your head's not right Blog - Bands on tour

• The Vocalist and The Bassist

  Seems like Albert is not the only Stroke being productive during the band's time-off. Julian Casablancas has collaborated with Santogold and N.E.R.D. and came out with 'My Drive Thru', a track commissioned by Converse to commemorate the centennial of the Chuck Taylor. Coupled with with a catchy chiming bell/guitar riff,...(read full post)

• Cold Youth

  I was thrilled to see Cut Copy getting so much hype with their sophomore album In Ghost Colours, and I just can't enough of them, so this track is like a cold lemonade in the hot summer. An additional bonus track on the UK release of In Ghost Colours, Cold...(read full post)

  When our all-time favourite The Strokes went on hiatus, Albert Hammond Jr. is here to please the eager fans. He proceeded on with his sophomore album after a mild success with his solo debut Yours To Keep. New album ¿Cómo Te Llama? is set to be released on 7th July,...(read full post)

  Artists mentioned:
  • Andy ON TOUR (US)
• The Dirty Secrets

  One month ago, “When is the debut album being released?” I asked Jarrah McCleary, vocalist/keyboardist of The Dirty Secrets when they were playing in my university.

• Big Day Out @ Claremont Showgrounds, Perth, 03.02.08

  As you may already know, I always have a thing for Australia electro bands. Take Midnight Juggernauts or The Presets for examples. I still feel bummed for missing Cut Copy's live when I was back in Perth. After three lovely tracks 'Hearts On Fire', 'So Haunted' and 'Light and Music'...(read full post)

  Artists mentioned:
  • Day Out ON TOUR (US/UK)
• MGMT

  Four years of commerce study in college, I hated doing management. A band named The Management would not have intrigued me, it sounds just like one of those bands emerged from the garage rock ashes in early 2000s. But MGMT is cool, like the new breed of band names without...(read full post)
