Weren’t the Jonas Brothers supposed to save the music business? All fads die overnight. Usually just when their perpetrators are lying in luxury, believing they can do no wrong. Let’s see. Take a no-talent, otherwise known as J. Lo, pair her up with a never been, i.e. Randy Jackson, and mix in one certified rock star and [...]

THE entire Jonas clan was on hand to support Nick Jonas and his gig on Broadway as the star of "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying."

The music manager, whose clients have included pop stars Justin Timberlake, Britney Spears and the Jonas Brothers, is helping to produce a 15-webisode non-scripted singing competition based on original music written by each contestant.

It is always refreshing to see young musicians playing instruments and writing their own songs. Southern California’s The Christopher Brothers can easily be compared to Hanson or The Jonas Brothers, but there is something different about these three shaggy haired siblings.  15-year-old Cameron (drums), 13-year-old Charles (lead guitars), and 10-year-old Ethan (bass) each began playing a variety of instruments at a young age and finally started playing as a trio in 2008. Beyond playing various covers by The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Santana, and Green Day, The Christopher Brothers also perform several original tracks. Their first EP,   Meet The ...

Demi Lovato was left fuming mad at her former employer, Disney, after learning that they had a joke about eating disorders in an episode of So Random and Shake It Up. In 2010, Demi checked herself into treatment after quitting the Jonas Brothers’ tour. It was later revealed that she was dealing with an eating [...]

La scorsa settimana era sembrata una bella boccata d’ossigeno per i cinema italiani, ma comunque più apparente che reale. Un film capolavoro come Enter the void è infatti uscito tipo in appena 6 sale in tutto lo Stivale e il promettente The Artist giusto in una ventina. E adesso arriva l’ondata dei cinepanettoni, che se non altro mi danno l’occasione per unirmi, in un clima quasi natalizio di pseudo-addio alle armi, alle bottigliate lanciate dal mio blogger rivale Mr. Ford . Ecco quindi i nostri commenti sui film del weekend cinematografico italiano (più un paio di recuperi che ...

Holy crap, good male vocalist here! This one goes out to all of the girls who swoon for soft guys like Bruno Mars and the girls who’ve grown past the Jonas Brothers onto more mature artists. Listen to his song and watch his video and you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about! Get it here.

It’s stressful being in a band. The singer’s always an asshole and the drummers just dumb. You bitch and moan in tiny rehearsal rooms, tinier dressing rooms and stinking studios. The money’s never right and half the time you’re drunk. Still, at least you can get away from it all- when the amp hum fades you can walk off and get your head straight. Unless. Unless you did the crazy thing and formed a band with your sibling. Get in a band with a brother or sister and there’s no escape. Christmas dinner and there ...

This morning Perry Farrell announced the lineups for Lollapalooza Chile (Foo Fighters, Björk and Arctic Monkeys) and Lollapalooza Brazil (Foo Fighters, Arctic Monkeys and Jane’s Addiction), two massive events that'll take place March 31-April 1, 2012 and April 7-8, 2012, respectively. When SPIN caught up with the always-chatty Jane's Addiction frontman a week ago, he talked about bringing his Lolla dream to South America... then expanded on plans to create an NBA for rock stars, dissed the Jonas Brothers, sort of praised Britney Spears, and revealed his love for Bon Iver. While planning these festivals in South ...

What do Kanye West, the Jonas Brothers, Mel Gibson and Marc Jacobs all have in common? Well, they've all been lampooned on "South Park." Jacobs recently appeared on the show. Well, actually, a doll-likeness of him called Muscle Man Marc appeared on the show. And the famed designer told MTV News last week that he can't [...]

Album: Lulu Artist: Lou Reed and Metallica Label: Warner Bros. Genre: Experimental Rarely do musical collaborations come along as perplexing and strange as Lou Reed and Metallica’s. Perhaps the Jonas Brothers and Common, or Nelly and Tim McGraw, perhaps Eminem and Elton John–no matter the collaboration you name, “Loutallica” ranks near the top in amount of head-scratchiness contained within. It’s pretty important to note that this is first and foremost a Lou Reed album featuring Metallica (meaning it’s not really a Metallica album). Lou Reed more or less asked Metallica to be his band for the ...

When Ripple mainman Racer and Tony from Stone Axe/Mos Generator both say an album is worth checking out then that’s all the incentive I need to buy. Especially when it’s a live album from The Sweet , one of the most underrated rock bands of the 70’s. Everyone knows their hits like “Fox On The Run,” “Ballroom Blitz” and “Love Is Like Oxygen” but their kick ass jams like “Sweet F.A.” and “Set Me Free” get no airplay on classic rock radio and are known only by freaks that write free record reviews on blogs for ...

The Jonas Brothers are a slice of America–totally inexplicable, vaguely gross and often beautiful. The twee trinity grew up on food stamps, and now live on a golden throne. The middle boy, Joe, is even managing to groom himself into a hipster media commodity. Who woulda thunk the cheese-tastic Disney-starring, Taylor Swift-dumping FM-lite power boy [...]
