December 15, 2011

Well, this news certainly caught my interest for much of yesterday – the Ting Tings are set to release a new album, titled “Sounds From Nowheresville”, March 6th.

June 3, 2011

Edmonton’s punk rock extraordinaires N.N. (who I talked about back in April) just released the newest single and video from their upcoming album, scheduled to be released in July.

SXSW Band of the Day: No Joy

March 18, 2011

No Joy played the My Old Kentucky Blog showcase earlier today, and are my choice for Band of the Day. I first talked about this band back in October last year, and true to form, their set assaulted the senses today (in a good way).

Villa Cola

March 3, 2011

I received an email last night from Ranya Dube, lead vocalist for a London band named Villa Cola. I don’t always get to bands that send me music right away, but this happened to be one of those nights that I did, at least partially because I think their name is kind of kewl. Her [...]
