Is anybody else having trouble logging in to All Access? The login button simply won't work for me. I use Firefox, if that makes a difference. Yesterday, I did have to try a few times before it worked. Today was fine. I think their server just must be slow or having issues.

Very strange. Right-clicking the button shows that it isn't even considered as a link. Well, thanks anyway!

In other news, Oceania is the best rock album of the year. Welcome back to The Smashing Pumpkins.

Haha. :) I'd be more worried about Nicholas being absent since March.

Awesome new single from one of my all-time favorite bands Katatonia. This song kinda has a heavier/darker Tool vibe to it. I think a radio campaign is unlikely albeit possible, so I'll post it here and make a thread if it becomes appropriate.
Given the title, maybe they should have gotten Kim Benzie of Dead Letter Circus to guest vocal on it, especially given for the longest time Devin called DLC 'Dead Letters' on his weekly countdown.

I messaged Nick on facebook and this is what he wanted me to share with you: "I would love to resume being an actively contributing member, but my family living situation and my physical rehabilitation have sidelined me from posting for the meantime. And I know Pulse is the least crucial music website I need to stay on top of because it's all archived. I wouldn't be contributing much anyway because it's been a losing game this year trying to stay on top of new music. Not being aware of it, LISTENING to it."

I wonder what happened when he talks about his physical rehabilitation. Hope he's alright.

He said he'd tell me more later, but I'm not sure how much more than that he wants posted on a public forum, yanno?

I had no better place to put this, but please anyone who likes Ra, donate to this. I pledged 20 bucks myself and several Tunelab members have also pledged their donations, and I wanted to get something going here. Sahaj has actually been on Tunelab the last couple of days getting feedback from us and just overall hanging out. I'd really like to see them succeed with this and they have only 8 days left to do it.

I've heard only positive things about it, which makes me now so damn eager to hear it since I loved Satellite. I'll probably hear it like a month from now. I'm so behind on music that I haven't even heard The Offspring's or Linkin Park's new albums yet. EDIT of my last sentence: I just made sure after writing that to listen to both albums and I am mighty impressed with both. I'm listening to the new Smile Empty Soul now.

This is probably not consistent with the Pulse Music Board rules, but this is one of those times in life when if it's breaking the rules, you don't care and you know it's the right thing to do. This past weekend one of my best friends Ugonna Igweatu who I affectionately called "Iggy" spent the weekend at my house and recorded the last song he wrote. We had a wonderful weekend together working on music and just hanging out the two of us and with my family. Hours after upon returning home, he died of an asthma attack, no more than 12 hours after he finished this song he recorded with me. He was a wonderful young 24 year old man who had so many creative ambitions and fought so hard for humanitarian causes such as teaching children in The Bronx in his community the value of volunteering and taking care of people in shelters and nursing homes and that the opportunity to help others makes you happy. Anyway, needless to say he was truly a good soul and on top of that one of the most hilarious people you could ever know. This song that I recorded of his over the weekend was featured on the frontpage of reddit.com yesterday and today and has amassed well over 100,000 plays in just over 24 hours and I wanted to share it with you guys. He was truly a talented man and an amazing friend whose life as an artist was just beginning. soundcloud.com/jamie-van-dyck/ugonnas-song-july-7th-8th-2012

Sorry about your friend. Life's really unfair sometimes.
The song is really good, it reminds me of John Mayer.

So sorry for you, Iggy's family, and everyone else who's lives he lived in. Thanks for this introduction, hope noone minds if I do a little sharing myself (what a beautiful song!).

Deeply sorry for your loss, Jamie. Iggy definitely sounded like a great person and it's a wonderful thing you're doing sharing his music with the world. Glad to see such a huge response.

Sorry about your loss, Jamie. Very sad to hear.
Now as far as something more on-topic. When on earth are we getting a new single from Neon Trees? "Everybody Talks" has already come and gone.

I'm rather surprised it's gotten as high as it has on CHR.

That's great news for two of the biggest markets in the country without Alternative stations for quite a long time. Now I wish they could put one here in Orlando (we only have an Active station here) and down in South Florida where they don't have either an Alternative or Active station.
