CONFESSIONS OF A CMJ VIRGIN: Day 2, Featuring Women, Takka Takka and Free Blood
October 23, 2008
CMJ does not care for The CMJ Virgin. Apparently. And now, The CMJ Virgin presents a brief history of success and failure: Arriving at Bowery Ballroom for a showcase of bands no one cares about, our Virgin is informed that no more CMJ badges are allowed inside (fail). Hitting Mercury Lounge to catch another band […]
CONFESSIONS OF A CMJ VIRGIN: Day 1, Featuring Cheeseburger and Vivian Girls
October 22, 2008
Balancing a beer on your head (disguised as a can of Red Bull) is a skill and a fine art. If The CMJ Virgin were ever to get married, win the lottery or die, skuzz-bucket rockers Cheeseburger would play his party. No doubt. So it made perfect sense that on Day 1 of CMJ, our […]

October 21, 2008
Waiting outside Rebel to see Rival Schools and …Trail of Dead is stupid and takes forever. This evening past, The CMJ Virgin had an itch for which the combination of loud guitars, ferocious vocals and ridiculous stage banter was the only calamine lotion. Which is why he met up with self-titled contributor Michael Tedder for the unofficial […]
CONFESSIONS OF A CMJ VIRGIN: Introduction
October 20, 2008
This is what a CMJ virgin looks like. He wears thick glasses. And has a recently grown beard–it’s slightly trimmed but mostly unkempt because he wants it to get quite bushy. (And yes, that is a bulldog puppy calendar over his shoulder. It’s adorable as hell. So shut the fuck up.) It’s true: He has […]

Photos by Andrew Parks The following is photographic evidence of Alice Glass in heat, a few songs before she tossed Tunglid’s house drum kit into an over-capacity crowd that ate up Crystal Castles’ every move…

October 20, 2008
Ólafur Arnalds goes looking for the leprechaun at the end of Iceland’s famous ‘Golden Waterfall’ Text/Photos by Andrew Parks If you’re from a major city and have never been to ReyjkavÃk before, finding yourself lost at 1 a.m. on a weeknight is both disorienting and a bit scary. Namely because the place is so quiet, […]
