All of the music on this blog is put up here to promote the artists who have created it and the music scene in general. If you dig the music and want to hear more of it you should support the artists and buy the music / go to their concerts / wear their t-shirts.
A real LP with artwork and cd/vinyl is cooler anyway than a mp3!

As Them Crooked Vultures inch closer to the November 17th release of their debut, the supergroup is getting more generous with its recorded music. Today, TCV dropped a new track, “Mind Eraser, No Chaser,” on iTunes as a free download. It’s another heavy gem from Josh Homme, Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones, kicking off with two counter-riffing guitar parts before a thumping bassline and Grohl’s heavy hitting jump into the mix.
Founded in Summer 2007 John‘s Revolution already opened for Avril Lavigne (in front of 7000 people) and played festivals with NOFX, Guadalajara and Comeback Kids. The band also played at the wonderful Britpop-Club „Weekender Club“ in Innsbruck (Austria). After lots of touring, the debut album „Today Your Love, Tomorrow The World“ was released in May 2009 and is available at iTunes and CD Baby.
Rocking in a very british style. Loud, overdriven, open chords, a few liquid guitar lines in support of that melody. The main influences are drawn from the 60‘s and the mid 90‘s. John Lennon would be keen in playing the triangle.
Director Sam Taylor-Wood’s John Lennon biopic, Nowhere Boy, premiered at the London Film Festival recently and I’m kind of surprised that there hasn’t been more hype about this feature film depicting the early life of a music icon. I mean, it’s Beatlemania again, right?
Well, we were a bit underwhelmed by the few photo stills floating around and the trailer, which just hit the Internet, reveals a surprisingly lighthearted feel to the flick, so perhaps it isn’t meant to be taken so seriously.
John Lennon’s actual voice, as taken from interview recordings, narrates a few cuts in the trailer and will presumably narrate the film as well. This is a nice touch, à la Kurt Cobain: About a Son, but it also creates a strange tension between the glossy look to the footage and the weathered historical document of the audio recordings.
