PREMIERE: Cold War Kids - Louder Than Ever
It’s been a couple years since Long Beach, CA indie rockers Cold War Kids have released an album, but January 25, 2011 will see the release of their third studio album, Mine Is Yours (Downtown). The album was recorded and produced by Jacquire King, who has worked with Tom Waits, Kings Of Leon and Modest Mouse—the collaboration interweaves soulful energy throughout. We’re very...
Death Cab opens for the Seattle Mariners, plays indie version of “Take Me Out to the Ball Game”
Death Cab for Cutie continued their ascension into the post-mainstream by opening for the ultimate band of all–the Seattle Mariners, a major league baseball team from the Seattle Area. This seems like it is just the next step in their ascension towards playing the Super Bowl with Vampire Weekend in 2k14 (after the Kings of Leon in 2k13). Do u know if Cool Dads are into baseball? Feel...
Which indie artists will be selected as ‘The Best _____ of the Year’?
As yall know from the popular website calendar.blogspot.com, the year 2k9 only has 2 months left. The annual music cycle is ‘officially over’ and will be dormant until the first major indie album release in 2k10. This means ‘we’ as an altosphere need 2 do our best to reflect on the year that we just lived, and try 2 analyze which album/artist/mp3 we want to be the...
DOWNLOAD: The Whigs - Dying
  (Photo: Jordan Noel) "Dying" is the mercurial mid-album crescendo piece on The Whigs’ latest, In The Dark; their Spiritualized moment, basically, building over four minutes into a tsunami of guitar feedback, organ wash and drum fireworks. Should be useful in filling the many enormous spaces they’re playing this summer as openers for Kings Of Leon, The Black...
PREMIERE: Band Of Skulls - Impossible (Live At The Troubadour)
(Photo: Ryan Morris) Having existed for more than half a century, Hollywood venue The Troubadour is one steeped in rock myth. This 12-minute live cut of "Impossible" is the sound of Band Of Skulls trying to throw that off, and they succeed thanks to the truth in Russell Marsden’s throat and the sheer noise in their attack. The UK trio will be issuing new single "I Know...

I feel like that’s what happens when you play in huge venues in Middle...

Kings of Leon Reviews

Only By The Night
The Krak
Venue: The No.19 Bus Teaser: Theres a band on a bus. Once the bus leaves California in Norfolk, the band is armed. When it arrives in California, USA - the band goes off. What do you do? What do you do? Er… we’ll send Chris Hornby to investigate, thankyou. Pull quote 2: “How on earth do you manage to play a guitar whilst stood up on a bus that’s swirling a...
Lost and Found
Band name: THE DEXATEENS Label: No label Teaser: Dave is floored by the sweet southern rock genius of The Dexateens. What’s more, you can download their latest album for free for a limited time… Pull quote 2: This album is a fucking joy and it’s free. First para: I’m a big fan of the Dexateens, so it’s no suprise that Lost and...
Because of the Times
Band name: Kings of Leon Label: Columbia Teaser: In this review, Dave Hood refers to the new Kings Of Leon album by its acronym, which is ‘Bott’. Strangely appropriate, as it’s a big pile of arse. Plus there’s a feisty comment from ‘Minster’ just added, who uses personal insults and KoL’s commercial success to defend the album. Does anyone...
