When you’re a kid it’s pretty standard for a gang to demand a picture of a naked woman to get into their club. If you have an older sister, odds are it’ll be one of her. It’s pretty similar for the Vice Singles Club, only we want naked pictures of anyone with a single out this week. So, for example, if you applied today, we’d be demanding a Bananarama lesbo sandpit adventure snap and a picture of Mika’s cock in a burger bun. Read more »

THE VIRGINS
“Hey Hey Girl”
Warner
The charming thing about the Virgins, or at least the song “Rich Girls” was they were a shitty guitar band trying to play R & B but failing in a dumb and glorious fashion. Then they re-recorded that song with some big shot producer who actually made them sound professional and ruined their schtick, which made them pretty rubbish. This is another song by them, which may have been good at some point, but now definitely isn’t. Basically if they hire me as their manager / guru I will make them shitty and glorious once more.

Easter rave for reborn Jesus zombie
Easter isn’t the sexiest of all the religious festivals. The eggs are cool, but other than Sufjan Stevens fans no-one over 14 actually wants or gets one. And as far as perks go, that’s it for Easter. It’s hardly Hanukkah’s eight days of gifts or Ramadan’s mega pre-date crash diet. Anyway, just as Norwich Union has swapped its saggy outmoded moniker for the hyper-global-fuck-fest-title of Aviva, Easter’s being rebranded (or reborn — perhaps a Jesus metaphor would have been better). This weekend, This Is Music and GASH! have come together to bring you an all-girl line-up Easter rave in Whitechapel. Read more »
The NME Awards 2009 was one big love-in
All journalists love to not enjoy award ceremonies because they think it makes them big-time 4real punk rockers. But they’re idiots who think that sex is playing into the hands of mattress companies. Last night was the 7,000th annual NME awards and if you like drugs and booze and music and models it was fun. The best bit was when everyone booed when Oasis won Best Band. HaHa.
The Big Pink
