- Ray LaMontagne
At first, Ray LaMontagne might strike you as just another breathy-voiced knockoff of folk/rock guitarists like John Mayer and Jack Johnson. But he's actually got a better voice than either, he tell
- Goldfrapp
On their latest CD, Supernature, Goldfrapp has put together a successful mix of 1980-era New Romanticism, German cabaret, and T. Rex glam that leaves you riveted even through the album's lulls. It's a great amalgam that sounds current without sounding at all dated.
- Congo Norvell
Very few albums manage to capture snapshots of a quality of life in the manner that Congo Norvell's sophomore record, "Abnormals Anonymous," does.

AT&T Servers Down Due to Volume, Activation Process Stalled
Thursday, July 10th, 2008 at 4:00 PM - by Bryan Chaffin & Jeff Gamet
AT&Ts backend servers havent been able to keep up with demand, according to Apple Store employees at the Flatiron Crossing Apple Store in Broomfield, CO. While iTunes itself is up and running, customers on hand to buy an iPhone have been told by Apple employees that the AT&T-controlled activation part of iTunes has apparently crashed, preventing the activation process from completing.
The result has been a stalled selling process so far, but Apple is letting those customers who were able to buy their iPhones take them home for the final step in activation when the servers are back up and running. As we were compiling this story, however, the rest of AT&Ts backend went down, prohibiting even the selling process from taking place.
In the first two hours and twenty minutes, only about 20 iPhone 3G units had been sold at the Flatiron Crossing location, according to our observations.
Neither AT&T nor Apples PR folks have returned our requests for comment and more information.
