Born Without Bones – This is a Born Without Bones Cover

Born Without Bones played to impress during Friday night's O'Brien's Show.

Holy shit, Born Without Bones. Go to their shows, buy their merch, listen to their music, write their name on your locker, buy three dogs and name them ‘Born’ ‘Without’ and ‘Bones’. Can you get pregnant from this? I think you can.

The Mighty Mighty Moss Tones

I'm bad in plaid and I'm plaid and I'm proud.


Modcloth, the kitschy / vintage / retro clothing and decor online retailer often applies witty names to its inventory from over 700 independent designers. Ranging from “Executive Sweet Jacket” to “On your Vest Behavior” and even “The Squirrel Next Door Stop”, Modcloth now pays homage to the Boston Music scene with the “Mighty Mighty Moss Tones Dress” in a very appropriate plaid.


Speaking of The Bosstones, The Hometown Throwdown 16 tickets are on sale now for December 27, 28 and 29 at the House of Blues - Boston.

Lions Lions Continues to Make Videos of Poppy Cover Songs Performed in Tight Spaces

Boston post-hardcore band, Lions Lions continues to make videos of poppy cover songs performed in tight spaces. While on tour, the band released their take on 'Holy Grail' by Jay-Z / Justin Timberlake. Previously this year, Lions Lions put forth onto the internets a delightful rendition of Bruno Mars' "Locked Out of Heaven". 



If you are curious, this is how they usually sound.

The Young Leaves - 'Alive and Well' Record Release Show

Indie pop covered in sludge. Would have been cool in 1994, still cool in 2013. Just don't call them pop-punk

Rock Out With Your Cocktail Out Vol. XVI

Get fancy - use a glass. (image credit)

Pumpkin domination. A lot of October cocktails floating around the internets these days call for Black Vodka, which I've already decided tastes like black licorice and food coloring. Keep it simple with pumpkin beer while staying classy with fancy glasses. And keep it eerie with the October playlist featuring local Boston bands Beware the Dangers of a Ghost Scorpion and Walter Sickert & The Army of Broken Toys.
