Matt Jaffe and the Distractions is a young rock trio based in San Francisco, CA. The group formed after Talking Heads guitarist Jerry Harrison discovered Matt performing alone at an open mic and was immediately compelled to produce the boy's music. In an effort to bring their studio creations to live audiences, Matt called on the teenage rhythm section force that is Alex Coltharp and Sammie

Morrissey on Young The Giant YOUNG THE GIANT Having suffered with relish so much yes-but-no new music, I could break down with happiness at the new - debut - CD by Young The Giant. I will be kneeling with gratitude on a hardwood floor for many years to come. It is the whole thing ... it is the perfect tone ... and Sameer's voice is unbreakable. If there is any justice in the world (and we all

Always been a big fan of Rihanna, she has great style and always great music to dance to while drunk at a club. Check out her latest video which apparently has pissed off the Parents Television Council who think the video is to violent for tv. I just find that funny, the Parents Television Council really just a big joke. Check out the video below

Butterfly Explosion are a band from Ireland that blend powerful spiraling music with delicate vocals to form rich soundscapes of beautiful melodies, gliding between moments of ethereal dreampop and explosive sonic bliss. The debut album 'LOST TRAILS' is released February 2010 on Irish label Revive Records. 'Closer', the first single, has been receiving extensive airplay from Ireland's leading

This is not the "Ain't no other man" stuff you've heard and been annoyed at on the radio, this is far removed from the synth and pop that pop music has today. - It has more in common with most indie music than it does pop music! Why the

Drew Danburry just released his new album on February 9th, meaning it's in stores now! Drew works hard at promoting his music, and he's definitely worth supporting. I'm a fan of supporting musicians who aren't raking in $$$ due to corporate sellout and big sponsorships, because the little guys make good music too! Take a listen to the sample track here, then make one of the 3 choices: 1)

Chromeo is a Montreal based electrofunk duo composed of P-Thugg (Patrick Gemayel) on keyboards, synthesizers, and talk box, and Dave 1 (David Macklovitch) on guitar and lead vocals. The two childhood friends jokingly describe themselves as "the only successful Arab/Jewish partnership since the dawn of human culture." This track is a free download from the band. I haven't listened to the original
