16 Pearl Jam Fans: Do You Like the New Songs?
Pearl Jam's next album, Backspacer, will be released on Sept. 20 and we've already gotten a little taste of what to expect. I've heard "The Fixer" on the radio all the time recently, and earlier this week a b-side track to "The Fixer," titled "Supersonic," came online (check it out below). As a Pearl Jam fan (I get to see the band this weekend at Outside Lands!), I'm mostly digging the new Read more
Singer-songwriter Jason Mraz has apparently made history with his single "I'm Yours." The song has spent 70 weeks on Billboard's "Hot 100," making it the longest-running song in the chart's 51-year history. Previously, LeAnn Rimes held the record with her 1998 song "How Do I Live." So, are you one of the many people listening to Mraz's music? If so, what do you like about it? I myself think his Read more
On Tuesday, MTV execs announced that they are renewing some shows, like Teen Cribs and Is She Really Going Out With Him?, and picking up a bunch of new series as well, like "the Ashton Kutcher-produced American Idiots, the scripted comedy Hard Times and an untitled comedy/variety project starring Rob Hoffman." Perhaps I'm dating myself here, but I recall when MTV, or "Music Television," was a Read more
Recently I asked you if you used to listen to Casey Kasem's radio shows and several commenters reminded me of a bygone practice in which I, too, took part: recording songs off the radio. Back in the cassette tape's heyday, I would try to obtain my favorite songs on the radio by pressing the "Record" button on my radio/cassette player as close to the beginning of the song as possible. Timing was Read more
For her first studio album in four years, Barbra Streisand is teaming up with jazz singer-pianist Diana Krall to release a collection of jazz tunes. Columbia Records has stated that the album, scheduled to hit stores on Sept. 29 and titled Love Is the Answer, "presents the artist as a cabaret and jazz singer of emotional clarity, depth and maturity." Are you glad to see Streisand back in action? Read more
Just for funsies, let's pit these two brotherly bands against each other. In a fight between the Hanson brothers (during their "Mmm-Bop" days!) and the Jonas brothers, who would win? Source Hansons vs. Jonases: Who Would Win? Hanson brothers Jonas brothers Read more
Remember back when Radiohead allowed listeners to pay whatever they wanted for the In Rainbows album? That was pretty cool, right? Well, Robert Smith of the Cure disagrees. He told the following to Music Radar: You can't allow other people to put a price on what you do, otherwise you don't consider what you do to have any value at all and that's nonsense. If I put a value on my music and no Read more
Normally, I'm nowhere near as fond of a cover as I am of the original song (few people are, I'd wager). Usually they just sound like cheap knockoffs. So I expected little of TV on the Radio's cover of David Bowie's "Heroes," and maybe that's partially why I liked it so much. It's different from Bowie's but familiar enough to not destroy the memory of the original. Also, I'm intrigued by the fact Read more
Some music news today: No Doubt is planning to regroup for an album and a tour. In an IM conversation on their site, guitarist Tom Dumont wrote "I have cabin fever. Maybe we should play some shows or something," to which Gwen Stefani responded, "I think we should go out now. I don't think we should wait. Pack up the babies and get a bunch of nannies. So fun! Would be so inspiring to get out Read more
Before being known to most as Natalie Portman's boyfriend, Devendra Banhart was famous in certain circles for turning out interesting neo-folk music and has been a mainstay in the independent music scene for a little while now. His new video for his Spanish language song "Carmensita," has people talking partly because Ms. Portman's in it but also because some people aren't sure how awesome this Read more
