Panic! At The Disco have released a wicked awesome (hey, we’re from Boston) new song and it’s called “Hallelujah”! “Show praise with your body / Stand up / Sing hallelujah,” sings/demands frontman/preacher Brandon Urie, telling you to say your freakin’ prayers already. And it’s so very good that you might just bow down and worship…

Much to our surprise, Neon Jungle, the UK’s “it” girl group of 2013, has called it splitsville already. That’s right, the London quartet consisting of Shereen Cutkelvin, Jess Plummer, Asami Zdrenka and Amira McCarthy have officially broken up, this after their debut album, Welcome to the Jungle, hit No. 8 on the Official U.K. Albums Chart just…

“Break Me Down” is the light, jangly and delicious new single by Paul Smith and The Imitations, Paul Smith being Maxïmo Park’s frontman. “You can break me down / Catch a plane / And I’ll meet you in the middle,” he sings joyously during the hooky chorus. It’s not the deepest song he’s ever sung,…

Once in a while a band comes along that’s so good you wonder how you ever lived without them. I remember feeling that way when I discovered Motley Crue and Guns ‘N’ Roses as a kid, or The Killers and Franz Ferdinand a decade ago. During more recent years, I stopped getting that feeling. I…

“Wildfire” is the second single from Laura Burhenn, aka The Mynabirds, upcoming third album Lovers Know and it’s an infectious little ditty if ever there was one. Often, The Mynabirds music features politically-themed, or otherwise serious, subject matter. But this passionate, uptempo love song shows Burhenn’s lighter side, which I found refreshing.

It seems like just yesterday my parents and I were at The Beach Boys’ 50th Anniversary Concert and I was listening to the group’s excellent comeback album, That’s Why God Made The Radio. But that was 2012 — time seems to fly even faster than they say it does. But now Brian Wilson is back…

I first encountered The Ballroom Thieves’ music when I was preparing to cover the Boston Calling music festival last month, checking out the bands I wasn’t already familiar with on Spotify. I was so impressed with their debut album, A Wolf In The Doorway, that I promptly bought their album from iTunes, as I still believe…
