Listen to new track from PHOX album Friendship
The ever-crazy Matt Holmen of Madison band PHOX checked in with us for an update. He also included a track from the new album Friendship. This is what Matt had to say: 0 CommentsMontreal troubadours Plants and Animals thrive in live setting
0 CommentsInterview: Chicago's Mutts play the Dragonfly Lounge
Mutts is not your ordinary Chicago band. Keyboardist and lead singer Mike Maimone has an eerily familiar growl reminiscent of Tom Waits. Couple that with aggressive rythyms, highlighted by a B3 organ, and the result is sheer abandon. Mutts' live show has become legendary on the local Chicago music scene. A new album "Separation Anxiety" has just been released and the band will visit the Dragonfly Lounge in Madison for a record release show. Also on the bill; Suns, Hewn and Savage Boys. 0 CommentsWatch Animal Collective's new video from Centipede Hz
Avey Tare of Animal Collective takes on a clown persona in a dune buggy, with severed arms, for the video of "Today's Supernatural" from the new album Centipede Hz. Was someone hitting the peyote out in the desert? The follow-up to Merriweather Post Pavilion has been over two years in the making and promises to be a more high energy affair. The album was produced by Ben Allen. 0 CommentsArt of the interview: Nardwuar vs. Skrillex
It was bound to happen. Nardwuar vs. Skrillex. The meeting of two unique personalities. Sonny John Moore, aka Skrillex, has come a long way since his Mac hard drive crashed before a sold-out gig at the Majestic Theatre two years ago. In the aftermath of the show cancellation that night, the bewildered Skrillex hid in a corner of the venue while angry fans booed, nearly erupting into a full scale riot. Evidently due to the reliability of Apple Macs, Skrillex had never backed up his hard drive which basically contained his entire show plus new material. Just think, lose the hard drive that night and we wouldn't have the Skrillex of today! The laptop was sent to the Madison Apple store who in turn shipped it to Seattle where the Apple experts eventually recovered the hard drive. These days, I'm sure Skrillex is using the cloud for backup with a paid employee dedicated to the task. 0 Comments |

@jonkares @momentitus @DeanKesler Liability insurance and a staff position according to Rick Tvedt (the MAMA's dude).
@momentitus @jonkares @DeanKesler @1055triplem Erin, enlighten me on Triple M's connection. I'm an indie blogger. Don't listen to the radio.
@jonkares @momentitus @DeanKesler Ok, I'm dyslexic. It's Make Music Madison.
