Pearl Jam - Mind Your Manners


Pearl Jam is an American rock band that formed in Seattle, Washington, in 1990. Since its inception, the band's line-up has included Eddie Vedder (vocals), Stone Gossard (guitar), Jeff Ament (bass), and Mike McCready (guitar). The band's fifth and current drummer is Matt Cameron, of Soundgarden, who has been with the band since 1998.




Lightning Bolt is the upcoming tenth studio album by the American rock band Pearl Jam. The album is scheduled to be released internationally on October 14, 2013, before being released in the United States on October 15, 2013. The first single and todays tune, "Mind Your Manners" was released on July 11, 2013.

Lightning Bolt follows up Backspacer from September, 2009. The album was produced by long-time Pearl Jam producer Brendan O'Brien and is scheduled to be released on Monkeywrench Records/Republic Records through Universal Music.

In May 2013, during an interview with Billboard, Pearl Jam guitarist Stone Gossard revealed that the band was closing in on completing their tenth studio album, saying "We really want to finish a record this year. It's now between half and three quarters done, but we got some new material and we're excited about hopefully doing some more work on that later in the year." In July 2013, speaking to Total Guitar, guitarist Mike McCready said that "we finished seven songs two years ago" and "about four months ago we started up again with a brand new batch of songs to go along with those".

"Mind Your Manners" was played live for the first time at their show in London, Ontario on July 16, 2013. Three days later the band debuted two more songs, "Lightning Bolt" and "Future Days", at their show at Wrigley Field.




Todays tune "Mind Your Manners" is the lead single from their tenth studio album Lightning Bolt.

Jake Bugg - Lightning Bolt


Jake Bugg, an 18-year-old from Nottingham, UK, a new star in the sky. A guy that of his looks could be a 60's pop star with a sound that comes straight from the late 50's. Fresh, clear and uncluttered with a classic nasal rock 'n' roll voice. He is using the old forms to create his music where the faster tunes are classic 60's rock ’n’ roll, while the slower ones are more folkish towards country.



If you are into this type of music and spending some time with his album makes you want to see him live. He is doing a short tour in November and a longer one in February.

Todays tune "Lightning Bolt" is picked from his self titled début album!

Turbowolf - Captain Caveman



Today, I was simply inspired twice, first by a blog colleague "Spaderess" who is running a very interesting series on his blog called "One can not deny a good song ..." The serie is based on an original song, how the song over time has changed and other artists perception and approach turned into, can be both good and bad, sometimes completely horrible ... haha​​.

The other inspiration I got was a the news about Turbowolfs upcoming EP where they exploring the weird and wonderful world of music. The EP contains little odd but interesting selection of songs which include Swedish The Hives song "See Through Head" other tracks are "Electric Feel" (MGMT), Captain Caveman (Lightning Bolt) and Somebody To Love (Jefferson Airplane). Released at the start of October to coincide with their UK headline tour, the 4 track EP is available on LIMITED EDITION marbled green coloured 12" vinyl or on a simple card packaged CD.
Preorder it here!



Turbowolf is a rock band founded in Bristol, UK whose members include Chris Georgiadis (Vocals / Synth), Andy Ghosh (Guitar), Joe Baker (Bass) & Blake Davies (Drums). They released their debut album (titled Turbowolf) on 11/11/11 on Hassle Records. The media have so far struggled to categorise the band's music, partly due to their diverse influences. However, their sound contains elements of rock & roll, psychedelia, heavy metal, punk rock and electronica.

So with "Spaderess" series and news about EP became quite identical, so "we hit two mouses with one stone" and play a cover.

So todays tune is just BATSHIT CRAZY. Turbowolf’s cover of Lightning Bolt’s "Captain Caveman" and it’s just as insane as their version of this classic track.
