Brooklyn psychedelic-funk combo, Chin Chin, leaked a new single called “GG and the Boys” yesterday, offering the first glimpse of an upcoming album to be released on Definitive Jux records early next year. OkayPlayer described the track as “The Love Boat meets “Computer Love,” with a flavoring of 70s inspired soul and funk.”
With a description like that, it’s no wonder this group has opened for an eclectic group of artists including Lilly Allen, Sufjan Stevens, DJ Spinna, and Antibalas Afrobeat.
See what all the buzz is about TONIGHT at Definitive Jux and Waxpoetic’s CMJ showcase at NYC’s Max Fish with Endless Boogie.

P!nk achieved exactly what she wanted to on Funhouse. “It feels good to get people not just emoting and releasing all that energy, but getting angry and motivated too. It’s group therapy.” Pre-order Funhouse now at iTunes and get a bonus track!

14 years later… BAM, a new Guns ‘n’ Roses single. The song is the title track from the long awaited Chinese Democracy and it has actually been officially released by Axl’s camp.
One of the most highly anticipated albums in rock history, the long-awaited Chinese Democracy (Black Frog/Geffen Records) will be available globally on November 23 on CD and vinyl (accompanied by a free digital download of the tracks), and as a separate digital album.
Produced by Axl Rose and Caram Costanzo, Chinese Democracy includes 14 tracks. The title track and first single from the album, “Chinese Democracy”, was released to radio at 5:00AM eastern time today. Two of the recordings have been recently released–“Shackler’s Revenge” debuted September 14 in the “Rock Band 2” videogame and “If The World” debuted October 11 in the film Body Of Lies.
“The release of Chinese Democracy marks a historic moment in rock ‘n’ roll,” said Irving Azoff and Andy Gould, Guns N’ Roses’ co-managers, “and we’re launching with a monumental campaign that matches the groundbreaking sound of the album itself. Guns N’ Roses fans have every reason to celebrate, for this is only the beginning.”
The All-American Rejects have just completed their video for the first single, “Gives You Hell,” from their forthcoming album, When The World Come Down. The Marc Webb (Fergie, Maroon 5, Miley Cyrus) directed video was shot in Los Angeles and features an “embarrassing underwear shot” of the band and an “evil Tyson neighbor”. Check it out:
