A Vulture Wake Share New Single "Red" from Upcoming Kingdom EP (Thousand Islands Records)

A Vulture Wake (SOURCE: Earshot Media / Thousand Islands Records)

Midwest Rockers A Vulture Wake hit harder, darker, and more soulful on their upcoming EP, Kingdom. It will be their sophomore effort and first of two releases slated for 2022 produced, engineered, and mixed by Mike Kennerty (The All-American Rejects, These Enzymes, Screeching Weasel.) It's been lauded as sounding "exactly how I thought it would sound" by NOFX frontman and Fat Wreck Chords founder Michael "Fat Mike" Burkett. Kingdom is lyrically dystopian while building a feeling of hope and victory—all under A Vulture Wake's mantra of "do no harm; take no sh*t." A press release explains, "their new single, "Red," is a rallying cry for the people and a punch in the gut to the "cult of c*cks" spreading the disease of dread and deceit across nations of souls reaching for hope." A Vulture Wake's "Red" shrouds a wicked battle for righteousness with a danceable cloak of hooks and Pop-laden pith.

"Choke," the second single from the Kingdom EP, will drop upon the terribly unsuspecting masses on May 10th, as well. Throw Prog, Pop, and Hard Rock into a blender, filter it through a fever dream, and you're left with this gem. "Choke" is the serious music fan's best friend with its jagged swagger and abstract vision of mental deterioration. Kingdom EP was produced by Mike Kennerty with all music engineered, edited, and mixed by Kennerty in Fall of 2021 at his Quarantine bunker/studio in Edmond, Oklahoma. It was later mastered in January 2022 by Jason Livermore at The Blasting Room in Fort Collins, Colorado. A Vulture Wake is vocalist/guitarist Chad Price (ALL, Drag The River, Ex-Armchair Martian,) guitarist Brandon Landelius (The Mag Seven, Ex-Authority Zero,) drummer John Hernandez (They Stay Dead, Wretch Like Me,) and bassist Dave Klein (The Bi-Products, They Stay Dead, Ex-Black Flag.) A Vulture Wake's "Red" is now available on streaming services. Their next single, "Choke," drops 5/10 and Kingdom EP comes out 6/10 both on Thousand Islands Records.

[W]reckless, Topless American Youth: Lana del Rey - "Born 2 Die" (Britney Spears Birthday 30)

Lana del Rey [Lizzy Grant] effectively became 2011's "It Girl" with the release of her phenomenal debut single, "Video Games" (Stranger) . Like many struggling singer-songwriters, Grant has been signed, dropped, and significantly changed her public image since bursting onto the scene (2009). With that said, it can be assumed that Lana del Rey has collected just as many "haters" as she has avid supporters. To be perfectly honest, the only other artist I can think of that made this much commotion... garnered so much wide-spread buzz/hate and critical acclaim -- right out of the gates -- with just one track is Britney Spears . And maybe in this post- Mike musical era, that's the true synthesis of Pop Culture: Britney Lynn Spears . After months of repeated teasing and speculation, Lana del Rey 's major label debut, Born 2 Die will [finally] be released this coming Jan. 30-31, 2012. Pitchfork reports that it will feature "Off to The Ra

"Let Me Shine for You:" Lindsay Lohan for Playboy (Winter 2011-12 Leak)

Lindsay Lohan essentially embodies exactly "What NOT to Do In Hollywood :" Fame, fortune, success... sex, drugs & Rock "N" Roll . Within a fairly short period of time, Lohan somehow managed to obtain a plentiful helping of POWER @ a very young age. This gradual rise-downfall was captured on film; Between 1998-2010, she portrayed a wide array of roles across the silver screen in movies including: Mean Girls, Bobby , Herbie Fully Loaded , Georgia Rule, Machete , and Freaky Friday . Between rapid-paced film shoots, Lindsay Lohan also found time to record 2 Pop Rock albums for Casablanca , Speak (2004) and A Litter More Personal-Raw (2005). Needless to say, Lindsay Lohan has gotten roped up in a lot of troubles and woes with the law over the last 3-5 years... a vicious cycle of drugs, arrest, court, rehab, "daddy issues," jail time [Repeat]. That's the pure basics of it - But Google that shit for additional info, if necessary. Towards the end of
