year). Out in support…

Chances are by now you’ve heard that Old Crow Medicine Show has released a new album, Remedy, and that they were all over town last week playing busking style pop-up shows in building hallways and at Grimey’s New and Preloved Music before finally making a stop at The Grand Ole Opry for Live radio.

As we announced a few months back, party king Andrew W.K., fresh off a covers tour with Marky Ramone, will grace the stage of Exit/In TONIGHT, July 11, for a solo performance along with The Nightbeast and locals Music Band and Punani Huntah. Andrew barely needs any introduction, and, frankly, if you’re unfamiliar with his work, this might not be a show…

Enigmatic emo kings turned dark and calculated indie rockers Brand New have announced a Nashville date, their first in years (if not first ever), Oct. 16 at War Memorial Auditorium.

Canadian dance punk duo Death from Above 1979 exploded onto the scene with their incredible 2004 debut, You’re a Woman, I’m a Machine, only to break up soon after.
