Idolator
I've received some 20-odd e-mails about those flyers and banner ads posing the all-caps query "WHERE DID ROCK N' ROLL GO?" over the past few weeks, so I figure I'm performing a public service by letting you all know that now, you can answer the question yourself on a brand-new blog. (According to the ID3 tags of the MP3 that is streaming from the site—usability warning!—a band named The Swindle Tourmaline (thanks Tim!) apparently has the answer.)

The band is called Tourmaline, "The Swindle" is an album they have that's coming out.
@tim_loves_cats: thanks! fixed. the song's not half-bad, as virally marketed tracks go.
Yeah, where did rock and roll go? I'm still waiting for the Hold Steady and the Drive-By Truckers and Boris to release albums this y- oh wait
Oh God. My eyes are falling out of my head from the rolling.
I dig these posters a lot more than the "moving? 20hr" ones, so I hope they keep it up. The song's pretty cool too.
