Details are sparse at the moment, but Revelation Records has announced that they will be releasing a discography from JUDGE on June 21st, with one from BOLD following shortly thereafter. Both bands have material previously released on Revelation that are long out of print. This news is hot on heels of BOLD’s annoucement last week of them reuniting for some shows, and possibly putting together a new full-length.

- Alright… if GORILLA BISCUITS gets a discography release too, I’m officially going to need a new pair of pants.

A second rate version of an already bad band (THE KILLERS?) should be left alone. The only band worth listening to in the dance pop genre is still HEAD AUTOMATICA.

…but THE BRAVERY’s track, “Public Service Annoucement” has to be one of the stupidest things that I have heard in recent memory. The band’s full-length is fun, but in the context of what Island has spent producing and marketing this thing, I’m glad it cost me nothing more than a nice lunch.

HOT HOT HEAT’s new album, Elevator, can now be heard in its entirety as part of MTV.com’s The Leak. Listen to the album, which hits stores on April 5th, here.

- I just got this in the mail yesterday, and gave it a listen this morning. First impression is pretty good – the band isn’t lying when they say that they went ahead with the intention of writing a “”bold pop release.”" More than a few songs on here are potential summer hit singles…

The last memory I have of my beloved car before it was stolen in 2002 was driving home late at night on the Capital Beltway, stuck in a traffic jam, listening to KILLSWITCH ENGAGE’s newly released “Alive or Just Breathing,” at an unfathomable volume, with the two front windows rolled completely down. Although I’d love [...]

Annasthesia is a concept album that I just recieved and had the pleasure of seeing live performed by NATHAN JOHNSON and his CINEMATIC UNDERGROUND. The album reminds me of Amnesiac era RADIOHEAD with a concept feel. The whole thing was recorded using one mic and THE CINEMATIC UNDERGROUND is composed mostly of the family Johnson. NATHAN JOHNSON also recently did the score for his cousin’s film “Brick”, which is being wide released by Focus Features soon. Please give this a listen, it blew me away. Read More + Comment (0) »
