Album:

Track:
The key to my mailbox doesn’t work. I left a note for the mail lady who in turn left a note about our mailbox being too full. Uh huh? Point is I got my Lady Gaga/Kid Cudi tickets in the mail today from Ticketbastard ($25 in fees for $30 tickets, die). The Monster Ball Tour [...]

Original Pirate Material Guardian’s Album of the Decade, Wrong But OK
-
Artist:
Fact: Every music publication that doesn’t name Radiohead’s Kid A as the album of the decade is only doing so for the shock value (Paste, would love to give you Illinois, I just can’t), but I have to give some blogkudos to the Guardian for their #1 choice of The Streets’ Original Pirate Material.Even though [...]

OK Go (Remember? The Treadmill Guys?) “WTF?” Video
-
Artist:
-
Track:WTF
OK Go, the band that actually created a successful career for just the cost of 8 treadmills, is back with yet another incredibly watchable one take clip for their new single, "WTF?" (SMH). The video makes insanely good use of wiffle ball bats, umbrellas, beach balls, and confetti. However, the band are downright abusing [...]

Passion Pit Do “Little Secrets” For the mtvU Woodies, Still Not Sounding Good Live
-
Artist:
The mtvU Woodies air in, like, a week, but for some reason you can watch some clips of the show and even see the entire list of winners on the awards' site (Matt & Kim's "Lesson Learned" won best video, beating out YYY's, The Dead Weather, and Kid Cudi). Besides a portion of Death Cab's [...]

Why? New Two Part Video “These Hands” / “January Twenty Something”
-
Artist:
-
Album:
-
Track:
Slightly eccentric Indie/hip hop band "Why?" just premiered a new two part video for Eskimo Snow's rather short lead off tracks, "These Hands" and "January Twenty Something." The songs don't really pack the same punch as most tracks from the band's 2008 album, Alopecia, and that semi-subtle, likable hip hop influence seems to be completely [...]

Songoftheday: “Bear” by The Antlers

Artist:
-
Album:
-
Track:
Regretfully, I just got around to The Antler's Hospice, a concept album about a man who watches a child die of cancer at Sloan Kettering. Happy Thanksgiving? The Brooklyn band released the critically acclaimed record at the end of the summer, and though only fully appreciated in the context of the extremely complex, depressing full length, [...]

Kanye West “I’m So Appalled” Verse From New Diddy Album
-
Artist:
-
Album:I’m So Appalled
That Kanye West "I'm So Appalled" verse has surfaced without DJ tags. The only leak of one verse from an upcoming Diddy album that I would ever post. The Kanye/No ID produced clip is NSFW, but definitely safe for a long holiday weekend. Give thanks. Download audio file (kanye-west-i_m-so-appalled-_no-dj_.mp3) "I'm So Appalled" Kanye West verse

[Hi. This is an update highlighting new albums recently added to the Mymix page.

Between that and this upcoming EP, that's a good hour and a half of brain-melting [...]

Battle Studies is a Douchebag: John Mayer’s Worst Album, And Then Some
-
Artist:
Remember the guy from Sex and the City that hung around his dead wife's grave, flashing pictures of her in his wallet and crying at the mention of her name to get girls to think he was emotional so they would sleep with him? That's John Mayer. Remember how Charlotte totally fell for it, and [...]

Pixies Do “Debaser” and “Hey” on Jimmy Fallon
-
Artist:
-
Track:
I’d imagine that going to a Pixies show would be more fun than some extremely fun things, but, as far as the band’s performances go, there doesn’t seem to be a whole lot to see. The songs themselves are really the only highlight (that and Black Francis’ very excellent shouts. Every time), but this is [...]

Did You Forget Charles Hamilton’s Name?
-
Artist:Charles Hamilton
Honestly, yeah. Kinda did. Poor guy. He got punched in the face by a girl in front of the whole internets, and then his ‘free’ debut album got shelved by Interscope (ouch). He also sort of lied about J Dilla executive producing his album, and has been an all around disaster. Apparently, Hamilton was down, [...]

Lily Allen Kidnaps Elton John in “Who’d Have Known” Video
-
Artist:
-
Track:Who’d Have Known
Hm. As much as I <3 Lily Allen and everything that she does [almost]ever, this is just…disturbing. I’m guessing that if Elton John was actually friends with her, he would have played himself, which…still would have been somewhat disturbing. Lily Allen force-feeding frozen pizza to an Elton John impersonator tied up in her living room: [...]

Peter Bjorn and John Close Out ‘Birthday Tour’ @ Club Nokia, Love Their Jobs
-
Artist:
I’m jealous of how much Peter Bjorn and John love their jobs. The Swedish band recently embarked on a short, 13 date US ‘Birthday Tour’ to celebrate their 10 year anniversary of making contagious, sophisticated indie-poprok goodness. Even though things got off to a slow start Saturday night at the tour’s final stop @ Club [...]

You and Vampire Weekend’s “Cousins” Made a New Video

Artist:
-
Album:Contra
-
Track:Cousins
After hearing a few live recordings of Vampire Weekend’s “Cousins” and watching it performed in a movie theater in Long Beach earlier this month, I quickly deemed it a new favorite from the band’s upcoming Contra. The video is vaguely reminiscent of the “A-Punk” clip (though I can’t remember any 10 foot penises drawn with [...]

Ernest Gonzales (AKA Mexicans With Guns), previously poprokking with a remix of AnCo's "My Girls" earlier this year, has himself another bloggable track with his take on A Sunny Day in Glasgow's "Shy." The bi-continental experimental pop band recently released their beautiful watch-the-sunset-to-me sophomore record, Ashes Grammar, and Gonzales' version brings out the songs best qualities [...]
