In case you were wondering – no, punk is not dead in Athens, Ga. In an almost satanic fury of screeching vocals and dark psych-rock comes Woodfangs, a local Athens band with a worldly sense of attitude. On their newest album, Future Vistas (out May 26 — keep your ears open), we take a journey…
Scooterbabe, an Athens, Ga.-based noise pop trio, recently released an EP. The 5-track Scooterbabe EP is available digitally on a “name your own price” basis, and the band also released the project on a limited number of cassette tapes… Yes, I just said (well, wrote) cassette tapes… As in those plastic music squares that had…
We found our way to the Hilton rooftop pool (life is sooo hard) in downtown Austin during South by Southwest for this picturesque interview with “magma pop” sensation, Samsaya. This girl is seriously the bomb. Before SXSW, I was totally obsessed with her music (everyone should get after her track “Stereotype”), and now I’m totally…
I was super pumped when I learned that I was going to get to interview Moon Taxi at South by Southwest this year. Having been a fan for years, I’ve seen them live quite a few times (it doesn’t hurt that I’m from Nashville, Moon Taxi’s city of origin). I loved them first as a…

She’s one of those girls who can channel her inner spirit outfit effortlessly – mixing and matching playfully and adding details that give her outfit special personality. We’ve…
Who wouldn’t be intrigued by a band called Casual Sex? So, honestly, we were originally drawn to them because of the shock value of their name (weren’t you?), but then we gave them a listen, and that’s where the real love affair began. This band is cool. That’s really all that I can say. Their…
OFF! have debuted their new video for “Red, White, and Black.” The video includes Nazis fighting Bikers…so that’s cool?
[tps_header] What’s up? We’re Diarrhea Planet, and we just woke up!! It was the final day of South by Southwest, and the guys from Diarrhea Planet were taking the stage as I was waiting outside the gates of Austin’s Historic Scoot Inn. It was a rainy Saturday with an uncharacteristically long wait time for an…
Girl Talk recently teamed up with former Roc-A-Fella MC Freeway to release the Broken Ankles EP. The project was released free on DatPiff, and I was so hype to get to write my first review on a hip-hop project. I looked up to 2Pac, Biggie, Eazy-E, and the remaining Rap Gods, but they stared down…
Nashville native, Bobby Bare, Jr. exemplifies southern rock ‘n’ roll in his most recent album, Undefeated, out today! Along with the album, a documentary, Don’t Follow Me (I’m Lost) will be released May 1st. The documentary, ironically, follows Bare in his musical endeavors and family affairs. On Bloodshot Records artist page, Bare is described as “rambunctious” and “freewheeling,” generally…
