Few sounds in alternative rock are as heart-racingly giddy as the opening “Ow” of Veruca Salt’s “Seether”. In 1994, the band found themselves the perfect band for the moment, crunchy Grunge topped with a sprinkling of 60s pop harmonies, fronted by two photogenic alt-guitar heroes. But having seemingly appeared out […]

In 1986, Sonic Youth unleashed EVOL, an album that signaled a shift in their sound from their noisy no-wave beginnings to something more melodic that bridged their early years with the genius of Thurston Moore, Kim Gordon, and Lee Ranaldo to come (Sister and Daydream Nation). EVOL was a big […]
A major new rock documentary is about to drop on Netflix, but the Red Hot Chili Peppers are telling their fanbase not to believe the marketing. In a shocking public statement, the band has effectively disowned the project, claiming that what is being sold to the public is NOT what […]
