Will.I.Am Condenses 50 Years Of Grammys Into 90 Unbearable Seconds

The biggest collective groan at tonight's beer-soaked liveblog came during "Professor" will.i.am's medley. Check out this totally nonsense homage to past Record Of The Year winners, from Bobby Darrin to U2. Consider us schooled, Professor Will!

will.i.am Gets Daft Punk'd

As we've learned recently, the Black Eyed Pea guy with questionable period usage has got a full palette of marketable attributes, what with his enviable gift for rhymery and deep understanding of Mendelian genetics, but let's not forget, he's not...  CONTINUE READING WILL.I.AM GETS DAFT PUNK'D»

Band to Watch logo

Band To Watch: Blank Dogs

Blank Dogs are actually singular: It's the insanely prolific one-man Brooklyn-based band of Mr. Blank Dog. We don't know too much about the biography of the guy behind the bedroom new-wave pop/punk and he's usually covering his face with masks...

OldStand: Rolling Stone, September 13, 1984

Take our ink-stained hands and join us at the OldStand, where Jon McMillan goes to remind everyone what an honest-to-goodness music magazine is supposed to look like. Lots of Huey Lewis (and the News) news lately, so let's go back...

Not all of Stereogum's favorite sounds conform to what folks expect us to cover. In this space, resident Bananafish fetishist Brandon Stosuy focuses on bands, albums, singles, and villages in Sweden that may otherwise pass by unnoticed. This installment's virtual...
