The Ting Tings have been nominated for an MTV Music Video Award, and it’s a biggy. They are up for video of the year with Shut Up And Let Me Go, against the likes of Britney Spears, Chris Brown, The Pussycat Trannies Dolls, and The Jonas Brothers.
Nominations were announced after MTV.com readers voted for their […]

Did that headline grab your attention? That was the intention. Unfortunately, rather than having an exclusive scoop on U.S. presidential hopeful Barack Obama having an affair with Joss Stone, it was just figuratively speaking.
The actual news is almost as bizarre though, as it seems Democratic candidate Obama has chosen Stone to record his election […]

Amy Winehouse may have had her theme tune for the next James Bond film, Quantum Of Solace, rejected recently in favour of a composition from The White Stripes Jack White and Alicia Keys, but she’s not going to take the matter lying down (in a gutter).

The Stone Roses are one of the best bands to have ever come out of Britain, but their musical legacy was pitifully small due to only two albums being produced before they split up. Although that was way back in 1996, there have been numerous calls for them to reunite from the public and band […]

We knew it was going to happen, but now that it has, it’s kind of sad. The Police announced back in May that their last date on this current tour was going to be their final gig ever, and so it has come to pass. They played Madison Square Gardens last night, and that it […]

Amy Winehouse‘ dad Mitch, an ever present in the media since his daughter started receiving some often unfair criticism and coverage, is to host his own show on BBC Radio London. And guess what - Amy has decided to play agony aunt for the day.
I wasn’t that surprised when I read that Mitch Winehouse had […]

Kaiser Chiefs have revealed details about their forthcoming album, including the name, track listing, and special guests. But on the same day, they have described the British Indie scene as “very, very boring”. But that doesn’t include them, obviously.
Kaiser Chiefs third studio album is to be called Off With Their Heads, and will be released […]

Stereophonics have always been a favourite of mine, although the amount of love I have for them has varied with each album and change of personnel. They started off brilliantly with Word Gets Around and Performance and Cocktails, both classic albums full of hits straddling the rock and pop genres superbly.
Then came that dodgy period […]

When Radiohead offered their new album In Rainbows, for free through their website last year, many industry analysts and bigwigs watched the results very closely to see if the model was workable. The album has since been released on physical formats but the download experiment gained Radiohead a lot of new fans and masses of […]

I wrote back in June about how Keane were eagerly finishing work on their new album, the follow up to 2006’s Under The Iron Sea. At the time not much was known about the album, with no name, no track listing, and no real details. But now the band have put some meat on the […]
