I wish I could simply write, “I don’t have words to describe what I saw and experienced last night at the U.S. Royalty show,” however, that would be a very boring way to sum up everything I saw from this great new band, so I am going to try to do them justice since I
Check out the video for “Girls” from Deep Sea Arcade. BPM loves the song and video and wrote that it’s an “amazing summer jam.” They’ve been seeing a ton of great responses for this song, John Richards at KEXP has been saying they’re his new favorite band, and Surviving the Golden Age wrote that the song “reminds me of something

If you have not heard “Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye, you must live under a rock. It’s the only explanation, really, considering that track transcends genres, making it accessible to alternative rock, pop, and even hip-hop radio stations, which have all given it monstrous airtime. The Australian-based indie outfit has been one
Somewhere in North Hollywood right now, there is a failed actor in his 50s wearing loose-fitting pants, shoes only available at Samuel French, and a faded salmon tank top. He’s standing in front of a group of hapless “actors” who have foolishly signed up for his class, because “it was a good deal,” and “Well,

Having gone the past two years, I’m no stranger to that pre-Coachella feeling: in a few weekends I’ll be yearning for the desert sun, the overpriced food, the kick-ass people, and, most importantly, the kick-ass music.
