New album from Cage the Elephant

photo by Amy Willard
Cage the Elephant have returned with their sophomore LP, Thank You Happy Birthday. We weren't sure what to expect with this album after the free lease of one of the tracks, "2024," which felt more like something put out by The Killers than Cage the Elephant. Upon its release this past Tuesday, however, we were pleased with the album.

Thank You Happy Birthday proves the strength and diversity of this unique rock band that some listeners may have doubted on their self titled debut last year.

Buzz tracks: "Shakes Me Down," "Always Something," and "Flow."

Music (video) Monday: The Damned Things

Super group obviously means super heroes... of rock. Check out this new video from The Damned Things!

Happy Hanukkah!

Might want to be on drugs for.. D.R.U.G.S.

After departing Chiodos in 2009, Craig Owens is making his return with his new band D.R.U.G.S. they just released their first music video for "If You Think This Song Is About You, It Probably Is."

It's a little intense...

This is getting to you... and everyone you know!

Who knew a little viral music experiment would be making headlines for all the right reasons?

One of our favorite bands The Daylights (who were in DC just the other week--- sorry, readers we're unable to recover the images from the show) decided to help their roommate, Walter May, restore faith in romance in modern day society.

To accomplish such a feat, they helped him write a song for his girlfriend who recently moved across the country to study at Duke. With a little creativity and a camera, they came up with this long distance, viral music video... a modern day love letter of sorts, appropriately titled "I Hope This Gets To You."

Thanks to Twitter and Facebook, the video got to her... and the rest of the world!

Check it out!

Fun. at the 9:30 Club

Don't forget Fun. and Steel Train will be at the 9:30 Club tomorrow!! Tickets are still available! Remember, we reviewed Fun. as one of our favorite bands to see live, DON'T MISS THIS SHOW!
