“My So Called Nineties”

November 6th, 2007 · No Comments

Our affinity and nostalgia for the 90’s is no secret here at Vicariousmusic… so when we came across this we just had to share.

It’s a fun little “where are they now” of 90’s indie rock royalty instigated by the box set DVD release of “My So Called Life”.  Enjoy!

Green Day Defends Fallen Princess of Pop

November 6th, 2007 · No Comments

Billie Joe Armstrong claims Britney Spears is “a manufactured child” who has been “thrown to the lions” by the world’s media. continue reading…

 seems like everyone’s weighing in and trying to excuse this broad’s behaviours…But not for nothing Billie Joe, you’ve been the center of Rock/Pop limelight more than once and have managed to raise a child (quite well I may add) and hold together a family (his wife is essentially his high school sweetheart)…

Looking like Brit’s poised for the number 1 position on the top 200 charts this week…she’s currently on point to debut with 350k albums.

Laugh it up Brit, turns out this is all on a technicality.  This week’s true #1 title rightfully belongs to The Eagles who are estimated to be selling 700k by tomorrow.  Their exclusive sales deal with Wal-Mart prevents them from charting.

Return of The Verve

November 6th, 2007 · No Comments

There was no greater end to a movie than Cruel Intentions’ triumphant dismantling of the evil Kathryn Mertueil accompanied by the haunting chords of The Verve’s epic “Bitter Sweet Symphony”. 

The song has since become a classic, still chilling to the core even now.

Sadly the band was plagued by turmoil perpetuated by an illegal Rolling Stones sample used in “Bittersweet Symphony”…The Rolling Stones sued and were awarded 100% of all royalties made on the song, including money garnered from the Cruel Intentions license and alter a lucritive Nike deal. This was the beginning of the end for a band with the potential to be #1.

10 years later, all tensions aside, The Verve made a “trimphant return” Friday night with their very first reunion concert at Glasgow Academy.  It’s the beginning of a U.K tour that will lead into the recording of a 5th studio album. 

The talent this band displays is undeniable…we just hope they can hold it together this time.

New Lil’ Wayne Cover Art??

November 6th, 2007 · 3 Comments

What is said to be the album cover for Lil Wayne’s forthcoming Tha Carter III has just surfaced….

We however, are a bit skeptical.  Our sources tell us this record has been pushed for release to 08, and theres a “The Leaks” album coming first since most tracks that were supposed to appear on Tha Carter III ended up on the internet….

Lupe Fiasco featuring Matthew Santos

Lovin’ the song, however I’m pretty much over hip hop artists trying to act like rock stars.  Hype, you’re one of the greatest but damn your shit’s getting tired
