Gallery Music Life Beyond Screamo : Thrice
Last time we spoke with Thrice, they were nestled into Red Bull Studios, recording away and creating songs for their newest album, “Major/Minor.” The album came out just days ago and has already soared to #1 on the iTunes Alternative chart and nabbed the #7 spot overall. Thrice popped into Red Bull Studios to do a live session on Wednesday and performed tracks off the brand new disc. Following the show, the guys sat down with ChinaShop to chat about what’s next on the agenda. High tech gear thieves, cheesy roadside attractions, and spinning till nauseous while shooting a music video were also discussed.

Music Phew… Tokyo Police Club Finishes 10 Covers Songs in 10 Days (From the past 10 Years), Vacation Ensues
Tokyo Police Club have just finished a marathon. Well, not literally. They did not run 26.2 miles but what they did do was successfully record 10 covers songs in 10 days (from the past 10 years). Quite a project if you can imagine the amount of work that goes into learning each song, re-creating it in your own manner, getting stuff to sound good, getting good takes, mixing, mastering… To put it plainly, these guys have just completed “the impossible.” If you ask me, TPC, the engineers at Red Bull Studios and everyone involved with the project deserves a vacation, or at least a couple days to basque in the glory of their achievement.
If you’ve been following along here on ChinaShop, you know that we’ve been with them each step of the journey, sharing the fruits of their labor with you each day at 10 am. And now that the ride is over and the journey complete, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy all 10 songs in one place, along with some ChinaShop exclusive pix of the boys in and around the studio working hard, and blowing off some much needed steam.

Music TPC Takeover: 03 – The Strokes – “Under Control”
Next up in the 3 slot is a little ditty by The Strokes called “Under Control.”
“2003 is The Strokes’ “Under Control” which is just the best understated Strokes song. I love that song. It’s so simple. The thing with that song is we thought it might be too straight up if we just played it as is. We got kind of a little bit of a I don’t know what you call it, it’s not reggae it’s like dubby – some sort of another groove going for it.” – David Monks of TPC
