On tonight’s episode of The Wedge, Damian somehow becomes a timelord much like Doctor Who and the KLF and travels through time for some reason. Why? Well, you’ll just have to tune in and see. And then explain to us just how he did it. No really, please do. Also on the show, Damian interviews [...]

Arguably the biggest indie band in the world at the moment, New York’s Vampire Weekend released their hotly tipped third album, Modern Vampires of the City, this week.

This week on The Wedge, spring has sprung and it fucking sucks because well… it sucks. But what doesn’t suck in my opinion is the new Vampire Weekend record. The controversial (for a few hater types) new record feels really of the moment and more than just a collection of mp3 drops stuck on a [...]

The MET GALA… nothing more needs to be said but what does need to be talked about is the other manifestations of PUNK in 2013 and the power of the other influences it has, the ones no represented by the Met Gala. The first time I heard of Titus Andronicus I assumed they were a [...]

One of 2013′s XXL Freshmen of the Year, Action Bronson recently met up with The Wedge crew, to sit down and co-host the show with Damian.

About three years ago I was hanging out in St. Louis, a friend of mine named Diaz told me about a rapper with the qualifier of “he kinda looks like you, you’ll love him!” His name was Action Bronson. That was the first time I had heard of the Queens, NY native but it certainly [...]

One of the best, young new bands out of the UK right now is London’s Palma Violets. They’ve done all the magazine covers, signed to Rough Trade and released a debut album that Mojo says “is filled with such a sense of unyielding joie de vivre and spirit that you can’t help but be seduced [...]
