I See Stars Borrow From Bane For “Can We Start Again;” Announce Digital Mixtape ‘Renegades Forever’

May 13th, 2013 James Shotwell

Michigan’s I See Stars have returned to the UTG headlines with the release of a new song and the promise of more to come in the (very) near future.

“Can We Start Again” is the first song to surface from I See Stars since the 2012 release of Digital Renegade. The song, which started as a b-side, features guest vocals from Frankie Palmeri of Emmure and Mattie Montgomery, as well as lyrics from the legendary hardcore group Bane. This is not a cover per se, but rather a reinterpretation of lyrics for the purpose of inspiring a new scene …

STREAM: Andrew McMahon – “Sister Golden Hair” (America Cover)

May 3rd, 2013 James Shotwell

The release of Andrew McMahon’s solo EP, The Pop Underground, has been welcomed with open arms into our music community, and this morning the record’s b-side cover has found its way online for the world to enjoy.

“Sister Golden Hair” was originally made famous in 1975 when it became the second song from America to top the pop charts. It only sat atop Billboard for a single week, but in the decades since its debut “Sister Golden Hair” has gone on to become one of the must-love folk pop classics. McMahon’s rendition is fitting of his style, but it …

STREAM: Surfer Blood – “Slow Six”

April 22nd, 2013 Mike Sacchetti

In the wake of Record Store Day, many of the exclusive tracks that were released are now starting to surface here on the interweb. The previously unreleased, “Slow Six,” by Surfer Blood, just happens to be one of those tunes.

The track is the featured b-side on their 7″ Record Store Day release, which also includes their lead single, “Demon Dance,” from their upcoming album, Pythons. “Slow Six” is a waltz based record done right. It includes all of the heavy feedback, reverb, and guitar bends that give Surfer Blood their signature sunny, indie-pop sound.

Paramore Stream Two B-Sides From S/T

April 9th, 2013 Adrian Garza

Paramore have released their self-titled album today, and with that came the exclusive stream of the record on Rdio, included alongside a couple of b-sides that didn’t make the cut.

One of the things that many have said about the record is that there are several tracks that should’ve been b-sides, considering how much they strayed from the album’s sound. So because of that, it should be interesting to hear just what it is that made these songs not work.

Read our review of Paramore before you follow the jump to listen to “Native Tongue” and “Escape Route.”

The Rocket Summer

STREAM: The Rocket Summer – “Not Right”

January 29th, 2013 Dayton O'Connor

Are you not yet hyped for The Rocket Summer’s upcoming spring tour?

Well, maybe the final installment in Bryce Avary’s b-side singles series will finally whet your appetite.

Yes, “Not Right” is the final unreleased track culled from the Life Will Write The Words sessions and it was premiered yesterday over at Alternative Press. Don’t know why the song didn’t make it onto the album; between the Springsteen-indebted vocals and the hookiness of the track, it’s a prime cut of Rocket Summer goodness.

Head over there to check out the stream of “Not Right” right now.

STREAM/DOWNLOAD: The Weeknd – Our Love

June 10th, 2012 James Shotwell

A boring Sunday gets a bit better now as Canada’s greatest recent export delivers another soulful jam.

Loosed on the internet from the vault it has been sitting in since 2009, “Our Love” is a track recorded by The Weeknd when he was part of a music collective known as The Noise. Things are slightly different from the man we’ve come to admire these days. but the passion and potential for great things is still impossible to deny. You can stream, download, and enjoy “Our Love” after the jump.

The Weeknd has been popping up around the country and is …

STREAM/DOWNLOAD: Drake Ft. Chris Brown – Yamaha Mama (Unreleased)

May 24th, 2012 James Shotwell

Anyone glancing at the world of hiphop in the last 24 hours is bound to have notice the label war that is brewing between GOOD music and Young Money. Let’s forget about that for a second and focus on the reason we all gathered here in the first place: music.

While we are still unsure who loosed it from the vault where it was held, a shelved Drake single entitled “Yamaha Mama” has arrived for your listening pleasure. Soulja Boy eventually took the track for his own use, but I think you’ll agree with me in thinking Drizzy handles it …

Arctic Monkeys 2012

STREAM: Arctic Monkeys – Electricity (B-Side)

April 22nd, 2012 Grant Trimboli

UK rockers Arctic Monkeys are currently in the middle of a whirlwind of shows and promotion this year and it has not stopped for even a brief moment.

The group recently put out a b-side for Record Store Day, called “Electricity,” and channels a bluesy/rock vibe. Reminds us of a Queens Of The Stone Age riff. It is, without a doubt, a quality track from AM.

Listen to Arctic Monkeys’ b-side “Electricity” and view the band’s current touring dates, with The Black Keys, by heading through the link. Have you gone to see this line-up yet?

DOUBLE DAMMIT: Katy Perry Announces “Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection”

January 23rd, 2012 James Shotwell

Last week we brought you a lengthy rant about our frustrations over Katy Perry’s decision to once again release a remix of “The One The Got Away” in hopes of breaking a world record. This week, she outdoes herself once again.

Just a few short moments ago Under The Gun Review received an email announcing the March release of Teenage Dream: The Complete Confection. What is this nonsense you ask? Nothing more than a reissue of Perry’s 2010 (yes, 20-f*cking-10) album, complete remixes and her bullshit grabs for #1s released along the way.

There is no definite track list …

STREAM/DOWNLOAD: Game – Take It Off

January 23rd, 2012 James Shotwell

Game is getting a slow start on new material in 2012, but a recently liberated b-side is sure to keep fans hungry for more.

Dropped with tags over the last few days, “Take It Off” is one cut left off of Game’s 2011 effort, R.E.D. The track was produced by Jazze Pha and finds the LA rapper going in over a smooth, near-RnB beat. You can stream, download, and enjoy “Take It Off” after the jump.

Game is still busy promoting R.E.D., which we found to be pretty enjoyable. If you cannot afford another record right now, at least …
