On The Wedge tonight Damian chats with Vampire Weekend

May 15th, 2013

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 [...]

But that’s not the case for the new Gold & Youth video for “Jewel.” The video follows a beautiful dancer doing her thing in picturesque settings around Toronto.

Watch Titus Andronicus co-host The Wedge with Damian

May 10th, 2013

If you aren’t familiar with New Jersey’s Titus Andronicus, which they think you aren’t, they are, according to themselves, “America’s #1 punk band.” That title might be them being all tongue-in-cheek, but those guys are always up for speaking their minds, be it serious or not.

ICYMI, Vancouver’s White Lung are one of the more exciting bands in Canada to have made a splash over the past few years.

Smith Westerns “Varsity” (Video)

May 9th, 2013

Ohh young love! Is there anything more precious than that? Well…maybe this. Anyway, the new Smith Westerns’ video for “Varsity” follows around a young couple in love, doing what all young couples do: make out in elevators, snuggle on rooftops, and shotgun joints.

May 8th, 2013

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 [...]
