Weekend Songs: AC/DC, 'You Shook Me All Night Long'

Jeff Giles — Sat, 15 Jun 2013 21:24:01 +0000

Classic rock is about heavy hooks, power chords and tight harmonies. But it’s also about letting loose and enjoying the good times. And there’s no better time for that than Friday evening, when we pick up our paycheck, punch out of work and enjoy a couple days of much-needed rest and relaxation. Good times were [...]

Tool's 'Lateralus' Revamped Into Imaginative Guitar Percussion Cover

Graham 'Gruhamed' Hartmann — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 18:03:15 +0000

Tool fans, prepare to be impressed. One of the band's signature tracks, 'Lateralus,' which we recently named the greatest metal song of the 21st century, has been covered acoustically by musician Sambo Ray Jr. Putting your own spin on the complex 'Lateralus' is impressive enough, but Sambo doesn't only cover the part of Adam Jones, he brings the role of drummer Danny Carey into the mix.

Band Kid Has the Best Reaction Ever to Breaking Cymbal

Emerald Catron — Tue, 04 Jun 2013 17:15:04 +0000

Playing the crash cymbals for the 'Star Spangled Banner' in your school band is kind of a big deal. It's definitely the most dramatic part of the song, and it only gets more dramatic when one of the cymbals breaks. What does one do when such a nightmare occurs? Take a cue from this kid who handled the situation like a bawse.

If you know anyone who has ever been in a band, you know how awful an independently done music video can be. Hell, if you’ve seen R. Kelly’s ‘Trapped In The Closet,’ you know how epically terrible professional music videos can be. Turns out, all bands need to do is hire cinematographer Jim Meegan. Meegan [...]

The Rolling Stones Rock Chicago

Dave Lifton — Mon, 03 Jun 2013 11:00:07 +0000

Chicago has held a special pull for the Rolling Stones from before the group even existed. Mick Jagger was famously carrying albums from Chicago-based Chess Records when he ran into his childhood pal Keith Richards at the Dartford railway station in 1960. It began a partnership that, 53 years later, brought them back to the city on May 31, the second night of a
