Artist:
-
Album:
Carey Mercer is a busy man. Between leading Frog Eyes (TMT Review) and sharing the lead in Swan Lake (TMT Review), you'd think there was already enough on his plate. This is obviously not the case, as Mercer will be releasing his second full-length solo album under the moniker Blackout Beach later this year.

Album:The Lucky Old Sun
Even though the house killed the financial bailout bill yesterday, Brian Wilson proceeded with the announcement of an upcoming tour that will see him performing That Lucky Old Sun (TMT Review), plus other tunes, in its entirety. The announcement is being seen on both sides of the aisle as "terribly timed" and "unpatriotic." "I just don't understand why Wilson has to make the announcement right now

UPDATE: Bush Administration Voices Strong Opposition to Senate-Approved Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights Act Bill (And Totally Ruins My Fake Contest)
In a welcomed update to a story we posted two weeks ago (TMT News), the Enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights Act Bill seems geared for a veto after the Department of Justice and the Department of Commerce issued a joint statement September 23, 2008 voicing concerns over the increased bureaucracy and the weakened separation of powers mandated by the bill, which was approved last Friday by th

Artist:
My consumer confidence in rock shows for this quarter just went through the roof. Seriously, find your day planner and pencil in some quality time with Gang Gang Dance and Marnie Stern, the sickest tour announced in quite some time. If you're a Marnie Stern n00b and need a quick lesson, here's what you should know: First, this girl rips on the axe. We're talking rapid-fire EVH finger-tapping so...

Artist:Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band
Sarah knelt at the top of the 18th hole, deep in thought. "I'm going to bank it off the side of the windmill," she stated. "Gimme the putter." "That's not possible," I responded. "Ball's gonna hit the big grizzly bear cutout and end up in that puddle. And, you know, you do need this shot to tie." I was happily smirking over my imminent mini-golf triumph. "Just give me the putter." I handed Sarah t

All Tomorrow's Parties New York 2008
[September 19-21, 2008] Friday Though I may not have caught all I liked, I'm happy to say I spent my ATP kickoff right there for the first dusty amp clop and ensuing apocalyptic mottled tendril miasma that was Bardo Pond's Lapsed. No subtle way to start what's essentially a rock fest - and not necessarily an uproarious one. With a sound like a lackadaisical Hawkwind without all of the '70s trap...

The music market took an extra large hit this week on Wal-Street, when the value of DRM songs from Wal-Mart began to plummet at a rate not matched since the great Wax Recording Crash when vinyl came along. After it was recently uncovered by economic experts that Wal-mart, who began offering DRM MP3s in August 2007, had been irresponsibly offering customers cheap DRM music that it could not supp...
