May 20th, 2013 Mike Sacchetti Pitchfork reports, Tame Impala bassist, Nick Allbrook, played his last show on Saturday night at the Belvoir Amphitheatre in Australia. The news comes as some surprise, especially since the band’s current album, Lonerism, was listed at the top of many fan’s and critic’s lists for album of the year in 2012.
In an official statement through Tame Impala’s website, Nick Allbrook “is hopping off the Tame Impala band wagon so that he can try and screw his head back on, and make an attempt to assimilate back into society. A task the rest of us fear we will one …

May 20th, 2013 James Shotwell Seeing Brand New live has become the musical equivalent to finding a golden ticket in your Wonka bar. It is anyone’s guess when or where they will play next, and it’s rare any announcement outside of major festivals happens more than a few weeks in advance. Lucky for fans in the midwest, this is not the case today.
Starting at noon today, UTG has learned that Brand New will be announcing a handful of shows around their scheduled September appearance at Riot Fest in Chicago. PropertyOfZack already located one gig in upstate New York, and we can tell you exclusively …

May 20th, 2013 James Shotwell The passing of Suicide Silence frontman Mitch Lucker in the Fall of 2012 is still fresh in the minds of many in the music community.

Now things are beginning to quiet down and many are wondering what will come of the band without Lucker’s presence. According to a new interview with Mark Heylum it seems the answer to that question is one that remains unanswered.…
May 20th, 2013 James Shotwell Just a bit ahead of their plans to tour the country together throughout the Summer, T.I. and Lil Wayne have released a new collaborative effort titled “Wit Me.”
Backed by one of the most exciting beats so far this year, “Wit Me” plays like a lyrical contest between T.I. and Lil Wayne. Say what you will about either rapper and their most recent full length, but both emcees go in full force on this track, and I’m not sure which comes out on top. You can stream the song below and decide for yourself.
As someone who left Lil Wayne’s …
May 20th, 2013 James Shotwell If you were out living life or simply don’t give much thought to the world of late-Spring awards shows, there is a decent chance you went through yesterday without watching the Billboard Music Awards. We can admit to not watching ourselves, but this morning we were quick to review the show for any highlights worth sharing. We already told you about Miguel’s leg drop, so now it’s time to highlight the night’s best performance.
No one could have foreseen the success Macklemore and Ryan Lewis have found with their hit “Thrift Shop.” It’s the most popular hip hop song in …

May 20th, 2013 James Shotwell The widow of Wu-Tang Clan member Ol’ Dirty Bastard has filed a cease and desist order against Rock The Bells to stop a planned hologram performance from the late rapper.
Icelene Jones, who spoke exclusively with HipHopDX, claims she was never approached about the performance even though she alone has the rights to approve whether or not someone can use the likeness of her late husband. While this may seem like a move to stop the production altogether, that does not seem to be what Jones is after. In fact, Jones may even back the idea, saying in a …

May 20th, 2013 James Shotwell The world of rock and roll is up in arms this morning over news the Stone Temple Pilots may have finally found a fitting replacement for troubled frontman Scott Weiland.
Last night, STP made a surprise appearance at KROQ’s Weenie Roast music festival in Irvine, California fronted by Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington. The group ran through their hits, all with Bennington behind the mic, and this morning a new single featuring his vocals has found its way online.

May 20th, 2013 Brian Lion During his performance of the silky smooth “Adorn” during Sunday night’s Billboard Music Awards, pop crooner Miguel took a leap of faith across the mini pit filled with fans aplenty, and upon his less than ideal landing, he gave one woman a stylish boot to the head and graced another with an Atomic Leg Drop. Oh yeeeaaaah, brother!
Luckily no one was seriously injured. Miguel suavely continued on post mistake and will hopefully learn to take more factors into consideration during rehearsal next time.
got caught up in the moment, thank goodness Khyati is okay
