album review: ben folds presents
Most music lovers who exist in the collegiate world are familiar with their respective campus a cappella groups, existing as all male, female, co-ed, and even religious centric. In places like universities with a strong arts program or a bunch of dramatic theater majors, they can act as a surrogate football team; attracting students of all ages to rally and supp ...

Album Review: ben folds presents - university a cappella
Most music lovers who exist in the collegiate world are familiar with their respective campus a cappella groups, existing as all male, female, co-ed, and even religious centric. In places like universities with a strong arts program or a bunch of dramatic theater majors, they can act as a surrogate football team; attracting students of all ages to rally and support every show, treating members ...

new music video: the love language - "sparxxx"
North Carolinian band The Love Language sure know how to party. What starts with the band getting down all alone to their vintage brand of chirpy pop, ends in one hum dinger of a birthday party. Bet you haven't been to a party this good in awhile... - David Pitz

new video: the horrors - "who can say"
Though The Horrors are, quite honestly, horribly image conscious, their latest video "Who Can Say" is certainly a nice piece of film. Shot in icy black, white, gold, and metallic, the video sets the perfect tone to the band's 50s-doo-wop-gone-70s-punk.object
new video: papercuts - "future primitive
We've been nibbling on this little number since it made its' way to us a few weeks back. Here's a nice visual that gives this highlight from Papercuts' recently released album You Can Have What You Want a little more context. A grainy journey to nowhere in particular, our hero here is ...

new video: jack penate - "tonight's today"
This grey scale dreamscape for Jack Penate's "Tonight's Today" comes courtesy of director Alma Har'el. Like Har'el's own version of a Fellini film, "Tonight's Today" is classically shot, though surreal in its' fantastical scenery. Choreographed dancers, impassioned lovers, a tortoise, Penate in ...

Album Review: years - years
You may not yet be familiar with the name Ohad Benchetrit. Or maybe it rings a few bells as a member of Do Make Say Think or Broken Social Scene. The truth is that for years now, Benchetrit has been playing all sorts of instruments, helping shape the sound of many of the well known bands in the Canadian indie music scene. It then seems appropriate that since it has taken years for Benchetrit to...

peter doherty: new video, contest, widget
Good things can happen when talented people quit fooling around and get down to what they do best. In Peter Doherty's case, one never knows whether he is back for good or whether he is simply teetering on the line, awaiting the next crash. Nevertheless, when Peter Doherty gets down ...

Album Review: the pains of being pure at heart - self titled
It's rare that in 2009 a quality pop album creeps under the radar without any hype attached, but that's exactly what happened with the self-titled rookie outing from Brooklyn based four-piece The Pains of Being Pure at Heart.
