Darn, these features are good

Erin McAuliffe and Jack Riedy | Thursday, April 20, 2017

Kendrick Lamar has an iconic discography — so iconic that it somehow manages to stay unmarred by his shaky collaboration history. Taylor Swift, Adam Levine, Robin Thicke and Imagine Dragons all successfully recruited him for their tracks — we couldn’t have composed a more unfortunate list if we tried. However, on “DAMN.” Lamar has total

Kelly McGarry, Adrian Mark Lore, Erin McAuliffe and Jimmy Kemper | Saturday, March 25, 2017

Four years in review

Erin McAuliffe | Friday, May 13, 2016

  The Class of 2016 walked onto campus on Aug. 19, 2012 with “Call Me Maybe” still ringing in their ears — the result of both tear-filled parent drop-offs and Carly Rae Jepsen’s summer single. From 2012’s countless car karaokes and parodies to Jepsen’s 2015 perfect pop album “E*MO*TION”, the Class of 2016 has matured

BØRNS was Good, Joe Hertler & The Rainbow Seekers were Great

Adam Ramos | Sunday, April 3, 2016

Garret Borns makes good pop music. I know it, Tay knows it and over 100 million Spotify users will attest to it. BØRNS, the moniker used by the Michigan native to propagate his good pop music, brought his talent and band to Legends last Thursday night and played his good pop songs for everyone at

Love in the landfill

Christopher Damian | Thursday, November 19, 2015

My education at Notre Dame focused significantly on the ancient and medieval world. More than fifty of my 132 credits were on languages, cultures and ideas prior to the modern era, and these classes shaped the way I viewed my own life. I suspect the ways in which I lived and spoke were countercultural, not

Scene Takes On: Taylor Swift

Greg Hadley | Tuesday, November 10, 2015

Taylor Swift is the biggest female pop star on the planet. There. I said it. It sounds weird to say it aloud, but it’s true. And it’s true because of her insanely large, insanely passionate fan base. “Swifties,” as Taylor’s fans are known, were once limited to a very strict demographic of younger girls who related to the emotional

BØRNS impresses with debut “Dopamine”

Adam Ramos | Thursday, October 29, 2015

Within the past two years, Los Angeles-based musician Garrett Borns has been on the rise. After the release of last year’s LP “Candy,” Borns — affectionately, “BØRNS” — began garnering attention for his ethereal blend of psychedelic and electro-glam pop. The Michigan native takes his name from the Danish word for children, an appropriate moniker. With the

Father John Misty Covers Taylor Swift … Sort of

Jimmy Kemper | Thursday, October 1, 2015

Father John Misty, the musical persona of Josh Tillman, is continually proving he is one of the most bizarre anti-pop stars around. In between releasing one of the best albums of the year, filming music videos where he seduces himself and making The Late Show with David Letterman’s audience laugh uncomfortably, the former Fleet Foxes

Pop, meet indie rock: a think piece

Matthew Munhall | Monday, September 28, 2015

Last week, Ryan Adams released an album-length cover of Taylor Swift’s “1989.” The alt-country singer refashioned every song from Swift’s blockbuster pop album in the style of Bruce Springsteen’s “Nebraska,” in the process revealing a melancholic strain in the originals. The album is maybe not as revelatory as some critics are claiming, but it’s pleasant

The next music group biopic is …

Miko Malabute, Kathy Minko, Adam Ramos and Matthew Munhall | Thursday, August 27, 2015

With N.W.A.’s biopic, “Straight Outta Compton,” still fresh on moviegoers’ minds, the Scene staff brainstormed: Which music group deserves the next biopic? Which artist has a story so interesting and wildly unbelievable on their way to the top that the only way to believe it is to, well, see it. And see it on the

Senior Carolina Robledo explains Las Posadas as "a commemoration of the walk of Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem to find a place for Jesus to stay." The participants sang back and forth hymns with members of Duncan, Keough and O'Neill Halls as they travelled from dorm to dorm, commemorating Joseph and Mary's search for shelter.
