Friday, January 21st, 2011

I'm giving away my turntable! With Record Store Day coming in April, my turntable needs to be upgraded. But rather than throw my old one away or give it to someone who won't appreciate it, I'd rather give it to one of you!
So watch the video up top to see how you can win my turntable and play all your own vinyl records courtesy of the RiO!B. Read More

But why should I have all the fun? Let's give some of you a chance to see what I'm talking about.

Thursday, January 20th, 2011

With all the hype Soundgarden built up in 2010, you would think that they would try and keep it going right into 2011. But that doesn't seem to be the case as Chris Cornell has announced a solo acoustic "Songbook" tour in April. Not that that's a bad thing!
Cornell will perform songs from throughout his career with Soundgarden, Temple Of The Dog, Audioslave and his solo career on the tour. It kicks off on April 1st in Austin, TX and will end on… Read More

Watch: She & Him – “Don’t Look Back”

Thursday, January 20th, 2011

If there's one thing I love more than Zooey Deschanel...it's multiple Zooey Deschanels!
Which is why this music video for She & Him's "Don't Look Back" is a dream come true for me. The clip, which is based around 1950's promo films for the "modern" era, features Deschanel cloning herself and singing backup on her own vocals while M. Ward lays down a dancey guitar rhythm. Oh, if only the '50s were really like this.  Read More
