Brooklyn's They Might Be Giants have built a career on writing music frequently described as eccentric, quirky and unusual. At this point, however, perhaps their most unusual quality is their remarkable durability -- 25 years together and still going strong. The two Johns (Linnell and Flansburgh) have extended their creative range from writing and recording albums (four million plus sold), to collaborating with artists as...

Great interview. I love TMBG. One of the best live acts I have ever seen.
zampaglione:
Hi guys! This was my interview..it was really fun to do and Flansburgh was, of course, awesome--so articulate and charming. I wish I could've included even more stories! miao!! (I like that cat smiley...is that secret code or just adorable? Or BOTH? )

This week will see the release of Revolver, the latest cinematic neckbreaker from 39-year-old British helmer Guy Ritchie. His previous gangster films, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and its follow-up, Snatch, were hailed as major events on both sides of the pond upon their release, and today...

This week will see the release of Revolver, the latest cinematic neckbreaker from 39-year-old British helmer Guy Ritchie. His previous gangster films, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and its follow-up, Snatch, were hailed as major events on both sides of the pond upon their release, and today are seen as cornerstones of a new film genre -- the heightened-reality, super-kinetic gangster film, in which...

Revolver's getting terrible reviews. Ritchie's lack of ability is finally catching up with him; I guess you can't be a hyper-stylized Martin Scorsese wannabe all your life and still be successful. Although he'll always be popular with popped-collar douchebag tools, which can't hurt him financially.

It's a good movie, if a little weird.

Worth the trip.

In Los Angeles, the music industry is more than just a business. For some it's a game, a l'enfant terrible experiment of intoxicating proportions. For others, it's an asylum. It's a labyrinth of lunatics, all lost amongst themselves and all scrambling for something to protect them from the deafening roar of self-destruction. All too often drug addiction becomes the mute button. As Motley Crue's Nikki...

So The RHCP are irrelevant but a solo project by a former 80's hair band is?

You know it's NOT 1991 anymore.

I consider a NYT bestselling book and hit record as relevant. But that's just me.

Gram Rabbit is not your average band. They're not writing the kind of boring, junk pop standards that you hear on the radio or see performed on the ubiquitous "Late Night" shows. Instead, the Joshua Tree-based band is constantly striving to push the boundaries of rock, pop, and electronic music....

The Hives are quite possibly one of Swedens loudest exports -- an emergency broadcast of rock proportions that first ricocheted across the Scandinavian hillsides in the early 90s, waking those asleep at their radio dials and commanding attention, every polished-loafer shimmy-shuffle of the way....

The Hives are, quite possibly, one of Swedens loudest exports -- an emergency broadcast of rock proportions that first ricocheted across the Scandinavian countryside in the early 90s, waking those asleep at their radio dials and commanding attention, every polished-loafer shimmy-shuffle of the way. Hailing from the small town of Fagersta, the band dove into the mainstream with the album Veni Vidi Vicious, just in...

Man, I love The Hives.
alfaduetto:
Booptlegged all the Hives that Limewire had. Surprisingly fresh retro. I shall be ordering a complete Hives portfolio from Amazon soon. I only steal things until I decide I like it, then I make BMI less irritable. My Mustang CD is particularly fond of 'cause I wanna.

Discovered in 2000 by Sharon Osbourne only a few shows after forming, OTEP was asked on the spot to perform at Ozzfest. The band was unsigned during its first stint on the tour, but made such an impression that it was invited to play two more years. After releasing two strong albums on Capitol Records...

After releasing two strong albums on Capitol Records and enjoying cult-like fanaticism, OTEP is back with a brand...

Otep is one of the most powerful musicians I've ever seen. If you're ever lucky enough to catch her live show I guarentee you WILL be blown away.

Chris May didn't find tattooing, it found him. Perhaps the planets were aligned or the excreted pheromones of two locusts fucking sent a deer on a rampage, 100 miles from a 19 -year-old kid looking to get a tattoo of a flaming ant. Probably not. One thing is certain, May considers himself very lucky....
