Huntsville, Ontario -- Bartlett Lodge (bartlettlodge.com) has been an Algonquin Provincial Park landmark since 1917 and its current owners, Marilyn & Kim Smith, are totally committed to environmental ... read more
Sarah Gregg Millman (of the Girl Guides) "Oooh This Love is So" (Al B. Sure cover) Words cannot express how excited I was to see this covered. Sigh. Al B. The Chipmunks "Good Girls Don't" (The Knack cover) I still can't believe that such a dirty song was reworked (and barely, at that) for a kids album. The Gwen Stacys "Alive" (Oasis cover) Tiffany "Panic (Hang the DJ)" (The Smiths cover) Yes,...
York / Harrisburg, PA Instrumentation with depth! ...and this is no cover band for The Smiths. "A Thought" Bigmouth Strikes Again on MySpace Bigmouth Strikes Again on The Hype Machine
... painted miracle to morbid doldrums like they reshot the video for A-Ha's "Take on Me" with The Smiths. There are two combating narratives fighting for attention in this, and both are filtered through the eyes of a 5-year-old girl. In the hands of a more deft filmmaker or screenwriter, this could have been powerfully effective; here, it's just uneven, confusing, and erratic. Neither story...
Singer Morrissey , former frontman for the Smiths, pulled one of the most outrageous diva acts in a hotel that we have yet to witness. Seriously, we would have rather he thrown a TV out of the window than this. Apparently, Morrissey discovered that a a magazine editor of the music publication NME was staying in the same hotel as him. Since the mag printed an interview last December which suggested...
Who let this picture happen? Seriously? Sure they listen to the Smiths too much, but the newly major-label-signed Black Kids are a reminder of the time a couple of seven-inches with great songwriting could make you immortal. Plus, the moments of '50s hot flash are pure thrill—if they remade Grease for post-emo kids, Black Kids would play the prom. With Cut Copy, whose new In Ghost Colours is...
Ned's Atomic Dustbin are the latest bygone band to announce a reunion, with a single show at London's Astoria this Dec. 6. Much as I love their double-bassed assault, aren't we running out of bands that can reunite during this decade? As far as I can see, the list is composed of The Smiths, Pavement, Uncle Tupelo, and... uh... I mean, I guess Milli Vanilli can't really count... [ NME ]
... were birthed. On that album, the band covered artists as diverse as Jawbreaker and Fugazi to The Smiths and The Psychedelic Furs. On Melancholics Anonymous those influences become even more apparent. The hints of British pop are coated all over Keith’s solo debut. Perhaps the most telling cover of Standards & Practices is Sugar’s “Helpless.” Bob Mould who had previously fronted melodic punk...
Rosie O'Donnell has returned to Broadway for a run in "No No Nanette" and her reviews have been terrific - better than those for the overall show, New York Times: Ms. O'Donnell, of whom you may have heard, scores a personal triumph as the Smiths' grumpy, bossy maid. With only minimal changes in vocal and facial expressions, she projects more comic authority than anyone around her (and more,...
... pop records yet also recalls the melodic bliss of Crowded House with the early strumminess of the Smiths. The band twist the essence of classic pop as cleverly as the the New Pornos The SF Weekly said "Reasonable bookends to this San Francisco band's record would be the Shins' Oh, Inverted World and Big Star's Third/Sister Lovers." Here's a couple tunes from the album, which is out on May...
... I rotate.” There’s one in the lower East Side. “The waiters are all Australian and they play The Smiths all day long which I find so fabulous. I always go there on the weekends. Then there are restaurants in Little Italy that I go to. I often go to these places in the middle of the afternoon, when they'll let me linger.” As many freelancers go beyond “Working From Home,” they're seeking...
According to the South Park kids, The Cure's "Disintegration" is the best album of all time . It's a great album. I know. I'm a record whore. I've loved a lot of records. I loved Black Celebration by Depeche Mode. I loved The Queen is Dead by the Smiths. I loved the Psychedelic Furs' Mirror Moves. I loved U2's the Unforgettable Fire. I loved New Order's Substance and Oasis's (What's the Story)...
