If she’s signed to the same record label as Kylie Minogue then she must be great, right? While that logic wouldn’t exactly be sound in most cases, it’s certainly true when it comes to up-and-c0ming singer Sky Ferreira. We featured her debut single “One” a […]

Aural Only: Christina Perri
Apparently people can get recording contracts after being featured on an episode of So You Think You Can Dance? At least that’s the story behind singer-songwriter Christina Perri and her breakout single “Jar of Hearts”. Two of the show’s contestants choreographed a dance for her […]
Aural Only: Ellie Goulding
We’re totally digging Ellie Goulding‘s latest single “The Writer”, even if it doesn’t necessarily have “Song of Summer” written all over it. While it’s nowhere near as exciting or upbeat as her previous output, there’s something very refreshing about hearing her vocals on a toned-down pop […]
Vote For The Weekly Top Ten Wild Card
What defines the sound of summer? Is it a blaring club jam that leaves you sweatier than you’ve ever been? Or a laid-back tune about throwing back a beer or two? Don’t expect any answers from me! It’s up to you to decide which of […]
Aural Only: Katie Melua
Why aren’t you listening to Katie Melua‘s new album The House? There really isn’t a good answer to that question. Unless you’re about to tell me that you are listening to her new album. The William Orbit-produced set is one of the better releases of […]

Aural Only: Brandon Flowers
What’s better than a music video full of ninjas? The answer is quite simple–a music video full of ninjas getting their asses kicked by Charlize Theron. That’s the concept behind “Crossfire”, the solo debut from Brandon Flowers of The Killers, and it’s even more exciting than […]
Aural Only: Neon Trees
If you’re a fan of The Killers, then there’s a pretty high chance that you’ll get into Neon Trees. Coincidentally, the Utah-based rock band was pushed into the spotlight by Ronnie Vannucci Jr, a man who just so happens to be the drummer of… you […]
Vote For The Weekly Top Ten Wild Card
Change is good, right? We sure as hell hope so, because we’re moving the Wild Card round of our Weekly Top Ten from its traditional spot on Thursday to a new home on Wednesdays. This will give you an extra day to fully absorb the […]
Aural Only: Maroon 5
When it comes to Maroon 5, it’s been said that you either love them or hate ’em. Though I happen to fall into the latter category, I’m more than willing to admit that ninety-percent of gay men disagree with me on the band’s general shittiness. […]
