Electric President – The Violent Blue
Remember that FOX primetime soap opera drama, The OC? Of course you do, who did not care about Seth and Summer that first season? I am also going to suppose you remember when the television show tried to gain quite a bit of street cred with that faux-indie community and...

The Happy Hollows Release New Music Video
From the brilliantly zany minds of The Happy Hollows and the animated filmmaking talents of producer/director Ryan Reichenfeld comes a perfect specimen of the state of music videos today.

A lot of music tends to sound the same these days. Even if you happen to stumble upon something that stumps you for a moment or two, you’ll usually be able to quickly identify a pattern. The band with three guitarists. The band that does harmonies. The acoustic guitar guy....

Have a Nice Life – 2/28/10 – The Stone – New York, NY
This is fucking hardcore. Armor pieced together in stolen days and desperate nights. Chinked. Torn. Tatters of the New England winter. Four friends. New mountain men with amplifiers in a room not half the size of them. Their sound is a tower. A wave. A rogue dog with bloodied lips...
