Jay-Z Has a Thing Thing for the Ting Tings
Jay-Z definitely has an ear for British pop tunes—he also signed British trio Sugababes to his label, so we wouldn’t be surprised if he makes a cameo on their upcoming album, Sweet 7. (Maybe he shoulda taken over Keisha’s vocals?) You can pretty much add Jay-Z’s rapping to anything—Fall Ou...

Such Great Hoots? Owl City Is A Rare Boy-Pop Chart-Topper
Back in 1997, when I was a critic for CMJ, I led off my review of a new album by vintage Britpoppers the Sundays with the following sideswipe at another band: “In the five years since their last album, [the Sundays] watched the Cranberries swipe their sound and turn it into three obscenely po...

Boy Least Likely: Jay Sean Sinks Black Eyed Peas’ Titanic Run
• While this column was off last week, Alice in Chains pulled off a feat it never achieved while late lead singer Layne Staley fronted the band: scoring a No. 1 Alternative/Modern Rock hit. For one week, “Check My Brain” evicted Muse’s “Uprising,” which returns to the penthouse this week.

Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom Boom: Peas Join 10-Week Club
My guess? This is the first step in the gradual demotion of the niche-rock format charts, including Modern/Alternative, in favor of this all-encompassing Rock chart. It’s a totally practical move, given the increasing, bordering-on-absurd overlaps between the various radio flavor...

Brokencyde Reveal Themselves As The Heirs To Linkin Park’s Throne Of Teen Angst
I know that I’m far outside of their target demo–as evidenced by the title of their forthcoming album I’m Not A Fan… But The Kids Like It!–but I can’t help but be a little more than disappointed by the new single by the hilariously awfulsome crunk-core outfit Brokencyde. “Booty Call” is mayb...

Linkin Park Apparently Thinks Bret Michaels Was The Singer Of Guns N' Roses
Mope-rockers Linkin Park's show at Alpine Valley on Saturday night was notable because one of the dudes took a break from whining about the world and his place in it to tell the crowd that people shouldn't always take themselves so seriously. The band then went on to don blond wigs (??) and pe...

Linkin Park Sacrifice Their Lives To Resurrect A Dying Sun
I still haven't seen Sunshine (No. 23 on my queue, between Primer and MST3K: Ring Of Terror), but from the trailer alone I know Linkin Park's new video for "Leave Out All The Rest" shamelessly swipes many of its visuals. I'm totally fine with that, as the idea of Linkin Park floating in space an...

There May Be Some Sort Of Copy Protection Crawling Around In The New Linkin Park CD
Now, we know that Warner Music Group is pro-DRM, but really—forcing consumers who have been willing to shell out cash for CDs to jump through hoops just so they can transfer a brand-new record to their computers seems kind of cruel. And it's not just cruel to the consumers, either; it hurts t...

Videodrone: Linkin Park Hasn't Lost Its Ability To Leave Us Numb
Pay close attention to this Saturday Night Live performance by Linkin Park, because around the 50-second mark, you can actually witness the last sad death-moan of rap-rock: As the rest of the band members try to pretend that they're not playing a fourth-tier 3 Doors Down song, the DJ thro...
