Really? We mean, really? The Situation is still hooked on the Sammi and Ronnie fight drug? As if this guy needed to play himself out any more like the bored, oversexed, tan and drama-addicted freak show that he is, this finale episode opens to just that. He’s on the duck…
Pink Floyd is a band that is often imitated. The San Diego sextet known as The Pink Floyd Experience, led by vocalist and guitarist Tom Quinn, takes its version of the seminal band to the next level, as it regurgitates the Floyd catalog with expert precision, while the accompanying video…
It’s true: Drums, guitar, bass and a vintage NES can collide and create gorgeous music together. Pete Berkman, the 22-year-old behind the part-chiptune, part-traditional rock band Anamanaguchi says it was as simple as his own high school-age realization that what Weezer and dudes behind Mega Man 2 were doing was…
Drag queen Joel Valenzuela, aka Angelina Essex, came out of retirement two years ago at the request of friend (and RuPaul’s Drag Race participant) Nina Flowers to perform in Flowers’s new monthly show, Drama Drag, at Tracks Nightclub, 3500 Walnut Street. Now Valenzuela is once again stepping out of the…
On Monday, we shared that the city had officially decided it was time to give Lodo patrons and residents a break by extending metered parking to cover overnight stays. This is great, considering the prior hassle of trying to move a car off the street by 2 a.m., especially if…
Metal has gone in some diverse directions in the past few decades, and Knoxville’s Whitechapel grows from the harsh and speedy thread of deathcore. The band pulls from an artillery of three guitarists to underlay vocalist Ben Savage’s deep and throaty screams, which come in several tonal layers on Whitechapel’s…

On record, Telekinesis is essentially the one man show of Michael Lerner, who writes, plays and sings every part. For live shows, however, the Merge recording artist brings a small cadre of musical souls with him to recreate the simple beauty of his straightforward love songs, while he plays the…
Marc Black loves you, Rachel Maddow.Oh, wow. This dude loves Rachel Maddow.

Though he starts out by…
Formed over two decades ago, Ireland’s Saw Doctors are an enduring force in that country’s popular music, but when the band tours stateside, fans come out in droves. The line-up has fluctuated a bit since its 1986 inception, but The Saw Doctors have stayed true to their solid rock and…
It is somewhat hard to believe that Good Charlotte has been together — and, with few line-up changes, to boot — since 1996. But the proto-mall punk band found its not-too harsh edge early into its career and has been riding that sweet spot ever since, with radio-ready songs about…
Oh gee, really? Do we have to open episode twelve by continuing the Sammi and Ronnie blowout from last week? At this point, the relationship toxicity isn’t even remotely entertaining–in fact, we kind of wish it would all implode on itself again and make them both disappear. But instead, we’ll…
[jump] But it isn’t just that Dina is trying to educate us on how to “dance hip-hop” that is so disturbing–it is her weird desire to align with the hip-hop community over things like baggy-pants discrimination at clubs. She also discusses the fact that while growing up, her mother didn’t…
This evening at the Fox Theatre, Ohio’s own trance-infused The Werks is throwing down its twisted, technical guitar-noodling sounds for a reasonable price, and it seemed like the perfect pairing for this most sacred of boozing holidays. The four-piece combines elements of funk, electronica, Afro-beat and even a little nod…
“The world’s only Rocky Mountain Jewgrass band” will take over Lannie’s Clocktower Cabaret, 1601 Arapahoe Street, at 7 p.m. tonight for The Purim Show, an evening of singing, dancing, drinking and the celebratory consumption of hamentaschen. In fact, we’d like to point out that the three-pointed pastries will not only…
The Mysterious Mr. Love, which opens tonight at the Grant-Humphreys Mansion, has been in the works for some time. Friends and actors Rachel Fowler, Leigh Miller and Jeffrey Roark had been looking for the perfect play on which to collaborate, and once they settled on this script, they had to…
What if, in a perfect world, the music genre you love the most was the only one in existence and lived on forever? Steel Panther imagines this to be true, and tonight the glammish four-piece brings a full-on heavy-metal throwback show to Denver. The best part? Steel Panther isn’t just…

It has been a long journey for Civil Twilight — from South Africa to Los Angeles to Nashville, the band has been towing its sweeping, piano-heavy rock compositions along for more than a decade. Even if the band’s moniker isn’t immediately familiar, its big sound, which has been featured on…
The brainchild of guitarist and vocalist Adam Granduciel, The War On Drugs came to be almost a decade ago and has seen it’s share of line-up changes — Kurt Vile was a longtime member — but has consistently created a sort of Americana-meets-Sonic-Youth sound. Last year’s Future Weather EP continued…
When Arctic Monkeys announced it would be hitting the road in May and releasing its fourth album, Suck It And See, in June, I immediately started thinking about MySpace, or the awesome site that once was. While its predominant function as a social networking site has been taken over by…
