PrettyMuchAmazing’s Last Listen 2007

2007 is nearly at an end, and I have been thinking and rethinking my first ever Last Listen Year-End list. 2007, believe it or not, was an amazing year for music. There have been some damn near-perfect albums, many excellent albums, even more great albums, but of course, a crazy amount of albums ready for [...]

Holiday/NYE Playlist

I hope everyone had a great Christmas, Chanukah, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, or whatever you celebrate this week. I hope everybody is geared up for the New Year’s Eve this Monday. Here’s a little playlist I put together of some of my favorite remixes, covers, and mashups to lighten up this holiday season.
M.I.A. vs The Bravery - [...]

Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter III

Lil Wayne’s seventh studio album Tha Carter III will finally hit stores Feb. 18, 2008. We had to wait quite a while, especially since a load of the album was leaked over the summer. Here is what Weezy had to say about that:
We have to find out exactly what’s out there. I’ll probably just [collect] [...]

Burial and The Field (and others) Remix Thom Yorke’s Eraser

It’s refreshing to talk about Thom Yorke without really talking about Radiohead. A few days ago the ever amazing Discobelle leaked Burial’s remix of Thom Yorke’s “And It Rained All Night”. If you felt anything for Burial’s Untrue, then you’re going to go ga-ga for this remix. The track will be featured on Thom’s new [...]

Win a Pair of Tix to See Kate Nash in NYC!

Imagine my surprise when I checked my email earlier today. Thanks to a couple of contacts, I have 2 tickets to see Kate Nash live at the Bowery Room in New York January 9th.
Since I don’t live in New York, I saw this an a perfect opportunity to do a giveaway type thing. Since it’s [...]

The Rant: Britney, Jaime-Lynn, HMV Poll of Polls

So Britney’s sister is preggers, eh? Not surprising, but definately disappointing. I hoped there’d be one normal person in the family, guess not. They’re just a bunch of rich, white trash. Emphasis on the trash:
Britney Spears - Toxic (Extended Version)
Every year HMV buyers compile a definitive year-end list in hopes of unearthing the best album [...]

Lil Wayne and Zac Efron Sitting In A Tree…

R-E-M-I-X-I-N-G, and a little lip action too?

Welcome to Holly-La-La Land! To your left, we have Hilary Clinton “getting her freak on” with 50 Cent, and to your right, you can see Britney Spears winning her 13th GRAMMY. Of course, we can’t for get, front-and-center, Lil Wayne’s and Zac Efron’s High School Musical dance album. On [...]

New Justice Single - "Phantom"

Everyone’s favorite electronic duo, Justice, is releasing their new single, “Phantom” SOURCE . While “Phantom” parts 1 and 2 are phenomenal, I am pretty fond of “Phantom Pt. 2″. Either way anyone who gets their hands on this disc is pretty lucky. It will not only include the “Phantom” duo, but a couple of [...]

Famous-Sounding Words Make Your Head Feel Light (Revisited)

funny album cover
To be blunt, a major part of blogging is reading other blogs. There isn’t one blogger out there who doesn’t read another blog. It doesn’t even end there, bloggers read dozens of blogs. DOZENS! I know, its crazy, I have no idea why we do it, but we do. I see a lot [...]

Rolling Stone’s Top 50 Albums: Hate, Hate, Like?

Rolling Stone garnered some favor from many bloggers with its Best 100 Songs of 2007, but their album list is really messed up. Yes, it does have its moments, but for the most part it makes you want to chuck things at them. Like staplers or bowling balls, that sort of thing.
Hate, Dislike, and the [...]
