Flash mobs and secret gigs are one way to surprise your fans, and make a viral video. But how important is the location of these gigs? Would you play in a garbage dumpster? Twin Shadow would, at SXSW no less....
Lou Reed’s passing has seemed like an endless tribute to the Velvet Underground founder. Emily Haines wrote a touching article in Rolling Stone about her experiences with the man. Some other people opted to let their music do the talking....
We have a catchy (and not in the disease / bad kind of way) new track from Twin Shadow. The track was shared by George Lewis Jr. (TWIN SHADOW TO YOU!) on his Facebook page. It is looking like the...
Yesterday, we listed the PeteHatesMusic Top Songs of 2012, and we had a tough time narrowing it down to just 25. A slightly easier task is listing the top albums, as good songs far outnumber good, complete, top to bottom...
One of the standout tracks from Twin Shadow’s Confess album is The One. We get a video for the new single, but it’s a very stripped down, non-album version that comes across as a heartbreakingly painful version. The show was...
Twin Shadow has had a busy year. Besides releasing his fairly good second album, George has remixed a few people. First up was Solange, and now he applies his touch to MS MR. The original version of Hurricane is pretty...
Solange “don’t call me Beyonce’s little sister” Knowles (aka Beyonce’s little sister) has dropped the great new track Losing You (which is featured on the right hand side of PHM this week). The B-side to that single is Sleep in...
Hopefully you’ve listened to the new Twin Shadow album, Confess, on loop many times. If not, you’ve forgiven (by me, perhaps not by George aka Twin Shadow). The first video off of Confess, for Five Seconds, paid homage to bike...
Twin Shadow‘s new record Confess will be out next week. In case you can’t wait that long, we now have the entire new album to stream in full (via pitchfork.com) Hurray for technology! We’ve seen the video for the song...
Back in May, PeteHatesMusic let you listen to the new track, Five Seconds, by Twin Shadow. In that post we also told you that song was off the upcoming new album, Confess, due out in July. As Pete noted, the...
Twin Shadow released a fantastic debut album in 2010, with Forget. Trying my best not to do a lame “Forget” segue, I’ll simply say that Twin Shadow has remembered to make another album, and has announced that they will release...
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart (who PeteHatesMusic caught live in Toronto) have an exclusive EP out on April 21 for Record Store Day. There will be four songs on the remix EP, called Acid Reflux EP, which features...
Twin Shadow dropped a killer debut on the world at the end of last year. Now Twin Shadow, aka George Lewis Jr, have a new single. You can listen to Changes below, or you can insert your email address into...
Generally, a lot of rock music, particularly heavy metal, is about the devil and hell. Also generally, if you want to go to a concert, you need to deal with the devil. If it wasn’t bad enough that Ticketmaster nearly...
