The Dears Preparing A New Album

Montreal rockers The Dears have announced that they are set to release a new album this February, called Degeneration Street.

The album will be the group’s fifth full-length and will be out Feb. 15th on Dangerbird Records. The album sees the group returning to the orchestral pop/rock that made them loved nationally. You can catch the first single off the record, called “Omega Dog”, performed live in Mexico City right here.

The band will be performing Degeneration Street live in Brooklyn for two nights in November. The band is doing it to raise money for War Child International, an organization that helps children who have seen the horrors of war. If this seems like a good cause (it is) and The Dears seem like a great band (they are), check them out…

Playtime!: Brian Bonz @ His Brooklyn Rehearsal Studio – CMJ 2010


We had the amazing opportunity of filming Brian Bonz on the last day of CMJ at his Brooklyn Rehearsal space. Bonz and his incredible band played a couple of songs for us and we couldn’t ask for a better way to end all of our festival filmings. Sit back, relaz, and enjoy the soothing and incredible music of Brian Bonz. (ps. stay tuned for the interview!)

Playtime!: Golden Bloom & Neutral Uke Hotel Perform on North 6th Street in Brooklyn @ CMJ 2010


We had the pleasure of filming the boys of Golden Bloom / Neutral Uke Hotel during CMJ for our Playtime! performances. The band was ready to play wherever they could and we think hands down, this is our favorite set in the series so far. It examplifies what we strive for with Playtime! The people walking back and fourth fit perfectly with the songs and it oddly seems like they should actually be there. Nothing got in the way of the boys when it came to pouring their hearts and souls into the music…not even the dog that was sitting by watching them. Well, maybe he did. Check out the two videos below. One song they play as Golden Bloom and the next, as Neutral Uke Hotel.

Former Ghosts Premier New Video, Album On The Way

Former Ghosts are releasing a new album November 9th and in order to prepare you for it, they have come out with a new video.

You can catch the video for the song “Taurean Nature” right here. The video features Freddy Ruppert impersonating Elvis, although not quite in the way you’d expect. It’s not very flattering, and features a lot of junk food.

Furthermore, Former Ghosts are giving a sneak peek (or listen, as it were) of their upcoming album New Love over at Self Titled Magazine. Check out the link here and look for Former Ghosts latest full-length November 9th.
