Like Franz and Shape before him, Kavinsky takes on high speed driving, house beats, and arpeggios with his track “Testarossa Autodrive.” After dying in a car crash in 1986, he is a zombie, and that means two things: he eats brains, and you don”™t want to be in the passenger seat.
Although, [...]

Music from Sweden always defines generations. You ask for proof? ABBA and Max Martin. Well add the Ark to that list because they’re about to take over.

The Ark is one of those bands that hype has slowly been building and building and building around. I have to admit I was kind of waiting on the [...]

How cute is Drummer Dog? Don’t you just want to hug him?

You can see Drummer Dog and all his friends in the video for Boy Least Likely To’s “Be Gentle With Me.”
Watch: Boy Least Likely To - “Be Gentle With Me” (Hi | Lo)
Boy Least Likely To is just impossible not to love — [...]

Happy Valentine’s Day to those who care for such holidays. Here’s a little gift to you from a very mysterious band who only seem to have one song and no official website.
First heard this song at Hold Yr Horses thanks to our favorite guest DJ, Dylan, who unfortunately misplaced his vinyl for this song that [...]

I know. This photo is a bit boyband-ish, but all Men, Women & Children have in common with the Backstreet Boys is fucking fun tunes. This is non-stop dance… dance-rock. Don’t worry though. They’re not another The Killers or The Bravery. Thank. God. Think more like the Scissor Sisters on speed. Or Devo not being [...]

My one big memory of Blondie dates back to my days in art school. We would pull these all nighters in printmaking - specifically lithography class. All night we would play “Rapture” over and over and over again trying to memorize the rap… which, personally, I could never remember. There’s something so natural playing a [...]

Codebreaker brings the funk to nu-electro. If you look at most - if not all - contempory electro acts, they’re missing funk. But please go back to the source: Afrika Bambaataa, Cybotron, whoever. They all had at least an ounce of funk. Codebreaker sound like what would’ve happened had electro stayed electro and never evolved [...]

If you happen to watch The L Word this Sunday you might just catch a special cameo performance by Sleater-Kinney. They just might be performing “Jumpers.”
I can’t believe someone hasn’t Youtube’d this yet. Oh wait…

This is in many ways better than last seasons surprise performances by both Peaches and The Organ. Somebody is picking [...]

The Glimmers remix of XLOVER’s “Lovesucker” is not quite as hot as the original version - gone are the dirty lyrics and faux electric synth guitar. The emphasis is instead on a steady, club worthy 4/4 beat and that weird siren noise that is almost buried in the original version. The Glimmers do what they [...]

Brooklyn’s The Witnesses released their sophmore album, Black Eyes and White Lies, yesterday. The quintet are one part garage, one part funk, two parts swagger and a dash of classic rock. “We’re Taking Over” is an anthem that will have you clapping along. I’m telling you, the hook will own you. Bonnie Bloomgarden and [...]
