by Lauren Mullineaux

Well it’s been a hectic week in the business hasn’t it what with the death and the outrage and the awards and the fainting and the relaxing and the… oh god it just never ends.

The Black Keys Slate Bieber And The Grammy Awards To Excite Their Largely White, Conservative Audience

by Mof Gimmers

Regressive, backward looking, music-isn’t-as-good-as-it-used-to-be rockers, The Black Keys, have decided to hit out against pop music and award-ceremonies in a move not believed to have been done by any conservative band in the history of white rock music.

Pop Promos: Bad Girls, Bad Boys, Bad Music

by Lauren Mullineaux

Well it’s been a high profile week for music what will all the sports happening and that. If you didn’t watch the kitten walk on the pitch in the football or MIA flip the proverbial bird in the Super Bowl then it really doesn’t matter because The Metro covers just about all of it in [...]

Pop Promos: It’s Like The Worst Bits Of The 90s All Over Again

by Lauren Mullineaux

Pop promos! More of them! There’s always new music being made. This is, of course, a good thing. It’s also a really, truly awful thing. Some records come out and you just think ‘why did you bother?’

Pop Promos: Dog Wangs, Dancers And Douches

by Lauren Mullineaux

World events they’re fun aren’t they? Well no, not really, but hey at least you can now use IfIDie.net to record an ‘in-case of my accidentally on purpose death please avenge me to the bitter end’ video. Yes that a real thing now. Yes, it does seem like one of those fake adverts from Six Feet [...]

Lana Del Rey: Doesn’t Really Care About Music At All, But Expects You To

by Mof Gimmers

Years ago, a smarter scribe than this wrote of ‘air-conditioner music’, which is to say, music stopped putting something into a room and instead, started trying to remove it. And removing everything out of a room, apart from the earless saps who buy it, is Lana Del Rey, the most tepid popstar in history. She’s [...]

Forget The Oscar Nominations! The Libertines Have A Documentary Coming Out!

by Matthew Laidlow

Why do people care about The Oscars? The winners get a lousy statue that resembles a gold-plated bottle of bubble bath with a screw top head. Hollywood has run out of ideas and has realised that the game is up, badly remaking Japanese films and adapting stupid books. But Generation Yoof won’t care about classic [...]

Pop Promos: Nevermind The SOPA, Here’s Some Music Videos

by Lauren Mullineaux

We’d love to tell you about the tragic things that have been happening this week, but we can’t get on Wikipedia because of some protest for some dumb law the stupid Americans are trying to enforce. We’d love to tell you what that law is, but you know we aren’t really all that knowledgeable about [...]

Z-Shaped, Tasteless Losers Rejoice At New Material From Suede!

by Mof Gimmers

Remember Suede? That’s right. They were a vaguely noisy band with an obsession with Bowie and women’s blouses. They were at the forefront of Britpop and, for the most part, Britpop was rubbish. So thanks for that. Apparently, they’ll be making a comeback. Just great. Of course, there’s a plethora of middle-aged men with pink [...]

Pop Promos: A Bunch Of Stupid New Pop Videos

by Lauren Mullineaux

Christ, we’re starting this year as we mean to go on, which is by turning up very late, slightly drunk, and not really having anything to say. So it’s a lot like last year really, except people might be taking things more seriously because we could all be about to die if the Mayans have [...]
