While they are not touring the U.S. anytime soon, NYC was the host to Hercules & Love Affair’s first show ever. Antony was not there, but the pics at Brooklynvegan look really fun. Nomi and Kim sung Antony’s parts, Andy Butler looks sweaty and hot and I’m sure the live instrumentation made this one hell [...]

It is safe to say that no one has gotten more queer visibility among heavy metal fans than Rob Halford and his veteran metal band Judas Priest. To say nothing of his status as a supreme leather daddy, Halford, you can’t knock a guy that has a 4.5 octave vocal range and came out in [...]

All of you, listen UP! DV8 Physical Theatre have announced their 2008 tour in support of their new show, “To Be Straight With You.” According to the press release, it is a “poetic but unflinching exploration of tolerance, intolerance, religion and sexuality.” Doesn’t that sound really, um, cliché and uninteresting?

Taking their name from the Yiddish word for “shame” or “disgrace,” Brooklyn based The Shondes build a sound based in a love for early Sleater-Kinney and the need to incorporate strings.
