RT @CenterdinTucson: Arizona grad student wins Rhodes scholarship. (Crap. And here I thought it was spelled "Roads" all these years. Damn.) # RT @irabrooker: CSNY's "After the Dolphin" came up on my iTunes. It's like Peter Gabriel-era Genesis minus the subtlety. Fantastically bad. # @GojyoChan Don't forget to include a lengthy passage about MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE in your Mid-Term...
West Africa produced many outstanding releases during the noughties, but the Malian singer's stark and haunting album was the most remarkable By normal industry standards, waiting until you're 53 to make the best album of your career is perhaps leaving it a bit late. But then not much about Salif Keita's story is normal. Was it a blessing or a curse for this Malian teenager – already singled...

Steve Lillywhite is the man responsible for producing the debut albums by U2 and Dave Matthews Band as well as many of their subsequent million-selling releases. While Bono and Dave have both consistently trusted Steve to fit their visions between the speakers, so have artists as diverse as The Rolling Stones, Peter Gabriel, Johnny Thunders, Ultravox, Guster, She & Him, XTC , Jason Mraz, The Pogues,...
There’s been a lot of hoo-hah and kefuffle over the fact that we’re celebrating the 20th anniversary of the arrival of Wallace & Gromit into our lives. Frankly, we couldn’t give a toss – the old man’s a prick and the dog’s a sly, self-serving arsehole. There – you probably won’t read opinions like that everywhere [...]
As I've mentioned before, music is capable of just about anything, and so are people. This is why it's always important to be in touch with your anger and to know how to properly express it through different musical means. People oftentimes suck, and you are morally obligated as a decent member of society to call out the offending party appropriately.
Picking out a key scene from "Cousins," the just-premiered-today video from Vampire Weekend, is something of a mistake. After all, the spastic new clip is all about kinetic energy. The entirety of its three minutes takes place in an alley and features frontman Ezra Koenig rolling backwards and forwards on a track set up in [...]
So says Peter Gabriel discussing the future of the music business. There’s no doubt the big business end of the music industry is in crisis, as the disruptive technology of broadband internet undermines the existing business model of the major labels. While some people are running around screaming that the sky is falling in, and in [...]
The former Genesis frontman on fan funding, reliable filters, and why he would commission an alternative to The X Factor When I blogged about the lack of women in the music industry , one manager claimed that this is because girls are less interested in who worked on a record than what the band looks like on the cover. I'm not sure that's entirely true. After all, I was one of those girls who studied...
DOWNLOADS: (91) PLAYS: (378) Usually I try to find reasonably off-the-beaten track videos for LNMC -- and I usually prefer live stuff -- but every now and then it's fun to dust off the ol' faves. At one time this video was considered the best studio vid ever made. I expect that's no longer true, but I'd like to know what you all think would be the videos that surpass it. Post some nominees in the...
CHICAGO (Billboard) –Genesis keyboardist Tony Banks isn't taking his tuxedo to the dry cleaner yet. But he's hoping that the British prog rockers, who are on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame ballot for the first time, wind up collecting trophies at the March 15 induction ceremony in New York City. "It'll be great if it does happen," Banks tells Billboard.com, "but I can't really tell whether we're going...
