Elbow are getting their own beer. It's an ale called Build A Rocket, Boys!, after their most recent album, and it might possibly be the most interesting thing they've ever done. Maybe the only interesting thing about them. Here's hoping Bud Light isn't more potent. English ale isn't known to be watery and wimpy as fuck. Jane's Addiction's long-...

By Kate Harper (CHARTattack) April 13, 2011 4:56 pm

I don't know what's come over Dave Grohl and company, but Wasting Light is the Foos' best album since 1997's The Colour And The Shape.Maybe it's Pat Smear being back, since this is his first album with the band since Colour. Maybe it was recording it in Dave Grohl's garage. Maybe it was the return of Butch Vig, who hasn't worked with Grohl since...

Here's further evidence that our friends south of the border now have a way cooler leader than us. Sure, we used to mock Dubya all the time and most Canadians weren't really onside with 99.9 per cent of the things his administration did, but those days are over.

Them Crooked Vultures just released a video called "Fresh Pots," which documents Grohl's caffeine addiction for the entire interwebs to see. In it, his band...
