It’s hard not to feel a bit of nostalgia when it comes to James Iha’s solo debut, Let It Come Down. Put to tape toward the end of the Smashing Pumpkins’ 1990s heyday, the decidedly un-SP set and intimate change of pace on Adore five months later seemed to foreshadow Iha’s imminent departure. So, for [...]

Gemini Club’s latest single “By Surprise” was recorded at the famed Chicago Recording Company where fellow locals such as Wilco & Smashing Pumpkins turned out many well-known classics.  This influence and surrounding has helped Gemini Club bring a much needed indie sensibility to the electronic dance music scene.

Anxiety will see daylight very shortly. The Big Pink recently covered The Smashing Pumpkins. Purchase Ladyhawke items via Insound. MP3: Ladyhawke – Black, White & Blue (The Big Pink Mix)

There's truth in the title of Ladyhawke's new album. "It's called Anxiety because it came from a really difficult place," explains the New Zealand pop-rock singer, born Phillipa "Pip" Brown. "I'd been living in this touring bubble for two years after releasing my first album [2008's Ladyhawke ] and then suddenly I had to write a second album. I was under a lot of strain." Not that anyone's second album is supposed to come easily. "Of course I know that," says Brown, laughing, "especially because people kept telling me!" "Black White & Blue," the first single ...

The Civil Wars @ Paramount Theatre – January 19 “Delicate” can be a dirty word; a few shades in the wrong direction and your sound is too quaint, or too cutesy, or too precious, or too twee, or so ethereal as to be vapor. So you have to hand it to Joy Williams and John Paul White, the singing, strumming duo that comprise The Civil Wars . They lean delicate and almost effortlessly find that sweet spot where gentle meets rich, holding steady in that spot with a combination of slightly mischievous personality, rock-solid chemistry, sturdy songwriting and that most reliable of musician ...

Abner and Harper Willis are a pair of brothers who front “the New York City-based indie rock band” Two Lights. Their idea of success includes scoring a worthless “VIP pass” for an unnamed British pop star and then being surprised when the backstage room didn’t look like a P. Diddy White Party , a review in a third-tier NYC free magazine that meaninglessly describes their music as having “the magical power to obliterate wintery thoughts,” and hiring “a manager who’s helped break artists like Blur and the Smashing Pumpkins” — which is code that anyone familiar with the music industry ...

Got another music submission for you on this fine day, this time out of Ottawa, Ontario. Heavily influenced from some of the 90's finest rock acts, Animal Confession describes their sound as a mix between the Deftones and The Smashing Pumpkins although when I first listened to their track "Epidemic" I kind of got an early Finch vibe from them. It's moody, melodic and kicks a little ass in the process. It's a good tune no matter how you look at it and possibly an indication that rock music may be making a much needed comeback in ...

Up and coming psych rockers RACES have dropped the first video for their debut album, Year of the Witch, due 3/27 on Frenchkiss Records. With the textured rock sound that hearkens back to the good days of the Smashing Pumpkins (read: Siamese Dream) and a dynamic interplay of male and female vocals alongside a trippy video of the coolest house part you wish you'd ever attended, the track, "Big Broom," marks RACES as a band to watch and to see if the rest of their library can maintain this instan

Listen to them all in the YouTube playlist below, including tracks from Tribes , Glasvegas and Cut Copy . YOUTUBE PLAYLIST: TRACKLIST: 10. Katy B - 'Broken Record' Katy B was one of the few British 'ones to watch' from 2011 that truly delivered on their potential. This single demonstrates why she was dubstep's major breakout star, melding a pop nous to electronic beats which packs an emotional punch with her affecting vocal. 9. Toddla T - 'Watch ...

The Ottawa, Ontario hard rock band Animal Confession plans to invade your ears and penetrate your brains in 2012 with their debut album. Comprised of Andrew Gharib (vocals, guitar) and Patrick Quesnel (bass), Animal Confession’s music combines the gritty toughness of Deftones, with the moodiness of Smashing Pumpkins and The Cure. Properly targeted music may [...]
