It seems that in every bit that you read about the Hold Steady they always bring up the fact that frontman Craig Finn is a former member of the band Lifter Puller. I wonder how long it will be, considering the rapid rise to prominence that his current band has seen to date with no ceiling yet in sight, before the references to Lifter Puller begin to fade away. Whatever.

Rock band Thin Lizzy will perform in Sofia on October 3 in Hall 1 of the National Palace of Culture , NDK. Less than a month ago, Thin Lizzy released a unique live album, UK Tour 75, a tribute to the bands songwriter, lead singer and bassist Phil Lynott...
The bad news: Belle and Sebastian aficionados who've been waiting for a successor to 2006's The Life Pursuit will have to keep waiting, as there is no new studio album ...
One of the most exciting performers in the electronic music underground–his gig at last year’s Pitchfork Music Festival set off a veritable frenzy–laptop composer Gregg Gillis is arguably as significant for his politics as he is for his unbelievably dense, incredibly enjoyable musical pastiches.

(I'm with Declan Burke on this — I think Thin Lizzy's is the best version — but YMMV.)
Seeing The Lonely H after a six months, most of which the band has been on the road, living the life of a traveling touring band – was like witnessing an almost entirely new band. The licks were tighter than ever, the voices more trained, and the stage presence bigger and better than before. The H also [...]
From a blurb for the forthcoming book I Hate New Music , which sets out to "celebrate a time when Foreigner, Frampton, and Foghat fought for total chart dominance" and push for Thin Lizzy to be inducted to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame: "Author Dave Thompson examines the sacred cows of the past 30 years - from U2 to Days of the New, from Radiohead to The White Stripes—and then slaughters them for their...

This classic 1975 concert was recorded live at Derby College. “This one’s dedicated to George Best,” slurs Phil Lynott, “For Those Who Love To Live”.
One of the people I follow on Twitter is Anthony Casey. I don’t know the guy in the real world but he must have tweated something that interested me and I hit the follow button. He’s actually reciprocated and follows me which is cool. So this morning Anthony tweated that he’d posted [...]
