Check out Bloc Party's new music video

British indie rock band Bloc Party, which recently reunited and consequently released their fourth comeback studio album simply entitled Four in August of 2012, has a new music video.

It is made for new second single of the record called "Kettling". It will officially be released next month (November 12).

It is one of the heavier tracks on the record and it is really good as the whole album actually. Although many people say they came back to their original sound, which isn't necessarily a good thing, I really dig guitar-driven sound more than their more electronic efforts (e.g. third album Intimacy).

Anyway, there are always two sides. One represents the people that say the band stopped their evolution and used nothing new on this record. Other side of the coin represents the people, which appreciate their "back-to-the-roots" sound. I belong to the second group. What do you think of the record?

Anyway, check out the new music video below. It was directed by James Lees who previously worked with Two Door Cinema Club, Blood Red Shoes or Shakira.

Picture of the day: October 8, 2012

Last month, I informed you that Deftones will release their new album entitled Koi No Yokan on November 13. First track revealed from this record is song called "Leathers" and you can check it out below:

Now they revealed second song from the album. It is six-minute long song called "Tempest" and it sounds really awesome - even better than "Leathers". To listen to the song, visi Deftones website.

Yesterday, the band also finally revealed cover of the album. It looks like this:

Watch Muse perform at SNL

Muse finally officially released their very anticipated new album entitled The 2nd Law last week (on October 2 in US and on September 28 in most of the world). However, it hasn't got too good reviews. Many people actually think that they copied too much of their sound on this record. In fact, I even think it is true, but I don't think it is that bad. I feel that they added their typical elements to this album, which made all the tracks great. I really enjoy listening to it even though it is not as original as it could be.

The band is obviously promoting their latest effort. Later this month, they will start their tour throughout the Europe. The european part of the tour will kick off on October 16 in Montpellier, France and will end on December 6 in Stockholm, Sweden. Today, they also announced North American tour dates, which will start on January 26 in San Diego, CA. It will be over on April 26 in Quebec, Canada. To see all their tour dates, visit their website. But if you plan to attend any of these shows, be quick because tickets actually sale out pretty quick.

Past weekend, they also appeared on Saturday Night Live show, which was hosted by Daniel Craig. They performed two tracks from The 2nd Law - "Madness" and "Panic Station". Check out both performances below.

Song of the day: Dan Andriano - "Of Peace, Quiet and Monsters"

Bassist and also an occasional singer of a band called Alkaline Trio (they are actually working on new album), Dan Andriano, has also a side project. He released one LP under his one-man project called Dan Andriano in the Emergency Room entitled Hurricane Season in August of 2011.

The album features 10 tracks all written by Dan himself. The album also got pretty good reception (it got rating of 4.5/5 by PunkNews and 4/5 by Alternative Press).

Andriano also recently performed for Fender in their YouTube series called Fender Vision. You can watch him playing a track from his solo album called "Of Peace, Quiet and Monsters":

Watch Tenacious D perform at Jimmy Kimmel + the interview

Not only Garbage appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live show this past week, but also funny duo Tenacious D stopped by. They not only performed during the show, but also chatted a little with Jimmy Kimmel.

The Pick of Destiny-band released their third studio record this year in May. They were considered done after movie and album The Pick of Destiny (2006), which got mostly bad reviews. However, Rize of the Fenix came out and it changed everything...sort of. It was a disappointment for a lot of people, but not me. I got what I expected and nothing more or less. I mean, there are tracks that are really really good and/or funny and enjoyable.

Anyway, check performances of "To Be The Best" and "The Ballad of Hollywood Jack and the Rage Kage" + little interview:

Song of the day: Donots feat. Frank Turner - "So Long"

German rock band Donots released their ninth studio album entitled Walk The Dogs on April 27, 2012.  It contains a track called "So Long", which also features british folk-punker Frank Turner on vocals. The track is amazing. It's got really nice and powerful chorus and catchy main guitar riff.

Today, the band posted music video for this song. It also features Frank Turner. The video is alright, but it is kind of funny as well because it actually looks like Frank and Donots singer were in love...

Anyway, Frank Turner will play a special show with Donots on December 15 in Muenster, Germany. To see all Donots tour dates, visit their website.

Watch Garbage perform at Jimmy Kimmel

Alternative rockers Garbage has released their fifth studio album entitled Not Your Kind of People in May of this year. It is their first new album in long 7 years. It is quite good record, which also got positive reviews from fans and critics.

The band is currently on world tour behind their recent release. To check all their tour dates, visit their website.

Earlier this week, they also appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live show. You can now check performances from this show of two new songs that are included on new album - "Control" and my favorite "Blood For Poppies".

Listen to two new tracks from KISS

I'm gonna be hones here - I had no idea that KISS is still making new music. But, they obviously are. In 2009, they released their first new album in long 11 years. It is called Sonic Boom and from what I read, it got surprisingly positive reviews.

Now they are about to release another new album. Record called Monster will be their 20th studio album and will actually come out pretty soon - on October 9. It will contain 12 new tracks in regular edition. The band already revealed two of them - "Long Way Down" and "All For The Love of Rock&Roll". And I gotta say that they are not bad.

It is almost unbelievable that their music still sounds good. When we consider that KISS' biggest fame is gone, those two tracks are really decent.

Monster tracklisting:

01. Hell Or Hallelujah
02. Wall Of Sound
03. Freak
04. Back To The Stone Age
05. Shout Mercy
06. Long Way Down
07. Eat Your Heart Out
08. The Devil Is Me
09. Outta This World
10. All For The Love Of Rock & Roll
11. Take Me Down Below
12. Last Chance

Song of the day: Pipes and Pints - "Runaway"

Pipes and Pints is a Czech band with american singer. Their music is a mixture of punk, folk punk, celtic punk... They have been on the scene since 2006 and they have released one self-titled and self-released EP in 2008. And in 2009, they finally released LP called Until We Die via People Like You Records.

After touring all over the world behind this LP, which made them famous, they took a break. They even were looking for a new singer for some time. However, Syco Mike decided to come back to his band.

They are currently working on a new album. No title or release date has been released though. "Runaway" is a first song revealed from this record. Check it out below. It is awesome track.
