Pub (Đorđe Balašević album)
Pub (trans. Jack) is the first solo album released by Serbian and former Yugoslav singer-songwriter Đorđe Balašević. The album was produced by Josip Boček, who also played guitar on the album.
The album featured the hits "Ratnik paorskog srca" which tells of a peasant who returns from World War I and who "wasn't made to be a soldier", "Za sve je kriv Toma Sojer" which tells of three boys which ran away from home influenced by The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, "Boža zvani Pub" which tells of a legendary gambler nicknamed Pub (Jack), the ballad "Lepa protina kći". The song "Pesma o jednom petlu" went on to become one of Balašević's signature pieces. It tells a story of an old man's younger days in the farm-rich area of Vojvodina when he had a pet rooster. The rooster is widely assumed to be a metaphor for his male sexual organ for which female birds tend to go crazy. The lyrics go on to list different kinds of female birds which in turn depict stereotypical characteristics of women in Serbo-Croatian slang. The refrain line "Princip je isti, sve su ostalo nijanse" ("The principle is the same, everything else is nuances") is referring to the way of courting the opposite sex. The lyrics conclude in the man's later years as he misses the good times gone by and giving advice never to make your rooster suffer, to let him fly around so that female birds can see him, for afterwards it will be too late, because even roosters have a life span.

PUB (Stockholm)
PUB is one of the major department stores in Stockholm, Sweden, located in two buildings at Hötorget, Stockholm city center. PUB was opened in 1882 and rapidly expanded. The name PUB is for the initials of Paul Urbanus Bergström, the founder of the store, who owned a great deal of buildings and business in the area.
In the late 20th century, the upper 4 storeys of the department store were converted into a hotel: the Rica Hotel Kungsgatan, later the Scandic Hotel Kungsgatan. In 2015, plans were announced to close the last remaining portion of the store and convert the entire building to the Scandic Hotel Haymarket.
Trivia
Blackout (Linkin Park song)
"Blackout" is a promotional single by American rock band Linkin Park. It is the ninth track from their 2010 album, A Thousand Suns. The song was written by the band and produced by co-lead vocalist Mike Shinoda and Rick Rubin.
Despite the lack of metal elements, the song does contain significant amounts of screaming (the choruses comprise solely of it), making for one of the more coarse-sounding songs on A Thousand Suns.
Promotion
On August 18, 2010, Linkin Park posted a "Linkin Park TV" episode showing Chester Bennington doing freestyle vocals over the song. The remix by Renholdër was also used in Underworld: Awakening. A live version of the promotional single was used for the B-side of the single Burning in the Skies by the band in the same album.
The song was debuted for the live, alongside the single "Burning in the Skies", in Australia in late 2010. It featured sampled vocals from Bennington, for the bridge. The song was played in many concerts for the A Thousand Suns World Tour and in some concerts for the promotion of Living Things.

Overview

On August 22, another single was released from Blackout, entitled "Monuments Fail".
On September 9, Yahoo! Music released a music video for another new single, "Fire!", on their site. Regarding the music video, guitarist Brett Wondrak commented:
"Our excitement about releasing this music video has been burning us up inside. We really wanted to turn up the heat on what is expected in music videos today. It will light a new fire in the hearts of our fans and definitely will not go up in smoke to people who are just discovering us. We believe it will ignite our careers."
When asked about the album, singer Dennis Tvrdik commented:
"We are still a relatively small band in a very big metal world and we hope to change that with this album. Blackout is a bit darker than our previous albums, and I think it’s time for heavy music with melodies to make its presence known in American metal culture. I am proud to be a part of that."
