Jacket: Vintage Skirt, top, hat: Forever 21 Bag: Mango MNG Unicorn necklace: ASOS Boots: Doctor Marten It was hard to dress "1995" without being too on the nose (1995 was a special year for me as you'll read below), but I thought Doc boots, tights, floral skirt, a beanie, a unicorn necklace, a big bag and a "Singles"-esque leather jacket was pretty good. I actually went shopping...

Sufjan Stevens told Paste in a recent interview that his concept of making an album for all 50 states to follow Illinois was actually a joke. "I think maybe I took it too seriously," he explains. "I started to feel like I was becoming a cliché of myself." Four years after the release of Illinois -- which Paste just deemed the best album of the decade -- Stevens says that...

Mark Mikel "So what's been going on you may ask? I've purchased a brand new Mellotron from Sweden and it's taking forever to get it. I ordered it in May. I've been basically obsessed with the excitement of its arrival. But it keeps getting delayed for various reasons.

In my life, I have attended four truly excellent shows. Lots of good, even great ones - but only four that were transcendent. 1. Carissa's Wierd, Valentine's Day, 2003 . The Decemberists opened and it was the first time I had ever heard them. So that was a wonderful surprise. But it's really all about my favorite band at the time playing an absolutely beautiful set. 2. Bruce Springsteen, November 18,...

I love a conspiracy theory, how about you? Although this one isn't necessarily new -- lots of folks have opined about the convenient coincidence of an escalating so-called pandemic mixed with an under-supply of vaccinations while the country debates healthcare reform -- it's all the more delicious when it comes from a rock star of some note. With that in mind, when singer, songwriter, and leader of...

Billy Corgan put on a puppet show. Yes, you read that right, a puppet show named Gothageddon . It features appearances by -- among others -- a teddy bear ringside announcer, the bald one himself, Robert Smith, Siouxsie Sioux, and, wait for it, James Iha. All characters are voiced by Corgan, often rather hilariously. While we have been greatly disappointed by Corgan's output over the last few years,...
