The Flaming Lips’ “Do You Realize?” Becomes The “Official Rock Song” Of Oklahoma »

“Do You Realize?” by The Flaming Lips (who formed in Oklahoma City in the early 1980s) is set to become the “official rock song” of Oklahoma despite some opposition from some truly idiotic conservatives (yes, “idiotic conservatives” does seem somewhat redundant at this point.) These fellas are opposed to “Do You Realize?” because of lead [...]

Creed Is Back »

According to this story Creed has reunited and they are working on a new album tentatively titled Full Circle. There’s been a lot of truly awful music released in Creed’s absence, but it looks as if they are back to show everyone exactly how you’re supposed to make godawful cheesy as hell music. The questions [...]

This is ridiculously awesome. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do:

More Marijuana Radio (With New Headphones) »

More marijuana radio on Last.FM, but this time I got my brand new fancy headphones, some good stuff to make things more appropriate, and some good news about Senator Jim Webb of Virginia “putting marijuana legalization on the table.” Tagged “marijuana” on Last.FM: Kottenmouth Kings – “All About the Weed” Their Last.FM page says that [...]

Marijuana Radio / PSA On The Legalization Of Marijuana »

I love the “tags” on Last.FM, they allow people to tag songs, albums, and artists with any tag they want.

They are widely known for being great mixing headphones (because they [...]

For Artists/Bands: MyContent.com »

MyContent.com is a new website that’s launching this summer where artists/bands can upload their music & videos and make that music (and/or videos) for sale at any price point they choose. This could be a good way for artists/bands to sell their music without having to sign up with a soul (and money) sucking label. [...]

Most Popular Artists In Canada, Egypt, & More »

One very cool feature of Last.FM is the ability to check the popularity of artists in different countries. It’s interesting to see how popular different bands are in different countries. Unfortunately they don’t seem to make it easy to find these country charts (in fact I’m not sure they even link to them at all?) [...]
