Johnson was cut today by the Kansas City Chiefs after several run-ins with new head coach Todd Haley, most notably a recent public questioning of Haley's background followed by a homophobic slur. I would hope that there is no chance that the Texans will...

As all of us well know Mike Tannenbaum is known for being a gambling man (i.e. Favre, Edwards) and I’m beginning to wonder if the newly released Larry Johnson will be a priority if they decide to use Danny Woodhead primarily as a wide receiver rather than a running back. I know the baggage is a great amount [...]

Chiefs to release Larry Johnson Johnson will hit waivers (unlikely he's claimed according to Schefter ) before becoming a free agent. Todd Haley is not a man to cross apparently (and obviously Larry Johnson is a moron). The Colts week 10 opponent, The Patriots, have been rumored to be a landing point for the disgruntled back.

Consider the collective catalogs of these two prolific masters of the new American folk songcraft: Magnolia Electric Co., Centro-matic, Songs: Ohia, South San Gabriel. Now, let's just be honest. A little bit of artistic ego and one-upsmanship can serve a greater purpose. In this collaboration between Jason Molina and Will Johnson, each seem to hold the other's talents to the fire and elevate both...

Living near Denton TX, it isn’t exactly hard for a music-lover to be intimately familiar with the name and work of Will Johnson. The band he is perhaps most well-known for, Centro-matic, is a North Texas icon. He may be spending more time in our state’s capital these days, but that doesn’t keep us from [...]

[Images: Mr Paparazzi / Big Pictures Words: Candi Kays] John & Edward Grimes have officially taken over the X Factor and bookies are quaking in their boots at the prospect of a massive pay out on the twins original odds of 150/1. We still can’t quite get our head around their ridiculous level of popularity but we suppose we should just accept it because it shows now signs of slowing down....

Your local triple-A format radio station's favorite of this year's supergroup explosion stopped by 30 Rock last night. That's M. Ward, Conor Oberst, Mike Mogis, and Yim Yames, singing "Dear God (Sincerely M.O.F.)," the minor key harp and soul track from Monsters Of Folk's self-titled debut. As has been the case on tour, Centro-matic's Will Johnson is sitting behind the drums, although M.O.F....

When you start to wonder how you keep playing this stark, quiet record over and over again, how a sound this desiccated could sound so bracing, the answers are found in the barely-there flourishes of collaboration. Few get more lonesome on record than Will Johnson and Jason Molina. I mean, sure Centro-matic can shake the rafters, and South San Gabriel can expand and overwhelm, and Magnolia Electric...
