by Byron Flitsch | February 7, 2013 at 11:00 pm

The Buzz On: Nervous Nellie
by David Greenwald | February 7, 2013 at 10:30 pm

Nervous Nellie's synth-rock is stage fright-free. For a band about to make its U.S. debut, Nervous Nellie doesn't sound anxious at all. The Swedish outfit borrows a hot cup of swaggering classic rock influence to pour over its flashy synth-driven hooks, a confident sound that leaves tracks such as "Gloves" sounding like Phoenix and M83 [...]

OH HOLD UP BECAUSE IT TOTALLY DOES." [...]

by Jenna Hally Rubenstein | February 7, 2013 at 8:30 pm

My Name Is Kay whistles while she werques in her "Whatever" video. Ever wonder what would happen if you took Ke$ha, Kreayshawn, Neon Hitch, and Amy Heidemann from Karmin (when she's rapping) and blended them all into one delicious (and antioxidant filled!) smoothie?

by Jenna Hally Rubenstein | February 7, 2013 at 7:30 pm

Fangirl-ing over Watsky big time, right now. We're totally having a moment with Watsky right now. Like, such a moment that if he were to stand right in front of us, we'd probably get all sweaty, awkward, and weird, avoid eye contact, then revert back to sweaty. If you've seen the rapper and slam poet (yes, [...]

by Jenna Hally Rubenstein | February 7, 2013 at 4:54 pm

Adam Levine launches his eponymous fragrance line. Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine has famously tweeted about never wanting to get into the fragrance game. Except now Adam's about to launch his eponymous fragrance line, so it's off into the game he goes! That said, we imagine it's mad hard to turn down what we presume is [...]
