• In the Guns N' Roses-Dr Pepper Feud, Everyone's a Winner, Right?

  Two weeks ago Plano-based Dr Pepper Snapple Group reported a third-quarter drop; right, who didn't? Said Sgt. Pepper Larry Young on November 13, "Without a doubt, this is one of the toughest environments the beverage industry has faced in many years. With disposable incomes falling, consumers are thinking harder about what they buy." And, only a few months divorced from Cadbury, Dr Pepper on Wednesday filed a notice with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it's looking to raise a little

• Top 10 Metal Albums of 2008

  In a year worthy of your rage, metal delivered in spades. What with the economy circling the drain and Sarah Palin coming down from the tundra and then refusing to go back, 2008's been the kind of year that really makes you want to smash your head into walls or punch random strangers in the face. Good thing there were so many awesome records available to serve as a soundtrack for exactly that kind of behavior. The ten discs below are just the tip of a very big, very heavy iceberg. Metal seems

• Hitsville: The Year in Music, by the Numbers

  You don't need a half-wit music critic to tell you it's been a remarkable year for America, one historians will be discussing and researching for centuries to come. War, financial collapse, politics, technology: All have been dinner-table topics for many Americans. Racial barriers in 2008 were demolished by a Midwestern black man, and gender barriers were hurdled by an Arkansan and an Alaskan.Democracy has a few awesome new dance moves rolling into the Obama presidency, and it'll be a feast f

• Today In Music News: Zooey Deschanel's Engaged, Axl's Touring, Bands Need Beds and Jay-Z Got A Problem

  Your daily dose of national music news for Tuesday, December 30, 2008... My life is over. Yes, it's over. The indie powerhouses known as Zooey Dechannel (She & Him) and Ben Gibbard (Death Cab For Cutie) are apparently (read: allegedly) engaged. He apparently popped the question on Christmas. The most wonderful time of the year my ass. I loved you Zooey!  It seems the boys in "Guns N Roses" are going to tour for at least two years. Maybe. And it may start in March. We'll see.

• Today in Music News: Axl Speaks! Rihanna No-Shows! Blink Reunites!

  Your daily dose of national music news for Monday, February 9, 2009... Axl Rose says the lack of press he did had nothing to do with why Chinese Democracy didn't sell big, it's the lack of marketing by the label. Oh, and W. Axl Rose also stated that he will never, ever, under any circumstances, reunite with Slash. But, Izzy and Duff are good to go. Rihanna was supposed to appear on the Grammys last night. However, she pulled out because she was too busy getting as

• Today In Music News: The Cure Still Rock, Axl Still Blames Others, Dita Von Teese To Release Album, and Chris Brown and Rihanna Are Still Together

  Your daily dose of national music news for Monday, March 2, 2009... Proof that dudes who wear eyeliner and don't go out during the day can be, like, totally awesome: The Cure are NME's newest recipients of the "Godlike Genius" Award.  Surprise! W. Axl Rose hates Slash and blames everyone else for the time it took to release the Use Your Illusions albums and Chinese Democracy.  There's a lot to love about Dita Von Teese, but for me, it's mostly her looks. Still, she's decided that she

Unlike everyone else who saw him run into a stage prop at the Tony Awards, Bret Michaels is not happy about what happened--and he feels that the award show and host Neil Patrick Harris didn't take his injury seriously. Hard to feel bad for a guy who picks up skanks on national TV, though... Axl Rose fired and rehired his manager three times last month. It seems he wasn't happy with his manager was trying to "re-prom

• Girl Drink Drunk: Family Karaoke

  Seriously, no idea who that is. Really.First of all, I realize some people don't like karaoke, that it ain't their thing and they'd prefer to sit there and just watch the fun. That's cool. But just trust that at Family Karaoke -- where parties of up to 25 can reserve private sound-proofed rooms with wait-service who bring pitchers of beer, carafes of neon goodness and ample Jell-O shots, as well as tasty pub grub and Korean nosh--the power of the mic will compel you.

Either way, this week on City of Ate, we celebrate the folks who get it done the easy way.The Week in Review(s): Your own Dallas Observer: Masaryk leaves Dave with the impression of a place that's gotten good at a "mod-Mex" move, and is doing it over a

  Your daily dose of national music news for Wednesday, August 19, 2009...The tracklist for Rock Band: Beatles has been revealed. However, one song not on that list will be in the game Care to guess which? Denton-born funk recluse Sly Stone is allegedly living off of social security benefits and living in cheap hotels, according to a Dutch documentary. Maybe this should be a lesson to Axl Rose: Don't come out of the house... or piss off your manager.Lil Wayne was forced to cancel some dates in Can
