  • ​The Kills Gennemrusker Rockmusklerne I VEGA
    2016-03-22 10:00 CET The Kills gennemrusker rockmusklerne i VEGA VEGA Beatbox Entertainment præsenterer The Kills gennemrusker rockmusklerne i VEGA Tirsdag den 9. august spiller The Kills alle rester af sommerferien ud af din krop, når deres indierock fylder Store VEGA. De to indierockere, Alison Mosshart og Jamie Hince, dannede The Kills tilbage i 2001. 15 år senere, og med fire albums i bagagen samt et femte på trapperne, gæster rockduoen Store Vega. Det femte albumudspil bliver udgivet d. 3. juni i år og har fået titlen Ash & Ice, hvoraf førstesinglen ”Doing It To Death” viser The Kills fra deres bedste side med rå guitar og krattende garagelyd. Mossharts rockede sidespring Duoens forrige album, Blood Pressures, udkom tilbage i 2011. Fra da af og frem til nu har Mosshart haft travlt med sit sidespring som forsanger for Jack Whites rockede bluesprojekt The Dead Weather, så det bliver et kærkomment gensyn at opleve de to rockstjerner sammen på scenen igen. Alison Mosshart er kendt for at svinge sit lange (før sorte, nu blonde) hår i takt med Hinces insisterende guitarriffs. Nu, efter to albums med The Dead Weather, har den 37-årige amerikaner fundet frem til en vokal med mere volumen, end tiden før Jack White-projektet bød på. Med hits som ”U.R.A. Fever”, ”Midnight Boom” og ”Cheap and Cheerfull” kan publikum forvente en energiudladning af formater fra de to über cool bandmedlemmer i The Kills, når de efter hele 8 års fravær gæster Store Vega til sommer. Fakta om koncerten: The Kills Tirsdag den 9. august kl.

    The Scarlet & Black Horoscope: August 30, 2019 Unreliable Notes: Move-in day! By Noa Goldman `22 [email protected] An Unsolicited Opinion: On vaccine exemptions By Katherine Moody [email protected] At 3 p.m. on April 24, 2019, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued a media statement reporting 695 cases of measles in 22 states. This is the highest number of cases in the United States since the disease was eliminated from the country in 2000. Measles has no known reservoirs in the United States; outbreaks occur when an infected traveler transmits the disease from abroad. Three large outbreaks – two in New York and one in Washington State – are responsible for the record high. Because measles is a highly-contagious disease, outbreaks typically appear in clusters and occur in population groups with low vaccination levels. Both the New York and Washington State outbreaks are examples of this phenomenon. When individuals refuse to get vaccinated or to vaccinate their children, they jeopardize not only their own safety and health, but also that of their communities. Babies cannot receive the first dose of the Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR) vaccine until they are 12 months old, nor can they receive the second dose until they are at least four years old. Not everyone can receive the vaccination. Many individuals have health conditions, such as cancer, that suppress their immune systems and prevent them from being vaccinated. In a society with a high vaccination rate, herd immunity protects those who can’t be vaccinated. Herd immunity defends the population because disease cannot spread if enough people are vaccinated.

  • Rock in Rio Terá the Kills No Palco Sunset
    Rock in Rio terá The Kills no Palco Sunset Dupla queridinha da cena Indie toca no dia 21 de setembro. Convidado será anunciado em breve The Kills, dupla formada pela norte-americana Alisson Mosshart (vocais e guitarra) e pelo britânico Jamie Hince (vocais, guitarra e bateria) está confirmada para o Palco Sunset do Rock in Rio. A apresentação será em 21 de setembro, mesmo dia em que o encontro entre Alice Cooper e Arthur Brown fecha o palco. O artista convidado para dividir o show com o The Kills será anunciado em breve. Conhecidos por suas estonteantes apresentações ao vivo, o The Kills mistura o estilo Garage Rock com o Blues. Com cinco álbuns gravados até hoje, esta é a primeira vez da banda – adorada no cenário indie – no festival. Donos de uma energia contagiante, o The Kills consolida sua presença em qualquer palco e envolve o público de forma marcante. Sobre o The Kills Alisson Mosshart e Jamie Hince formam o The Kills, banda que mistura o estilo lo-fi com Garage Rock e Blues. Conhecida por eletrizantes atuações ao vivo, a banda ganhou nome no início dos anos 2000 e já lançou cinco álbuns – “Blood Pressures” (2011) se tornou um dos queridinhos da cena indie. Ash & Ice (2016) é o mais recente disco da dupla, que definiu a produção do "Siberian Nights", vídeo sobre o álbum, como “uma cena selvagem de movimentos, dentes rosnando e olhos bonitos. É estranho e lindo, bom e mau, e impactante”. Sobre o Rock in Rio O Rock in Rio é o maior evento de música e entretenimento do mundo.
