Donwill – DPPLGNGR, EP.

Donwill celebrated his birthday by releasing a free EP. Explains Don, i guess i should actually say something about DPPLGNGR huh? long story short it was recorded mid to late last year after i found out about this guy named suff daddy and was put in touch with his label..

Metal Lungies goes to Bonnaroo X 2011, Preview.

Another June, another Bonnaroo Metal Lungies is going to. Starting today we will be roaming the farm in Murfreesboro basking in the glory of the 10th anniversary of the completely sold out festival. Be sure to catch me on twitter, where we will be ranting, recapping, and instagraming… and other verbs. If you aren’t fortunate..

Pretty Lights vs Radiohead vs Nirvana vs NIN.

Pretty Lights has done it again. This track is a seamless integration of three bands that we wouldn’t normally lump together. Our favorite element is the use of Radiohead’s Everything in its Right Place but then you have to give some credit to Nirvana’s vocals from All Apologies and just as we’re making..

Mathieu Santos- I Can Hear the Trains Coming.

Mathieu Santos is best known as being the energetic bassist of Ra Ra Riot but who knew that his vocals could rival those of Wes Miles? I Can hear the Trains Coming is Mathieu’s solo debut and it bodes well for his future as a solo artist. It catches you right..

Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. – It’s a Corporate World, Album.

Detroit bred Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr. slowly crept into the music scene last June with a four song EP, Horse Power, that proved to be a hidden gem. Now, exactly a year later, their first full length album has arrived. Although It’s a Corporate World includes 8 brand new tracks, the songs..

Co$$ – Sleepwalking, Mixtape.

In anticipation of the release of his debut album, Co$$ released Sleepwalking, a mixtape of completely original material. So he basically dropped an extra album’s worth of material. What a guy. Watch the video for his single “Spaceman” below and check back for our interview with Co$$. Before I Awoke..

Wale – The Cloud (ft. Tiara Thomas)

Let’s see if Wale ever makes music like this again. If he tried to make this song today, it would need a J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League beat and at least one verse from Meek Mill. Sphere: Related Content

Vast Aire – Thor’s Hammer (ft. Raekwon, Vordul Mega).

Raekwon has adapted to the present hip-hop market by releasing a lot more music and doing more features. Some of these guest spots make sense, some don’t. “Thor’s Hammer” is one of the former. It’s aggressive, left-leaning, underground hip-hop. Rae is in an interesting place where his legacy allows him..

Astronote – Weapon of the Future, Album.

French producer Astronote sounds like he could be from Detroit. His beats have that hard-to-define knock and he works with the best of the Motor City’s lesser knowns like Finale and Magestik Legend, both of whom spit acid on his new album Weapon of the Future. Listen to the choice..
