a while back we wrote that alcoholic faith mission was the only band you needed to listen to. After playing with them, and experiencing their utter danish awesomeness in person, capslock can vouch that this is still true. although they’re back in europe now, they documented the us part of their tour with an awesome [...]

hear this: alcoholic faith mission.
So…this is probably the only band you should listen to right now. Not because they have interesting faces, or because they are Danish kids dallying around Brooklyn. Not even because they recorded their first album in a Copenhagen apartment lit by candlelight. You must adore Alcoholic Faith Mission because they make music that no one [...]

jukebox the ghost takes on sweden
dc/phili-based band jukebox the ghost made it across the pond and partied with some dirty euros. their upbeat songs and playful lyrics have created quite the following that has stretched all the way to sweden. quite fantastic for a couple of dudes who went to g-dubs. thus, i danced to their songs all night, drank [...]

we kiss goodbye and drink up some hours before the dawn.
because if nuclear winter hit and your lover was stuck in a different underground missile silo and you could only listen to one song while you were broken-hearted it would absolutely have to be this.

hear this: savoir adore.
Last night dc’s u streeters were in a jovial sort of mood, and made a decent showing at the velvet lounge. They even danced a little. Okay, maybe more of a sway/bop, but it was effort. And some of that swaying was to the lovely, layered, lush (not the drunk kind) brooklyn-based band: Savoir Adore. [...]

it’s blitz down under.
Due to the most rad hanukkah present ever, I was able to see karen o. and the yeah yeah yeahs serenade australia at festival hall in melbourne. We got there early enough for the opening band, whose name I have forgotten…mainly because they looked and sounded as if they were throwing up on stage. Luckily, [...]

hear this: last tide.
DC-based last tide played at the r&r hotel last weekend, and I don’t remember much except that the singer had a bad-ass lip ring, the drummer had nice hair, I was inexplicably wearing a mask, it was really cold outside and the volume was up so loud I went upstairs to get away from the [...]

MTV make way
Picture this: a room packed full of drunk twenty-something-year-olds dancing with a purpose; to make one awesome music video. Insane partiers and Pittsburgh favorites, the Hood Gang enlisted the help of their partners in crime, i.e. their fans to come together for one party-hard super dancy sweaty awesome mess for their new music video. There [...]
