Aemrica : A Horse With No Name [ purchase ] Back in the early 70s,   America was three kids whose fathers were US military stationed overseas: Gerry Beckley, Dewey Bunnell and Dan Peek.   They came together in the London area towards the end of their high school years.  Their 70s hits also included Ventura Highway and Sister Golden Hair. Today Bunnell and Beckley still tour (Dan Peek passed away last year). Story has it that Dewey wrote A Horse With No Name with thoughts of the desert around Vandenberg AFB, one of the temporary places his family lived and one he would surely ...

Geronimo's vocals are a marriage of Karen O and Toni Basil. The twang of Andrew Scarborough's guitar is evenly matched with the tight drumming of Michael Rudes. The A-side is tenacious, but just when you think you have this band pegged as another lo-fi beach band, they turn you on your ear with the flip side of the disc, "Shot on the Spot.” As if they were blown straight off the wind-swept ponderosa of a Sergio Leone flick, Raw Geronimo deliver their own spaghetti western strut. Laena's sultry lyrics hypnotize, a fine effect, while her bandmates synthesize ...

After a decade of silence, No Doubt is back! I have a personal attachment to Gwen and the gang because when I was around the wee age of ten, I found  Tragic Kingdom in my babysitter's rockin' CD collection,   and my life was forever changed (not really). Well today, they posted the first of many webisodes documenting them in the studio recording the new album. You can hear a bit of the song "Push & Shove" which has them teaming up with the great Major Lazer. The album has no name but is set to be released September 27, 2012 ...

naja, so'n richtiger teil dieser vorschau soll das hier nicht mehr werden. vielmehr die letzte inforunde. mal ein blick auf die running order werfen, über die compilation plauschen, die, als appetizer fungierend, mal so richtig den mund wässrig machen soll, und dann findet sich vielleicht noch der eine oder andere song, der der vorfreude auf die sechzehnte ausgabe des orange blossom special vorschub leistet. mmh, eigentlich ist alles gesagt. nun, hier die runnig order, die meines erachtens nicht hätte besser gelingen können. allein der freitag! amanda rogers einen ticken zu früh? marginalien. Donnerstag, 24. Mai 2012 Warm-Up-Party im Stadtkrug ...

The other day on Facebook, NME.COM's Luke Lewis made the bold claim that U2’s ‘Where The Streets Have No Name’ was the finest introduction to an album the world has ever witnessed. Some people agreed; some roundly mocked him. But his comments inspired me to compile a list of those songs that kickstart an album so brilliantly it gives you goosebumps. Let us know your own favourites below… [...] Read more!

Today we continue our  series of posts  that feature the exclusive premiere of video from GSW’s reunion shows in 2010, lovingly shot and put together by our pal  Mike Wren .

What we get from FTHRSN here is definitely a familiar implication of sounds, not straying too far from ...

Former Neighbours starlet Delta Goodrem has been accused of ripping off Canadian rockers Fire">Arcade Fire. Delta’s latest single 'Sitting On Top Of The World' shares more than a few features with Fire">Arcade Fire’s 2005 single 'Rebellion (Lies)'. Delta’s fans have been quick to leap to her defence on her fan forum posting a series of comments including this wonderful contribution: “As if Delta would’ve heard of this no name band and ripped them off”. As if indeed. Check out both videos and decide for yourself... Source Link:  Faster Louder Attached Image(s):  Fire">Arcade ...

For someone who's considered one of the greatest filmmakers in history, Sergio Leone was not especially prolific. While he worked extensively as an assistant director (with credits including "Bicycle Thieves," "Quo Vadis" and "Ben Hur"), he was only credited on seven films across his thirty-year career (with uncredited direction work on three others -- "The Last Days Of Pompeii," "My Name Is Nobody" and "A Genius, Two Partners and A Dupe"). But given that those films include some of the greatest Westerns -- the No Name">Man With No Name trilogy, and "Once Upon A Time In The West" -- and a ...

Advocates of primary colours and pals of Agnes B, Clash caught up with The Penelopes to discuss moving to the UK, Dan Gretch-Marguerat and making new music. Our meeting comes at the tail end of Paris Fashion Week, earlier in the day Vincent and Axel have played fashionista, watching Jean Charles de Castelbajac present his A/W 12/13 collection ("it was in a church so it was a bit mystical, a lot of black, less poppy, less colourful, less crazy") and later they will perform to a crowd of Parisian scenester's at the show's after party. But ...

Alright, this compilation looks to be one of the most essential things released all year if you're into house music, or dance music in general really. Featuring two discs of underground club tunes from the creative heyday of the UK acid house scene, there's no obvious hits here, but just killer music, made all the better by the fact that if you weren't raving twenty years ago, you'll probably not have heard most of it. In spite of the title, the tracks compiled are naturally a reaction in many ways to the sounds coming out of ...

Charming probably isn’t the right word, especially considering what they’re rappin about, but, hey, what are you gonna do. Got no name for the second mc neither.
