Taking a queue from art-meets-nightmares ala Nine Inch Nails, Rusko has released a new music video for “Lick the Lizard,” the b-side to the “Everyday” single out that is due out on April 5th on Mad Decent.
KBuzz Video of the Day – Metronomy “The Look”
Metronomy kicks off our new feature, KBuzz Video of the Day, which will feature spanking new and unique music videos we feel deserve a look and listen, along with old favorites, the weird, the funny, the ingenious, or the just plain stupid. As we all know from reality TV, stupid can be entertaining too […]
Hindershot – It’s Only Blood – Hot Congress
Goldenboy – Sleepwalker
Goldenboy’s Shon Sullivan has been a busy man as the go-to-guy for filling out a group’s touring band, including the likes of Bright Eyes, Neil Finn, Stephen Malkmus and Grandaddy. But he’s found time to follow up his 2006 album, Underneath the Radio, with the new Sleepwalker (Eenie Meenie Records).
Lyrics Born – As You Were
From the onset forward, As You Were (Decon Records) strikes with anthems of frustration and breakthrough; and this is accurately Lyrics Born’s intention with this new album: a documentation of overcoming indecision in a world where “the global economy shit its pants” and the record industry was in flux (and Lyrics Born has hence ditched […]

Diego Paulo – Cafe Con Leche
Sentence – There and Back
Hip-hop and rap are friends again. Sentence reigns from Denver with a real mix of real turntables, real beats, real samples and real rap. It’s refreshing to hear something so classic. There and Back is what it says: a trip back to the time when rap was built in a basement with live scratches (cred […]
Let’s Wrestle – In The Court Of Wrestling Let’s
When reading a band’s bio, nine times out of ten there’s an “art-school-meets-guitars” moment in there somewhere. The “thing” that brought the band together. But meat and records; that is a new one. That seems to be the way the menz in Let’s Wrestle bonded. Meat and records, dice and fruit cake, Twinkies and […]
