Whether it's our favorite band getting passed over, a movie we think should win doesn't win or somebody gets real drunk and runs on stage to make an ass of themselves, we'll find something to discuss. But the American Music Awards are a complete waste of an award show. They're almost as bad as the People's Choice awards.

We got ourselves a doozy for the RiO! Band of the Week. They hail from Los Angeles and they're known as Drugstore Fanatics.
Dark, moody rock with a Nine Inch Nails feel to it, Drugstore Fanatics also claim A Perfect Circle, Tool and The Mars Volta to be their major influences. It's safe to say that they actually tap into those influences as opposed to listing them just to sound cool. You can hear it on their song "Hangman" which is currently streaming on… Read More
