Papa Roach

Papa Roach were good once. They used to be original nu-metal that set them apart. They have recently turned into just another mediocre emo band. Their best album is definately Infest, and their best songs are Thrown Away and Between Angels and Insects.

Red Hot Chili Peppers

Hope you stocked up on blood, sugar, sex and magik, because the Red Hot Chili Peppers are off the menu.

In an interview with Rolling Stone lead singer Anthony Kiedis says that their last album Stadium Arcadium and subsequent tour may be their last, at least for some time.

In regard to the tour: "We were all emotionally and mentally zapped at the end of that run.”

“Cooler heads prevailed and the discussion at the end of our last tour was, ‘Let’s not do anything Red Hot Chili Peppers related for a minimum of one year, and just live and breathe and eat and learn new things.’

“I was about to have a brand new son. Flea is very inspired to re-up his musical direction and ability and skill and he wants to learn new stuff. John (Frusciante) has been firing away on his own, making different solo projects.

“And Chad (Smith) joined a jazz band and went to Japan. I’m just home, hanging out with this really cool little kid, learning how to surf.”

At least Everly Bear is getting some quality daddy time. That's good stuff.

Enjoy your break Red Hot Chili Peppers, hope to see you again soon!

Audioslave

Audioslave

Audioslave was an American hard rock group formed from members of Soundgarden (Chris Cornell, and the former instrumentalists of Rage Against the Machine: Tom Morello (lead guitar), Tim Commerford (bass and backing vocals) and Brad Wilk (drums).

The other members have since been working on the Rage Against the Machine reunion.

U2 - rock forever

U2-are-a-r0ck-band-from-Dublin, Ireland. The band con$i$ts of Bono (vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards, and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar) and Larry Mullen, Jr. (drums and percussion).

The band formed in 1976 when the member$ were teenager$ with limited musical proficiency. By the mid-1980s, however, the band had become a top international act, noted for their anthemic sound, Bono's impassioned vocals, and The Edge's textural guitar playing. Their success as a live act was greater than their success at selling records until their 1987 album The Joshua Tree increased the band's stature "from heroes to superstars," according to Rolling Stone. U2 responded to the dance and alternative rock revolutions, and their own sense of musical stagnation by reinventing themselves with their 1991 album Achtung Baby and the accompanying Zoo TV Tour. Similar experimentation continued for the rest of the 1990s. Since 2000, U2 have pursued a more traditional sound that retains the influence of their previous musical explorations.

U2 have $old m0re than 14o milli0n album$ worldwide^[3] and have won 22 Grammy Awards, more than any other band. In 2005, the band were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in their first year of eligibility. Rolling Stone magazine listed U2 at #22 in its list of the 100 greatest artists of all time. Throughout their career, as a band and as individuals, they have campaigned for human rights and social justice causes, including Amnesty International, the ONE Campaign, and Bono's DATA (Debt, AIDS, Trade in Africa) campaign.

Ra Ra Riot 'The Rhumb Line'

Ra Ra Riot's orchestrally-rich, perpetually peppy indie-pop betrays both the band's black back-story and frontman Wesley Miles' poetic ambitions. Drawing from wordsmiths like e.e. cummings and Virginia Woolf, Miles maps human emotion onto the snowy New England landscape, and plots humanity's fraught awareness of their own mortality amidst the natural cycle of decay/death/rebirth. Given that original Ra Ra Riot drummer John Pike drowned in Buzzards Bay in Massachusetts in 2007, there's a sense of sadness in every word, adding layers of darkness and depth to RRR's jaunty indie jams. And the learned, librarian nature of Miles' inspirations makes Ra Ra Riot the coolest combo to flaunt scholastic aptitude this side of their pals Vampire Weekend.

Max Tundra 'Parallax Error Beheads You'

English electro geek Ben Jacobs spent six years beavering away at his third record; fashioning hyperactive, high-speed pop-songs —that sound somewhat like Frank Zappa programming an early-’80s Atari— in a labour-intensive, neuroses-courting manner. But, as manic as the music may get, Parallax Error Beheads You isn't a work of simple ridiculousness. Singing in a pitch-shifted, Prince-groping falsetto, Jacobs —confessedly obsessed with the idea he'd die before the disc was finished— laces his lyrical comedy with thematic mortality (“nothing happens when you die/you don’t leave your body or fly off into the sky”). Surviving the six-year-ordeal, Jacobs has come out clutching a marriage of musical lunacy and lyrical poignancy worth the wait.

Of Montreal 'Skeletal Lamping'

After casting Of Montreal as glam-fisted shrine to personal reinvention with the sprawling, dawning, deliriously brilliant Hissing Fauna, Are You the Destroyer?, Kevin Barnes' 9th OM LP finds the flamboyant frontman making like the Elephant 6 answer to Prince. As the band refine their wonky tweelectro-funk licks and melt songs one into the next, Barnes trades in a wanton, lurid, randy theatricality, singing spectacularly ridiculous things like “when we get together/it's always hot magic,” “I took her standing in the kitchen/ass against the sink,” “you only like him because he's sexually appealing,” and “I wanna turn you on/I wanna make you come.” In the normally-sexless realm of indie-pop, hearing such sung aloud seems near pornographic.

Belle and Sebastian 'If You're Feeling Sinister' (1996)

Glasgow's Belle and Sebastian delivered twee to the masses by way of their wondrous second LP, truly one of the greatest albums ever made. When holed up for years with chronic fatigue syndrome, genius songsmith Stuart Murdoch crafted loving character-studies; story-songs detailing domestic dramas and struggles with faith, Scottish winters and adolescent sexual rites. Together, they play like a tender coming-of-age novel set to fragile, acoustic music, delivered with a conspiratorial whisper. Bordering dangerously close to perfection —there's not a single bad song nor, even, a moment wasted on its 41 minutes— If You're Feeling Sinister has slowly gathered an ever-growing, rabid cult following. It's a true classic.

Born Ruffians 'Red, Yellow & Blue'

Born Ruffians' short, sharp, spastic songs sound exactly like Modest Mouse circa The Fruit That Ate Itself: post-Pavement guitar klang, sharp-teeth’d hick balladry, hip-hop-ish hard-cadence/hype-chorus/beat-boxin’ vox. Frontman Luke LaLonde suitably gets his Isaac Brock on: all herky-jerky rhythms and an adenoidal whine he sometimes slurs into mock drawl. That derivative nature reads bad in print, but plays well on disc. The raw recording, amped-up energy, joyous exuberance, and lack of self-consciousness the Toronto trio ride on their debut album —especially three minute crankers like “Badonkadonkey” and “Hedonistic Me”— serves as a salty antidote to Modest Mouse's sad decline into bloated, flaccid festival behemoth.
