Since both of these bands are fronted by Damon Albarn, I figured I’d kill two birds with one stone. Hey, I’m a lazy shit and midterms are this week. Cut me some slack. Anyways, I’ve been less than pro-Gorillaz in the past year. I dug Plastic Beach, but the stuff that followed afterward varied between that … Read more

In a world where there are hundreds of different languages, double standards and double meanings, it seems that there are only a few things the world understands collectively. One of those things is music. People, no matter what part of the world they are from, understand the simpleness of a melody and what it’s supposed … Read more

Nowadays, we’re lucky if we get a couple of decent music videos. Since MTV is much more interested in showing the Jeresy Shore cast pass around VD than music videos, not a lot of them get financed and most of the ones that do are shitty. But there are a few that are pretty damn … Read more

Despite popular/stupid belief, a lot of good things are coming from the collapse of the music industry. It’s like yard work, which sucks too, but after you pull all the weeds (or was that Lady Gaga’s hair?), everything looks better. That’s kind of the way things are going down now.

That was one hell of an album back in high school. Different from anything on the radio, yet it was on the radio and people couldn’t ignore … Read more
