I've been a fan of the sub-genre of InfoGraphics, the period table of whatever, for a while now. This awesome collection page at Unneccesary Umlaut collects some of the very best. You'll find periodic tables of swearing, beer styles, video game controllers and other trivalities... No music though, which is why my jaw nearly dropped...

Done right, in Infographic form, this clever chart plucked from graphjam.com, features this month's Relix cover boy DJ Lance Rock, the...

From the snark-drenched panning of Ghostland Observatory's Codename: Rondo (1.5) to a number of 10.0's (...

We do this because we unabashedly love these bands, though not at the expense of all other music. It seems, however, that fans of jambands can't get a break when it comes to respectability amongst...

This offering is more of a beautiful, lyrical poster than a true InfoGraphic. But, the time is right to share, given our promise to focus on Talking Heads related content until the first of the year.Conceived and illustrated by artist TheCharles (and discovered via the seemingly boundless DeviantART website), I particularly love the color...

According to this graph from NPR's website, an analysis of the Top 100 Hits of 2010, Rock music accounts for 8% of the selections.Further, the article goes on to state that nearly 1 in 10 songs has a Dr. Luke credit, somebody who I'd NEVER EVEN HEARD OF before reading this article. Over twenty-five percent of this...

Keith Richards turns 67 today amidst all sorts of buzz about his tell-all autobiography. We feel compelled to celebrate in InfoGraphic form.
