Save Criminal Records, Atlanta
Listen, Atlanta: (courtesy of the ajc): Eric Levin has helped make Record Store Day an annual event to support 1,000 independent record stores worldwide.

Nickelback sucks. Even Canada knows.
I really refuse to put up a picture of Nickelback or Chad Kroeger (not to be confused the KROGER, a now seemingly downtrodden grocery store). SO this picture of a nickle and a back will just have to do. Turns out that even Canada, home of aforementioned band, doesn’t like this so-called band. For those [...]
Wilco- The Whole Love
Wilco’s newest album The Whole Love is streaming LIVE for the next 24 hrs on this awesome page they’ve made. It mimics a record player so if you have a slow computer, you’re more than likely going to want to scream. It also doesn’t allow for a downward scroll to load, but the only use [...]
Listen: Bon Iver’s Beth/Rest solo
Ol’ Justin Vernon stopped by NPR’s World Cafe’ the other day to give a solo performance of Beth/Rest. This stripped down version sounds completely different than the version on Bon Iver’s second album, Bon Iver. After listening to the original version when it first came out, my friend said it sounded like it was from [...]
Where is the Atlanta music scene?
I don’t know what shows you’ve been to, but the ones I’ve been to are usually filled with people talking. I. Hate. That. I understand if it’s at a bar and the band is essentially just providing the background noise. It shouldn’t happen at a concert, like Ryan Adams and The Cardinal’s self-proclaimed (it actually [...]

Listen: Ryan Adams | Ashes & Fire
Historically, Ryan Adams has never been the type to wait years between albums. Somehow, though, we haven’t heard anything but archival releases and bizarre quasi-metal side projects from the man for quite some time. He’s all set to return with the new joint Ashes & Fire very soon, and now he’s shared one of the [...]
