Great New Band: Dirty Thrills

Dirty Thrills formed back in 2012. The UK band is very straight up rock n' roll. The video for "No Resolve" just came out. It seems like these guys could really catch on with the right promotion. Maybe opening for a classic band would help. At any rate, I dig it.

ICYMI: KISS Rocks A Parade

KISS "performed" during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade yesterday. I put performed in quotes since all musical acts just lip synch their little segments during the parade. It took a long time for KISS to roll up to Herald Square, but when they did it was kind of cool. Of course KISS did "Rock N' Roll All Nite" but it's all good - everyone in the crowd was singing along! Even better was the pyro that shot off the back of the float.

Enuff Z'nuff Releases New Video

Happy Thanksgiving!

So Enuff Z'nuff (which is really just Chip Z'nuff these days I think) just put out a video for "The Stroke." The song is a cover of the Billy Squier hit and is from the new EZN album Covered in Gold. I like the cover but I don't care for the video. The girls in the background were too distracting to me.

Merry Christmas From American Dog

Ohio based band American Dog has a special holiday message for everyone on this Thanksgiving eve... "Merry Christmas Asshole." Hilarious!

AC/DC Release 'Rock or Bust' Video

Gritty and raw rock n' roll, AC/DC style! The band has released an official video for the title song from the upcoming album Rock or Bust. Check it out.

This Will Make You Smile

Picture it: Warrant, live in Japan back in 1991. A big, screaming crowd, great moves on stage and Jani Lane in all his glory. I had a great time watching this full concert from Nakano Sun Plaza Hall in Tokyo and I bet you'll love it too. Videos like the one below remind me why I'm a Glam fan.

Jesse Kinch Performs Original Songs

Jesse Kinch, winner of Rising Star, is in the middle of working on his debut album (his win earned him a deal with Capitol Records). Recently he tweeted performance videos of some of his original songs. Jesse sang the tunes during his homecoming show at Long Island University. I'm pulling for this kid to make it in the music industry. The rock world needs him.
