Monday, December 12th, 2011
Hey New Jersey people. What are you doing next May? Might I suggest you pile your hair high, put on your best leopard print outfit and drive down to Asbury Park in your 1957 Chevy because you got a festival to see, ya fuckin' scumbag.

It's just been confirmed by the Asbury Park Press (via CoS)… Read More

Behold your rock music Grammy nominees

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

Well there it is. The Grammy. The award that artists strive to win and the one that bloggers and fans hate. Primarily because, as fans, we feel that OUR favorite bands deserve all the accolades and fuck the rest. But this award ceremony offers us a place to vent our frustrations and reaffirm our hatred for genres and artists we can't stand. There's gonna be a lot of hate for one Justin Bieber again...even if he isn't nominated… Read More

Watch: Foo Fighters & Joan Jett play “Bad Reputation”

Monday, November 14th, 2011

I'm just a fan of this all the way through. Not only do I own the very same Dan Armstrong Ampeg guitar that Dave Grohl plays in the video but the Foo Fighters rocked Madison Square Garden last night with Joan Jett.
Our good buddy The Audio Perv had ringside seats to this spectacle. The Foos and the legendary Joan Jett ripped through a version of Jett's "Bad Reputation" in front of a screaming NYC crowd. Watch the video up top whilst I hate myself for not going to this show.… Read More

Listen: The Prodigy remix Foo Fighters’ “White Limo”

Monday, October 17th, 2011
I'm guessing Dave Grohl was a fan of "Breathe" or "Smack My Bitch Up". Otherwise, this remix may never have happened.

NME came across a remix of the monster track, "White Limo," done by The Prodigy's Liam Howlett that's gotten the approval of the Foos. Furthermore, Howlett posted on The Prodigy's website, "heres… Read More

It's funny because the night before, I saw the Foos perform at the Izod Center in New Jersey and they… Read More
