I’m not even sure I would go and see them, but I’m still pissed about Gnarls Barkley stopping in Ak only on their NZ tour. What the hell as Auckland got that we don’t? They can have the Chilli Peppers concerts, but having Gnarls Barkley (and The Rapture) in Wellington makes sense…well to me at [...]

ahhh. Record company hype. I’m a consumer! I got very excited when I found this on youtube. Nice little teaser for the upcoming material from the new QOTSA album ‘Era Vulgaris’. Grrrh.

And due to such circumstances, I can forgive myself for missing probably the best ever musical performance on Sesame Street. Thanks to the wonders of youtube, we can now all experience it. [...]

While still fitting within the ‘neo-Radiohead’ sound that Bloc Party carved with ‘Silent Alarm’, ‘A Weekend in the City’ is a sophomore effort that is likely to garner more mainstream success than their debut.
