Supported by fiN As we walk in to a very crowded Kasbah tonight and squeeze ourselves up against the bar, the support band are already playing. They’re called fiN, yes that’s ‘fiN’ with some eccentric reverse capitalisation, a lowercase ‘f’ and a capital ‘N’, presumably to distinguish themselves from early 90's band Fin, not that it makes a jot of difference to google. As they play away we barter with the girl on the bar to find exactly what’s actually available tonight, beer - nope, San Miguel - ran out, wine - nope, shall we just have Tuborg then ...

New video from the Greek "version" of White Lies ; Personal ...I know I'm bashing them quite a lot for be a little too inspired by the aforementioned band, but I cannot help liking them quite a lot as well...the song can be downloaded for free from the band's Facebook BandPage (or below)... + Perfect Empty Clone

Study this! ;-) Bufi & Juan Soto – Monrovia [Buy It!] Chordashian – Don’t Wait Up (Downtown Party Network Remix) [Buy It!] Laberge – White Lies

Mitte Januar haben die Londoner Krautpopper Walls über Kompakt mit "Into Our Midst" die zweite Single ihres letztjärhigen Zweitwerks "Coracle" veröffentlicht, zu dem uns jetzt auch ein neues Video vorliegt. Der Song selbst präsentiert sich als über siebenminütiges schwebendes Stück Ambient-Electro, welches sich aber dank seinem dezenten Beat nicht vollständig in die Traumwelt verabschiedet, sondern auch zum hypnotischen Mitgrooven einlädt. Der Kurzfilm regt hingegen unseren Geschmackssinn an, denn Regisseur Sean Rogg filmte den Enstehungsprozess eines nicht näher definierten Konfekts. Werft an dieser Stelle einen Blick auf das Kunstwerk: Walls - "Into Our Midst" Der Italiener Alessio Natalizia und sein aus Manchester ...

Hyldestplade til Talk Talk får bidrag fra blandt andre Jason Lytle, Joan As Police Woman og White Lies

There’s been such an avalanche of hyped-up remixes of Lana Del Rey’s “Video Games” that everyone has probably grown a little tired of the song’s bare melody and icy vocals. From Balam Acab to Jamie Woon, from White Lies to … Continue reading »

Sales figures suggest alternative rock is in a dismal place right now. Will it ever recover? And should we care? This year's Brit awards will be a melancholy experience for indie fans. The genre's big performers on the evening will be Blur and Noel Gallagher, a pairing that will evoke memories of the 1995 ceremony, when Britpop swept the old guard away, and thus highlight the contrast with the current state of play. The latest issue of Q magazine opens its review of the new Maccabees album with the rhetorical question: "Has there ever been a worse musical ...

Jim Chancellor says record labels are 'scared' of signing guitar bands

Check this new track by Greek quartet Personal . Vocals are fine and the tune is pretty catchy, but they probably need to change something radically, unless they forever want to be labeled " White Lies light". + Love or Fate In case you missed out on it when I posted it last year ; Check the video for first single Prayer as well and the White Lies comparison becomes even more evident!

It has been a long wait for the stateside release of Guillaume Canet's "Little White Lies," his followup to the smash sensation "Tell No One." And it's bit baffling why it's taken this long. The picture premiered at TIFF way back in 2010, and became a bit hit in its native France, and the film soon found releases in Canada and the U.K., but a U.S. deal didn't seem to materialize for whatever strange reason. We can only guess its lengthy 154-minute running put folks off (it's hard to get people to sit ...

2011…what can you say about a year when the economy remained in the proverbial shitter, the markets were up and down more than The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, the housing market still hasn’t bottomed out, unemployment is staggering, people rioted, people occupied, people got pissed off to the highest of pissividity, Kim Kardashian got married, then got divorced, the Cardinals won the world series, and Tiger Woods was out of action? I know…its OVER. Thank god! Musically, things were MUCH better (well not from a sales perspective) and so much great stuff came out this past ...

After White Lies drummer, Jack Brown, claiming that Manchester has the best crowds in the UK, we were expecting White Lies to be particularly charged for this show. With Manchester having such a great musical heritage it’s always a great city to watch great live music, with that comes very passionate crowds who are die-hard fans of the bands they go to see. The combination of a band who loves to play in Manchester, who won a few awards after their debut album in 2009 including, Best New Band and Breakthrough Artist, and a crowd who is always one ...
