Despite his embrace of the sensitive-bearded-guy-with-a-guitar routine, Matt Pond’s music employs myriad subtle styles and colorful ornamentation paddling beneath the placid surface of his music. Since forming Matt Pond PA in 1998, this Pennsylvania native (duh) continues to use his eponymous band as a vehicle to harness a creative mix…

Most of us were introduced to the Bloody Beetroots thanks to the track “Warp,” an aural terrorism attack complete with explosive tick-tocking backbeat, a hook that consists only of the words “Whoop! Whoop!,” and punk rock shrieks courtesy of Steve Aoki. It wasn’t exactly groundbreaking, but the kids loved it,…

Don’t try to adjust your television screen: Yes, that is Miami native Pitbull hocking cameras to the public. But has Mr. 305 sold out? Will he go the way of Shaq and start doing Icy Hot and Comcast commercials? We hope not. What makes these commercials kinda cool is the…
If you go totally fanatic for lightly operatic folk songs sung by candlelight, rollicking guitar-and-drum anthems for googly-eyed weirdos, and surging squalls of epic rock ‘n’ roll, then last night’s Roofless Records show at Sweat would’ve rubbed your eardrums in all the right ways. The lineup: (1) Quiet acoustic cover…
Reggaeton has pretty closely mimicked the rise to prominence of hip-hop. It started early in the streets of Puerto Rico, a rougher, edgier version of the club bouncers you hear today and it was known then simply as “underground.” But the mixtapes and guerrilla-style bootlegs of early pioneers has given…
We all have dads. Some of us don’t know our daddies, but it’s the undeniable truth that we all have fathers, and almost all of them listen to some type of dad-rock band. When you type “dad rock” into Wikipedia, you will be redirected to the “classic rock” section. In…

Unfortunately for all of you slipping on your yacht shoes and rolling fat doobies in anticipation of this Friday’s Eagles show, your prep is premature. The news off the wire is Don Henley has fallen ill, forcing three tour dates to be rescheduled. In fact, the bands’s Long Road Out…
Hey, ladies. If you haven’t already flipped through a full issue of Dimepiece (or rocked a thong, high heels, and hoop earrings in its pages), let us explain: This is the kind of printed matter often described as “a gentlemen’s magazine.” And no, we don’t mean porn. Go ahead, peek…
In this week’s issue, we preview the Bloody Beetroots’ upcoming show at Mansion on October 13. In the pantheon of electro-house, the Italian duo seemed to have arrived a bit late to the game, but were still able to put their mark thanks in large part to the strength of…
Some bands just make music. But others like joyful tribe Bird Names are also expert makers of spiritual experiences, delicious snacks (see photo, right), and organic aroma-therapeutic soap. “It’s good soap. Only $5. People have come to our shows just to buy the soap,” says pitchman and guitarist David Lineal…
Bryan “Birdman” Williams is one half of the Williams brothers who own Cash Money Records, the record label responsible for bringing some of the biggest southern hip-hop artists like Lil Wayne to the world. The label was formerly based in New Orleans, but after the 2005 Hurricane Katrina disaster, the…
Remember back in the day when you were in college trollin’ for hotties and scoping the quad for something fresh to do on your lunch break? We sure do, but unfortunately those memories came sans free live music. Call us old, or call our colleges boring. But luckily we can…
For any fan true fan of hip-hop music, you have a handful of people to thank for your favorite genre: Run DMC, 2 Live Crew, Public Enemy, and of course A Tribe Called Quest. During its heyday, this quintessential rap collective released eight albums, earned serious Billboard success, and infused…
