Music News for YOU!




This week Nine Inch Nails announced that David Lynch is directing the video for their latest single, "Came Back Haunted" off of their forthcoming new album, Hesitation Marks. The last time the two guys worked together was when they teamed up for 1997's Lost Highway soundtrack.

Who's excited to see this collaboration?!

 
 

 








  












 
 
 
 
 
A new single from M.I.A  "Bring the Noize" was finally released on Monday!
Interscope is still playing the waiting game with no news of a possible release date for her new album, Matangi which has been shelved for months but you can download "Bring the Noize" for free dollars!
 
I can hardly wait for the rest of the new album to be brought, can you?!

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Two major announcements from a couple oldies but goodies doing new things this day and age: Pink Floyd is now on Spotify and The Rolling Stones catalogue is now on iTunes!  





 

 

 
It doesn't feel like it's been 20 years since Liz Phair's gritty sexy post-punk garage girl rock album Exile in Guyville started a musical revelation does it?  Saturday June 21st marked the 20th year anniversary of the release of Guyville and whether you like where Phair's sound  has gone since then there is no denying  that it is an effing solid timeless album: then, now and for the next twenty (+) years.
 
 
 
Our ears thank you Liz!! 




 
 
 
 
Some unusual suspects have jumped on the Daft Punk Random Access Memories fan bandwagon: On Thursday night The Roots, or rather "The Black Simon and Garfunkel" threw down their rendition of "Get Lucky"on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and  indie/country/folkie rockers Wilco performed their version of the same song on Friday.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 














Bad girl Courtney Love granted bad-ass Jay-Z permission to use lyrics from Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit".
Apparently,  Mr. Rap Mogul used the lyrics in his forthcoming album Magna Carta Holy Grail (due out on the 4th of July) without asking. When Mrs. Cobain got the news of this usage she gave the go ahead. I'm gonna guess that Francis Bean will not be the only one upset about this...





Z and Love are currently on their own, separate tours.
