‘Security Breach’ Ends in Oasis Assault
September 8, 2008
Somewhere Jay-Z is laughing … uncontrollably [youtube CX5JBsKih0c] Call the Brothers Gallagher what you will. (Egotistical wankers, for instance.) Us, we actually dig a lot of Oasis‘ discography, especially in a live setting, where they usually put on their very best ‘bigger than Jesus’ act alongside such Brit-pop standards as “Cigarettes & Alchohol,” “Live Forever,” […]
THIS WEEK IN UNCOOL: A Pre-Release Review of Metallica’s “Death Magnetic”
September 7, 2008
By Arye Dworken Lars Ulrich is okay with it, in case you were wondering. After having resisted his torrent-savvy fans for all these years, the Metallica drummer has finally made peace with the Internet. “Listen, we’re 10 days from release. I mean, from here, we’re golden,” he told San Francisco’s Live 105 in response to […]
PEEP SHOW: Poni Hoax, “Pretty Tall Girls” (Live)
September 6, 2008
[youtube 17O1EB6Y9Mg] We fell pretty damn hard for Poni Hoax earlier this year thanks to the seamless dance-rock symmetry of their second LP, Images of Sigrid (Tigersushi). Now before you scoff at the very idea of yet another band schooled in the art of Joy Division, Giorgio Moroder and the Talking Heads, know this: Poni […]
I WAS THERE: Tricky @ Irving Plaza, 8.4.08
September 5, 2008
Photos/Text by Andrew Parks Take a look at Tricky‘s prominently-displayed six pack in the photo above. Dude looks intense after all these years, right? You don’t know the half of it. While we expected the worst at New York’s Irving Plaza last night (at this point, it’s clear he’ll never top the trip-hop heights of […]
SUBTERRANEAN’S CHOICE: Japanese Motors, “Single Fins & Safety Pins”
September 4, 2008
Wondering when MTV’s gonna play music videos again? They certainly do on Subterranean, today’s answer to 120 Minutes. Presenting the show’s clip of the week, an s/t exclusive : Summer’s almost over and those of us at Subterranean headquarters are gearing up for the VMAs this weekend. It’s kind of headache inducing so as an […]
1MM: The Pigeon Detectives @ Music Hall of Williamsburg, 9.3.08
September 4, 2008
Photos by Andrew Parks “Is anyone here British?” [A round of cheers and high-fiving soccer hooligans.] “And how many Americans are here?” [A couple golf claps and a chorus of chirping crickets.] And with that, the Pigeon Detectives‘ frontman–a mic-wielding, spring water-spewing Matt Bowman–nailed the problems and the promise of the UK’s latest Brit-pop band. […]
THE S/T INTERVIEW: Brandon Curtis of The Secret Machines
September 3, 2008
By Arye Dworken Contrary to popular belief, being a rock star isn’t always glamorous. Especially when you lose an integral band member and part ways with a major label all in the same year. In the Secret Machines‘ case, that integral member also happened to be a blood relative (guitarist/backup vocalist Benjamin Curtis, who’s now […]
PEEP SHOW: The Most Embarassing Bowie/Jagger Video … Ever
September 2, 2008
[youtube 7y-x2fWKbmo] Um, yeah. We blame the ’80s. (Just look at those outfits!) Hey, at least David Bowie and Mick Jagger didn’t follow their original plan for 1985’s “Live Aid” movement: covering the Bob Marley standard “One Love.” Either way, it should be noted that this ridiculous Martha and the Vandellas cover gave rise to […]
