The 2013 Grammy Nominations Are Out Who’s happy and who’s sad? The Grammy nominations were announced last night, and they’ve gone a little less mainstream. Some of the nominees include year-end list topper Frank Ocean, Jack White, The Black Keys,...
Mumford & Sons are the latest band to feature on the PBS show, Austin City Limits, joining the likes of Radiohead, the Shins, and Bon Iver. What could the English lads bring to the show? Banjos. Check out the full...
We have the second video from the massive selling second album from London’s Mumford & Sons. The track follows the video for I Will Wait and is called Lover of the Light (which is seemingly not a track about vampires)....
Hurricane Sandy is No Damn Fun Hurricane Sandy has descended on the east coast of America, causing rain and wind through northeastern USA and parts of Canada. Due to the crazy winds and because it’s rainin’ sideways, several shows have...
British Bands Are Number 1 and 2 in America For the first time since May 1992, British bands occupy the number 1 and 2 spots on the Billboard 200 (via Hollywood Reporter). Muse might have hit number 1 in the...
