Mama says Satan's got a heart of goldPapa says Jesus got a heart of stone, yeahEveryone says I got a heart of stoneBut Satan says I got a heart of gold For some reason metal has been on my mind all day. Maybe because i was searching for metal festivals this summer and came across Sounds of the Underground, which led me to Ferret Music's site and wished they had some free downloads. I was going to do Century Media,...
Posting this actually makes me sad and happy at the same time, considering I just sold all my records, except like 5 that I really loved, or just haven’t sold yet. But thanks to my man DJ C-Town, who at the time worked at Amoeba in L.A., grabbed “Won’t Bother Me” by The Glass and just said, “Buy this shit.” I did, and played it over and over and over again… So the news of them coming out with a...
Team GC loves L.A. almost as much as Internet radio. That’s why, even on the day of Internet silence to Save Net Radio, the Little Radio studio welcomed its new friends and favorite underage band Four Fifty One to come in and chat about their self-titled 2006 EP, being on Veronica Mars, exile from their home base in Baltimore, and of course, why Internet radio is awesome. Drew, Chris, Marquis, Andy and Yanni were pretty tired from the aftermath of...
Multi-platinum rockers Silverchair: singer/guitarist/songwriter Daniel Johns, drummer Ben Gillies and bassist Chris Joannou-is back and stronger than ever, as evidenced on their fifth album, Young Modern, due out July 24 on Eleven: a music company, in association with Warner Music Group. The trio will celebrate the release with performances of the album's explosive first single, "Straight Lines," on "The Tonight Show With Jay Leno" on Tuesday, July 10 and "Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson" on Thursday, July...
Now that "Jack White" is officially Jack White and the man known as John Gillis is lost forever, we have to accept him on certain terms. He's now the demanding rock star who is intent on bringing his old ways, Southern gentleman demeanor, and "aw, shucks" mannerisms to the toppermost regions of the earth. He'll do interviews, granted you don't ask him about this, that, and the other (management will gladly provide you with a list of guidelines—don't even think...

I have to say, I'm not a fan of the phenomenon known as "guy from band XXX is DJing at a club—pay money and come!" (Not officially known as that, but let's call it that for now). Wow, you mean the guy from Interpol is playing records at a club? Who really cares? That said, if the guys from The Bees were DJing somewhere near me, I would go down there in an Irish minute. These guys seem to know...
Along with The National, Midlake is one of those bands that music lovers dream about. Not dream about in the way that you'd have a poster of Tim Smith with his shirt off, a la David Cassidy circa 1978. But more in the way that there is so much terrible music and all the bands that actually mean something are either dead or over the hill. So when our generation gets something that we can hopefully talk about in 2042,...
The Walkmen announced via Myspace bulletin that they have a free download available on their site. As it turns out, they are just finishing up a few dates, the last being 6/28 in Calgary, but still found some time to do some good ol' basement recordings. As the band stated, "We also have a new song that we just recorded in Paul's basement and really liked. Since it isn't exactly in line with the other stuff we are doing now,...
