Arcade Fire knows what they’re doing. They’re no longer striving to be the cool kids who mask their naivete with denim jackets and Doc Martens (although their current tour get-ups are plenty cool with exactly those items). They no longer need to shout their lyrics to be heard; people are listening.
E.'s middle schooler gives us a lesson in Girl Power with this alt/indie/kickass playlist, featuring Best Coast, Etta James, Hinds, the Vivian Girls and mas mucho muchachas.
With lead Luke Spiller, The Struts could be anything it wants to be. It’s clearly been seen by their handlers already. That’s a good thing. People with influence and the power to shape the band have done a nice job to date. They have a star on their hands. They know it.
M.'s busy this week. Like, looking for a place and working and shit. Still, he managed to see gothic songstress Chelsea Wolfe at L.A.'s Teragram Ballroom on Wednesday night...
I’m sitting in a bar in Dallas with a thumb war challenge staring me down. Now, I love me some good warring challenges but the loser has to eat a full box of Bacon & Cheese Crickets (a real thing in Texas) and this has my brain and intestines spinning. This is not going to mix well with my vodka...
We at EvilTapo are about the music and the joy that it brings to our lifestyles. And last week, BeeGee of the EvilTapo ministry was fortunate to spend a good chunk of time immersed in The Cure’s three-night residency at the Hollywood Bowl, witnessing a mind-blowing performance each and every evening.
Question: How did this introverted English alt-group (all in their late 40’s+) strangle the attention of any and every music-obsessed maniac in the world and out-maneuver all the marketing people who knew better?
You have to give Paul Tollett credit. He not only created Coachella but curates who we see every year. It’s the first festival of the year and it’s a beautiful event. Goldenvoice (GV) is on their game 24/7 and they set the tone and artist schedule for everything that happens for the year in every festival in North America and beyond. Don't believe me? Look at LCD Soundsystem...
At last night's show for The Last Shadow Puppets, the beautiful, dreamy opening act, Alexandra Savior, sang of love and Hollywood problems with a nonchalance knowing, her voice sweet and sultry, sometimes reminiscent of Lana del Rey, sometimes not...
The Last Shadow Puppets, a side project of charismatic heartthrob Alex Turner (frontman of the Arctic Monkeys) and singer/guitarist Miles Kane (formerly of the Rascals), may not be well-known to those outside the mainstream Arctic Monkeys circles, and that's perfectly fine by TLSP devotees...
I loathe The 1975. Ask EvilTapo; we've had many, many conversations about how their particular brand of screed makes my ears bleed (and not in a good way).
Hinds [FKA Deers (FKA = formerly known as; you’re welcome)] is a group of four young women from Madrid, Spain, whose jangly garage grungy songs are mostly in English. They sing about…
I love LA. I do. And the Best Coast/Waaves/Cherry Glazerr show at the Fonda was like a celebration of grungy garage punk, with a careless sprinkle of sugary lyrics on top.
