Fever Ray's new video for "Keep the Streets Empty for Me" isn't as readily horrifying as her other videos have been, but it's still very much a Fever Ray video. Much like it's track, the clip is austere, mysterious, and vaguely unsettling as it follows two girls ...

Jennifer Lopez has been hitless for a while now, and that's obviously something she's looking to remedy on her upcoming album, Love?. "Louboutins" is a bouncy number that uses the famous heels as a metaphor for female empowerment (oh JLo, you queen of irony), with the assistance of The-Dream ...

Given that half of the band cut their teeth in '90s rock bands Hot Snakes, Drive Like Jehu and Edsel, of course Obits would straight crush when they get in front of a late night audience, like they did last night on Fallon. They performed "Fake Kinkade" and it feels like ...

Wyclef is at his best when he's sermonizing like a preacher, and he's in fine form on the anti-violence "Walk Away," a song that compares the bullets that killed MLK Jr., Gandhi and JFK to the bullets that killed Big and Pac. The video is appropriately gritty, as Clef ...

Micachu and the Shapes are the latest hot indie band to end up soundtracking a Crayola commercial, as their "Golden Phone" has been turned into music kids can melt crayons to. It seems crazy to me, since I am 64, that normal crayons stopped being enough for kids, and ...
