In case you’re Tom Hanks (3) in the Saturday Night Live Mr. Short Term Memory sketches or just new to the magic of Cinema Blend Music, I’ll give you a little run down of how this article works. I was at Lollapalooza all weekend. You probably weren’t. Therefore, since I’m an affable sort of guy, I’ll fill you in about all the goings on ... read more |

Guitar Hero: World Edition will not only feature Linkin Park but also will allow for the creation of original music using pre-made bass and drum loops and, of course, those damn four Technicolor buttons that will never truly replicate chords and scales. With such “innovations,” will one day every musician be a descendant of Moby? ... read more |

Radiohead’s tour path will start August 1st in Chicaga-palooza, where they meet up with fellow Internet-jockeys Nine Inch Nails, and where slaps will doubtless be thrown. The band and its entourage of rabid taggers-along will continue throughout the Midwest and northern states, venturing into the great white north of Canada ... read more |

The album, which went downloadable on March 3 and is slated for physical release in early April, was deliberately left without descriptive song titles, picturesque packaging, or any other visual cues that might taint listeners’ perceptions. This leaves as close to a blank slate as possible to work with, Reznor explained in a statement posted on NIN’s official page ... read more |

Not too bad for a hastily thrown together disc without vocals ... read more |

Like Enrico Fermi (2), I’ll research, dissect, and eventually, split open the most noteworthy musical events of the previous week, causing a chain reaction that may or may not change life as we know it. Along the way, I’ll keep a running count of every famous person mentioned, hopefully hitting 50 by the article’s “it was all a dream” ending. Ready? Than like Alex Trebek’s (3) moustache, I’m off ... read more |

Reznor followed a business model similar to Radiohead's own "suck it, record company" for Williams' release, by allowing the music for free download and those big spenders willing to part with five bucks would access better files. Although NME reports that 28,322 listeners have paid so far (Williams' last effort sold a total of 33,897 copies), Reznor is crying off the rest of his eyeliner because about 120,000 didn't pay. ... read more |

When was the last time you skipped through a mall while unwrapping the plastic on a new CD? Almost as long as the last time you saw a music video on TV, huh? Personally, I can't even find what I'm looking for in a record store anymore, or find a record store for that matter ... read more |
