Carolina Rebellion, A Rain Or Shine Event, Cancelled Due To Rain

Maybe this is going to seem like an attack piece of music journalism, but sometimes you just have to look at the facts and point out the idiocy. Carolina Rebellion, a North Carolina rock festival whose first listed piece of general information is “This Festival is a Rain or Shine Event“, cancelled the final day of the festival yesterday due to rain.

The festival made a post on Facebook saying “Due to inclement weather continuing throughout the night, we have to cancel the remainder of Carolina Rebellion 2013. This decision was made to ensure your safety as

Bumbershoot Announces Lineup, Death Cab For Cutie Will Play ‘Transatlantacism’ To Headline

Seattle’s music and art festival, Bumbershoot, has been going on since the 1970s, but only recently have its headlining acts stepped up their game. The festival, which takes place August 31 through September 2, is headlined by fun., Death Cab For Cutie, MGMT, Kendrick Lamar, Heart, and Tegan & Sara – certainly, nothing to scoff at.

Now it seems Ben Gibbard is on a 2003 kick. First he got The Postal Service back together, and now, at Bumbershoot, he plans to play 2003′s Transatlantacism all the way through during their set. If only I could get fun. …

WATCH & MOSH: Heaven Shall Burn Perform “Endzeit” At Impericon Festival

The promoters behind Impericon Festival have released the first full live video from this year’s madness and trust us, it’s a doozy.

German metalheads Heaven Shall Burn graced a crowd of thousands at Impericon Festival with a blistering performance of “Endzeit.” The song is taken from the group’s 2008 effort, Iconoclast (pt. 1 the final resistance), and offers a face-melting sampler of everything the group has to offer. The crowd goes crazy for the performance, and we think you will too. You can view the footage at the end of this post.

Hot 97 Summer Jam 2013 Festival Village Stage Lineup Announced

Hot 97′s Summer Jam concert is one of the most highly-anticipated urban radio events of the Summer. The lineup for the main stage of this year’s event is being held under tight wraps, but early this morning the lineup for the Village Stage found its way online.

We can only make guesses about who will be standing main stage at Summer Jam 2013, but after a look at the Village Stage it’s hard to imagine it be anyone who isn’t currently topping the charts with platinum selling singles. In fact, some of the people on the Village stage can almost …

MOVIE REVIEW: I Declare War

Film: I Declare War
Directors: Robert Wilson and Jason Lapeyre
Starring: Siam Yu, Gage Munroe

While having an original idea for a film is one thing, bringing that idea to life in a way that is viable to large audiences is a completely different story. I Declare War is one of the few films that succeeds in both these areas, though many may argue it’s not a film for everyone, and hopefully it finds the attention it deserves in the months to come.

When bringing an original idea to life, it’s important to cut to the chase as fast as …
