You can tell Conana isn’t into this when he’s introducing Weezer . Then you can tell I’m not into it by me puking everywhere while they’re playing. I never thought a day would come when I’d be begging for another green album…

How come Frank Black looks like he’s 10 years younger than the rest of the Pixies ? I guess it’s that whole not eating meat thing. Or maybe he’s one of those soul vampires, and he sucks the life out of tweens and old people. Either one is a tenable position.

Since we’re all getting ready for Thanksgiving and what not, things will likely start slowing down a big around Buzzgrinder today. But we’ll still have a little something for y’all. Just like this clip of Wolfmother on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night.

Buzzgrinder spoke with Murder By Death frontman Adam Turla recently (i.e. four minutes ago) about singing real low/high, playing live, their label and Texas (which we’ll be posting in the next day or so) — plus he gave us a little tidbit that might get folks chomping at the ...

I was intensely scrutinizing this and half-expecting a zombie to pop up (trust not the jpg extension). But sadly it never came — kind of like my online Creative Writing degree, in the mail.

Even though they’ve only put out two proper albums, Fucked Up certainly isn’t wanting for new material. When you take a look at a discography, you’d think they’ve been around for a couple of decades based on the sheer number.
So it’s no surprise that the ...

Hey, Black Friday is coming up. A day where we spend assloads of money we don’t have, right after a day where we flaunt our bloated bodies to the rest of the world who may or may not have enough food to survive. God bless ‘mairca! And apparently Black Friday is also Box Set Friday. ...

Not sure why, but I get a sense of desperation from The Sounds in this video, and not the good kind. I’m talking about the kind where you “accidentally” leave things at your ex’s apartment again and again so you have an excuse to go back and see her, hoping that ...

:: Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine did the forward to a book about influential metal songs. My guess is it goes something like this: “These songs are pretty influential and all, but they aren’t as good as most of my music. Especially those Metallica songs.”

Our affinity for So Many Dynamos has been well-documented this year. I mean, we did stream their new album, The Loud Wars , and let the dudes take over Buzzgrinder for a day , after all (which provided what might well be my favorite BG post of the year ).
So it makes me happy that the ...

This is an “interesting” video (skateboard on hamburgers, cops chasing dude in a SpongeBob costume, guy bathing in a tub of Fruity Pebbles — you know, that old chestnut), which is what I’d expect from a Charlotte Gainsbourg / Beck team-up.
But the 1:26 mark ...

MySpace Music — not the actual music pages for bands, but the wannabe Muxtape/LaLa/Spotify service — was relegated to offering tunes from major labels (and a few indies) since its inception in 2008. However, they’d been in talks with indie label representatives Merlin to ...

Hmm, $9.95… nah, that’s still more than I’d pay for even a limited quantity of Avett Brothers .

So I think The Appleseed Cast is trying to make me feel like I’m in high school again. Or at least that’s my guess, since the band has decided to not only bust out some songs from Low Level Owl 1 and 2 , but to play the two volumes that were a soundtrack to my melancholic late ...

:: Westboro Baptist Church is finally doing something that deserves a pat on the back — picketing an All Time Low concert .

As if having new Coalesce material wasn’t reason enough to change your pants, the ability to own said material on vinyl certain is. That’s why someone should pre-order the OXEP 12-inch for me, today being my birthday and all.
The only crappy part is that you can’t order ...

The list of bands on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon just keeps getting better and better. I don’t know if Fallon consistently has better musical guests than Conan did, but it’s at least neck and neck this early on in Jimmy’s late night career.

This is a toughy. Morrissey recently kicked out a fan for saying “fuck you” after Moz made a joke about Hamburgers (i.e. citizens of Hamburg, Germany, the city he was playing) should be called Hamburgists. Why is this tough? Well, if you’re going to tell such a ...

Melt Banana melted my banana, or something like that. Of all the acts I saw at Fun Fun Fun Fest, I think these dudes were the most awkwardly engaging. I’d always heard that their live show put their recordings to shame — and sure enough, it did.
