I feel kind of bad because I’ve been slacking on new FYI’s, but I’ll get back into the swing of things once the holidays are over.
Anyways, it seems appropriate to close out the year with some FYI’s on the 90’s bands that had a pretty decent 2007.
FYI: Foo Fighters
“Long Road To Ruin”
FYI: Foo Fighters, Part […]
2007 was a pretty decent year for 90’s alternative bands, but with the good comes the bad. So, here are the five biggest disappointments of 2007.
5. Chris Cornell - Carry On. I love pretty much anything that Chris Cornell does, minus the last two Audioslave albums, so I was thrilled when I heard that he […]
Hopefully you got some cash or gift cards over the holidays that are burning a hole in your pocket. So, here are the top seven albums from this year that you need to pick up from 90’s alternative bands, if you haven’t done so yet.
7. Velvet Revolver - Libertad: Ok, VR isn’t exactly a band […]
Here’s one last Christmas song for everyone to enjoy.
This version of “Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas” was recorded live last year by former STP and current Velvet Revolver frontman Scott Weiland on the Tonight Show.
You can pretty much just say “Wow” after listening to it. It’s good stuff.
Happy Holidays everyone.

I read this crazy story on the site for Philly radio station WMMR a few days ago.
Beck is implicated in a bizarre double suicide case that has made the pages of Vanity Fair and other outlets. New York artists and lovers Theresa Duncan and Jeremy Blake both committed suicide last July, with Blake taking his […]
Ok, I’m back on an STP kick, so let’s revisit the FYI I did on them from last August.
FYI: Stone Temple Pilots
Until next time enjoy “Kitchenware & Candybars”, which is one of my favorite STP songs, from VH1’s Storytellers.

Since I love Peanuts and STP, it’s only fitting that I would dig this Christmas tune; which happens to be one of my all time favorites.
STP’s version was recorded live back on December 19, 1994 for KROQ’s Almost Acoustic X-Mas show in L.A.
Scott proves how great of a singer he is and Dean DeLeo accompanies this with some smooth guitar […]
Beck will be reissuing his fantastic 1996 album Odelay on January 29.
The deluxe version of Odelay will be a double disc effort. It will feature 16 b-sides, including remixes, 2 unreleased tracks (”Inferno” and “Gold Chains”, produced by the Dust Brothers), and a Spanish version of “Jackasss” entitled “Burro”, which features a mariachi band.
Sounds sweet!
I’ll be picking […]
This is a typical Weezer song, despite the title.
It originally appeared on L.A. radio station KROQ’s 1999 Christmas compilation; but it also appeared on imports of the band’s 2001 self titled album, aka The Green Album and I think it was also a single.
Basically, it’s what we’ve come to expect from Rivers Cuomo; him being alone. […]
