Entertainment Weekly recently did a special 1,000th issue. In it, they picked the 100 New classics in Film, Televison and Music. More than one blogger went through the various lists and added their two cents. This is something I wanted to do, so I was inspired by Johnny Bacardi, who in turn was...

You know, I just can't put my finger on it, but I've always held a bizarre fascination with Brit-rock. It all began with my exposure to the early days of MTV at a very young age. Before this new medium shaped the music landscape for the 1980's, America was living in a post-disco and classic rock...
Marketing experts in the UK are wondering exactly how our King of Shaves Azor can take on Gillette Fusion with one millionth-squillionth of the spend. Well, one thing's for sure, it's not by doing things conventionally (doh!). And it's not by having a group of crocked or waning champions on our...
THE INSIDER: SARAH "ULTRAGRRRL" LEWITINN She says she'll know within 30 seconds of hearing a song if the band's amazing... And she’ll be right. Though just 26, Sarah Lewitinn, a.k.a. Ultragrrrl, has already championed bands including My Chemical Romance, Interpol, Franz Ferdinand, and the Killers...
What ten songs would you put on a summertime mix? OOooooo! I like this one! I dare not justify, because that would be far too hard. Instead, I shall list them and let you ponder! Maybe I'll put up some mp3s when I get home. Each file is linked to a last.fm mp3 page or a YouTube music video. Enjoi!...
Våknet akkurat til Trouble - coldplay på radioen. Personlig så er jeg ikke sånn grusomt fan av coldplay, syns bandet er så sinnsykt kjedelig, Denne pusemusikken går igjen i hver eneste sang. Jeg må si jeg ville blitt imponert om Chris Martin fikk en åpenbaring for å tenke litt utenfor...
I thought i'd put out some music reviews... First off, Say Anything. This band has some crazy lyrics, but the throaty singing of their lead singer Max Bemis(yes, his real name..lol - no need to remind me of my immaturity, but it's funny. lol) causes their band to stand out. However, many people have...
It's strange that whenever I get really busy and really energetic, I post all the time. I guess the time will come when I won't pay attention to anything for months. Not much happening really. I went to the Beat Book Shop in Boulder and got a copy of Soul on Ice by Elridge Cleaver. It's a really old...
Keep an eye on: The Low Miffs - Earl Grey Thanks to Tiger I got to listen to this lot from Glasgow. Now it would be too easy to compare them to famous Scottish countrymen like Josef K, Orange Juice or Franz Ferdinand so I am not going to do that. The Low Miffs are unsigned but have had two singles...

Famous people have to die just like us regular folk. Well, almost. The richer and more famous you are, the greater the chance you will have people hanging around while you breathe your last. Historians. Media types. Spoiled brat kids looking to cash in on your fame. A personal nurse who has hated...
This morning, seemingly, I found myself singing "Well do ya do ya realy wanna" so so many times and I was like, "Which band sings this song aa?" oh, FRANZ FERDINAND, yeah? Whatever happened to those guys. So highlight of the day? Ma and Abah came to school for the Runding Cara thingy. I'm pretty...
Muito a desejar, mais um ano em que não hei-de ir. Cartaz: aqui. Seria capaz de ver Franz Ferdinand e David Fonseca. Mas considerando que os FF ainda não lançaram nada novo (pois não? deixa cá ver! A wiki não engana, novo álbum só lá para final 2008 ou mesmo inícios 2009), não acho que...

We took the train to Konopiste where Franz Ferdinand lived for awhile. It's an old palace which the Arch Duke bought and lived in until his assassination. Now it's a huge museum which apparently hosts some 300,000 stuffed animals, all shot by the Duke. It's more than ten a day. Unfortunately we...
It does not cease to amaze me that the Myspace-dependent batch of teens are stil around. I had my peak of logging-on-every-other-minute-to-see-if-I-had-a-new-comment in 2005, I think, and this ate me up until about July 2007. I think that above everything else, I was a bit frustrated because I had...
What do music and veggies have in common? Not a whole lot except that I like to listen to music while making veggies, (or anything for that matter). I’m also hoping that music makes veggies more exciting. Kind of like how I had a Prof that would add random sound effects into his Powerpoint...
I know that more musicians are stepping into the digital age....Franz Ferdinand have used myspace to a definite advantage, as have many other bands. But Travis? It's...odd to me. *whine*
