Up top, you can check out the brand new music video from the band for their single, "Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)," from their Grammy winning album The Suburbs.
But that's not all. You COULD watch the video up top OR you could get interactive with the video. Lemme explain. If you click right over here you get to turn… Read More

Arcade Fire, Coldplay headlining Austin City Limits

Tuesday, May 17th, 2011

I am a giant fan of Austin, TX especially after this year's phenomenal SXSW festival. The city breathes music and is the perfect place to catch a show. Which is why I'm this close to buying a plane ticket and heading back down there for Austin City Limits.
It runs from September 14-16 and the headliners include Arcade Fire, Coldplay, My Morning Jacket, Stevie Wonder and Kanye West. On top of that, artists like Fleet Foxes, TV on the Radio, Chromeo,… Read More

Watch: LCD Soundsystem’s final show at Madison Square Garden

Sunday, April 3rd, 2011

LCD Soundsystem will be a bittersweet band for me from now on. My first time seeing them was at Terminal 5 in NYC but it was two nights before their final show at Madison Square Garden on April 2nd. So while I enjoyed myself thoroughly at the concert, I realize it will be the last time I see them (until the reunion that is bound to happen 3-5 years from now but we'll speculate later.)
But thanks to the people over at Pitchfork (there's something… Read More
