Fifty years of this whole "without The Beatles, music would have long ago ceased to exist" mentality is getting stale. CBS's trite attempt to foster Beatles-Mania 2.0 proved once again that the folks behind the Grammys don't even bother to listen outside the box.[/box] [box type="shadow"]

Radiohead have released an enthralling, otherworldly new app, PolyFauna. In it, "your screenis the window into an evolving world" based on the sound and imagery of "Bloom" from 2011's King of Limbs.[/box][/one_half_last]

Drake threw a hissy fit when Rolling Stone bumped his cover story to run a TRIBUTE to the RECENTLY DECEASED Phillip Seymour Hoffman. He has since apologized, realizing that sadness over the tragic death of a talented actor is maybe just a little bit more justified than being butt hurt over the music mag's slight.[/box] [box type="shadow"]

We're beginning to think "shows at Rough Trade" were an elaborate hoax designed by the owners of Baby's All Right. Cheers to Oh My Rockness for keeping everything straight for us.[/box][/one_half_last]
