    The Twilight SagaThe Twilight Saga

    The Twilight Saga films are an amazing work of art that have thrilled movie going audiences the world over, grossing more than a billion dollars. The author of the book series, Stephanie Meyer, used music from indie rock bands as inspiration in her writing. Therefore, it isn't surprising that the soundtracks to the Twilight Saga films are filled with love inspired indie rock anthems that compliment subjects used throughout the movies. A common theme among the music videos is the inclusion of footage from the films that add drama and intensity to the viewing experience. The fourth soundtrack, Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn, was released November 7. Let's take a journey back and check out the music videos that give life to the Twilight Saga sonically.

    Then & Now - featuring Jane's Addiction

    Jane's Addiction were one of the most hotly pursued rock bands when they gained notice in Los Angeles in the mid-'80s. Flamboyant frontman Perry Farrell, formerly of the band Psi Com, had an undeniable charisma and an interest in provocative art (he designed the band's album covers). Jane's Addiction played a hybrid of rock music: metal with strains of punk, folk, and jazz. The quartet was originally comprised of Farrell, bassist Eric Avery, drummer Stephen Perkins, and guitarist Dave Navarro. The band's new album, The Great Escape Artist, will be released on Capitol Records October 18, 2011. Dave Sitek, whose production work includes groups such as TV on the Radio and Yeah Yeah Yeahs, plays bass on the new album. Let's take a journey back and check out their rockin' music videos.

  • Beastie Boys

    By | Then & Now – Tue, May 3, 2011 12:41 PM EDT

    The Beastie Boys are considered to be one of the most influential and ambitious groups of the '90s, cultivating a musical community not only through their music, but with their record label, Grand Royal, and their magazine of the same name. The group consists of Mike D (Mike Diamond), MCA (Adam Yauch), and Ad-Rock (Adam Horovitz).

    They returned to rap with Hot Sauce Committee, Pt. 1, parts of which were previewed during the band's performance at the 2009 Bonnaroo festival. The album ended up unreleased in the wake of Yauch's announcement that he had cancer. He underwent successful surgery and radiation treatment, and the band announced late in 2010 that Hot Sauce Committee, Pt. 2, including virtually all the material intended for the first volume, would be released in spring 2011.
