About Handsome Devil
Originally formed in the spring of 2000, pop-punksters Handsome Devil consists of members Danny Walker (vocals, guitar), Billie Stevens (guitar), Keith Morgan (drums), and Darren Roberts (bass). Hailing from Orange County, CA (the same place that spawned Lit, No Doubt, and Social Distortion), Handsome Devil is quite musically comparable to their regional forefathers, as they list such diverse artists as the Clash, Ozzy, the Beatles, the Descendents, and Elvis Costello as important influences who helped shape their sound. The group signed to Lit's Dirty Martini label shortly after forming, and they hit the road opening for such bands as Zebrahead and Sprung Monkey. Handsome Devil's debut release, Love & Kisses From the Underground, was issued in September of 2001. ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide

Love Lockdown KanYe West |
| KanYe West keeps on challenging the limits of hip-hop: if "Graduation" was his pop album, the first single from "808s and Heartaches" sees the star going all soulful and expanding the most spiritual side of former highlights such as "Jesus Walk" or "Can't Tell me Nothing". Arguably the first interactive recording ever made, thanks to the KanYe's official blog; when the original mix was posted, many fans reacted sending an avalanche of negative feedback; maybe it was the use of popular pitch-altering software autotune, abused in recent times by everyone from Cher to T-Pain, that led the audience to revolt and ended up with the notorious perfectionist re-recording the vocals and adding some taiko drums to highlight its minimal beat, imitating a heart pounding; posting it again afterwards for general approval. Not happy with that, he later went the Radiohead way, making six different stems (vocals, drums, piano, etc.) available for fans to remix the song themselves. "Love Lockdown" can be seen as West upgrading himself from rapper to proper soul singer and is one of his more inspired and powerful moments to date. A mind-blowing closing performance at this year's VMAs ignited a chart frenzy all over the world and it looks set to last for a few months. | |
