So I am at the Roskilde Festival
I’m currently in the Media Centre trying despreatly to get some work done and organsie some interviews. In both cases, to no avail.

In return: photos, setlists, reviews and that by me.
To sweeten the deal: Some new songs...

At Groovin’ the Moo Bendigo, Silverchair spat two new tunes out. The kings of Triple-J centric Australian music did something here. I’m not sure what it is, but...

Kelly Clarkson Rips Off Arcade Fire?
twentyfourbit:
Truth be told, we take no pleasure in piling onto music plagiarism accusations, but the fine folks at Pedestrian have called out Kelly Clarkson’s new leaked single, “Naked Eye,” as a blatant rip-off of Arcade Fire’s great “Rebellion (Lies)” and, well, the first verses are awfully similar. Vulture noticed the AF connection too. Coincidence?
Have no fear, Clarkson detractors: the...
