The Go! Team Is Back! Back To Attack
Thursday, August 23rd, 2007I’ve missed The Go! Team, and a brief cameo from Ninja on a Simian Mobile Disco track just wasn’t enough to hold me over. Check out this preview of the new album:
Great New French Band Alert- The Shoppings
Tuesday, August 14th, 2007
The Shoppings are a new French pop duo who only write songs about fashion. “Comme Terry”, which is a tribute to fashion photographer Terry Richardson is probably the most hilarious. Although the songs of The Shoppings do center around one topic, they refuse to be classified as a novelty act. The band will not play any fashion-related events and insist that they are a rock band first, fashion addicts second. Listen to them on myspace!
Operator Please- The Coolest Kids I Know
Friday, July 27th, 2007
Rewind to about a year ago when I first met a group of teens from Gold Coast, Australia when they came to NYC to play some industry showcases. They were just a band of high school kids with a lot of Aussie A&R buzz and some catchy songs and great live energy. This band was Operator Please, and they have since blown up in Australia and the UK and are about to take the USA by storm. They are about to embark on a whirlwind tour with the Kaiser Chiefs and after that they head to Europe and then to the US in the fall, where they have already started building an impressive fan base. They have received multiple shout outs from Perez Hilton on his blog (he has announced that they are his favorite band) and their Myspace and YouTube presence is viral to say the least. They are almost done recording their debut album and I am sure it will be just as infectious as their amazing EP’s.
Yet Another Bizarre Kanye West Video
Thursday, July 26th, 2007
Zach Galifianakis
Surely someone has emailed you this awesome (yet truly strange) alternate Kanye West video for “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” starring the hilarious Zach Galifianakis and Will Oldham. This internet craze features Galifianakis and Oldham as farmers lipsynching Kanye’s lyrics. Sound too bizarre to be true? See it for yourself!

Jamie T- The Male Lily Allen
Friday, July 13th, 2007
As Lily Allen mania hits the USA, I am left asking one question: when is Jamie T going to get his turn? Like Allen, Jamie is a Brit singer songwriter who creates reggae-infused pop and curses like a sailor. England loves him, so why can’t we? Don’t get me wrong, he did get a song on Entourage and gets some coverage in the indie music press but when will he get a sold out tour and a Saturday Night Live Appearance? Jamie, I am waiting!!

Jason Schwartzman Resurrects His Music Career
Thursday, July 12th, 2007
Remember the good old days when Jason Schwartzman wasn’t just an actor? When he was also the drummer for California indie pop band Phantom Planet? After the release of their third album, Schwartzman resigned in order to pursue his acting career full time. As time went by, Phantom Planet faded into the distance and Schwartzman’s acting career took off. His musical past became ancient history. Fast forward to 2007 and the debut of Schwartzman’s new solo project, Coconut Records which isn’t much of a departure from his old Phantom Planet days. Each song is light and sunny and some are even California themed (the first single is called “West Coast”). The sound is very sweet and simple with nice little melodies. I, personally am glad that Jason is back making music again and was able to provide us with the perfect summer soundtrack.
The Chemical Brothers- We Are The Night
Wednesday, July 11th, 2007
We Are The Night, the new album by UK electronic legends The Chemical Brothers, does not disappoint. By sticking with their tried and true formula of loading up on special guests, they have created another solid album. The artists making appearances this time around include Fat Lip from The Pharcyde, The Klaxons, Midlake, and Willy Mason who are all amazing in their own right and combined with the beats of the Chems, provide us with some pretty interesting tracks. The content of this album is just as diverse as the guest artists performing on it which allows The Chemical Brothers to hold their title as one of the most interesting and inventive electronic artists to date.
