Here’s a cool cover of Pearl Jam’s ‘Why Go’ by rapper POS. It’s been stuck in my head for the past few days, so I know it’s good. Pearl Jam has been in the news a lot lately, what with the rerelease of Ten and all.

There’s now officially a product available from the extreme amount of material NIN recently released. The best part about this material? It’s high quality and totally free. Free, as in $0, not even a donation asked for free.
There are two albums under the combined name, Another Version of the Truth, Las Vegas and The Gift. [...]

Nine Inch Nails releases 400GB of HD video content via torrent for anyone to download, gratis.

Today is a good day, and it’s only getting started! First, the greatest news that’s happened in a while- the RIAA has publicly stated that they are ending individual lawsuits against file sharers!

It looks like one of the ways NIN is trying make back their costs on this (and most likely make a small mint [...]

 
Bullet For My Valentine – Scream Aim Fire
This is just a great, angry album, and it’s one I wasn’t expecting to be that good. The title track is a great intro to the album, and it rocks hard until the end.
 
Jack Johnson – Sleep through the Static
Jack Johnson finally gets his hands a little dirty on [...]

 
Well, before we get started here, why would we want to boycott the RIAA? Well, as I’ve pointed out before, they are using their intellectual property rights in a way that’s pretty close to extortion. They don’t pay fair wages to their artists (if they pay at all). They use illegal and quasi-legal tactics against universities, [...]
