What would Christmas be without some Bah Humbug thrown in for good measure?
Get into the Holiday spirit with an original Christmas song from Seattle’s Dirty Sidewalks. “It’s Xmas (and Everyone is Miserable)” is here, downloadable and available for streaming via this SoundCloud page:
Combining the mirth of Christmas jingle bells, twangy guitar licks, a thumpin’ drum machine, punchy production and dead cool vocals, Dirty Sidewalks have crafted a as fine a shoegaze holiday ‘classic’ as you have ever heard! Fans of ‘80’s college rock, ‘90’s Britpop and ‘60’s harmonies with a (not so) cheery Christmas message take note, the Dirty Sidewalks are a force to be reckoned with.
Brothers Erik Foster (lead vocals, guitar) and Evan Foster (lead guitar, vocals & also of The Boss Martians) are sharing this Christmas gift with you in anticipation of their first vinyl 7” single (coming in January 2016) followed shortly thereafter with their debut full-length (Spring) on their own No Count Records. So consider this holiday tune an introduction to the band that unabashedly takes sonic cues from both The Jesus and Mary Chain, Oasis…and Santa.

Madonna Is "Burning Up!"
Madonna Shreds It! |
Madonna is currently blazing across the world on her Rebel Heart Tour, earning rave reviews! You go your Madgesty!
As we know Madonna is always working hard to push her own boundaries and one of those things has been to learn how to master various musical instruments that she had not a clue how to play at some point in her life.
Well the big "M" hits the electric guitar and shreds it to her classic "Burning Up!" This song happens to be my introduction to Madonna as a young man growing up in the Seattle area, when I am sure the electric guitar was not something in her repertoire at that point in time.
I can't believe it's been forty years since I first became a disciple in the church of Madonna !!!
Can I get an Amen?!
