With the onset of crappy dance compilation after crappy dance compilation (Dance Mix 2000, Big Shiny Tunes, MC Mario, the list goes on and on...) comes the first one to include the major aggro-rock super bands of the moment. It's all here: Incubus, Coal Chamber, Korn, Static X, Sevendust and the list gets even longer and better. Each band's...

The Gallagher brothers have pretty bad tempers, but would they ever send someone a bullet through the mail? (Okay, maybe they might do that to each other, but...) Liam Gallagher's bodyguard is being accused of doing just that. A Paris bar covered in Jim Morrison's image may be forced to close because the band doesn't approve of its owner hanging...

Courtney Love has been ordered to pay $35,769.72 U.S. (about $34,900 Canadian) in wages, penalties and interest to two former maids who recently proved she never paid them for cleaning up her house two years ago. Can you even imagine what it must be like to clean up Courtney Love's house? I guess that explains why they made about $16,600 ($16,200...

Rihanna leads the nominees for this year's Billboard Music Awards, while Lady Gaga, Bruno Mars and Justin Bieber are also among those with ridiculous amounts of nominations. You're not alone if that makes you puke in your mouth a little. —Billboard LCD Soundsystem's final show earlier this month at New York City's Madison Square Garden will be...

Looks like 102.1 The Edge and Dean Blundell are in some trouble again. The Canadian Broadcast Standards Council said Wednesday that comments Blundell made suggesting Justin Bieber was "gay" and that his fans were "likely 12 years old" violated part of the council's "equitable portrayal code" because they had "inappropriately sexualized children."...

MTV Removes Words "Music Television" From Logo

By Kate Harper (CHARTattack) February 9, 2010 11:26 am
Sorry, what was that about video killing the radio star? It now seems reality TV has finally killed the music video (on TV, at least). MTV has finally admitted what most people have known since at least early last decade: it is no longer "music television." The network, which launched in 1981 specifically to air music videos,...

And more "music television" goes down the crapper. It was announced today that after 10 years on the tube, MTV's Total Request Live is going on an "extended hiatus." The afternoon show used to countdown the day's top 10 videos, but in recent years has become "a mere conduit for celebrities to plug their current projects...

Twenty years isn’t that long if you think about it, but when it comes to the evolution of music, there’s something important that ought to be captured. MTV has put out a compilation disc that attempts to do just that — freeze-frame two decades worth of music. For the most part, the disc includes some worthy causes, although a...

MTV Return Of The Rock Volume 2

Yet another regurgitation of the best and worst in the world of nu metal. Believe me, I'll be the first to applaud the efforts of ground-breakers and those wanting to ascend the rock-metal god throne, with a few rocking songs that are easily blasted through a car speaker, but when you pile on more than eight bands that don't have any songs...
