Debut |
PR reports: After self-releasing two demos
(the latter of which sold over 1000 copies at shows alone), Buffalo New
York's Speakerfire hooked up with New Jersey based Piermont Records, who
will be releasing their label backed debut, an EP entitled "Audio Alchemy",
on November 21st. Unlike the majority of post-teen/early twenty somethings
that neglect their alt-rock upbringings in favor of short-lived contemporary
trends, Speakerfire proudly embraces it. The result is an engaging and
ultra-tight intermingling of arena-style guitar walls with contemporary
indie-rock and post-hardcore complexity, soaring vocal anthems, and progressive
spacey atmospheric undertones. Corresponding with the album's release,
Speakerfire has tourdates booked well into 2007.[see full story for music

Slashed |
TMZ reports: In a last ditch effort to salvage
his failing rap career, Kevin Federline has slashed the price of admission
to his concert tour to a whopping... $0.00. Nope, it's not a typo.
Federline, "who comes tight with every
rhyme," is giving away tickets to tonight's performance at the House of
Blues in Chicago. Why, you ask? Because he had a miserable 20% turnout
in New York this past weekend.
Fans (if there are any) can log on to Ticketmaster.com.,
but it will cost you -- $9.39 in fees and taxes. [the scary thing is that
people actually did pay to see him crap... oops rap.]-

in 06? |
Vh1 reports: No year has ever been bigger
for super-star babies than 2006�and who doesn't love a big baby? From the
moment they were born they were instant celebrities and on the top of every
paparazzi's hit list because the first photo's of each new "celebribaby"
could bring millions to some lucky photographer, magazine or charity. 2006
also saw its share of actors, politicians and even clergymen acting like
babies or busting down closet doors to show their true selves. VH1 will
again pay homage to the biggest stars, the biggest moments and the biggest
crazes of this year with "VH1 Big in '06 Awards," premiering Sunday, December
3 at 9PM*.[see full story for more]- Click

| Electra
Zombie Glide |
PR reports: Tune in to TCM Friday 11 PM PT/
Sat 2 AM ET to watch Rob Zombie host TCM Underground presentation of Electra
Glide in Blue. Can't wait til then, click the full story link for a bit
of a preview. Here is some basic info on the flick:
Not all lost movies are literally lost...some
languish in studio vaults, victims less of time and tide than corporate
neglect. Over the last thirty years, there has been precious little ink
spilled over Electra Glide in Blue (1973), the only feature film directed
by James William Guercio, and its quiet return to the world on DVD is cause
for reevaluation. Starring a post-In Cold Blood (1967), pre-Baretta Robert
Blake, Electra Glide in Blue is equal parts modern western, biker flick,
policier and existential journey-to-self, complete with the then-requisite
downer ending that, however it may echo Easy Rider's (1969) sting in the
tale, still packs a punch.- Click
