Britney Spears covers Alanis Morissette

Yeah, I know. I gasped myself but as much as I want to hate this, I can't because it's really not that bad. I mean, those pants are bad, the hair is bad and the jean jacket, well, we won't even talk about it, but the singing, not terrible. Though, I'm not fully convinced she isn't singing over a track during the chorus parts, call me a cynic.

Link it like you mean it

Karen O's song for Where The Wild Things Are. How amazing does this trailer look?

Muse talk about new album. 30-second clips available for streaming.

30 Seconds to Mars talk title and progress of upcoming album.

Ellie Greenwich (you don't think you know who she is, but you've def heard songs she's written) passed away today.

Alanis Morissette talks role on Weeds and the book she's writing. She's f*cking hilarious, so hopefully it will have more humor than not.

New Alanis and Gavin Rossdale

I love them both and I make no bones about it. Mwah! If you notice they're both really introspective videos. Alanis's video for Underneath focuses more on the two parts of someone battling one another but ultimately trying to reach the same end by different means. Pay special attention to what the things on the wall say towards the end - genius even if it is a little cheesy. The video for Love Remains the Same is interesting because I think it's showing all the things that he is as opposed to all the things people think he is, i.e. soccer player, chef, singer vs. sex symbol, washed up rock star, Mr. Stefani. I'll also add that there is a shower scene. I would like to think it's to represent him cleaning his "former image" however, I'll take it for its more obvious advantages. ;)

Oh yeah, and the new Weezer video is genius.

Link it like you mean it

Details about "Guitar Hero: World Tour" announced.

Link

In the same vein - "Guitar Hero" and "Rock Band" have been beathing life into new music as well as classics.

Link

Red Hot Chili Peppers taking a year off.

Link

Ville Valo feeds the haters because he like sto "stir the pot" so to speak.

Link

Secret performers for the Atticus DIY show are calling themselves, "The River People." I"m going to take a calculated guess here and say it's probably going to be Madina Lake.

Link

As Alanis prepares for the realease of her album, people just can't keep talking about Ryan Reynolds. I have said this before and I will say it again - I'm sure she was heartbroken when it happened but trust this - Scarlett Johansson might be younger and a popular actress but she will never be able to help him get a real acting career and she's so f*cking boring I could die. Tom Waits anyone? That album sucks ass.

Link

Alanis has a new album coming out on the 10th of June, whose media circus also coincides with the engagement of her former long-time boyfriend Ryan Reynolds to Scarlett Johansson. This girl can't get a break can she?

Link

Aiden cancels remainder of tour.

This is not so much on the new side - but we hadn't posted it yet. Avenged Sevenfold video for "Afterlife".

Link it like you mean it

Alanis Morissette inducted into Canadian Music Hall of Fame. I think this is funny. What took so long? I mean, how many canadian artists are there? Really? Like 10 total?

Link

Lily Allen plans an early retirement.

Link

RHCP bassist Flea loses home to California fires.

Link


His voice just ain't what it used to be - but that's what happens when you're performing at 200 years old. I <3>

I normally wouldn't write about a band like Extreme however, it reminds me of a funny story. When I was in high school I was at a friends house and his little brother was in the shower and was singing "More Than Words" at the top of his lungs and didn't realize everyone in the house could hear him - hilarious.

Link

Coheed announce more tour dates with Linkin Park.

Link

I don't want to say "I told you so" because it's actually kind of sad. Lukas Rossi really should have known better...

Link

More drama for Marilyn Manson.

Don Vito is on suicide watch after he was charged with 2 felony counts of sexual assault on a child.

Link

I love how Alanis picks wierd-ass projects to be a part of.

Link

Apparently Steve from Blue's Clues isn't dead but was/is apparently in a band. He kind of looks like AJ from the Backstreet Boys.

Link

Ozzy has released a statement that he didn't have anything to do with the sting operation carried out at a "concert pre-party" yesterday. I understand why he's mad but I'm kind of bummed to find out he wasn't trying to catch a bunch of court-date ditching losers.

Link

Almost Impossible is right. This quiz is so hard that I only got 23 right and was still considered a "whiz."

Link

Metallica talks new album.

Link

Jimmy Page has broken his finger thusly the Led Zep reunion tour has been postponed but fear not you lucky ticket holders out there. There will NOT be another lottery.

Stupid or asshole? They're both pretty bad.

Stupid #1)

Remember when Alanis Morissette made that hi-larious "My Humps" video? Well, Fergalicious has responded by sending Alanis a cake shaped like an ass - yes, as in, a butt and a note that read, "Alanis, You're a genius, Love, Fergie." I can't tell is she was trying to be clever or trying to me mature - either way, she still pees her pants. Yes, I like to take the low-road sometimes. ;)
Speaking of being a shit singer - someone has given Fergie (not Stacy, bitches!!!) the right to cover Barracuda. I shed a single tear like the native american in those litter commercials from a hundred years ago.


Stupid #2)

Bill Wyman, formerly of The Rolling Stones has created his own metal detector. Uhh...ok, that's random.

Asshole #3)

Sully Erna of Godsmack has commented in reference to his collision which put 25 year old Lindsey Taylor in the hospital. In a statement from his manager Erna claimed he was "shaken up" and that "He's deeply concerned for the girl who was hurt in this unfortunate accident." He then went on to say that on Saturday afternoon, Sully be appearing at Borders to sign copies of his memoir, "The Paths We Choose."

I would like to point out a few things here:

1.) He's "shaken up?" How about the girl in the coma? I think you should be a little more than "deeply concerned." How about deeply regretful?

2.) "...for the girl who was hurt...?" Let's try "for the girl who could die and who is currently in a coma."

3.) Take notice of the fact that they didn't miss an opportunity to get his new book some press. For someone who almost killed someone by running over them with their gas-guzzling Hummer one would imagine you would cancel your book signing escapades, but, that's just me I guess.

4.) Why does he have a memoir? Who f**king cares? Really? You're short. You have a wierd beard. Your band has like, 2 good songs. You're a wiccan who ironically doesn't care anything about the enviornment (isn't that part of being a wiccan - or am I way off base here) hence the Hummer. You almost killed someone with your tank you call a car.
Yup, I think that just about sums it up.
