After dropping a hilariously awesome video for ” Sleazy Remix 2.0 Get Sleazier ,” (chock full of drag queens and senior citizens lip syncing the dirty tune, obvs) you’d think she’d be beaming with pride — she’s officially the sleaziest (yet, still refined) lady in the world. Plus, if we were on our way to see Cirque du Soleil’s ” Michael Jackson , The Immortal” like Ke$ha was when she was snapped this past weekend, we’d have a little more pep in our step

Credit: Soft Swells Soft Swells are a band of New York expats turned proud Californians — they named the group after the ocean, after all — though the music’s more rugged than you’d expect from the City of Angels. On single “Every Little Thing,” Soft Swells channel the Technicolor guitar-pop of Summerteeth -era Wilco , balancing high-flying synthesizer parts against guitars straight from the garage and frontman Tim Williams’ borderline-twangy vocals. Guitarist Matt Welsh’s former band, Phonograph, spent some time touring with the long-lived Chicago group, so it’s no surprise the elder act rubbed off — Williams, too, sounds more Midwestern than Brooklyn-bred.

Miley Cyrus covered Bob Dylan ‘s “You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go,” and, people, do not laugh as I am completely serious when I muster all of my renown and critical authority (and put my rock-solid reputation as a SERIOUS MUSIC WRITER on the line here) to declare that Miley’s cover should absolutely be taken seriously. Miley’s cover is part of the Bob Dylan compilation Chimes of Freedom: The Songs of Bob Dylan  Honoring 50 Years of Amnesty International , a four-disc collection that honors Amnesty International’s 50th anniversary and pays tribute to Bob Dylan, featuring artists like Ke$ha (who covered “Don’t Think Twice It’s Alright” ), Adele, Pete Townshend, The Airborne Toxic Event and more.

Credit: Splash News This photo of Katy Perry promoting her fragrance Purr in Manila, Philippines over the weekend warms my cold, shriveled heart for so many reasons! Allow me to explain. First of all, GOOOOOO, Team Katy! We’re so, so pumped that Katy is picking herself up by the boot straps (or eerie printed ballerina dress) after the announcement of her separation from her husband Russell Brand . She’s getting right back to work which always helps with heartbreak (says Dr.

Punk’s not dead; it just got super-obsessed with Instagram. Ontario quintet Silverstein ‘s hard-hitting new single “Brookfield” comes along with footage vignetted and faded like your favorite filters, though the band’s cool underwater shots look like actual Super 8 film. When he’s not taking a dip, singer Shane Told is marching intently through the streets of his hometown as electric guitars blast, singing about memories that seem anything but sepia-toned: “I’m sick of telling secrets/To people who don’t care enough to know/Why I’m so scared,” he sings

Let’s say it’s been a long day: You’re exhausted, you have a pounding headache and your roommate just ate your last Lean Cuisine. Basically, you’re completely effed.
