    The Residents

    Despite a recording career spanning four decades, the Residents have successfully - and deliberately - achieved an air of wilful obscurity. Mindful of the cult of personality, they studiously retain an anonymity and refuse to name personnel, thus ensuring total artistic freedom. The most common d...

    Mew: The World’s Only Indie Stadium Band?

    08-24-2009 by ShockHound

    Interview by Nadine Cheung With a decade and a half under their belts, Danish trio Mew pretty much have license to do whatever they want. Case in point? Their 23-word title of their new album: No More Stories/Are Told Today/I’m Sorry/They Washed Away/No More Stories/The World Is Grey/I’m Tired/Let’s Wash Away.     Yes, that’s real. Taken from the lyrics of their track “Hawaii Dream,” the lengthy title is yet another example of ho...

    Robyn Hitchcock: Luminous and Groovy

    08-28-2008 by ShockHound

    Interview by Dan EpsteinWhat a long, strange trip it’s been for Robyn Hitchcock. After first emerging in the late 1970s with psychedelic pop purveyors the Soft Boys, Hitchcock became an alt-rock cult hero in the ’80s, thanks to solo records like 1984’s I Often Dream of Trains, and several classic albums recorded with his ace backing band, the Egyptians, including 1985’s Fegmania!, 1986’s Element of Light and 1988’s Globe of Frogs. He spent the ’90s recording for major labels (first with A&...

    Michael Jackson: 1958-2009

    06-26-2009 by ShockHound

    It’s an unlikely twist of fate that just as Michael Jackson was set to pull off the biggest comeback of an artist in history, the legendary performer died suddenly from an alleged cardiac arrest. Unknown to many was that just one night earlier, Jackson had performed a stunning rehearsal at the Staples Center. All who saw the performance were electrified and convinced that the King of Pop was back. Unfortunately this would not be the case. Since the tragic moment of his passing at 2:26 pm on J...

    ShockHound Presents: Your 2010 Coachella Roundup

    04-14-2010 by ShockHound

    COACHELLA — DAY THREEDear Coachella Organizers,We saw some great bands this weekend, and we had a blast dancing our asses off — but if you wanted to increase capacity to 75,000 per day (who are you trying to compete with, Glastonbury?), you should have planned accordingly. We heard numerous complaints all weekend about bands being placed on too small a stage, or fans passing out from being too crammed into a tent; when people are fainting during a mellow band like Beach House, you’ve got to k...

    Kings of Leon: High On Life

    10-31-2008 by ShockHound

    Interview Tom LanhamChronologically, Kings of Leon frontman Caleb Followill clocks in at a whippersnapperish 26. But inside, he sighs, he feels more like 36. Because — while it hasn’t necessarily been blipping on Stateside radar over the past few years — this Southern family band hit it big in Britain with its rowdy ’03 debut Youth And Young Manhood and has been going great guns overseas ever since.  Lumped in with the Strokes, White Stripes and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs as part of a great Ame...
