Katy Perry Can Actually Sing

It may have been pouring buckets of rain earlier in the day, but that didn't stop people from every walk of life congregating at Ontario Place for one of the last shows Katy Perry will play before her tour ends and she heads back into the studio. Apparently everyone from shivering under-dressed divas to goth kids, grandmas and tiny tots, relates...

Katy Perry — One Of The Boys

in
By Shannon Whibbs (CHARTattack) July 8, 2008 10:58 am
Katy Perry, pop music's It Girl for summer 2008, looks and sounds like a more bad-ass Kelly Clarkson and a more believable, less calculated Avril Lavigne. This isn't to say she hasn't been perfectly groomed and positioned to make her mark on the pop market, working with a small army of producers and songwriters (some of the same who've worked with...

D-Sisive has announced that his next album Run With The Creeps will be released on Nov. 1. The concept album about a lonely meat packer's quest for love in the cold, cold city will feature contributions from Colin Stetson, Owen Pallett, Patrick Watson, Fucked Up's Pink Eyes and Karkwa... or probably just Muneshine. There's a teaser video you can...

Cancer Bats are working on the follow-up to last year's Bears, Mayors, Scraps & Bones, which they say should feature plenty of Sabbath-esque riffs. And, y'know... screaming. That, too.

As the Russian junior hockey team showed us yesterday, just when you think someone or a particular team's won, everything can change. All of a sudden your opponent can come out of nowhere and take the lead or win, and you never saw it coming.

Katy Perry — Teenage Dream

in
By Aaron Brophy (CHARTattack) August 24, 2010 2:29 pm
Katy Perry is a very sly woman, and Teenage Dream is a very sly album. "California Gurls" status as this year's undisputed summer song was no fluke, as it and the rest of Teenage Dream carpet bomb her core demo with enough anthems to soundtrack the entire spectrum of the CosmoGirl life experience. The lead-off and title track is...

We're going to declare today Rock Appropriation Day. It seems pop starlets have, over the last 24 hours or so, realized that, "Hey, this 'rock' thing is kinda awesome; maybe if I cover this band's tune, I can have a crossover hit."

Tweens are probably rejoicing that Katy Perry's new album, Teenage Dream, will be out Aug. 24. But indie rockers Beach House aren't very pleased. That's not because they dislike Perry (although they probably do now), but they're a little ticked that Teenage Dream's title is pretty similar to their Teen Dream, which came out back in January....

What I liked about this: the set, Katy Perry's outfit (kind of)... and, yeah, that's about it. Everything that makes Perry tolerable in regular recordings has literally gone out the window on this live CD/DVD. It was shot and recorded live in a studio, filled with an adoring crowd of teenage Abercrombie-clad audience and Perry played a...
