The former Pavement frontman's latest release with the Jicks could mark the beginning of a miserable descent towards becoming a jam band. According to our review, Real Emotional Trash is "all jam, all the time," and that Malkmus "sounds like a Phish out of water." Tragic, I know. -- ASD Staff Report

90210 Spinoff Script Details Leaked

Although the project for a Beverly Hills, 90210 spinoff has yet to be greenlit, reports have surfaced that reveal details about the script and casting. Apparently the show's characters have no relation to the previous cast save for the fact that the main character went to the same high school...in 1980. That, and two teen characters share the same last name as Brian Austin Green's character, David Silver. So expect a spinoff that has absolutely nothing to do with 90210 aside from the location. -- ASD Staff Report

What, were you expecting Miami booty bass from the Roots crew? -- ASD Staff Report

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
