We like rock music more than you. It's just the way it is…

Rise Against has released a music video in support of the It Gets Better campaign to raise awareness about bullying. "Make it Stop" appears on Rise Against's great new album, Endgame, which is in stores right now. Frontman Tim McIlrath says that the topic of bullying hasn't really been addressed in the rock scene saying, "I decided to create the song as a response, and when I discovered the It Gets Better campaign and [It Gets Better Project co-founder] Dan Savage's commitment to such an important and concise… Read More

But, according to IndieWire, this is no biopic. The movie is called Greetings From Tim Buckley and is being marketed as a father-son drama. Here's the quick… Read More

There's quite a bit of touring happening this summer with music that'll get you pumped and have your adrenaline rushing through the roof of the venue you're at. But if you need something to slow you down a bit, you should definitely consider this outing this coming September.
Fleet Foxes and The Walkmen are joining forces and singing their sweet tunes on a joint tour throughout the U.S. starting on September 6th in Seattle, WA. It all comes to a close on September 29th… Read More

Monday night had some pretty good late-night performances. Colbert had Bon Iver and David Letterman invited Eddie Vedder and his ukelele, Clarence, to come on play a track from Vedder's new release, Ukelele Songs.
It's cool to see Vedder sitting alone on stage with an instrument that, for the Pearl Jam frontman, isn't one that necessarily shows the power that he has when he's playing songs like "Even Flow" or "Betterman" in front of thousands of people but still commands your attention. Vedder is one… Read More

It's like a movie...but you're not entirely sure of the plot yet because the story has yet to evolve. That's kinda how I would describe Trivium's video for the title track off their forthcoming album, In Waves, which is out on August 9th. It's nicely shot and the song is a kick ass track from beginning to end but the band saves themselves from making you scratch your head going "WTF?!" to this video by adding "To Be Continued..." at the end of the clip. Apparently there's more to the story of the band walking… Read More

You see all those names on that album cover? That would make for one hell of a festival, wouldn't it? Well this is the closest you'll get to this collection of musicians all at once and that's by streaming the forthcoming album, Rave on Buddy Holly, over at NPR's website.

Is this the cool thing to do now in rock? Come out with your own novelty board game in the hopes that people will actually play board games again because your band put it out? Metallica just released its own version of Monopoly and now it looks like AC/DC have jumped on that train.
Blabbermouth reports that August… Read More
