  2. Coachella 2013: For Major Lazer and New Order, nostalgia is key

    Major Lazer, like many dance-hall and EDM artists, traffics in nostalgia via sentimental ’80s and ’90s samples. New Order, a band that helped forge the sound of dance music decades ago, traffics in the nostalgia of its own songs. At Coachella on Saturday night, the former was more effective than the latter.

  5. Grunge-influenced Wavves and Mudhoney diverge

    When Nathan Williams promises, "Still I'll be your dog," on the new album by his L.A. fuzz-punk band Wavves, he's nodding of course to "I Wanna Be Your Dog" by perhaps the greatest fuzz-punk band of them all, the Stooges. But Williams seems also to be invoking the memory of Mudhoney, the long-running Seattle outfit known to cover "I Wanna Be Your Dog"; its sludgy-but-sweet guitars are all over "Afraid of Heights," Wavves' fourth studio disc and their first to get a big major-label push. That's not the only grunge-era echo here, either: In "That's on Me" Williams sings about someone "soaked in bleach," directly quoting Kurt Cobain in Nirvana's "Come As You Are."

  6. SXSW 2013: Dave Grohl's Sound City Players go big (before going home)

    AUSTIN, Texas -- By many accounts the South by Southwest music festival is about discovering new talent: the fresh-faced indie-pop outfit, for instance, or the precocious laptop wizard just stepping beyond the walls of his bedroom.

  8. SXSW 2013: The music stories to watch

    On the final night of the South by Southwest music festival in Austin, Texas, last year, a young folk-rock trio from Denver took the makeshift stage at a church a few blocks away from the main action down on 6th Street. The church was about half full, providing enough room for the band members to run the aisles, stand on benches and play music from a debut album they had yet to release.

  9. Movie review: 'Sound City' is homage to recording studio equipment

    High-spirited, emotional and funny, "Sound City" is, of all things, a mash note to a machine. Not just any machine, however, but one that helped change the face of rock 'n' roll.
