We all know that meat is murder thanks to both the nature of what meat actually is (you know, dead animal flesh) and the vegetarian wails of sad pop king Morrissey. But now the quirky musical god has hit new levels of dietary restriction. As The Daily Mirror explains, “Stunned…
Just because Miami doesn’t have any alternative music on the radio, it doesn’t mean the city isn’t producing radio-worthy rock. Alukard has been making the 305 headbang since forming in 2003. And now with its freshly digitized (iTunes, Amazon, CD Baby) second album Vigilante Justice, new friends on the Fresh…
Torche With Big Business and Helms Alee Churchill’s Pub Tuesday, July 12, 2011 Better Than: Staying home and watching Easy Rider. As to be expected, most practitioners of stoner rock are pretty lazy. We don’t care how blazed you are, man, but jams can not live on one-riff. That’s why…
After awhile, reggaeton groups can start to seem the like the same old thang. But whether it’s because they’re clever or just lucky, Jowell y Randy have got some weird shit going on that grabs our attention. Here are three things about J&R that really make us cock our heads…
Leonardo Valencia used to cook brunch for his broke friends in Brooklyn with his ex-wife Didi. She’s a pastry chef and he’s a former culinary school attendee whose favorite thing to make is breakfast. And one day, these two cooks realized that the most delicious garnish for eggs is Motown…
Electronic music producers Michael Vincent Patrick and Theodore Paul Nelson, better known as Designer Drugs, represent the grimy underground club scene of the New York-Philly axis. Don’t expect to ever find them there, though. Almost as soon as Patrick and Nelson began the project, halfway through the last decade, they…
For a tag team that hails from the city where Puritans landed, where Paul Revere rode his horse, and where tea was dumped in that infamous harbor, Soul Clap knows its roots. Of course, we’re talking about the P-Funk Mothership, which Eli Goldstein and Charlie Levin say transported them to…
Who would’ve pegged Weezer’s Rivers Cuomo for a cruise enthusiast? But in a YouTube commercial posted today, the emo icon appears ocean-ready (no Buddy Holly glasses) and dressed in a totally Carnival-appropriate outfit (crappy baseball cap and striped, navy-blue polo) to announce that he’s gone crazy for the cruising life…
What exactly does it mean to “get your island on”? Well, we here at Crossfade spend most of our time on the mainland. But we’re guessing it involves sun, sand, lots of baby oil, coconut bikinis, banana hammocks, consenting adults, and a safe, moderate, and very responsible amount of alcohol…
She is a 52-year-old British singer who hadn’t put out an album in ten years. And yet we all instantly recognize the name Sade. No doubt, her enduring popularity is fueled by a few iconic 1980s hits. But over the years, she’s cultivated a legion of loyal followers that follows…
Oh, you irresponsible little raver … The Identity Festival is still one month, two weeks, and a couple of hours away. And yet you’ve already blown 90 percent of your loose change on bad drugs and bottled water, party paraphernalia (gas masks, top hat, Caution tape, etc.), and an entire…
A good party always has a theme. Everyone’s already seen each other horrifically drunk, like, a million times. So unless you’re getting folks to dress up like their favorite sun-slash-sex god to compete in an alcoholic sporting event (say beer pong or vodka pole vaulting), you’re going to end up…
He’s a DJ-booth whore — getting in and out of venues all over Miami while charming crowds with dirty house, electro, and open-format tracks. And now it’s time for all of us to wish local DJ Troy Kurtz a happy birthday as he kicks off his b-day celebration by spitting…
Now … If you’ve been paying attention to the lively debate (i.e bitchfest) that’s hijacked Crossfade since Friday, you’ll know that Forward Motion Records CEO and Dreaming in Stereo frontman Fernando Perdomo thinks noise music is crap. But he also kinda sorta doesn’t think noise is crap. Additionally, you’ll know…
