Weekly Album Release Parties! :: Releases for January 19th, 2009
I hope you have your dancing chanclas on because this week … isn’t anything to write home about. Okay, so with the exception of Vampire Weekend’s Contra, there hasn’t been much to talk about in the music world. But hey, we’re only two weeks into January! So let’s be patient and appreciate what’s out for …
Vampire Weekend :: "Contra"
Though I’ve heard much about Vampire Weekend, I hadn’t actually heard the band until recently when MySpace premiered their latest album exclusively. Contra is full of pop and new wave influences, making it a great listen. Especially for when you’re out on a nice spring day!
Adventures in L.A. :: Santa Monica Pier and Promenade
I have a brilliant idea! We’ve said here at EnterTheShell.com that this whole project is not only about music, but life as well. Therefore, some blogs will be written focusing on the lives of your bloggers instead of the music. Well, since we are based and live in the beautiful city of Los Angeles, it’s …
Weekly Album Release Parties! :: Releases for January 12th, 2009
Hey, ETSers! Well, we’re back after taking a short hiatus for the New Year, but it’s okay because no one really released anything worth mentioning anyway. Well, not to my standards. Actually, Kanye West released his Vh1 Storytellers appearance on CD/DVD yesterday, but judging by the mass reaction to his little outburst, I’m sure you …
Pinback :: "Autumn of the Seraphs"
I’ve been a huge fan of Blink 182 for years, so when Mark Hoppus started his own podcast, I was all into it. He discussed life and music, much like EnterTheShell.com … Only, ours is insanely better. At any rate, he took it upon himself to introduce his fans to artists you may not hear otherwise or that you would have to search for.
Covers Revue, Vol. 22 – Whitney Houston covers "I Will Always Love You" :: Originally by Dolly Parton
Whitney Houston is more than just a lover and baker of (cocaine) brownies, y’all. I’m not sure if you remember, but Houston has an amazing voice! It’s powerful, full of range and instantly recognizable. This is displayed in her huge hit, “I Will Always Love You,” which came off the soundtrack of her movie, “The …
The Best (and Worst) Albums of 2009, According to Sara
Well, it’s that time of year. Everybody is compiling their lists of Top What-Nots. As for me, I’ve never done such a thing. Such a thing is foreign to me. Listing things from descending order of awesomest to crappiest? That’s too much thinking! But for you, ETSers, anything. 2009 was a great year of discovering …
Covers Revue, Vol. 21 – Mike Ness covers "Don't Think Twice (It's All Right)" :: Originally by Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan. Many will agree that that name is synonymous with “influential musician.” Mike Ness certainly believes so, as he delves more into his Country roots with his debut solo, Cheating at Solitaire. The Social Distortion singer/songwriter pays homage to Dylan with his cover of “Don’t Think Twice (It’s All Right).” Bob Dylan’s “Don’t Think …
Jay-Z :: "The Blueprint 3"
Did you really believe Jay-Z when he called “retire”? Honestly, rappers retiring is about as meaningful as Favre or Jordan retiring. At any rate, many people were stoked that “today’s Frank Sinatra” came back from retirement with the next installment of his catalog, The Blueprint 3.
