At some point today, Nine Inch Nails will release a new video for Came Back Haunted. That is cool. Yesterday, longtime NIN collaborator Rob Sheridan posted photos of Trent Reznor working with David Lynch on the video. Even cooler! When...
Django Django have a new video for WOR. This is interesting, since they already have a video for WOR. As Dave Maclean told us in our interview with Django Django, “I’m not mad keen on the ones we have done...
Disclaimer: We love Django Django. We said this when we interviewed them, and we even went on to name their Mercury-nominated debut album the PeteHatesMusic album of 2012. That’s a whole lotta love. When we chatted to Dave Maclean about...
Our number 1 album from 2012 was Django Django’s self-titled debut. The band have several official videos already, and are continuing to pump them out with latest video, Hand of Man. Like all things Django, it’s weird. We have a...

Django Django have announced a North America tour for 2013, and thankfully they’ll be coming to Toronto. I missed them in London earlier this year – twice! – thanks to the Field Day ticket fiasco. They have brought another bout...
New Jimi Hendrix Out Due in March Zombie Jimi Hendrix will release a posthumous album on March 5. His estate is milking his musical legacy by releasing tracks that were recorded between 1968 and 1969 (via Spinner). Now seems like...
New Nine Inch Nails Will Happen Trent Reznor just had a baby with his lovely wife, Mariqueen Maandig, which is how you would think he would be spending his NIN “retirement.” Instead, he forms a band with her (How to...
Alt-J have beaten out tough competition in Django Django, Jessie Ware, Richard Hawley, to name a few, to win their first Barclaycard Mercury Prize for Best British or Irish album at the awards. Their album, An Awesome Wave, featured great...
