Halifax's Rebekah Higgs will release her as-yet-untitled sophomore album sometime this summer, and she's heading out on tour next week to play songs from it. It might not be Halloween, but that's no...

George Washington and Abraham Lincoln on Rick Ross'... um... pecks? MOG Music NetworkMethod Man was also attacked at last weekend's Gathering Of The Juggalos. He was hit with...

Van Halen's infamous 1982 backstage rider banning brown M&Ms from their dressing room has finally surfaced online. We're not entirely sure why the band specifically requested "herring in sour cream" be on the menu, nor why they needed a tube of KY Jelly, either, but hey. —The Smoking GunDeadmau5 will be MTV's house...

Julian Casablancas' Phrazes Are Kind Of Off The Mark

I was going to attempt to say this gently, but I really don't think there's any other way to go about it, so here goes: Funeral Party's Chad Elliott's needs to learn to sing. The Los Angeles-based rockers (who sound suspiciously like The Strokes with a lot more tremoloed guitar) opened for Julian Casablancas at Toronto's Kool Haus on Friday...

Julian Casablancas — "Out Of The Blue" (Live On David Letterman)

Strokes singer Julian Casablancas appeared on the Late Show With David Letterman to perform "Out Of The Blue," the opening track from his Phrazes For The Young debut solo album, on Wednesday (Jan. 6) night.
