Back with its 11th edition, FME, held at the end of summer between August 29th and September 1st, is a festival in Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec, that you don't want to miss (read our re-cap of FME 2012 

Bam!Bam! | Golden Haze 2 [EXCLUSIVE PREMIERE]

Bam!Bam! is the Bay Area duo of Zola and Chloe and they're not your average guitar/drums duo. They don't pretend to be siblings, they don't pretend to be the band that pretended to be siblings, and they're not about to win any MTV awards or get into bed with a Korean phone/television company. Their latest video for "Golden Haze 2" comes wailing in like a lost, female-fronted Calvin Johnson gem, and ION has its premiere. 

D.L. Eyewear

Former MTV Canada personality, Dan Levy, is a well-dressed Canadian style icon. Known especially for his charm and thick-rimmed glasses, Levy—son of actor, Eugene Levy, another man that wear's spectacles well—has launched his own eyewear line, D.L. Eyewear

Malcolm Brickhouse (electric guitar) and Jarad Dawkins (drums—which by the way, mastered the instrument by the age of two) formed their first band, Tears of Blood in 2007.

Sofia Coppola | The Bling Ring [RECAP]

Before watching this film, I didn't do any research or look into the story of the real events it was based off of. I remember a few years back hearing about the Audrina Patridge burglary and seeing the footage from her security camera that she had posted, but that was about it. I actually never heard of the "Hollywood Hills Burglar Bunch," nor paid much attention to the celebrity victims.
