UTG STREAM: Grey Season – ‘Troilus’ EP

Last Sunday I was sitting at my desk working on a story when my phone rang. Brimming with excitement on the other end of the line was Craig Silva, a friend whom I run a small label with called Antique Records here in Boston. “Are you near a radio,” he asked in a frenzy, “tune into Harvard’s radio station as fast as you can or you may miss it!” I ran to the nearest stereo in my apartment and quickly spun the dial to the small, student-run station. When I got there I heard a group I had until that …

All Time Low

Members Of Mayday Parade & All Time Low Visit Boston Victim In Hospital

It’s acts of kindness like this that make fans love and appreciate their favorite bands even more. An eighteen year old senior was supposed to go to this year’s ‘Spring Fever’ tour. Instead of going to the show though she was at the hospital recovering from the bombings at the Boston Marathon.

Some Members of Mayday Parade and All Time Low decided to go visit her in the hospital since she couldn’t see them perform at Tsongas Arena. This story was covered by the Boston Herald, you can read a snippet of the article below and then check out the …

PAIN AND GAIN

BRING BACK THE 80s: Mark Wahlberg Would Reunite With The Funky Bunch To Benefit Boston Bombing Victims

Last month, TMZ gained a tiny of bit of traction running a story that The Funky Bunch would be willing to reunite with actor Mark Wahlberg in the future if he so desired. We didn’t run the story at the time because, to be honest, we didn’t necessarily find it surprising that a group who never took off without Marky Mark would be willing to welcome him back with open arms. That was, of course, before Wahlberg hinted that it could actually happen.

Leaving an appearance in Virginia earlier today, TMZ spoke with the Pain & Gain star briefly …

Fall Out Boy 2013

Fall Out Boy To Donate Boston Arena Date Proceeds For Bombing Victims

Fall Out Boy‘s highly anticipated comeback album Save Rock And Roll was released at midnight EST today, April 16. Normally, this would be a time of celebration. Instead, because of the events that took place early on April 15 the feeling in the air isn’t upbeat.

The band has decided that they will be donating all the proceeds from their upcoming arena show in Boston for all of those who were affected by the bombing tragedy. You can read what the band had to say by checking below the jump.

UTG LIST: 5 Must-See Films Of The Boston Underground Film Festival

Since its inception, the Boston Underground Film Festival has been the go-to destination in New England for all things weird, scary, strange, or extreme in the world of film.

Kicking off this Wednesday at The Brattle Theater, the fifteenth annual Boston Underground Film Festival is once again offering cinephiles a chance to experience more than a dozen film oddities that may otherwise never screen in New England. We are well aware of …

Vanna 2013

STREAM: Vanna – “Please Stay”

Vanna‘s tenure on Every Time I Die‘s national headlining tour may be coming to a close, but by no means does that mean that things will be slowing down for the band. The Boston-based alternative hardcore act will be releasing The Few And Far Between through Artery Recordings next Tuesday on March 19.

The band has just put up a new song stream of “Please Stay” on their AbsolutePunk.net profile. Considering how hard-hitting and straight forward the group has always sounded, the song is a slight departure that still manages to take no prisoners.

Desaparecidos

WATCH: Desaparecidos Cover Joyce Manor’s “Constant Headache” Live

Yes, many of us bow at the feet of Conor Oberst in reverence of his various musical projects and his formative contributions to that Saddle Creek sound. Fortunately, it looks like Oberst isn’t above taking a few cues from one of the bands that he influenced.

Oberst recently resurrected his rocking and rollicking side-project Desaparecidos in order to put out a few incendiary singles and, subsequently, tour in support of said singles. Word of an East Coast tour back in November also brought the news that scrappy West Coast pop punks Joyce Manor would be providing support. A few …

Tegan And Sara

STREAM: Tegan And Sara – “When You Were Mine” (Prince Cover)

Pop singing-songwriting twin sister duo Tegan and Sara have been killing it lately with their covers of deepish cut classic rock songs. Did you hear the pair’s version of The Rolling Stones’ “Fool To Cry” that they did for the soundtrack to the second season of Girls? Tis lovely.

Their proclivity for mining the sonic gems of the past hasn’t stopped with the works of Jagger and company. During a recent tour stop at the Beacon Theatre in New York City, the Quin sisters covered Prince’s “When You Were Mine”. Off his 1990 album Dirty Mind, the lovelorn …
