Radiohead Internet Drama

Read all about it @ Rawkblog.

I’m a huge Radiohead fan, but I’m tired of their games, to be honest. But like I said before… as long as they keep leaking new music, I can’t really complain.

Just Wondering

Also, someone stole my laptop on a trip (along with my iPod, clothes, shoes and other personal items), so boo on you whoever did that. While I do have a backup laptop, it’s not entirely equipped for the job. So we’ll see how that affects posting.

Oh and it seems that this last weekend was particularly busy in terms of new music poppin’ up. So I am going to have to get cracking on those all morning. For now, here are a handful of tunes I have been planning on sharing. But because I’m so behind (and particularly busy in my personal life), I’m just going to give them all to you now. No strings, except for the invisible ones that permeate throughout the PMA infrastructure. Anywho… go and get ‘em! Continue reading →

RIP: Michael Jackson

RIP: Michael Jackson aside

Michael Jackson. August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009
The passing of the definitive music legend will always be a sad day in music’s history. Throw on Thriller or HIStory and never forget the great man and great artist that Michael Jackson was.

Friday Links

I was going to do a Sunday Links thing every Sunday, but why should I discriminate against the other perfectly capable days of the week? Oh yes, I went there.

So to the question of when these will happen will be subject to my personal discretion, or sometimes based on impulse or caprice (or in other words, whenever I want to). Here are your Friday Links, I expect you to click them all, because they’re all pretty much amazing.

Listen to, Preview, and HEART all of the music posted on PMA.

Frank(ie) Ramz posted this fantastic video on Pigeons & Planes. If you sort of like Asher Roth, or even sort of hate him, you might enjoy this. “I Hate High School.”

MGMT cover Nine Inch Nail’s “Closer.” Not sure how old this is, but I like it. Saw it at Rollo & Grady via Bleakey. I wanna fuck you like a DINOSAUR!

Stereogum told us that Radiohead are fast at work on an In Rainbows follow-up. Mass hysteria ensues.

Soulwax & Au Revoir Simone involved in the making of the Aeroplane album! – via Ohh Crapp

Jay-Z confirms split with Def Jam.
