• Eminem, Outkast, Kings of Leon among Official Headliners at Lollapalooza

    Remember those reports about a possible Lollapalooza lineup leak last week? It turns out they were exactly correct. Eminem, Kings of Leon, the Arctic Monkeys and Skrillex will be among the headlining acts at the 2014 variant of the Chicago music festival. The event released its official schedule Wednesday morning.

  • Music Times' Top 10 Albums of 2013

    As with any other group conversation between the writers of Music Times, the debate between what albums to include on the site's Top 10 of the year was less than professional. There was crying (Ryan Book), yelling (Nicole Oran), and even threats of violence (Caitlin Carter). Ultimately, after countless votes and demands for recounts, ten finalists were chosen. Check out the albums that we kept in the stereo throughout 2013, along with defenses from the staff writers that loved the most.

  • Caitlin Carter's Playlist of 2013: Eminem, Paul McCartney, and Rich Homie Quan

    Music Times, like so many other music publications, was looking to publish a "Best of 2013" playlist. We met to discuss what such a playlist should include, and that's where we ran into trouble. We couldn't agree. Sometimes two of us just couldn't agree on whether the performer was amazing or terrible, and even when we agreed they were amazing, we couldn't agree on what track was most representative of their work. Hence it was decided that rather than try to agree (a seemingly impossible endeavor), everyone would get their own "favorites of 2013" playlist. We won't argue that these are neccesarily the best tracks of the last year, but they're definitely songs that caught our respective attention and caused us to hit 'repeat" over and over and over again

  • Review: Arctic Monkeys' New B-Side 'You're So Dark'

    Arctic Monkeys have done quite well in 2013, releasing the stellar and dark album "AM," featuring twists, turns and deep croons unlike anything previously heard from the English alt-rockers. Yesterday (Dec. 5), the Brits kept on their "AM" music journey by releasing "You're So Dark," the B-side to new single "One For The Road."

  • Arctic Monkeys, Queens of The Stone Age, and Kanye West Vie for NME's Best Album of 2013

    We've already spread the word on what two of the biggest names in music media, Rolling Stone and SPIN, have been listening to during 2013. But what about our friends across the pond? NME has joined in the end of the year fun, releasing its own list of the Top 50 albums of the year. The bad news is that you have to buy the issue to get the full list (looks like those Brits are trying to generate a profit, something the rest of us music media types have given up on), but they were kind enough to share their Top 3 to the general public.
