It’s always interesting to get someone else’s opinion on a topic. Most of the time, I post these Top Mainstream and Modern Rock Billboard (radio airplay) charts and I just list everything. Rarely, I’ll comment on it mainly because I’m too lazy to do so and I have a bunch of other topics to cover. I came upon this commentary from The Portland Phoenix about this past week’s top modern rock tracks. It’s not the most detailed review of the …
Hold up, I’m about to use one of those cliche openings. Here we go: Bruce Springsteen has been known as “The Boss”, a rock star, political activist, NJ’s favorite son but marriage counselor? That’s a new one! The Fray’s Isaac Slade met “The Boss” and his daughter backstage after a show (The Fray’s) and Isaac asked Springsteen about how to maintain a marriage while being on the road so much.
‘Bruce was nice enough to come over and chat, so …

Jason Flom has finally got his baby back. Flom had started Lava Records under Atlantic/WMG back around the 90s where he helped launch Kid Rock, Simple Plan amongst others. This was after spending a decade putting out a bunch of hair metal bands that your mom still probably worships. After getting canned by Lyor Cohen (Chairman and CEO of Recorded Music in the Americas for WMG) at WMG and being downsized from Virgin, Flom is back with his mentor Doug …
Andrew from iamstockmonkey wrote about how he received an email from V Festival organizers advertizing a contest to win camping tickets for this years festival. In the ad, it also allows for the email recipient to help pick bands/performers that they’d like to headline as well as breakthrough bands to appear at the festival. That’s pretty fuckin cool if the organizers/bookers pick the lineup based on fans/concertgoers picks. Check out the ad below:

Rise Against, who’s one of The Audio Perv’s favorite bands right now, have released a video on Myspace for their new single “Audience of One”. The video was directed by Brett Simon (The Killers – Somebody Told Me, Unwritten Law – Save Me, Queens Of The Stone Age – Sick Sick Sick) in LA last month with the band performing in a miniature world on the White House lawn. I’m sure that you’ll enjoy it because I do.
Flobots played “Rise” last night on Last Call with Carson Daly. I really don’t have anything else to say about it except click on the post to enjoy the clip. Oh wait, sorry about the quality. Now enjoy it!
Anthony Green (lead singer of Circa Survive) was on Last Call with Carson Daly on Monday night and I managed to record it, transfer it to DVD-R and put it on my computer and convert it so I could upload it to you. Unfortunately, the video quality isn’t that great but you just want to see the performance, right? Anyways, Green played “Baby Girl” off of his solo album “Avalon”. You can check out the clip below:

Because we here at The Audio Perv LOVE Neil Patrick Harris and all his work (and we know how much you do as well), we decided to post up another clip of NPH on SNL. To follow up Frost/Nixon, the makers of the film have rushed a sequel called Frost/Other People where Frost (Neil Patrick Harris) interviews David Bowie, Rerun and a few other people. Enjoy the clip below:

Corey Taylor of Slipknot and Stone Sour (Stone Sour is soooo much better than Slipknot) spoke with Billboard recently on Slipknot’s 10th anniversary and tour and his upcoming solo album. Unfortunately, this means that Stone Sour might be over, if not taking a veryyy long break. I swear Corey Taylor’s like Maynard James Keenan.. except that he’s not weird as ****. I once met Maynard after an A Perfect Circle show in Massachusetts and he was such a dick and …
