Much missed Mr. Rocca's got himself a Broadway musical these days, so it makes perfect sense for him to talk show tunes with the hip kids at Other Music. Thankfully, the hipsters live up to their end of the premise, give or take an unexpected instance or two of Nazi love.

As we pass saturation point for press coverage of Montreal, Portland, Brooklyn and et cetera, it seems Lawrence, Kansas is poised for its coming turn in the music media trend piece carousel. At least from what we're hearing; this marks...

The Bergen trio Ungdomskulen play proggy post punk, mixing chops and hooks with a sense of humor. But they don't sound like Primus. When I was in Norway a couple years ago, "Ungdomskulen" seemed to be on everybody's lips (or...

It's been some time since we learned Modern Guilt, Beck Hansen's eighth album, would be some sort of psych rock minimalist '60s trip with Danger Mouse. Since then, we've gotten a look at the old-school jazz/Blue Note-style cover art and...

Every week, we dig in the archives for videos that we find noteworthy, memorable, or just unbelievably stupid. And then, Jon McMillan breaks 'em down for you. This week: Papa Roach lands an uppercut on the glass jaw of big oil.

Take our ink-stained hands and join us at the OldStand, where Jon McMillan goes to remind everyone what an honest-to-goodness music magazine is supposed to look like. For the cover story, Bob Guccione Jr. himself gets in the ring with...

Not all of Stereogum's favorite sounds conform to what folks expect us to cover. In this space, resident Bananafish fetishist Brandon Stosuy usually focuses on bands, albums, singles, and villages in Sweden that may otherwise pass by unnoticed. This time...

After hearing "Gillian Was A Horse" from Damien Jurado's forthcoming Caught In The Trees, we contacted the Seattle singer-songwriter and asked if he'd want to premiere a track at Stereogum. Lucky for us (and you), it turned out he had...

Musicals SUCK!
Maybe with the lone exception of "Team America: World Police."
"Everyone Has AIDS" may well be the modern day "Do-Re-Mi."
Score = 0
I love the HOLY FUCK album over their shoulders...
Score = 0
i really hope this doesn't mean he'll be too busy to comment on 80's toys and one-hit-wonders on VH1. that would be awful.
Score = 0
Yeah, if I lived in New York I'd totally go to Other Music and buy that Holy Fuck album, good stuff right there.
Score = 0
this sucks, mo rocca lost everything after he left the daily show.
Score = 0
was that even an Oxes song? it didn't seem like an oxes song.... i like that kid.
Score = 0
It should have been funny, all the punch lines were just cuts after they said "uhhm"
Score = 0
Mo Rocca is still pretty funny when he's on NPR's "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me." I will agree with Dave. While parts were funny, it seemed like it was missing out on a lot of ripe material.
Score = 0
ya know... i like musicals and anything that exposes hipstahs as the unworldly turds they really are... mo rocca forever, but his musical CATS??
Score = 0
To the musical haters, hate to break it to you, but if you like Queen, you like show tunes.
Score = 0
I hate musicals!!! They're so lame! Hey have you guys heard the new Polyphonic Spree? They're the best.
Score = 0
holy shit, i haven't heard of most of the bands in that clip. somebody help me! *downloads furiously*
Score = 0
"Skimbleshanks" (sp?) is worthy of becoming an indie-centric adjective, or the name of a new strain of noise rock. And I could've sworn that that guy at 1:10 (aprox.) was Jason McGerr.
Score = 0
Skimbleshanks is Pete Doherty's new side project. It's nice to know that no matter how stuck up you are you can still be an uncultured mouth-breather.
