As you may or may not know, since I moved to the UK, I've been going to many shows. I want to share my experiences with you, but I'm afraid that if I make 10 live reviews posts a month, I will bore you, come off like I'm boasting, and end up repeating myself (I'm an amateur, after all!). So, I came up with this idea instead. UK shows diary posts, which I will make once a month, summing up a mon...

Quite often I find myself reading the home pages of many of the people here on MOG. One of my favorite things to look at is people's online musical collections. If I see some bands listed that I like, well I usually dig a little deeper to see if there is anything that I had not heard before and in turn head over to Itunes to give them a listen.My question here is this, if you had to trade compu...

After much blood, sweat, and tears I managed to compile my list. My favourite 16 (yes, I know it's an unorthodox number} albums of 2008. There are many I haven't heard yet {sorry, Primal Scream}, and I'm mostly being subjective and self-centered, meaning that these are the albums that I listened to and enjoyed the most, as well as those which touched me in 2008 ways.For the first time I left ou...

Here are my top 10 albums for the first half of 2008. Order is based on how often I listened to them so far. Underneath each album are a study on {approved!} allmusic adjectives, lyrics in italics form and some ramblings of mine.This post is dedicated to Stefan (http://mog.com/SA), who organized this whole project, and whom I tortured by changing my list 3 bloody times :) If you haven't voted ...

I discuss the collaboration between Arctic Monkey's frontman Alex Turner and Rascals songwriter Miles Kane with non-Mogger, the Girlfriend (a.k.a Jill).The GF: These songs really wants to make you want to jiggle your body and dance around. It’s sad though, if I like something, I can’t be jokey about it. I can’t slag it.Me: Okay, I’ll slag it.The GF: No, don’t!Me: This is the 21st Century

MOGstars: 9/10Understatements can’t really be something Alex Turner has heard much in the last few years- ever since he muttered “Don’t believe the hype” at the start of the video for I Bet You Look Good on The Dancefloor he and his band of Arctic Monkeys have been showered with superlatives; fastest-selling, best, phenomenal and a thousand other compliments have come there way from both c

The Last Shadow Puppets, comprised of 1 Arctic Monkey (Alex Turner) and 1 Rascal (Miles Kane), released a brand new video today, off their recent debut album, The Age of the Understatement. Here is "Standing Next to Me": You'll notice that the dapper gents are rocking the turtleneck/blazer, Beatles-style. I'd like to add this as my non-Photoshopped contribution to Mike The Knife's post earli...

Alex Turner combines his lyrical prowess with a sexed up, sixties style sound that seems like it should be a Bond theme. Bloke from The Rascals stands on the touchlines....

The Last Shadow Puppets will finally be playing their first tour dates in the United States. They will be playing on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on October 29 and will have a couple of more dates; one in NY and the other in LA. They have not annouced any more US dates and looks unlikely because the Arctic Monkeys are going to be working on a new album. The tour dates are below. But the news...
