“It’s tough not having more people to relate to you as a women.”
– Karen O
The Yeah, Yeah, Yeahs have just released Show Your Bones, the follow up to their hugely successful 2003 album Fever to Tell. Born out of the New York garage scene, the single “Maps” put them on the map and they havent looked back since. I caught up with the incredible Karen O before the band embarked on their latest tour.

“On my radio show I just play what I want. With my band I just do what I want. On the talk show I just want to talk about what I want. Isn’t that what the whole idea is, live and uncut.”
– Henry Rollins
A lot of people out there think that it’s not a good idea for these ranting and raving pundit types to have their own TV shows. Well now we’ve got our very own incensed host on TV, Henry Rollins with the aptly named Henry Rollins Show. For those who may not know of Henry, both of you, Rollins cuts an imposing figure in the hardest of rock concerts as a seminal member of Black Flag and founder of Rollins Band. A man covered in as many famous tattoos might seem an unlikely candidate for a talk show until you hear Rollins speak. Whatever comes out of his mouth is the truth. Rollins is an astonishingly well read man who is at just as much at home acting alongside Al Pacino as he is vomiting in a Siberian train bathroom.

“Why wouldnt I want to play music until I was 80?” – Exene Cervenka
Exene Cervenka is the gold standard for what all punk rock musicians should be. She is uncompromising, self deprecating and a real renaissance woman. She of course came to fame in the 1970s with the seminal punk band X. Since then Exene has had numerous other bands and her latest, Exene Cervenka & Original Sinners, has just released their second album titled Sev7en. It features Jason Edge and members of the band The 7 Shot Screamers.
